Electric fireplace and outdoor heater reviews

Beautiful, heavy, well made fireplace. Very realistic looking fire and embers. Came in 2 managable boxes.I am 66 yrs old, carried and assembled it myself in about an hour and a half. Wife and I love it.

Received fireplace within a week of ordering. Assembly was fairly simple for 2 people - took 60-90 minutes due to unpacking of multiple boxes. End result is a heavy, solid, beautiful wood fireplace with mantle. Love the LED indicators on the insert screen and the auto-shut-off timer option. Very pleased with the intricately carved details on all sides of the fireplace and the light/heat options of the insert.

I've enjoyed this fireplace for 5 years and my only negative comment is that the flame control does not lower the flame enough to give the illusion of the end of the evening with a flickering, during out fire.

The price is more expensive that others but once I put it in my vacation home I was very impressed.

The fireplace itself works well and the mantle went together great. My comment is the color is not Espresso, it is a cherry wood color. Before ordering I called Portable Fireplace and specifically asked if the color was truly espresso and the person said yes. An Espresso color is a dark, rich brown, not a red cherry tone color. I have had several people take a look at it and each time they say the color is similar to a cherry wood.

I was able to finance my fireplace, which was very convenient for me. It took a little longer to get here due to having to verify my financing. However it was worth the wait. I received 2 of the 3 boxes 1 day but the other came the next, not a big deal for me. I was very worried how it would really look as I have seen some cheap looking fireplaces once i seen then in person. To my surprise it looked just like the pictures. I could of put it together by myself however due the weight of the top piece I did have help placing it on which was very simple. Once completely together the unit looks very nice and is pretty stable. It only took me able 30mins from start to finish, it came with easy to understand directions, even with out the directions it was pretty straight forward. I have nit had it but for a week now but love having it on while I am relaxing. I did try out the heater which is located on the top of the firebox, the heater works pretty well as it has a fan tk push the neat outwards. Unfortunately I live in Florida so this year so far has not been much of a winter to really see how well it heats. With that said and me living Florida it is nice to have the look and feel of a fire without the heat. So far so good, I still need to read on how log the lighting will last as I will use it on a regular basis. The only thing so far I wish it has was a more chunkier/meater base due to my decor kn my home, however I am pretty handy and will build a very plain extra base to set it on just to give it a little more but again for me I am very picky and never satisfied completely, guess I just like adding to things, making it my own. Overall I had a great experience with the buying process and product. I believe if you buy this fireplace you will be very happy with it. I give it a thumbs up.

Absolutely love the fireplace. It was well packed and no damage.
I gave it four stars because the shipping took longer than I expected. Tracking at first was a bit of a problem. I had to call customer service at one point and ask for the location and eta. Customer service was great and got back to me quickly. Other than that; great product. It's beautiful. I would recommend it.

We moved last year to a house without a fireplace and thought an infrared fireplace would be a good solution. I searched many many places for one. I was looking for something that would provide good heat, wasn't too cheesy looking, would fit our decor, and something that wasn't too high since we planned to put our TV on it. The height issue was a big problem with finding something. Most of the shorter fireplaces I found had more of a modern design, which would not go with our decor.

I thought I finally found the one that checked the boxes the best. So needless to say I was disappointed that what I thought I had ordered wasn't exactly what I received. Overall, it does match the picture in most areas but instead of the cute cabinet door pulls pictured, I got ugly square knobs. Mine also has legs, which the one in the picture doesn't. Perhaps the biggest irritation is that the height is 35 inches high, instead of the listed 32". There were plenty of others I would have chosen if I wanted one 35 inches high. I picked this one since it was the shortest I found with more of a traditional design and an infrared firebox.

The furniture its self is nice. My daughter and assembled it ourselves. It arrive with a very minor ding on a corner but there is a marker you can use to cover scratches. The felt pads placed on the inside of the cabinet doors to protect the box arrived placed so far inside they do not touch the frame when closed.

The fire is a bit cheesy looking but I'm not sure that isn't just what you get with an electric fire. I have seen much worse.

After all the searching and finally placing the order, then waiting on the shipping, means by the time we got it and got it assembled it wasn't cold enough to use it. So now that we have had some cold weather, I have finally turned it on. This thing puts out almost no heat. Yes, if you stand in front you can feel some minor warmth but it makes no difference in the room. Major disappointment, what a waste of money.

I have just one word to describe this fireplace, BEAUTIFUL!!!. I've been searching for the perfect one and this is it!! Some Minor issues with the delivery but John in costumer service took care of it. very pleasant.thanks again John!

Received the fireplace today. It was very easy to put together and I just want you to know I LOVE IT!!!!

Beautiful tv stand, arrived in perfect condition, assembly was very easy - about 2 hours start to finish.

Product looks better in person - extremely happy with my purchase.

Me and my husband just put our 72" Grand Central entertainment fireplace together yesterday and absolutely love it!! It is the middle of July but we still had to sit with the logs turned on for the evening. Can't wait for this winter to keep it on 24/7. It was very easily put together. No problems what so ever!!! Took about 2 hrs. to assemble. Wonderful product and glad to have made the investment.

Received everything works great thanks happy customer!

This unit is beautiful. It met my expectations. It was very quick and easy to assemble. They did a very good job of packing for shipping. I think it took more time to unpack each piece than it did to assemble. Step by step instructions are very easy to follow. I could have easily assembled by myself but glad my neighbor helped lift the top in place. I love the infrared fireplace with all the settings.

We have been using the unit for a while and find it to do what we wanted it to do. The assembly instructions were easy to understand and it took less than one hour to put together. Beside adding the heat we wanted it adds charm to the room.I wish we could have some company in the USA to make it.

I absolutely love my Fireplace TV Console. It is an absolutely beautiful piece of furniture. It arrived completely assembled ready to put in my living room and use.

hermle is best clock company

My 15 year old son put the fireplace together in an hour. I have a small living room, I purchased this model fireplace in the classic cherry finish. It is beautiful. It heats up the room wonderfully. I'm glad I took the chance on the purchase...I loved the price.

best investment i ever made for my patio. flawless and very user friendly. received many many many compliments. i highly recomend this unit

This unit is beautiful and works perfectly. I can not say enough about how great you treated us and quality of product we received.

Love this cottage look

The fireplace is assembled and fully complete. It's a great fit into our new sunroom. Thank you for your assistance.

Very nice console for the price! We went with the contemporary infrared heater and it is beautiful! The unit only took about 2 hours to put together taking my time. The unit took a little longer to arrive due to the item being backordered but otherwise portable fireplace.com was great to deal with with excellent communication! Would definately order from them again.

I have had my new fireplace for a few days now and it looks beautiful, just like the picture. It did arrive right on time and the delivery guy was a sweetheart. However, I must say, that it took over four hours to put together and my husband is really handy. Instructions were at times not clear. But other that that, I love it. The flames are so realistic. I feel that the material(laminated mdf) is not of great quality for the price. But I would reccommend to a friend.
