We are satisfied with our fireplace and it is perfect for our space.  We were looking for something not as large as what we had prior.  We use it as a secondary heat source and the flames are realistic enough for us.  We did a darker color accent wall so the tan fireplace looks nice against it.  We were pleased with the look of the stone and it is not real fake looking or shiny as some are that I have seen.  The only negative thing I can say is we ordered a blower as the description said it was not included, but upon receiving the fireplace, we did not need it.  I returned it and got a refund with no issues.  Overall, we are happy with this purchase.
