DOES NOT HEAT the space advertised.   We wanted an electric fireplace that would take the chill off our recently finished basement.  After 1 week, we have set it at the highest temperature multiple times and for hours at a time and the room is the same temperature.
I am really disappointed because when we unboxed and installed, I loved the look of the fireplace.

Just assembled and plugged in….is hearing the room really well.  Simple remote to use.  Assembly took 2 hours.  Very straightforward directions.  Slight ding in the mantel but not a big deal.
