It's sturdy, heavy and nice to look at. Worth every penny. Not to mention all the other ones that I had looked at cost way more for less style and quality.

I received this fireplace set quickly and set it up by my new fireplace. I love it! It is well made and sturdy. And it is a beautiful set that looks very "high end" on the hearth!

Cheap Small 2-Door Finished Tubular-Steel Crest Fire Screen
The tools are fine but the screen has some issues. It looks beautiful, but it leans forward so we have to put something under the legs to make it flush with the opening. Also, the doors are held closed by a magnet. The magnet quit working after a few days of use. The doors close but there is nothing securing them now that the magnet failed. Very disappointed in this purchase.

Review of Caramel WoodWick Jar Candle - 10 oz.
Our friend has this candle, it is amazing. It makes her entire house smell like freshly baked pancakes with syrup, and after we leave, we still smell it on us for a while. The smell doesn't get stale, or overly sweet, just nice. The sound too is a bonus, it has a nice crakling sound when it's quiet, but if you are trying to watch TV, or listen to music it isn't too loud or distracting. I can't wait to try the other scents.

Great scent, strong, pleasing and very long lasting. The crackling effect is limited more like a hissing sizzle rather than a cracking wood fire, though it's still nice to listen to. 3 of these candles filled the house with a delicious aroma.Best Deals for Caramel WoodWick Jar Candle - 10 oz.

I bought it because my daughter was asking for a candle with a 'yummy" smell. The candle exceeded all expectation aromatic and strong, but not overwhelming smell one candle's aroma covers whole floor. I love the unusual wick that makes a crackling sound I find it very soothing. I will buy more candles for myself and as presents from WoodWick.Tuesday, September 30, 2014

This does NOT have candle spikes or even level cups. It came poorly packaged and in fact the front cup was bent way back. My hundand had to put it in a vise to straighten it out.

I have been looking for a fireplace candle holder for awhile and while I see many that are ok, nothing has been perfect. This is the one I keep coming back to...but the lack of dimensions were troubling me so I searched the whole web and found it elsewhere with a description that includes the dimensions ...sharing in case any one else is wondering. Prices on internet vary wildly, I'll likely use Amazon (even though not the cheapest) since I have had good experience with their resalers...This Victorian inspired candelabra measures 27 wide x 16 diameter and is 14 high. Candles not included. Ship Weight: 25.27 lbs.
Giving it a 3 star review bec Amazon insists I rate it..but I haven't seen it in person...review based on my liking the design better than any of the others and the lack of negative reviews.

Looks great, sturdy, well made. I've been using it for a while now and it still looks good. No rust, no corrosion. The perfect size to sit near our fireplace hearth. The bucket itself is about 5 1/4 inches tall (about 10 1/2 inches if you leave the handle upright) and about 6 1/2 inches wide, and comes packed with flatwood. Makes starting a fire so much easier. Fast shipping. Good purchase.

I purchased this set, largely because I found the design attractive and it matched reasonably well with my existing fireplace screen. I also wanted to have a larger broom. The set was heavy and reasonably well made, but the broom started to lose it's straw within the first season of use. By the second season, almost all of the straw had fallen out and I could not use the broom at all. Bottom line, I would not recommend this set unless the manufacturer can improve the broom.

Reviews of Rocking Chair Pad Set, Ranger Latte Solid Beige, Rocker Seat
This is a great cushion for a traditional rocking chair. The only gripe I have with it is that the seat cushion would be better if it had a way to secure it to the front of the seat in addition to the rear.

Review of Enclume Design Large Fire Center Rack
List Price: $370.99
Sale Price: $269.99
Today's Bonus: 27% Off
This was our house Christmas present. It's VERY attractive, and took 20 minutes to open, read directions and assemble. The different sizes let you pick exactly what fits in your space, and we chose the arch to complement the curves of the logs of the adjacent wall, and because we are older and if you stagger dumping wood into it you can grab it. It came with the necessary Allen wrench and an extra screw. 4 stars rather than 5 the screw assembly is flimsier than anticipated, with no real rigidity in something made of thick hammered steel (only one screw per leg or arm). We anticipate augmenting the fastenings and perhaps adding a brace. That will void the warranty:) but then it won't be necessary, because about the only thing that could fail are those short single button screws. I'd still recommend this highly for the design, and the astonishing amount of wood it holds, and the beautiful material nicely finished. It is made in the USA, too, in Washington State.

