Mason M. Colbert: I love real wood fires in the fireplace. Problem is, I have a a fireplace that, while fairly new, is old school in design. It's terribly inefficient -- no outside air to sustain the fire and no heat exchanger/fan forced air around the fire box. The result is that if you build a nice fire in it you are actually sending your heated house air up the chimney (think $ going out) so that the net effect is an increase in your energy use. I got tired of the high heating bills due in part to using this inefficient fireplace. So after a review of the options, I got this. I figured that at the very least I could close the chimney flue and look at the pretty colored flames while saving utility costs.

The unit has more than met my expectations. In the daytime, the reflection from the plexiglass shield is noticeable but at night in a darkened room the flames look absolutely realistic. I did what many have recommended and used a black magic marker to blacken the edge of the shield -- this helped the reflection quite a bit.

I wish the unit put out a bit more heat but mine is in a very large great room so I don't really think that is the unit's fault. It's...

Estee: The media could not be loaded.  PROS:
How many ways can you think of to improve the your quality of life instantly for about $220? This electric log set instantly added coziness to my new (budget) apartment built in 1980 and helped to aid in relaxation immediately post-move. It has a meditative quality to it. Now, I just can’t imagine if I had moved into this apartment without it.

If you have some slight social anxiety (or like the typical jitters when meeting someone new or new-ish), this is nice to have as a focal point while sipping wine. (:

With the heater “off,” electric inserts are considered safe to leave on (like just the lights/illusion part "on").

It is plug and play! Just put the mirrored plastic piece in its place, plug in, and you’re good to go! In my size fireplace, I had to situate the base in first and kinda finagled the plastic...

Howard KHoward K: I installed this when winter started and now it's spring. It throws off a surprising amount of heat! Definitely takes a chill off in this Old House of mine! All my guests think it looks great! And nobody commented on the glaire from the glass (a common complaint in other reviews)

Mike DeeeeMike Deeee: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly... review.

The Good
+ Price and Quality is great. It is reasonably priced, and the quality, fit and finish is really good.
+ The Effect and overall flame is really well done. Your not going to fool anybody with the "fake flame", but at the same time the effect is done in such a way that your eyes are not drawn to it.
+ It does heat, but just remember that this insert operates on 110VAC so you can't expect intense heat output by any means.
+ Well packaged, and shipped in perfect condition.

The Bad
- I wish the base and legs were made of metal, like a real fireplace log holder.
- It would be nice if the fan speed would be variable and adjustable (low, med high would be awesome) rather than constant (The heat is low or high, with constant fan speed).

The Ugly
- Nothing really, it's a solid unit for those with reasonable expectations.

Hints and Tips:
* Prepare your empty fireplace before inserting your fireplace in place.
* Vacuum and clean all around the inside of your fireplace. I went from a log burning fireplace to using this electric insert.
* I painted the internal...

LUCIO GONZALEZ PALACIOS: El conjunto de leños y base de carbón lucen muy bien en mi chimenea!
La calefacción se siente muy bien alrededor de la chimenea.

robkamm: I ordered this electric log set to see how it would compare to having a full-blown electric fireplace installed in my existing wood-burning fireplace. The flame on this set far surpasses the far more expensive models; it is quite realistic. Some reviews have said the remote isn't great but I haven't had any issues with mine. It was very easy to "install" -- take it out of the box and plug it in. The plexiglass cover was a bit too large for my fireplace box so I followed the lead of another reviewer and trimmed my down a bit. I would recommend this electric log set.
