I was interested first in heat, 2nd on looks, so I was quite impressed with the ceramic logs. My fireplace is vented so I didn’t have to decide on that. The Hargrove H burner supplied a very natural looking flame. That night I researched on the internet and thought I’d found a bargain, but by the time I added everything I needed and wanted, it added up to more than the price at Bachle’s and I would have to install them. In the end I chose the Cross Timbers set for their super realistic look. They were installed a few days later and look and function even better than I hoped. Their price is all-inclusive, no surprise add-ons. The only«extra» I chose was those really cool«bright» embers.
