Love this unit.  The color, the richness of the wood, and what I like best of all is that I could choose between the wood burning look, or the crystals in the base of the fireplace.  (It came with both) They can light up different colors, various flame colors.  I looked high & low for a unit to hold our 65 inch tv, with crystals in the base.  Found it and am very happy.  Hubby had it bouilt in no time, just needed a bit of assistance from me to put top on.   Love it!  Also the ambiance without the heat, is awesome, but on theose  chilly nites, the heat will be wonderful.
