We are loving this piece! It was easy to assemble and came shipped well. The only downfall (in my opinion), is the front surround comes in multiple pieces so you can see the break in pieces… I wish it was more seamless. I plan to add a filler and build it into the baseboard so it sit flush against the wall. I like that the fireplace can just be aesthetic without the heating element turned on. Love the ambiance. Don’t always need the heat to go with it.
