Why would anyone want a wood burning fireplace This insert is incredible. I converted my traditional wood burning brick fireplace into a sleek, modern, open fireplace with this product. It gives off a beautiful orange glow. The flame flicker is believable and the best part of all- it puts off a ton of heat. Remote controlled flame without the mess of soot and a smoky smell in the home Why didn’t I buy this product sooner 1010 recommend.
