Cool idea but website should be more clear that the visible rim is BLACK, not stainless steel as it appears in the photo. (We thought we were getting the latter.)  Also, review specs carefully if you're building or remodeling a wall for this unit -- the overall specs account for the heater section on the top of the unit that will we covered in drywall.  Question remains: If anything ever goes wrong, do you have to rip up the wall to fix it? Plan for a trap door?  Long story short, we love these fireplaces but the recessed ones are much more complicated.
