Four Stars.  This item is as described, does what it says and it’s good in that regard.  It suffers from the same issue all electric fireplaces face cameras can’t capture how they look in person. 

This fireplace looks very fake.  It doesn’t look bad, but it also doesn’t look good.  It’s not gonna fool anyone into thinking it resembles a flame.  I wish I’d have got the dimplex Revillusion instead...
