This is a short and sturdy tool. You will need to put your hand in to the fireplace/stove to reach ash/coals in the back. Some of the paint and all of the labels will burn off in a hot fire but this doesn't seem to have any effect except for a little extra smoke. I would have preferred a tool about 6 inches longer but it was not available in this style. Overall a good purchase.

Put this fireset in the kids room (they have their own fireplace). They love the way it looks and the tools get the job done.

This set is heavy and needs to be assembled but worth it.

It's stable and very nice looking once put together.

Great for a smaller fireplace (I bought it for my sister who owns a small condo). Definitely a conversation piece as well as functional.

I hope to be able to buy another one for my home soon.

I have a one bedroom apartment with an unheated bathroom. This small heater fits in perfectly, heats this space (and more) easily, quickly efficiently and safely. This was an ideal solution for me. Thank you.

For the price this is the perfect fan for us. It is space conservative yet serves the purpose for which it was bought. Quiet sounded.

Despite the warnings and cautions printed in the directions, I use this little heater in a very cold, corner bathroom that often falls into the 50's on really cold days. Yes, on the highest setting, this little heater is an energy eater, but when in a really cold bathroom I don't care.

My bathroom is large and adjoins a closet so it takes some oomph to warm the room. This little heater does the trick, though when taking a shower or shaving in there, I need to turn the heater on at least 15 minutes early.

The fan on this heater is a little noisy, but not obtrusively so. Once the room warms up, I turn the heater down to the lower setting to save a little energy with no noticeable discomfort to me.

The filter on the back of the heater gets dirty quickly and needs to be vacuumed or washed. Since the back plate is screwed on, I'd often neglect this chore rather than have to fetch a screwdriver. I finally just removed the little screw and left it off. Now the filter is more easily accessible and more often cleaned.

My main reasons for buying this heater were its reduced price at the end of the season and its small size. Perfect for a bathroom. One must take great care when using this appliance in a bathroom. Also be aware that the front screen gets rather hot and can burn.

I've had this heater for over a year (purchased in October 2009).

I've used it a fair bit, but not a whole lot.

I've used it for heating small rooms (about 20 square meters; i.e. 200 square feet).

It does that very successfully. I haven't tried larger spaces.

It has worked perfectly.

The heat is good.

The fan is smooth and not very loud.

The casing feels sturdy.

It's small, so easily portable.

It has two controls: a switch controlling the mode (off/fan/low/high), and a fader which controls the thermostat.

Modes: "off" is what it says; "fan" just blows the fan without heat; "low" and "high" generate heat (at 1000W or 1500W respectively) and blow the fan.

Thermostat: The heater will automatically turn off if it gets too hot. The thermostat sets the temperature that equals "too hot". The control is gradual.

The controls are easy to use and haven't had any problems.

The mode switch has a motion which is a little soft (when it's in one position, it can move around that position a little). So it feels like it *might* eventually break, but that's only speculative so far it's been fine.

Overall, I'm very satisfied.

I'd tried just about every space heater in this price range. None of them had a thermostat that would go to the set temperature the second time. (A thermostat, once set, should heat to about the same temperature every time.) Because a reviewer said the thermostat on this unit was good, I purchased one. The room to heat was my bathroom, about 80 sq ft, no windows, door closed, interior location away from outer walls. It took a LOT of patience to arrive at the initial preferred setting--80 degrees after turned on about one hour. After that, the second time the unit was turned on for an hour, temps ranged from 72 degrees to 90 (it might have gone higher had I not shut it off.) An obliging local retailer allowed me to try four units in turn. None had a better thermostat. I suspect the different Chinese heater manufacturers source the same thermostats. I rate it one star because space heaters without thermostats are available for less, and it is very noisy. (Please don't tell me how wonderful the thermostats on your Pelonis work. I congratulate you on your good fortune. These were my experiences.)

I was pleasantly surprised at how sturdy this chimney cap is when I took it out of the box. It is much nicer than the deteriorated 15 year old one that it has replaced, and it installed in a few minutes with one screwdriver. We have had some very strong winds and heavy rain in the midwest this spring and it has not budged since I put it on. The house has two other chimneys and when those caps need replacing I will stick with this brand.

