SIMPLIFIRE55-Inch Scion Trinity 3-Sided Linear Electric Fireplace (SF-SCT55-BK)

We closed in an old worn out wood burning fireplace with this. We live in Floria so we wanted the fireplace ambiance without all the heat. This fireplace does have a heater too, but we hardly ever use it. We built it over the old brick hearth and used butcher block for the new hearth and mantle. We put several coats of clear product on the top to get that satin smooth finish. We had a plug in right next to the fireplace so we used the adapter and just plugged it right in...no muss no fuss. We think it looks as real as a propane or natural gas flame. We really like all of the combinations you get with the colors for different times of day and moods. We haven't even set up the logs and other medium it came with. Maybe next year. All in all we are very happy with the finished product and best part is, no more cleaning out old ashes!