I bought this to seal my woodstove doors. It was very easy to install. First dry fit the rope to the door frame to get a measurement, cut the rope at the desired length, apply the cement to the stove seal channel and let tack up for ten minutes, install the rope, put newspaper between the doors and the new rope seal and close the dooors for atleast two hours. Viola, doors that don't leak air and waste fuel in the stove! I highly recommend!Friday, March 28, 2014
GreatCo 50" Gallery Linear Electric LED Fireplace. Includes LED Reviews
List Price: $1,099.00

Today's Bonus: 10% Off
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program GreatCo's 50" LED fireplace is a wonderful addition to my home. It gives off a great amount of heat, that can be controlled and put at various settings, and has warmed up a perpetually cold room. But more than that, this fireplace is just incredibly beautiful and really adds something special to the room. The rear back lighting creates a spectacular display and the 'fire' itself looks great, absolutely stunning. One minor drawback is that the instruction booklet wasn't as helpful as it could have been when mounting it, but other than that I am really impressed. If you are thinking of adding an electric fireplace to your home you should really consider GreatCo's fireplace. You will not be disappointed.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program When I hit the power button on the remote for the first time and this unit fired up, it lit up my bedroom and completely transformed the feel of the room. I felt I was in an expensive hotel room. I couldn't help but have a huge smile. I love it. The flames look real. The stones look like they are glowing orange hot. It's really surprising how real it looks. The unit is only about 5 inches deep, so it doesn't stick out far from the wall at all.The box is quite large but I was able to move it by myself (about the size a 50 inch TV would come in). The unit is very well packed and protected. The unit is in two main pieces that are a lot easier to move and carry than the box. I carried each of the two pieces upstairs and leaned them against my bed. The instructions were straight forward except for the fact that they said to take the mounting bracket out of the box. My mounting bracket was screwed to the main firebox and had to be removed so I could mount it to the wall. This was a good way to package it, it just was different than what the instructions said. The mounting bracket was over 32 inches wide and has screw hole every couple inches. This allows you to position it to hit two wall studs. That is what I did. You can also use the included drywall wall anchors. I like to hit a stud whenever I can.
I made sure the mounting bracket was level and attached it to the wall with 4 screws (included). Once that is on the wall installation is super easy. The firebox fits onto slots/hooks on the mounting bracket. Just lift it on and it stays there. Then replace the two screws that held the firebox to the bracket on the bottom. This assures that it will not come off the wall. You also need to remove a small access panel on the bottom of the firebox and pull out the larger of the two wires. The smaller one is for an in the wall installation kit. The wire will extend through the hole in the access panel, so the panel can be put back on. Now you put the included two sets of stones along the bottom of the firebox on the little slanted shelf. There is a set of clear plastic like stones and a set of white real stones. On the first layer I put one white stone then one clear stone. This used up all the clear ones. Then I added a second row on top of the first of the white ones. The clear stones will pick up the orange light and glow orange hot like coals. Pretty cool.
Next the front glass panel fits on the firebox it fits into another set of slots. Push the bottom of the glass in and it will snap two pegs into spring loaded brackets. Almost done. Now stick your head under the unit and connect the wire coming out of the access panel to the one on the back of the glass panel. Finally plug her in and stand back. Hit the power button on the remote and watch your room be transformed.
The remote is awesome. On it you can:
Select 1 of 4 flame modes. Mostly the brightness changes. And yes the flames look real. I was really surprised.
Select 1 of 12 back light colors including one that cycles through all of them as well as off.
Select a timer to turn the unit off after x hours (variable number). A sleep function like on your TV.
Turn the heater on Level 1 (750 watts) Level 2 (1500 watts) and off. You do not need to run the heater.
Set the thermostat for the heater.
The remote has an LCD display.
Notes:
Installation was easy for me. I used a drill, screwdriver, level, and stud finder (battery one and long finishing nail to confirm).
The instructions refer to the mounting bracket as if it is loose in the box. Mine was screwed to the fire box and had to be removed so it could be mounted on the wall.
There looks to be an add on kit for mounting this fireplace in the wall.
The instructions say the unit needs 13 inches of space on the bottom and none on the sides and top. Bottom is due to the heater.
The heater on the high setting will use all the power on a standard household circuit, so be aware of that so you're not blowing the circuit breaker all the time.