At some point after our home was built 40 years ago, the previous owner had new flues installed (3 of them) in the very large field stone chimney that is in the center of the house. Unfortunately when the flue for the wood-burning stove was installed it was placed flush with the chimney crown, placing it at the same level as the two fire place flue "openings." The entire chimney was then covered with a large chimney cap with side mesh. Since we use the wood-burning stove to supplement our heating system during some very cold northeast winters, cresote buildup was always an issue even though we use Anti-Creosote religiously. My husband redid the crown and replaced the large chimney cap with a smaller one that fit over just the two fireplce flues, raised the "problem" flue with a clay chimney pipe and placed the adjustable Chimney 14850 Homesaver Pro Chimey Cap on it. Although the entire project took him several days, putting the Pro Chimney Cap on took less than 30 minutes! Although we haven't used the stove yet we are confident our creosote problems (and safety problems) are over. He did a lot of research into what type of cap would work best for us and was within our budget. Both of us are pleased we chose this one.

Did some shopping around at the local big box home stores and several specialty fireplace stores and was fairly unimpressed with the offerings. The big boxes had very limited offerings of quite flimsy and cheap looking sets. And while the fireplace stores had great offerings, the starting prices were in the high $200s. So I was left looking for something in the middle not cheap, but not breaking the bank as well. I also wanted something with some heft like the toolsets I remember my family having (whatever happened to those I wonder).

Anyway, the Uniflame set offered a good compromise it was a good price, solid construction, and a classic look. I might have wanted it be a little heavier, but it was close to what I was looking for in a toolset. It's made in China and I would have preferred made in the US.

All in all, a set that offers a good pricepoint and good quality.

Just got this little 12v. pot for heating water, soup, etc. and didn't expect much since I had a recent bad experience with a 12v. coffee maker that, after waiting over an hour for something to happen, didn't work at all. Well, I was pleasantly surprised! This litle unit is well-made and has some very nice features, such as being able to remove the pot from the base for easy cleaning. I also like the fact that, as well as an "on" light, the pot lights up with a white light to let you know that it is seated correctly on the base. It also has a nice safety feature in that it will shut off if there's not enough water, so it won't "burn dry." Best thing, though, is that it really does work! It does take longer with 12v. units, but that's to be expected. However, in less than half an hour the water was bubbling merrily away! I am very pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend it.

I purchased this unit as my wife and I love the "coffee on the go" mode and figured to save a few bucks in the long run on the expensive Convenience Store drinks. So far, and that includes three vehicles, we have blown the fuse every time that we plug the RoadPro into the cigarette lighter. I am approaching half the cost of the unit in replaced fuses. I'm not saying that the unit will not work, in fact I believe that it will do what it claims if you can get the proper power to it. For many vehicles, it will require a heavier wire to be routed from the battery to a seperate 12 volt outlet. This takes the convenience away and adding new wiring to the vehicle adds cost to the use of the RoadPro.

Being an over-the-road driver I carried one of these for awhile in order to make coffee and hot cereal. It actually heats pretty well, and is a much better product than the previous one I had. However after about 3 months of 3-4 times a week use, it started to leak through the base and into the heating element. After that it quit completely. As this happened with 2 of these in a row, I tend to believe it's a design flaw. For occasional use, it's probably well worth it, but if you use it regularly, expect to replace it every couple of months.

We depend upon our wood stove for winter heat, and getting wood fires started quickly has become much easier since we discovered Seymour Fire Blox. No more diesel or kerosene, no more pitch sticks, no more bellows to coax an unwilling fire--these little squares are so dependable and fast. We don't need kindling anymore, either; we go straight to the larger pieces of wood and place a lit square between the bottom logs before piling on the other logs. I was skeptical of the claim that even damp wood will light and catch fire, but it's true. Unlike other fire starters I've tried, Fire Blox are odorless and get a fire started every time, the first time. This box of 24 would be a good size to find out whether you like the Fire Blox. I order the larger, more economical boxes of 144 squares from Virginia Radiant.

