This is a nice fire, the flame effect is very good, and it does chuck out a fair amount of heat on both settings. It is a good siz, relatively quiet wheb it's running and looks lovely in my living room with the fire surround. 

The Only complaint is it abit plasticy. The first fire i received the hinge was broken and the logs were cracked.. however it was quickly exchanged by the company after a couple of emails. 
Overall this was a good buy
