The item seems of reasonable quality and has been used by me now for several weeks. I do have a potential hazard to report: The front legs are too far recessed towards the back causing the grate to tip over forward once a slightly heavier log is placed at the front. This is a serious design flaw and potential fire hazard that should be corrected by moving the front legs further towards the front.

I found that cast iron grates were a little more difficult to find locally, so I ordered the Panacea 24" 15424 model. It arrived quickly and packed fairly considering the weight of the item. The design of the grate is pretty standard for cast iron grates, with a fair amount of spacing between the bars to allow for ash to fall through. It's a fairly stable surface and it will wobble. If pushed or weighed down in the front it has a tendency to tip; however, this hardly ever happens as you load the entire grate with wood. It only happened to me when I was actually pushing on the front while cleaning out of my fireplace, so it's not really a concern. Overall, this Panacea product has good quality and delivers exactly what you expect from the product.

EDIT 11/12/11: While I initially really liked this grate, it failed too quickly like the many grates before it. Guess I'll go back to a different type. We burn wood 5-7 days of the week during the winter and toward the end of last season this grate started coming apart.

Honest reviews on Panacea 15424 Cast Iron Fire Grate, Black, 24-Inch

The price was in-line with others I had looked at, so I bought it. It arrived on time, and looked great. During my first fire, I heard a HUGE pop from the fireplace. After the fire died down, I investigated. The thing cracked. I'm not talking about a hairline crack, but a full break in the back part of the grate. I might be able to use it again, but will definately have to buy another grate for next year's fire burning season. I'm not sure if the one's at Home Depot and Lowes are any better for the price, so more research is needed. I would NOT buy this one again. PS: I don't build bonfires, so this wasn't that big of a fire, only 3 logs.