Since my husband's stroke I have been the one to start our fire in the fireplace. He always split pine and used it as starter. I did for the first winter. Last winter I was in a fireplace store and ourchased your product. I ran out and as it was quite aways from home and my husband could not be left alone never went back and tried two other brands. I decided to order from the Internet and wow one brick is all I need and a fire starts everytime. I was using two and one day I used only one and it started. I will never buy a different kind. Thanks for a great product.

Use Kwik Shot every winter. Tried others but nothing found to be better or easier.We heat only by seasoned hardwood with inside wood stove. Makes chimney cleaning easy and keeps chimney dry which means SAFE. No wet kreosote to burn or try to brush thru. No chimney FIRES! Really works. We clean chimney maybe twice a winter and get a five gallon bucket full at most and it's all dry. Use two sticks the first week then one a week. Sometimes when it's not so cold spring and fall and I burn slow I use two a week or ten days.Normal burning only one a week. I buy a box for about forty bucks and it lasts a winter and then some. Keeps well and just throw in hot burning fire for ten minutes and your done. Would not burn without them. Be SAFE and use these or something.

I would highly recommend this item to everyone who has a wood burning fireplace or stove.

We use our fireplace a lot during the winter months, not so much for heating but for ambiance, and we have it cleaned annually by a certified chimney sweep. But during the burning season, we use a chimney cleaning log about mid-January or so and one at the end of the season. In between, a Kwik-Shot on a weekly basis, and we always get an A-plus from the chimney sweep and a "keep doing what you're doing."

This definitely is a product that works!!! And buying in bulk is a money saver.

It burned and sparkled as promised. Burned only one so I'm not quite sure of any benefits. When I bought it I misread the ad and was expecting more than 1 stick. I gave it a low rating because it would be expensive for me to use for continued maintenance. I went back and bought a 2lb tub of the powder. Hopefully I'll be happier.

I purchased the Dimplex DF3015 firebox to fit in a fake mantelpiece that I had up against a bedroom wall. The firebox measurements on the Dimplex literature were very accurate and I was able to easily modify my mantle's opening and its distance to the wall in order to accommodate the firebox. I purchased the unit here on Amazon and the vendor was Wayfair. A salesperson from Wayfair called to state that I would have to remove the unit from the tractor trailer myself and that I should have help on that date. Fortunately, when the truck arrived, the driver stated that this was not true and he brought the item to, just inside my front door, as opposed to curbside, so that was a pleasant surprise.

As far as the unit itself, I did notice a growling noise after about one week when the flame speed was set to very high or very low. The flame speed adjustment on the remote has 9 settings and the noise occurred on setting 1 and setting 9. I removed the front glass and the log set and found that the noise was coming from the area of the flicker motor and flicker rod. I called Dimplex and they sent me a new flicker motor. Interestingly, the new motor came with a rubber piece to connect between the motor and flicker rod. On the one I had from the factory, the flicker rod shaft is connected to the motor with a flexible metal spring. On the replacement parts, they instruct you to cut most of this spring off and to use the rubber piece to connect the motor to the flicker rod. I believe that they are using this rubber piece to insulate and prevent vibrations from the motor from traveling up the flicker rod and vibrating it as an assembly inside the firebox.

Regardless, I changed the motor and the rod and added in the new rubber piece. Dimplex claims you can cut the 5 wires to the flicker motor and splice in the new motor with electrical quick connectors that come in the replacement kit. This seems to be a Mickey Mouse way of replacing a part in a brand new 899.00 firebox. As a result, I went a step further and removed the back glass inside the firebox (its a tight fit) and was able to find the control board that the harness plugs into. (A complete .pdf service manual is available on the Dimplex web site). Then I was able to just 'plug in' the new motor (the replacement motor does come with a complete harness with plug if you don't want to cut the wires and splice it in).

