This fireplace is so amazing! There are 2 separate buttons, 1 for just heat and 1 for the look of the fire. You can have them on at the same time. There is A LOT of heat that comes out which is amazing, it warms up my space no problem. Then when it gets too warm, I can turn the heat part off and just leave the fire on. The outer part of this furniture does not get warm so it is safe for kids and pets. I bought the gray in color. 



The only downside is that it is a little smaller but the dimensions are listed in the description. Also- it would be super convenient to have 1 of these with an outlet in the back of the actual fireplace. This is because I don’t like seeing cords so unless your fireplace will be directly in front of an outlet, you’ll be fine.
