First of all, i got this on a daily deal, so was over $100 below for what it normally lists as. Is an excellent piece of furniture. Am good at assembling this stuff and it still took me 2 hours. Directions are clear, everything is labled, none of it is difficult just tedious. Once assembled, it feels and looks sturdy. You will need a screwgun, directions say different but have one ready. Is really the only tool you will need, set it on the slowest speed though. It puts out a ton of heat and is quiet, the flame looks realistic, am impressed. Remote is simple to use and works well. The fire place part would be a pain in the butt to replace but is doable if needed. My 50" tv fits perfect, not sure how well a larger TV would look on it. All in all, am very pleased with my purchase and would whole heartedly recommend it to anyone looking for such a unit. Oh, one last thing, need a lot of room to assemble. Half the assembly process is preparing the pieces to be put together, so need space to lay them out. If you buy one, you will be pleased.