With that done I would say that the problem was 95% resolved. On speed 9 there is, not a growl, but sort of a slight clicking sound now with the new parts installed but it was not enough to be concerned and I like the look of the flame on the lower speeds anyway.

The heater is claimed to be a 1500 Watt type but that is sort of a misnomer. With a Watt Meter I was able to see that the heater operates on a low and high mode depending on what the thermostat reports (the thermostat is actually in the remote control so watch were you place that so you do not get false readings). When the unit calls for low heat a 600 Watt heater is activated and a low speed fan. When the unit calls for high heat the units supplies 1200 Watts and a high speed fan. The fan is fairly quiet on both settings which is a plus for bedrooms. The unit does draw about 200 Watts when the flame effect is on and no heat is desired so at full heat the entire units draws about 1400 Watts (1200 of which is heater element output). A dedicated 15 AMP circuit is ideal but may not be necessary as the unit draws about 12 AMPS at full power.

The remote control shows a digital display of actual room temperature (sensed in the bottom vent hole of the remote) and it shows the desired temperature you want the room to be. If desired temperature is 1 or 2 degrees higher than actual room temperature, the low temp heater and low speed fan will activate. If desired temperature is 3 or more degrees higher than actual room temperature than the high temp heater and high speed fan will activate. Once the desired temperature is reached the heater and fan will stop but the flame effect stays on until the power to the unit is shut off.

The flame appears very realistic and you almost think that it is a real fire. If you want the fire without the heater operating you simply dial down the temperature on the remote to a lower temperature than the room you are and it the heat will stay off but the flame effect will be on. This model also has Purefire which is simply an air filter that the air is drawn through anytime the fan is on. To filter the air you can have the fan on low or high without the heater by simply activating the Purefire button on the remote. Actually, the Purefire uses the same low/high speed fan that is used when the heat is activated. So anytime the fan is on (via heat or Purefire) the air is always drawn through the special filter. Another words, whenever the fan is on the air in the room is being filtered.

There is also a button on the remote that will activate a dimmer for the fire box's inside top back lights. This can add to the effect of the fire and make the firebox look somewhat deeper. The remote has a sleep timer setting which will shut the entire unit off. This is selected from 30 min to 8 hours and at any 30 min interval between.

For safety the main power switch can be shut off (if you don't mind bending down all the time as it is on the very bottom right front of the fireplace). I mention this because at first I was not bothering to shut this main power switch, I was just shutting the unit off with the remote power button. Then I discovered that my cats were walking on the remote and turning the fireplace on at times. As a workaround, I had an electrician make the outlet I use (behind the firebox) a 'switched outlet' so I simply shut the wall switch now when the unit is not going to be used.

We purchased this Dimplex firebox and the oak mantel individually. We didn't like the cheaper firebox that Dimplex had switched to. The DF3015 is very attractive, although I have seen more realistic looking flames. Don't buy it for the heat. There isn't much there. Shipping from Wayfair was very fast, and when I had a small problem with the trucking company, Wayfair customer service took care of it right away. I would have given it 5 stars if it didn't seem overpriced.

I bought one of these for work. It lives in an office breakroom and gets plenty of use. In this environment, you want the biggest one you can get, or the easiest to refill. 5L is a win. Ease of refill on this unit is so-so if your spigot or whatever can't clear its tall height. It boils, gets to temp, and maintains temp just great. The lid removes for easier fill. Easy to tell how full/empty it is. I like the magnetic power coupling a lot. Has settings for 208, 195, and 175 deg F enough flexibility, although the 175 is a touch hot for green tea. Weakness: the "timer" has only one setting: "off now, and then turn on (to stay) 7 hours from now." This timer is essentially a not-very-funny joke. There is no real time clock, no auto-on, no auto-off. Uses about 50W to keep water hot (the 4L CV-DSC40 is better insulated but more expensive). Has a handle for carrying (even hot & full) and has a built-in turntable underneath. Unit is completely satisfactory and good enough to make me want a better. Also won't go back to traditional kettle.

