I shopped around quite a while because many of these fireplaces can look so cheap and cheesy. This one is really nice. Furniture quality wood cabinet. The fire itself is really pretty and has several settings. Three settings for the orange glow, and three settings that include the blue flame at the base of the fire. The logs glow like embers. Easy to wheel around, and heats my large, high ceiling living room much faster than my old cheap one that died. Very happy with this purchase!
