Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Hello,
My Frigidaire OWF-10303 Oslo Wall Hanging LED Fireplace arrived today and right away I unpacked it and set everything up. It arrived double boxed keeping the unit safely packed including the glass front. A double folded edge steel plate is included for wall hanging, this type of hanger is easy to use and strong. The fireplace weighs 44 lbs. so be sure to screw the hanger plate into at least two studs, the more the better. Once hanging or placed add the included opaque white stones along the bottom inside the firebox, they look like glowing coals when the LED flames are running. Next you need to mount he glass, it goes on very easy but does weigh a bit. Once running the fire looks almost real! you can change colors from green to red to blue or a combination of colors at once, I prefer the orange fire as it looks like a real fire. The heater is a basic resistance wire that looks like it came out of a hairdryer, I'd rather it have a quartz tube element but it is what it is. It gives off plenty of heat pushed by a blower with high and low settings, a vent in the top is where the heat comes out. You can run the LED flame with or without the heater running so it can be used year round. This would look great placed inside a regular fireplace, it fits in mine and looks very real in that location. A remote control is included too, you can control the heat settings plus change the LED flame color. I do hear motor noise when the LED flame is running alone,it isn't loud but noticeable if near the unit.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I received this through the Amazon Vine program, but it was taken off of my review list because it arrived somewhat damaged. We were able to repair it enough to assemble it and get it working safely, so I would like to share my thoughts on the product for those thinking about purchasing this.First of all, I love the look of this "fireplace." It is sleek, like a flat screen TV. The colors are vivid, and the rocks give it a nice touch. It comes with a remote to change the colors and to turn the heat settings on and off. I've been using the remote from my bed, which is several feet away, and it works fine. In that regard I am very happy with it. So why only 3 stars?
For as much as this item costs, I think it would have been better if it also came with some sort of crackling fire sound. I realize this would then require speakers of some sort, which may not have been compatible with the heating unit, so I am not really taking stars off for that. However, the unit does give off a bit of white noise, which is a bit annoying. Also, at close glance, the LED "fire" looks a bit cheesy and unrealistic. The remote control, while convenient, gives off an annoying beep when the unit is turned on and off. It also beeps each time you want to change the color settings. There should be a way to turn this off, or just get rid of it completely. It would also be nice if the screen had an indiscreet on/off switch separate from the remote, so that this could be used with a timer.
There are two heater settings, which is nice. As with any type of space heater, I would not leave it on unattended for any extended period of time. We use a wood burning stove in the wintertime, but the upstairs bedroom remains cold, which is another reason I requested this. I am not sure if any long term damage will occur from the heater, but I don't see myself using it that often except for a few hours in the evening, so I am not overly concerned about this.
It may take more than one person to set this up. The unit is at least 40 pounds/18 Kilograms and needs to be mounted to the wall. The instructions say not to turn it on until it is completely mounted.
If this unit cost $100-150, I would have probably given it 4 stars. Like I mentioned before, I really like this item. It's a nice alternative to a night light or romantic ambient light. I just feel some improvements could be made to make this more worth the retail price.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I thought I was going to just LOVE this, and after trying to figure out where to put this, I found this to be not as awesome as I thought it'd be. This is just an odd fit in our house, our living room already has a real fireplace, so we tried it around the family room? Nope, bedrooms? Nope. In the fireplace? It sadly didn't fit. I didn't like the way this looks anywhere, it does look tacky, it's not like having a gas fireplace.I do also have a high concern of any effects on my wall from the heater over a period of time, since this seems fairly new, I haven't found any reviews on problems, well honestly, if you search around, you'll find only reviews on Amazon at the moment.
It's not as quiet as I'd like it to be, while no it's not obnoxious, it's not soothing to sit on your couch and hear your wall fireplace not making fire sounds.
