This fireplace is perfect for bringing the ambience of a real fireplace into our living room. It would also be nice in a family room, a dining room or even a large bedroom! The brick looks and feels real.  I live in Florida so I don’t often put the heat on but on some of our chilly winter nights, I will put the heat on and the great thing about it is that there are different levels of light and heat to choose from! This fireplace is worth every penny!
