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.
