The delivery was brilliant by TNT, but I was told he would call me and I would guide him Into my site as it is one way, he said they are not issued with phones.
The Malmo Suite with Elan Fire, looks nice when erected BUT. The person who put it together found the pre drilled holes did not line up, so he had to sort that out.
The Elan Brass fire, had stickers on the front, so peel them off to reveal Brass coloured front, !!!! Not Proper Brass, just brass stickers to make it look like a Brass front . Even the Metal parts on it, do not appear to be real Brass.
I couldn't buy one of the more expensive ones. This looks nice for now, but the surround is only MDF. I would have prefered it, if in the description it had stated that various parts were not actual brass. It is too much when it is unpacked to send it all back.
Compared with the one I have taken out which was a proper wooden surround and the fire had proper brass pieces,it is nowhere near as good quality. I needed a lighter coloured one, and it looks alright, but the quality is not brilliant. I will add that compared with ones in local DIY store it is okay, and the cheaper end of the market.
