Cheap Pleasant Hearth Bellow Hardwood Fireplace, 15-Inch

Customer Ratings:

Let me explain a bit here about how I will review this because I just received it today.

My family is hard on fireplace bellows. We use them daily during the heating season. I have gotten to where I can predict how long a bellows will last and unfortunately this year they have not lasted as long as I had predicted they would. That does NOT appear to be the case with this one. I have used bellows to light our fires since the mid 1980's. A good long lasting bellows is hard to find locally.

I also would like to say that this IS NOT MY FAVORITE TYPE of bellows. My favorite is the hand crank type. The good quality hand crank ones cannot be found even on the net because they have been replaced by very cheap imports that do well to last me a month. Before the hand crank type I did use this type of bellows that I am now reviewing. I have had bad luck with this kind too. Some companies only build them for their looks and those kind's don't last me long either.

So now I hope you understand why I felt I must review this today the first day I received it. It's because I think I can do it and be accurate too. If it does not meet my expectations I will immediately come back to this review where I will edit it, add an update, and downgrade it. If it exceeds my expectations I will happily report that in a later up date.

The first thing I noticed right out of the box is that this has a better quality leather than all of this type of bellows I have bought in the past. I was expecting a low quality leather. I intend to extend the life of this by using any leather product that helps it be more flexible. If any of my readers here would like to tell me about your favorite leather cleaning or softening product please tell me about it in the comment section.

Another problem I have had with this type is with the tips where the air shoots put. All of them in the past have used a very thin metal or even plastic. When using a bellows I like to be able to brace them against the stove door. This makes the air shoot straight on to my target. When it's not braced the action of pumping sends my jet of air all over the place. I am happy to report that the metal tip of this bellows was far thicker and far better quality than I was expecting.

One more thing that I was impressed with that others may find extremely silly is the leather string that runs between the handles. This one was better than I expected. This part has a important function that most folks don't realize. When installed correctly between the handles it prevents the user from extending the bellows too far open. If you repeatedly open them up father than they should you reduce the life of the whole unit because it stresses the leather. Most folks think it is used to hang the unit up when you are done with it.

I was also impressed by it's price. It was not the lowest priced on Amazon but it certainly is not the highest. Other websites charge in the $100 range for these. I even once saw a $200 one. Let me warn you folks. With this type of bellows high price does not mean high quality. I think many people must buy these for looks alone and not to use. I paid less than $20 for this but I will bet it will outlast a $200 one.

I apologize for this long review. I'm just happy that I have found a bellows that is far better quality than I expected and to be quite honest I have not owned I good quality bellows of this type for many years.

One last thing. It's heavier than I expected but in that case it's good because the heaviness is from better construction. This unit should last me a long time.

The product is just like described. I like it for the light wood appearance.

Pro:

It does not take very long to get the fire started back up from embers, only about 5 blows which is the same as the one I had to replace. It fits well mounted on the wall with the string attached. It is a very good size of 15 inches, which isnt too big and bulky, not is it too small to be efficient. This was also the cheapest on amazon prime, and for the price, it was probably the best buy. The only difference between this one and a more expensive one would be aesthetics.

Con:

There isnt much negative to say about this product. What I didn't like was the shape, it seemed a little too long with the front nozzel. It just looks awkward, but it will not be on display at the fireplace. It arrived dusty. The first few blows from it sprayed out some sort of dust which was not expected.

overall I would recommend this as the cheapest option and cannot complain.

Honest reviews on Pleasant Hearth Bellow Hardwood Fireplace, 15-Inch

The Pleasant Hearth Bellow Hardwood Fireplace, 15-Inch works well for our wood stove. We have used it to get a new fire going, and we have used it to fire up a somewhat lagging fire, to build up the heat, and/or getting added wood to burn. It has solid construction and the tip is solid enough that there is not danger of heat damage. For people with large hands it might take a little focus not to pinch their fingers. I definitely am glad we bought it.

As I recall, someone else mentioned the sound effects not being too good. No, doesn't really sound like a crackling fire to me, but you can mute it. I am happy with my purchase temp control, ambiance control (brightness of flame image), and it works...also doesn't get hot anywhere on the unit, other than the air coming out the front vents. The fan is a bit loud, but I don't mind. My Dad and Step-mom have one like this, so I already knew I'd like it. I looked around, but ended up with one just like theirs. Good for the price!

I generally only leave reviews for the best and the worst products that I buy here on Amazon. Thankfully, this product falls into the former.

