I love, love, love this fireplace. It is very sturdy and well built. Also heavy so be sure to build it in the room you plan to use it in. (we did). This went together easily if you have built flat pack furniture before. If not, you might get a little confused as the directions do not have any words, just pictures, but pretty basic flat pack put together. It took 2 people about 3 hours. It is exactly as described, perfect size for our small living room. Love the stone feature (not actual stone), the mantel is nice and heavy with a nice rich dark color making it look like a nice high quality furniture piece. This is a creamy white, not a bright white which I love. Fireplace is nice and will be great on those evenings when the room is a little chilly, also great ambiance when you don't want heat, you can turn off the heat. Looks exactly like pictured. It comes in 2 boxes three days apart. Amazon only gives one tracking number, but I contacted the seller when the first one arrived and not the second and they sent me both tracking numbers so I could know when to expect the second package.
