I would probably have given it a better rate but it is missing something that should be there which makes it not work with my fireplace heater. As far as the way it was packaged it was a rating of 5 I'm sure it works fine for one of the Amish Heaters just the wrong one for mine. thanks anyway. i also give it a 5 for the amount of time from the time I ordered it to the time I received it. I'll try and see if I can sell it.

I ordered two of these racks about two months ago. They were pretty nice with the Landman logo screened on the end rails and on the cover. The rails were a nice quality black finish. This prompted me to order two more and took delivery on them about three weeks ago. Totally different rack. The bottom rails were rusting through the incredibly thin, flat finish, no logo on the rails or the covers. The covers were a poorer grade than the first two I received to the point that one of them ripped up the side while covering the rack, using no force whatsoever. You can tell the difference in the materials just buy looking and feeling them. I would have said to buy these two months ago but now I say to buy American. These are not worth the money any longer.

Despite Lowes' website's claim of having this product available by the end of October, it did not come to pass and the local store informed me that is was on backorder from the manufacturer until December! I came here, found this, ordered it and before the week was out, we received it. Nothing fancy but sturdy (on concrete) and I was happy. At least until recently when we had some strong winds come through the area. I reckon the colder temperatures made the plastic cover brittle because that thing was ripped and shredded afterwards.

If you're considering this product, do NOT think that the inclusion of a cover is the deal maker as a plastic garbage bag would outlast the crappy cover.

If you are looking for an inexpensive fire-wood-stacking solution, this is it. The rack is made up of hollow metal tubes, screwed together. The height off of the ground is very good, though the only contact with the ground is 6 small feet (see picture). So, if you intend on putting this on ANYTHING other than a concrete slab, you will need to set this on wide bricks or pressure treated wood to keep it stable. I found that out pretty quickly when one rack tipped over because the feet sunk unevenly into the ground that I had it on. Luckily, I was not nearby when it happened. Take the extra time and make sure that your footing is secure, and this rack should last you a few seasons without problem.

Honest reviews on Landmann Firewood Log Rack

We live in the North East and our old log rack cover only had Velcro closures. The wind and snow always got under the cover and blew it around a lot. Also, the material was a much thinner plastic. The previous one lasted only two seasons as the ice got the best of it and ripped the top part.

WE LOOKED AT SOMETHING MORE DURABLE. After 2 months owning the Landmann Heavy Durty Log Rack Cover, it really lives up to our expectations. We give it five stars because

It provides easy access to the wood via three sturdy zippers

The material is thick

We don't think it will rip

It makes our log rack look need and tidy

It stays in place: we just had a big rain storm and it hardly moved our wood is dry

We expect it to last for a many seasons

A great price for the value

I have to agree, that it did not immediate cover all the wood when we ordered our 1/2 cord, but we didn't mind one row later it fit nicely. We tie the bottom Velcro strips around the legs of the log cover to give it extra support.

Hope this review was helpful.

P.S. Winter 2011/2012

The first one held up so well in that really harsh winter of 2010/2011 that we decided to buy another one (it's black again but now has the logo "Landman" stamped on it see comments). We also bought another 8'x8' firewood rack which included a cover however, that particular cover is NOT of THIS quality, it's simply flimsy plastic and didn't last a month. Hence we bought this one again. We have now replaced covers for all of our three log racks with this heavy duty cover and have no qualms about it!

Price was right. Arrived prior to their estimate. Easy to put together. The only problem is after having up for one week and getting a little snow, I wiped the top off with my hand to clear the snow and found an 8 inch rip. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. However, I made a call to the customer service number (that took a couple time because nobody picked up for the "customer service" prompt). A nice lady by the name of Nancy listened to my complaint and, much to my surprise, said "I'm sorry you've having a problem". She went on to say that I was not the first customer to call about the flimsy material on the cover. She immediately offered to send me a new cover at no charge. She also mentioned that should I desire, I can purchase an upgraded canvas cover, normally 49.95 for 19.95. I would think that if the company knew there was a problem with the cover material that they would automatically upgrade the cover material. I think we'd all pay a little more for a quality product. I'm awaiting the cover to get here will probably be a while since we just got over 36 inches of snow. While I know the new cover will also at some point rip, I believe that this company cares about its customers. Nancy's prompt concern and attention tells me that.