I am pretty hard to please in general but this little stove won me over right from the start even while still removing it from it's box.

Growing up in wintry New England, we heated our modest little house in the sticks with wood stoves. This was not without it's unpleasantries. Lugging wood into the cellar and enduring bloody noses and dry skin from the moisture-sucking heated air was never my favorite but I must admit there is nothing like the sound and smell of a wood stove on a cold January night.

After living in Southern California for the last 13 years, I recently grew nostalgic for my childhood. I live in an apartment and a real stove is not possible so I looked for solutions that didn't require venting or actual wood and came across the Duraflame 4600 btu.

It's built solidly, with a nice patina that does resemble an old cast iron stove. It's also a very good size, not too big and not too small. Perfect for the corner of the living room in my 700 sq foot 1 bedroom apartment.

I was rather dubious as to the quality of the 'flames' so I wasn't expecting much when I flipped on the switch (nicely hidden by a solid glass door) to activate them. It turns out they look very realistic. The coals even look convincing. I sat with a glass of wine and watched them dance for at least 30 minutes, happily reminiscing.

After being completely spell-bound, I remembered to test out the heater part finally. It has a blower underneath that directs the heat out the front. I tested underneath, behind, on top, and found no heat except where it should be. That's reassuring to me, knowing that the heat will always be confined to a cone coming from underneath the front.

I even placed a candle on top and left it there for 10 mins. It did not melt at all. It does get hot around the circumference of the bottom surface but that's about it.

All in all, I am extremely satisfied with this product. It's going to be a big hit at my Christmas dinner party. Buy this thing immediately. you won't be disappointed.

I am already showing it off to my neighbors ...

This is a video of my heater. The flames look really real!Everyone who sees it loves it and wants one.I am now able to keep my central heater at 70, and still have a warm home. Heats from the floor up so your feet and legs stay warm, which central heat doesn't always do that well. I absolutely love this heater/fireplace! Perfect size for bedroom, bathroom or small living room(like I have, 20"x20")Why didn't I get one of these sooner!

Update! 1/5/2012...

I had this heater almost a year now. And I just wanted to say...I STILL LOVE IT! Small size, but puts out the heat. I have a 870sq ft home. And this little fireplace keeps at least half of it warm. It may heat all. But I keep the bedroom doors closed dues to little dogs in the home. But the little ones(dogs) all really enjoy the fireplace as well. Bottom line. Get it. You won't be disappointed!

I bought this item yesterday. Ordered it through Northland Metal for $79. Quite nice and compact. You can use the flame/log without turning on the heat.

It gives a very nice fireplace efffect coming from a small stove. The heating element is very powerful and warms up the room quite fast. I bought because of the terrible cold winter we had last year here in Tampa, FL. I suspect it will be another cold few months of temps in the 30s and 20s. So I bought it for that reason. You won't be sorry very nicely made.

Honest reviews on Duraflame Vent-Free Metal Stove - 4600 BTU, 400 Sq. Ft. Heating

I purchased this stove instead of the Dimplex model that is almost identical because I liked the design of the door better and I thought that Duraflame was a respected brand. I know someone that has the Dimplex and absolutely loves it. I read the reviews of the Dimplex and there are tons of them and almost all extremely positive. I thought the fact that there were only a few reviews for this stove might be because it was newer to the market. The stove looks fine. Was delivered in good condition, and is easy to just plug in. No assembly of any kind. The flame is a resonable facsimile of a real fire, so all that is fine. But within a few weeks the motorized parts that rotate to make the look of fire started to make noise. Also, the heat blower makes noise. So the fire plus the blower make some pretty audible noise. If you turn off the heat blower you have what is essentially an annoying noise that actually makes me have to turn the TV up louder. Sometimes the noise gets quiter. Sometimes it gets louder. It would be too much trouble to return it so I'm stuck with it. I'll never order something this large from Amazon again.

I purchased this little fireplace heater for my vintage Comet Travel Trailer. I absolutely love how small and compact it is. It creates a pleasant ambiance and heats effectively without taking up much space. I like that it doesn't overload my breaker and it has 2 heat settings. I can only say that when it's going, it definately brings a smile on my face and heats my small quarters with warmth and character. I would recommend this heater in spite of it not having an automatic thermostat to turn itself off.

I had purchased a different heater from a local store that overheated--after contacting the company, I was sent this replacement heater and loved it--it would be nice if it had a thermostat control, but other than that the flame is very pretty and it also heats the bedroom sufficiently--I liked it so much that I ordered an extra one on Amazon as a gift for future use--I would definitely recommend this heater!

