Overview
A living room or den gets a freestanding fireplace system with a wooden mantel in an Auburn Cherry furniture finish. A vent-free propane insert is housed inside, with a remote and receiver for on and off and temperature control.
The reason to consider it is the furniture look and the remote, which make it a finished piece that needs no chimney. The limitation is the weight and the propane only fuel, and the listed dimension fields do not match the seller copy.
Who it's for
Homeowners with propane who want a furniture grade focal point and remote control of the heat. Those who live where vent-free heaters are restricted, or who need something easy to move, should look at other options.
Pros and cons
- Furniture finish mantel
- Remote with temperature control
- Oxygen depletion sensor
- Hardware pack and batteries included
- Blower sold separately
- Heavy, some assembly needed
- Dimension fields conflict
Performance notes
A remote thermostat sets the temperature, and the receiver cycles the burner to match. The vent-free burner releases exhaust into the room, so the rated heating area and the oxygen depletion sensor matter for the space.