The firebox has power and mode buttons on the side.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I was really intrigued by this, because I've never seen a wall-mount LED fireplace before. "Would it look like a TV? Would it heat like a fireplace?" the anticipation nearly killed me.It showed up in a box that seemed to scream "I'm a 50" TV! STEAL ME!", though I happened to be home when it arrived. I was a bit surprised by how heavy it was -certainly heavier than a 50" LCD / LED television, arguably heavier than a similarly-sized plasma TV.
As far as looks go, I want to love this, and being an 80's kid, I absolutely do. It's like watching the Fire Channel on an HDTV, which reminds me of the old VHS aquarium tapes. The backlight is... prominent, making me want to fish out my old neon telephone, paint my walls turquoise and pink, and rock some Miami Vice: Season One. But therein lies a fairly serious problem. Even for contemporary style aficionados, it's hard to overcome the gadgety feel GreatCo seems to convey. And if you're not single and embracing your midlife crisis, you may find that your interior decorating committee objects to the style.
On the functional side, I was fairly impressed by how heat was radiating. It isn't like a fireplace, but it's less obvious than an electric space heater. Where it's just like an electric heater, is in the expense. Even with light usage, I noticed my electric bill climbing upwards.
In the right house with the right decor and the right person, you could pull this off. If you're not dead-on, you're going to find yourself stuck with a dangerously kitschy appliance that's expensive to run. Be careful, Crockett.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This fireplace works wonders on our mezzanine level of our converted loft home. The large second floor master-suite has about 450 sq. ft. but, does not have a radiator. This fireplace makes it toasty, there are two different heating levels to choose from. The flames look real and the ambient LED lighting looks great. installation is pretty straight forward, attach the bracket to the wall (first remove it from the fireplace), hang the main unit and attach the glass portion. Great addition to the room when adding a vented fireplace is not an option.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for GreatCo 50" Gallery Linear Electric LED Fireplace. Includes LED
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My box was delivered with a big dent in the front side where the glass was packed. When I opened the box, I fully expected the glass to be cracked or broken but it was perfect, which speaks highly for the shipping container.I was thinking this would be the size of a 50" TV but it is a bit larger. The dimensions are 50" wide and 26" tall, which is probably the size of a 55" TV. It can be mounted on or recessed inside the wall. Personally, I would never build something like this into the wall because if it ever breaks or you get sick of it, you now have a huge hole in the wall. Fortunately, it is pretty slim (6" deep) so mounting it on the wall is perfectly fine.
The instructions are definitely lacking but fortunately, it is pretty straightforward to install. To install, you will need a drill, 1/8" drill bit, Philips screwdriver bit and preferably a level and stud finder. Also, you will need a few paper towels and glass cleaner to clean the glass front. Be sure to clean the inside of the glass before you mount it as it is quite dirty from shipping. A helper is recommended but you could install this yourself if need be. The unit is quite heavy but the weight is mainly due to the glass front. The firebox is separate and that is what you mount to the wall. Once you mount and level the box, you add the included clear and white stones to the bottom frame, then the glass front hangs over and attaches to the box with 4 hooks and snaps into the bottom. You must connect the backlight cable before you snap the bottom into place. There are two screws to lock it in place and you are done. I would strongly advise against using the wall anchors, as this weights about 70 lb. so be smart and bolt it to two studs with the 4 screws (included).
The glass front is elegant and the look of the flame is more realistic than other electric fireplaces I've seen. From across the room, it looks fairly realistic. Up close, it is not going to fool anyone but I've never seen an electric fireplace that would.
The remote has a temperature display, which defaults to degrees Celsius. After pressing the power button, you can hold the temperature button for 3 seconds to change it to Fahrenheit. The remote also controls the flame brightness (toggles between 3 levels), heater high or low, backlight color and timer. You can also turn heat and flame on and off from 2 buttons on the right side of the unit.
Overall, this is a nice fireplace. I think it is expensive for what you get but the front is a piece of solid glass so I'm sure that is a good part of the cost. I took a star off for the terrible instructions and the fact that the mounting bracket was different from what was shown in the instructions. Also, the bracket for mounting inside the wall was not included, although the instructions said it was. I doubt many people will mount this inside the wall anyway.
