This product is used in our ""Great Room"" It is the focal point of the room. It adds ambiance and mood, as well as functionality. We have heard many ""wow's"" ! Everyone who sees it has a wonderful comment. We purchased only an insert, and we (my husband) framed it into an existing built in wall unit. What we envisioned prior to purchase has now come to fruition. Thank you putting a product out there that we do not regret purchasing.
