Very effective looking fire - unfortunately we needed it to have a surround of which there is not a specific one for this fire however with a bit of manipulation, one was made to fit so all in all, it worked out well. Very pleased with it so far - needless to say it hasn't been tried on the heat setting yet due to the hot weather!

This is a very smart, stylish and elegant fire but it is definitely up to the job and soon warms up the room.

I bought this to replace an old insert for a fireplace. Looking sleek and stylish. Really a good investment. The thermostat is really great switches on and off so there's a perfect temperature all the time.