After reading reviews on several products by Zojirushi as well as other companies, I sought out this particular model as having a particularly large capacity. The viewing window on the side is as simple as it gets for knowing when to fill it up, and it goes from five liters of tap-chilly water to near-boiling in a matter of minutes. The three temperatures are perfect for different applications -208F for black tea, hot chocolate, instant coffee, and filling pots for quick, lazy pasta; 195F for red teas and hardy green teas; and 175F for delicate greens, whites, and most herbals. It's also great for cleaning in the kitchen a bit of nearly boiling water on a paper towel makes stuck on eggs and ground-in floor grime come right up.

Visually, this is a compact, attractive product that can sit right on your counter with your coffee maker and toaster oven. The exterior cleans up easily with a little soap and water, and the cleaning packets that Zojirushi makes get out the built up calcium deposits from hard water simple as pressing a button. Also, unlike many, similar models, this hot water pot has button, rather than pump dispensing, so there are fewer moving parts to break down or catch grease in a kitchen.

My only slight quibble is that the "sleep" mode lasts seven hours, with no ability to program it to be longer or shorter, but it's always nice to wake up to fresh coffee, tea, and oatmeal in the morning.

I have this water dispenser for around 4 years. It simply works.

But I recently measured the energy consumption of it using Kill-A-Watt.

It runs on 830 Watt when it boils water and 87 Watt when it keeps the water warm.

This can be costly if you already reach the so-called Tier-3 electricity usage zone (30%-200% of baseline quantity).

My husband and I bought this water dispenser and we are so happy with it, that we are buying another one. We use ours multiple times a day. If you are a tea drinker or like hot water on hand all the time, THIS IS the hot water dispenser for you. You can hold water temp at 175, 195 or 205, also you can add small amounts of cold water to bring the temperature down for even more fragile green teas. Water boils fairly quickly after filling no complaints from me. We had a 3 L boiler at one time but found we had to fill it to often and much prefer the 5 L model :)

These space heaters will turn off for various reasons. I live in a leaky apartment with no heaters. This is enough to heat a small apartment like mine, but as of this morning I have absolutely had it with this heater. This is the coldest it's been this winter and I can't have this thing turning off while I'm sleeping. That's the whole reason I woke up and am writing this; I hate waking up with scratchy lungs from the freezing cold. I'm giving this product 3 stars because some of you might want a space heater that turns it's self off. I have noticed that it will turn off for the the following reasons: if it falls over onto it's face (which is great because who wants their floor to melt?), if there is anything too close in front of it, and if their is too much moisture in the air.

I purchased this around November 2012 and it died today while burning it's plug and my wall socket. I will have to replace the wall plugs and return the heater. It was a noisy heater, yes but it did get warm. It was NOT on when it somehow started to burn on half the plug. Thank goodness I smelled burning plastic and unplugged it before any actual fire. I will not buy this brand again if I can help it.

I have not had the problems that Moniker reports in another review. In an effort to keep down heating costs, I've decided to try space heaters this year, and so far, the Pelonis heater has worked perfectly. I've kept it on almost all the time. This does not mean that it's been pouring out heat the entire time. For much of the time, it's been idle, waiting for the temperature to dip low enough to cause the heater to come on. And it's worked perfectly.

I use this heater in a relatively small room--about 120 square feet--with small animals that I don't want exposed to too much cold at night. So far, all is great. I have two minor quibbles, but they are truly minor, at least when compared to the cost (under $20 when I bought it). The first quibble is that the thermostat is not very accurate, and there is no degree setting, meaning that I cannot set the thermostat for 74 degrees or anything like it. I have to set the thermostat by feel. The second quibble is that the fan itself is not all that strong. I've tried to use just the fan in order to test it, and let's put it this way: I don't think I'll be using this heater in the summer to try to keep cool. Still, as a heater for a small room, it's worked perfectly.

One additional note: As I write this, there is one other review, which reports that the fan shuts off if there is too much moisture in the air. I live in a dry climate, so I cannot say one way or the other whether excessive moisture presents a real problem.

