Gallatin Faux Stone Electric Fireplace with Bookcases for a Cozy Home Environment

Wintersfrozen: Love this entertainment system. Fits perfect in the room. Comes in 4 peices in 3 boxes. The 2 book cases, the center console and the heater itself. I can not attest to heat function as I only use the light affect. It is shockingly easy to assemble with one person doing it it can he set up in a little over am hour. Personally drilled a few holes in the back of the bookshelf as it does not have anywhere for wires to go in and out of for appliances. Over all one of my favorite peices in my home. More then thrilled with the purchase.

James WalstonJames Walston: Looks incredible in person. Easy enough to put together, instructions were good enough, and it feels quite sturdy. It is however three separate pieces (fireplace mantle, 2 bookshelf ends) that aren't connected (they're just set up next to eachother); this might be useful if you want the fireplace and not the book shelves. Also, it's made of particle board, and not all the screws line up with their holes, so it's not as sturdy as possible, but it's not going to collapse either.

I still say buy it. Where else can you get a good looking fireplace for this price? It's a good budget option for a first apartment or if you want to make your room look classier.

learner I am: Wasn't too sure when we bought it. Compared to other furniture, fairly easy to assemble, but takes a while. LOOKS GREAT in our living room! And the fire looks very realistic, and kicks out a LOT of heat! Added in a little crackler(for the sound), and it almost looks real. Add in the fact that we also have a generator (in case of power outage), and it was a lot better investment (and safer!), than putting out $10K for a gas fireplace!! The only downside? One piece was missing (one of two brackets to secure the firebox). I simply cut another piece of scrap wood to replace it! Plus, it came in THREE boxes, but they only give you ONE tracking number!! And the boxes came on two different days!

Alexander: Ok I have been waiting on this product for like a year. Every time I see it pop up its always almost a $1k then it goes on sale like 40% off then boom gone. Well once I saw it on sale I didn't hesitate and bought it. Came in 3 different boxes. 1 for the electric fire place 1 for the center main shelf and the other one is for the two side pieces. Assembling the product is fairly easy. Adult legos pretty much. Much easier than IKEA furniture!! I saw a review on here where someone said it took them 10HRS to assemble. Which I thought was BS and I was right it was. I got mine done in under 2HRS.

Tips:
1.) All you need is a good screwdriver or drill or impact. I used a ratcheting screw driver which made my life easier.
2.) Do not open all the boxes up at once. Open one at a time then assemble the pieces till finish then open another one.
3.) You will have extra screws!! So don't worry or freak out.
4.) When your using the round twist lock screw to fasten the studs. Once you tighten all of them. Go back and double check the tightness. You will pull some of them in tighter.

Pros:
1.) Easy to assemble
2.) Very high quality
3.) Thick heavy material not...

Jarred: I don't like taking the time doing reviews, but this warrants one.
I was very skeptical buying this as other reviewers claimed 10 hours of assembly and more than one person to complete as well as being small. The size is easy to solve, look at the dimensions on the photos for reference before you buy. They're accurate.
The whole thing was a piece of cake to assemble and the instructions are more than adequate. The middle piece took about an hour or maybe just shy. Most of it was navigating the parts and hardware. The bookshelves take maybe 30 minutes each. Again the majority of the time is spent sorting the materials. If i had to build a second unit, i could probably do the whole thing in 1 hour. Also i did it by myself with hand tools. I did use a cordless driver for the bookshelf backing to speed up the process and i did not put a sticker on some holes. Its black, you cant see them anyways. Ill keep them and add them if needed. I am no construction wizard or anything like that either, but it has very similar hardware to Ikea furniture to which i am familiar. Its a great product, it looks great, feels sturdy, and well worth the sale price.
