There was a newspaper article here about this being a rip-off. One guy said he ordered two of them and he did get the first one with the mantel, but the second showed up with just the heater insert. Another said they never received the one they ordered. I am always leery of these commercials that blow their own horns a little too loud (outlandish claims).

Ah yes well to each his own kind of fun. I don't mind cleaning up the sawdust. That other job I lack the desire to ever do again.

A 1500watt $30 heater from Menards heats the same as a 1500watt $400 heater from a con artist. Anybody with a brain knows that, but there seem to be a shortage of people with working brains in the US today.
