Great Christmas Present
When you do not have a real fireplace, this is the way to go! Home Depot provided me with such excellent service. I ordered it on a Sunday, it arrived at Home Depot on Tuesday, and I picked it up on Wednesday. When I now come home from work, I just unwind with the fire going, and a candle that actually crackles and smells like a real fire. I love the way you have the option to have the heat on or off when he fireplace is turned on. Plus, you can adjust its lighting, all with the remote. This fireplace is a beautiful piece of furniture. So happy I went with this piece of furniture and that I ordered it from Home Depot.

I absolutely love my new electric fireplace. The frame with side curio cabinets is beautiful and the firebox flame is charming. I live in a small townhouse and it make my home so cozy! It took me awhile to build by myself (I'm 60) but I now reap the rewards even more!

We bought the ivory colored cabinet 3 months ago. We've used it a lot and I have been very pleased. Unfortunately, it must have heard me bragging about how wonderful it is because when I turn it on now, it runs only a few minutes and then beeps loudly until I unplug it. I've turned it on 4 times since and each time it beeps. I don't know what to do with it now. :( It was such a great unit. I've no idea why it's doing this.

    Took 3 people to assemble but fairly easy. Does not seem to be as fancy as depicted in picture. If you have a TV with side legs, a 44in will just barely fit with feet of stand not completely on top.

    I am a 61 year old woman. If I can put this thing together, anyone can I love it. I live in CO at 8500’ elevation. The heater on this unit is tremendous. I love the flames and wood burning effects. This is one of the best picks I have ever made.

    This unit was about what I expected in terms of assembly, using conventional hardware and techniques. Its finished appearance is beautiful. Just like the picture, but the flame looks even better in motion. We bought a 50" TV to go on top, and it is just a bit too large because it has 2 sets of legs instead of a center stand. I recommend a TV with a center pedestal stand.

    Beautiful Fireplace, looks great in our den.
    Very satisfied with this fireplace, it is beautiful and exactly what we wanted. However, the assembly took four hours, which I guess isn't bad for one person, but the directions are not good. Side panels did not line up right and took a lot of work to put them on. Also, there are no mark's or holes to screw the hinges on the doors into the cabinet. We do love the fireplace and feel it is good quality.

        After looking long and hard for the right corner media/fireplace, this one definitely hits the mark!! We love it and the fire effect is really great! It's been about a month since we received it and we are very happy with it. Thankful we could order it from Home Depot--delivery was quick and it was fairly easy to assemble.

        It was delivered quicker than we expected, and it would have been put together and up and working in about 1 hour, but there where fasteners missing. Not a big problem if we could have found the fasteners at the hardware, the proper size is not standard and not available even from Home Depot. I had to contact the vender, who did get them to us within about 3 days. We got it together for Thanksgiving, it looks as expected, wife loves the fireplace look, but we have not used the heater part yet, turned it on just long enough to see if it works. I have some misgivings about heat coming from the top of the insert, so near the electronics. It is made in China If you care. Would I recommend it? I,ll let you know in a year or three.

          worst purchase ever.
          this fire place cost way to much for what it is. when we assembled it I was very unhappy with the size and the look. looks very cheap for over 500.00 dollars. very unhappy and would love to return it, but it's already been assembled.

          Perfection
          Well made, looks beautiful, and is nice to look at when 'flame only' is on. The best feature is the heater in the morning. Heats the living room quickly in these cold January mornings at the beach! This fireplace has exceeded my expectations!

            adds that wonderful warm cozy feeling to where ever it is placed. Finish is beautifully done.
            The fireplace adds the warm feeling I wanted. The remote lets you control the flame in height and brightness, the side wall lighting, the heat if desired and timer. This is everything I wanted in a fireplace and just the right size. I bought a 40 inch tv for on top and it is the perfect size.

            Beautiful Piece!
            We previously had an electric fireplace (large) and an entertainment center (bulky) So this really fit the bill to combine the two things into one compact piece of furniture. The fireplace is nice and warms the room, can be used with or without heat. Only drawback was that the area for storing components was just barely too narrow to fit both our satellite reciever and DVD player so, be sure to measure before purchase.

              Great buy
              We were very pleased on how was easy to put together. It looks great in our living room, we have used it already without the heat, it has been very soothing on high stress days. We just watch the flames, oh so relaxing.

              A Great Addition
              The fireplace was very easy to assemble, the delivery was quick and the picture fails to convey the true beauty of the product. It is truly better in reality than it is in the picture and very easy to use. I enjoy it very much and looking forward to next winter to use it fully.

              Nice Product
              Fairly easy to put together, but will require two people to assemble. Looks very nice and very easy to use. I don't use it as a heater, but the thermostat works well and it does throw out some heat. Remote control is easy to use and the adjustments to the flame height and brightness is a breeze.
