This mantle is perfect!! It’s actually better than the real mantle on my boyfriend’s actual fireplace. I’m so happy I ran across it to place over my electric fireplace as it pulls it together to make it look a lot better. After hanging it, it doesn’t wobble or tilt, it’s extremely sturdy and so far seems to hold a great deal of weight! The wood it’s made out of is a nice quality and the stain is applied well making the entire piece look very well done.