Now if the snow would melt a little I could get to my firewood and have a fire!!!!

If they upgrade the cover, I would highly recommend this product.

Be aware of bad electrical connections. Check all wire connections before even testing the blower. However, the blower have worked very well for close to a month now, it is a silent unit and seems to be made of good quality and solid construction. I am editing my first review after I tested for like I said close to a month. In my opinion it is a good product for the price I paid. Buy with confidence.

This product worked as expected, was easy to install, and is reasonably quiet. If you set the fan on high, it is a bit loud, but the high setting isn't necessary having the fan on a lower setting puts out plenty of heat, at least for our needs. Not much to say about how it works no surprises, which is a good thing.

As for the install make sure you have a 120v outlet already in place, preferably wired to a discreet location below the gas fireplace (in the same area where this fan will be installed), and confirm that it has power before doing the install. The fan itself should mount to some points in the back of the fireplace one is a metal tab, which the right-side of the fan slips into, and the other is a metal bolt, which the left side slips over and is then bolted down.

Another thing to note, which confused me at first: the temperature sensor, which automatically turns the fan on and off, is connected to a magnet attach that directly to the bottom of the fireplace box. I mistakenly thought that it would get too hot in that location, but other locations didn't seem to get hot enough to trigger the switch to turn on the fan.

Six years in on a gas fireplace, a friend offers to install a fan if I can find it. Here it is. Reasonably priced, fairly easy to install (checkout the great tutorials on YouTube.). I don't know why I waited so long. This unit cost @$100 less than the one the local fireplace shop offered to special order. Quiet, not overly forceful, does a nice job of circulating warm air in a great room area about 24' x 17'. Takes the edge off the chill and supplements the furnace. Highly recommended.

Works well. Easy to install once you figure put it is supposed to hang on a bolt at the back of the fireplace. Installation instructions were the same as what came with my fireplace and left out critical steps/info. The seller has a YouTube page with installation instructions on similar models..very helpful once you find it

Having never owned a gas fireplace before, I was a little confused when I went to install it. I assumed that the blower was supposed to go directly in back of the lower access area, when in fact it was supposed to go on the left-hand side. I have a Napoleon BGD42.

They sent the wrong size washer and wing nut. My fireplace needed 1/4"-20 size, and i believe they sent 1/8" diameter. I called Napoleon to verify the size, and then a quick trip to the hardware store and $2 in hardware later, i was ready to install the blower. Once I realized the correct placement and had the proper hardware, it literally went in in two minutes flat, as I already had an outlet to power it with.

The thermal sensor works as specified. The variable speed controller does not fit as snuggly into the bracket as I would like, but it's not going anywhere.

Overall very satisfied by this.

This is one strong fireplace grate, well-crafted from stainless steel with robust welds. The only way it could be improved would be if Uniflame would be if it were even bigger than 30".

I've had cast iron fireplace grates in the past, and they always succumb to rust within a few years, so I expect good things from this stainless model. Only used it for a couple of fires far, and it's still mostly shiny.

UPDATE; Grate has been sitting in an outdoor fireplace for 2 years now, and while it is no longer bright and shiny, dimensions are about the same. We did get a little "overenthusiastic" with a fire last year (had a lot of bone-dry oak) and got it glowing red, so now the grate has sagged a bit in the middle, but it has otherwise held up under fire.

There are six of them in a sheet. But they are only sawed half way through. So when you try to break one off you end up with pieces. Sawing them 75% of the way through would solve the problem. Otherwise they light easy and stay lit.

Takes a while to assemble need to get some grey grout from Lowe's there will be one gap between the pieces but it is an easy fix. Over all really good. Wish I could get a gas insert for it the fuel is a little high dollar but my wife enjoys it and that is all that matter. one more thing it is cheaper here by several hundred dollars on other sites.