Honest reviews on Comfort Zone® Mini Fireplace CZFP1

I wanted a small electric fireplace to install in my renovated Classic Shasta LoFlyte travel trailer however, the models I found had displays that were too large and they came in large prebuilt cabinets. During my web search I stumbled across the Comfort Zone space heater/electric fireplace for a great price. It turns out my next door neighbor had one so I checked the dimensions and checked out the fireplace function and was sold.

Once I received the unit I built a faux fireplace cabinet to place it in complete with a faux river rock face and hearth and a maple mantle, it fits perfectly in the rear of the trailer between the couch and dinette and looks and works great. The only thing missing was the fireplace sound so... I downloaded an hour of real fireplace recording onto my Android phone and installed 2 powered PC speakers in the cabinet and Presto! I have the look and sound of a real fireplace. Even if you're just buying it for the heater function alone... this is an attractive unit at a great price!

I purchased two of these bellows, one for home and one for cabin. It works very well and is a handsome design. It does exactly what a bellows should do. The air is directed right where you need it.

Pros: Works well, no air leaks, can be directed on embers you need to catch fire.

cons: A little small. It takes more pumping to get the fire going, but once it takes, you're set!

The color of the wood is exactly like the picture. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. I also had purchased the matching end tables and now considering buying the matching sofa table. One thing the description did not tell you, it has adjustable feet to set it level on any surface. The only bad thing I have to say is about the allen wrench they send to assemble the table, it is so poorly made it is just enough to do one table. I needed to use a new wrench with each table I put together, but that is a bad tool not a bad table.

I was a happy camper with this purchase. (I created my screen name when I wasn't so much.) It's beautiful, sturdy, and easy to put together. My only hang-up was stretching the "stretcher bars" (that connect the legs at the bottom), so my tip for that is to attach the legs loosely at first, and then tighten them once the stretcher bar is finished.

We purchased this to use in our screen porch as we didn't know if a propane based firepit would be safe. The Gel based fire bowl works great and as promised. The delivery only took a couple of days and the setup took about 5 min. We tested our new firebowl tonight and it was very simple to operate. We poured the gel into the two compartments and lit each side using a bic scripto lighter and the gel lit up instantly and created a very nice flame and crackle. We used one 29 oz bottle total split between the two sides and got approx 2 hours of burn. The firebowl looks great and works very well. The flames are not huge or create much for heat, but definitely create a nice "ambiance" fire for sitting around with friends or family. We would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing, no hassle fire in an area that doesn't allow for a wood or propane based fire.

I love this fire bowl. It is great because it comes with a cover and a snuffer to extinguish the flame. It looks like a quality product and looks great outside on my patio. I am planning to order another one.

I have a smaller patio where propane and wood burning not allowed, this fire bowl fit perfectly. When the bowl was filled with gel and lit, it threw off some heat but this fire bowl is meant for ambiance. This made the fall weather much more enjoyable! Just remember to measure the gel fuel according to how long you want the fire to burn. If you have to put it out early, the remaining gel is useless and won't re-light. The gel fuel bottles last a long time, we've used it several times and have barely gone through two bottles.

Honest reviews on Real Flame Hampton Fire Bowl

We've been wanting a fire pit for some time now but were hesitant due to the possibility of sparks from a wood fire. This fire bowl is a great substitute. It sets up very easily (just three screws) and looks really nice. The fire it produces crackles just like a wood fire and produces a little heat (although that was not our reason for purchasing it). It makes for a nice gathering spot. It is also very nice that it comes with a cover which fits perfectly. Only negatives: there were no instructions in the box; screws were too short and had to be replaced with our own; even though it's Amazon Prime eligible, it took a week to arrive (the fine print says it may take 1-2 extra days, but it was more like 5). The "grey" color is really more of a tan, but it looks like stone and that wasn't a deal breaker.

I ordered this from another source knowing that it did not come with the actual fireplace insert. Then I ordered the 18EF023GRA insert from Amazon (instead of the insert listed in Amazon's description) which worked great in this and is definitely a step up from the one listed to get and even at a lower price! I was very impressed with the quality of this stand and how sturdy it was. This is a substantial piece of furniture that looks great and will do the job nicely. The fireplace just really sets it off into something special. Just take your time assembling it from the nicely packed box using the very clear instructions, and I think you will also be pleased with the end result.
