I’ve had a fireplace in my home for the past 10 years so when buying a new house and doing remodel projects I knew I had to have another fireplace. I can’t live without the cozy effect it gives our home. This was a great purchase! Love the look and the price was great! Haven’t used the blower option yet as it hasn’t been cold enough but looking forward to that once I get the cords all put away and it’s winter again!
