Is Price Really A No-Brainer?



Do most people stop to think about the life cycle of their furniture? The price card trumps longevity in many cases - but do the math - if a sofa that is made properly and aesthetically designed to outlast fads were to last three times as long as one purchased only for it's low price, then not only is the landfill spared of excess waste, but the higher-priced sofa then becomes the lower-priced one over time. One might also conclude the better sofa will be enjoyed more and be comfortable for longer. This determination can be applied to almost all consumables. Maybe it even becomes a no-brainer.

Besides being portable (although some models can be built-in so they look and operate just like a traditional fireplace), another benefit with this fireplace is safety over gas fireplace. The risk of a gas leak is eliminated!
Cost savings is another plus. In new construction there is no need to construct a flue or run a gas line.
There are both complete fireplaces already designed and 'Burner Kits' for use in custom-designed fireplaces - many dramatic designs are possible. There are also 'Grate Ranges' for inserting into an existing fireplace.
