I'm looking forward to using my new fireplace unit.  It's been warm here so I'll have to wait until October or November to turn it on.  I had a previous fireplace and loved it.  My cleaning lady tripped over the cord and pulled it out of the unit.  I don't have her anymore.  The unit was in a place where it was hard to trip over too.  I have an open concept living, kitchen and dining room and this unit will do just fine.d
