Recently assembled this item. Parts fit well together, instructions were clear. Bottom bowl chipped a little when tightening the legs down. A little touch-up paint for this would be nice. I used black epoxy appliance paint. Like the fact that it is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Grate and adjustable air vent are great features rarely found in units from other manufacturers.

I bought this to replace one we have had for like 8 to 10 years. It works well, but snow and ice could make this a early departure for you have no drain holes in the bottom for the snow, ice or water to leave when it enters.

I had a USA made model similar to this one years ago that I gave to my neighbor when I moved. Then, as now, I wanted a patio fire place that I could use the lid to cover the fire bowl and extinguish the fire instead of using water.
This Bessemer 28-inch Fire Sense was made in China and I immediately noticed the thickness/weight of the materials in comparison to my old unit. However, as some have already mentioned, the key to ease of use and longevity with the Fire Sense is to toss the thin, cheap grate, close the air vent and fill with sand to the grate ledge level inside the bowl.
This model uses a flimsy screen assembly that actually bolts to the bowl (in two places) for rigidity. I can see some folks having slight difficulties who want to use the screen but have the option to remove it and use the lid to extinguish the fire.
My advice would be to assemble the unit using the supplied hardware only hand tight, and then use tools to snug them all up. All in all, I'll rate this unit a 3 because of the flimsy screen and the fact that it has to be secured to the bowl for rigidity. As for the folks who whine about their "wheels catching on fire and melting", well, they didn't read the instructions that state "keep the vent closed when the fire bowl is in use".
For me, it's a decent outdoor porcelain fireplace at a decent price using sand in the bowl and no screen for easy extinguishing; and I don't have to worry about the wind blowing it away, either!

I bought this through Lowe's website and had it delivered to the store. It took about 60-90 minutes to assemble with no problems! Our family really enjoys sitting around the fire on cool nights!
