Ok, I read the reviews and decided to buy this product. I waited for a package to arrive and instead a very small envelop comes... that's right an envelop. In it is a yet smaller thin plastic bag with a tiny sample like amount of this product. NO more than an ounce. I went back to the Amazon site and re read the product description. Guess what, no quantity or weight indicated. There isn't enough product for a doll house fireplace, let alone a real home fireplace. What really hurts is the 8 dollars shipping which is non refundable! This is a two postage stamp item.
I am a big Amazon fan but this is the worst shopping experience I have had. $ for one ounce, maybe less, of product plus 8$ more for shipping is tantamount to Fraud. I am embarrassed to admit I even bought this but i thought i should warn others...

If you have a gas log set, you need these embers. Replaced my old embers with these platinum ones and what a difference it makes! Your fire will burn hotter, cleaner and brighter just like the real thing. Was a little skeptical at first myself but for the price, it makes your fire a much more enjoyable experience all the way around.Best Deals for Platinum Bright Embers
The Amazon reviews posted at this time accord with my assessment. Good product. expensive. The shipping charges were nearly 1/2 the price of the product. That said, it was worth it.by way of background i've converted my last 3 fireplaces to fake logs starting in the late 80s 2 brands of ceramics initially which didn't work well for me, then about 15 years ago a set of fiberglass logs that i really like. I have been recharging the fake embers about every 5 years all along with acceptable results. although pleasing, the embers never looked realistic for the absence of glowing chunks. When I got ready to recharge again this winter, i saw the Platinum Bright for the first time. The reviewers seemed to agree with the manufacturer that this gives the appearance of the glowing chunks that i wanted.
Well, they work just as advertised and give the old glowing embers much greater appeal. This one small bag of product (just a few ounces) is enough to add some realistic effects to the old logs and embers (i did not recharge the old embers, just added the platinum brights. I have a 36" hearth, and this one small bag did the trick for me. (n.b., i only added the PB atop the embers that were already glowing and made no attempt to rearrange and i'm satisfied with the result).
I think the product is worth the money paid, except for the outrageous postage. All said, recommended with the caveat that it might be worth your while to see of the local hardware store has them and spare you the postage. Product_A; Postage=D
hope this helps.
