Most other comparable products I’ve found are closer or more than $1000. This product was relatively simple to set up, and I love how it looks on my balcony. It emits a bunch of heat, so I always use the glass rectangle around it.I’m really impressed with how warm it gets! I thought since it’s smaller, it wouldn’t be as hot, but I have to keep the fire low.Only downside is the cover it comes with. It’s not waterproof at all! Very cheap quality. I want to take care of this piece the best I can, so I bought a better outdoor cover for it.I get compliments on this piece all the time, and I love the blue glass it comes with. It’s great for marshmallows! However, it needs a different waterproof cover. Overall, great value for its price.
