Makes for a great focal point for backyard conversation and socializing in cool afternoons and nights. Parts were well protected, packed efficiently and well labeled. Assembly was straight forward with well written step by step instructions. Used my own tools rather than those provided and that saved some assembly time. I'd like to add that I am a T-3 paraplegic and use a wheelchair. I opened the box expecting to lay out the parts and see how much help I would need to assemble. Turned out I did 95% of the assembly myself with help from my wife to hold up a side while screwing together a panel and to flip it over when almost assembled. Once we got it together, friends were drawn to the flame (so to speak) and it instantly became a natural gathering place for coffee and conversation. The construction is sturdy and it feels like quality. The included cover fits perfectly. I couldn't be happier with my wife's purchase!