At first I was very happy with this mantel. It gave us the exact look we wanted, until we stained it. I knew going in Pine does not accept stain great but there is so much wood filler and glue alll over this thing that you do not see when it is unfinished. Then when you rub the stain on there are huge areas that the stain won't stick to. Now I have no choice but to paint it:( Very disappointed.

I received my mantle in great condition. I opened the box and was in awe. I ordered the already stained rustic and for my application, it is amazing. I have to say for my application, if I were to have used only the shelf hanger it would have been very easy install. I chose to use the hanger and the corbels which I had to modify. I love the result though. The corbels in my opinion make the mantle come to life. Be advised it is NOT a solid block of wood. It is a hollow frame of thick pine. I can't be positive but I thought the description said"solid".

I would buy this again. Huge improvement from what the house had.

This beautiful mantel shelf has totally transformed what I previously thought was an ugly fireplace. I almost didn't buy the house because of it. I was hesitant to buy a shelf online, but trusted Amazon, so I went ahead with the purchase. It is easy to install, only taking about 30 minutes once you decide where to hang it, and is very sturdy. The corbels that come with it put the finishing touches on it. My fireplace has now become the beautiful focal point of my living room! Everyone raves about it. The rustic oak I selected from Pearl Mantels was just what it needed for the transformation! I'm so happy.

The mantle was exactly the right size for my fireplace and I like it. It is nicely finished but does not look as "rustic" as I had hoped. The "distressing" is obviously new and too regular to convince anyone the wood came from anywhere except the lumber yard.

Despite that, it suits my needs well as well as my pocketbook. It was quite easy to install and is secure enough to use without the supplied corbels. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a large (5') mantle that is well proportioned and well made.

What a beautiful space heater. This heater throws a lot of heat and it's attractive. We've installed it in our finished basement that has no other source of heat (this is upstate NY people) and the heater keeps the room toasty. Well made, can't say enough about how much we like this heater.

This is a very nice electric fireplace for the money! It added a lot to our living room! The only thing I would have liked to see would have been a setting on the remote for the thermostat.

I bought this item for my parents.It took 3 shipments to get one that didn't have broken glass doors. It was sent in two boxes but Amazon only sent 1 return shipping label. After numerous phone calls they finally understood and sent another. This happened with both of the returns.The product(once we got one that wasn't broken)worked well.My parents love the look and the warmth it produces.

Sadly, my fireplace was shipped without a piece, the bracket to hold the glass panel in. The panel still fits snug, and until I get the piece from Customer Service, it seems to stay in place fine anyway. The flame effect is surprisingly,very good. I did not expect it to be as life-like as it turns out. The heater is very quiet, and actually warms both my living room and dining room, an area approximately 30 x 15, to a comfortable degree. I agree with the poster above that a separate setting for the thermostat and flame would have been great. Also, since it is RF, it doesn't work with my Harmony One remote, but the remote is small and only has an "on" and an "off" button. One strange thing, I looked on the Dimplex site, and can not find this model. Even if it was a closeout, shouldn't they still list the model?

I received this last evening. It arrived in two large boxes and required assembly. It is the assembly instructions that prevent me from giving the fireplace 5 stars. While the mantle/hearth was relatively intuitive, the fireplace connections to the hearth were separate and not as simple as they could have been. There is little good instruction regarding the installation of the glass front (which was pristine upon arrival).

Now to the good: Wow! The fireplace, both wood and fake fire are top quality when compared to others I've seen in big box retailers and it was considerably less money.

The remote turns on and off the unit only which makes good sense to me. The only reason I would have to adjust the thermostat would be if I were to move the fireplace to a different room. The thermostat is easily adjustable and the flame and heat can be controlled separately. The noise made from the unit is less than the space heater I'd been using in the basement and is certainly far more attractive.

I'm very pleased with the quality, fit, finish and look of this unit and I expect to enjoy it for years to come.

UPDATE: I've had this heater for almost two years now (12/12)and while I will admit that the heater has gotten a bit noisier, it's still more quiet than most other free-standing heaters. The flame and all other components are as good as the day I put it together. It heats well and the flames are as vibrant as ever.

Still Recommended!
