Love it

We have really loved this fireplace. The sceen on front makes it look way more realistic than the glass I think. We loved the size too- it looks like a traditional fireplace. My only negative review would be that I wish the flames looked a little more realistic. I’m not sure that’s possible with an electric fireplace but just a thought. I do like that it puts out heat though! It does help warm up the room!

We love this fireplace.

Love, love, love our fireplace. It arrived on time and in good condition. We have temporarily hung it on the wall with the bracket that came with it (quick and easy) but plan to install as recessed when we have more time. It allows 3 flame choices and we love the blue and orange combination and we use the logs not the crystals. It looks sooooo real. We bought the mess screen and are really happy that we did. We don't use the heater very often but when we do it is just to "stand by the fire and warm up" and it works great for that. Reminds me of when we were kids playing in the snow and we would come in by the fireplace to thaw out. We would definitely buy this again!
