I really like the realistic like flame and after a slight trim of the reflective plastic back panel it fit perfectly in my fireplace. Legs are quite flimsy and bend easily but once set in place are fine. I wish it had a stronger fan to push more heat out. I ended up buying two tiny fans to put in front to draw the heat out better. Overall it has a realistic look and I am happy with the unit. Remote works good and it also has buttons on right leg to control flame and heat.
