Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The flames look better than any of the other brands I saw in stores. The 3D logs really make the difference, and the beveled glass helps the illusion. Other models had the heater underneath the fake flames, but I thought since I have hardwood floors I probably ought to go for heating element on top just in case. The sides and top stay cool to the touch, so it would be safe for critters and kiddos. The fan hums along, but it's no worse than the fan from my house main heat running. I can't imagine any fan forced heat being any more quiet, so it's all about expectations. I like the thermostat being in 2 degree increments, and the option of timer shut off. I ordered this for my master bedroom-- since it's furthest away from the main thermostat, it tends to be a bit cooler than the rest of the house. So far it works great to warm up the bedroom to match the rest of the house, and I can use the timer shut off and not worry about having a space heater running while sleeping. Plus, the rosy glow is supposed to be good for helping to wind down for sleep. I have a Himalayan pink salt lamp in my room also, so I thought these "flames" would be a nice addition to the ambiance of my wind-down time. See my video for a demo of the features. *** My bed is little high off the ground, so I have it sitting on risers to be able to see the flames from bed. So the risers shown are NOT included. ***
