There are many steps to complete to assemble and thats ok. Unfortunately, none of the pieces offer orientation when assembly, and if a piece that is accidentally put on backwards and is not discovered until almost completion, theres no way to undo to correct.
For folks who are going to be assembling this in the future, make sure to orient the holes on the sides of the two c pieces to where the side will be flush with the top/bottom / also, btw, thats the BACK of the unit.
The two c pieces we had trouble with, and now there are holes along the front of the unit because it wasnt labeled as the front to begin with.
Now, in the dark, it is hard to tell, or so Im told (I know the holes are there and so my eyes are drawn to it). And in the dark, the lighting and flame effects are gorgeous.
Lucky if you can assemble correctly
