I built a 12.5 circle from two kits around an existing 4 ft fire pit. I had enough left over to build a firewood platform, four small (18")circles and two 42" circles making a path to our garden and bird feeders. My wife has still got to come up with a use of the rest of the excess.

As somewhat of a novice, I would have liked more complete instructions. It turned out very good, but required some rework and additional time
CPChris P.Verified buyerWe searched multiple styles, manufacturers and price and the Fremont Fireplace Kit was clearly the Best Value. The kit came on time, very good quality with all pieces included. Instructions to assemble were laid out where each page of the instruction book showed the assembly of s single layer. Was extremely easy to follow and install. Very pleased with the final result.

awesome quick good looking
PDPaul D.Verified buyer My experience with Romanstone has been great from beginning to end. The fireplaces are affordable and beautiful. Purchase was easy and the service from the stone location (Paul) was fantastic. They kept me up to date on when my order would ship and who would handle once the material was in my area. Easy to read instructions make it very straightforward to assemble. Great company. Great service. Great product.

I’m completely satisfied with my Fremont kit. The pieces were delivered in good shape with plenty of glue. The finished fireplace looks great.

My wife gave me the green light to buy the kit. A friend and I, both in our 50's, put it together in a weekend. Instructions are easy to understand. Trust me when I say, if we could do it anyone can. We're car guys not masons or construction workers. I originally ordered 2 extra chimney extensions, but only added 2 courses. I think it looks perfect. I'm going to use the extra stone to build something else ... Thank you for a great kit!

Your staff called me repeatedly (3 times in a row) while I was working on video conference (COVID) and came off very unprofessional. I was then emailed by Paul to call them and ask for him, which I did once my conference wrapped as well as two additional times before the end of the day. Each time he was unavailable or the person that answered said they didn’t know where he was. So at this point I emailed them asking what questions he had so that I could avoid any additional delays. Shocking, but I didn’t receive a response. Not sure why phone takes priority over email. So I then cancelled my entire order, got a response on that one. Serves me right for not buying local and trusting some random company on the internet. Buy local, forget these clowns. Thanks for asking for a review, happy to share my experience.

Unbelievable! Looks incredible and such an easy/fun build. Directions couldn’t be better written! Took about a week...working a little bit at a time. Can’t wait for our first fire!

The purchase, delivery and build were all fluid and easy. The build (Princeton Fireplace, 2 standard wood boxes and 2 foot chimney extension) in total took around 9 hours. We did have to purchase some extra landscape adhesive but we made sure we used a decent amount as added insurance. The hardest part was getting the chimney cap 13 feet up in the air (fireplace base is 20” out of ground), I still don’t know how we managed that. We love the fireplace and get compliments from anyone who sees it. It was the perfect addition to our backyard build.

Chris, we have gone the extra mile in order to make our instruction plans as detailed as possible. Like anything, there is always room for improvement. We are so glad that you were able to work through the challenges and build your project to your satisfaction. If there was a particular part within the plan instructions that threw you, please feel free to let us know. We will be more than happy to review this and update our instructions so others do not stumble. I have to admit I have to ask my wife for directions every once in awhile. With this Party Pad kit, I know that building the paver circle kit first works best in helping to create a curved template for the block seat wall to fit around. Thanks for the order and I hope you get years of enjoyment from your new patio.
