First trip with it, temps got into the low 40's. Turned it on in the evening and then again in the morning and it actually worked as advertised. Took the rest of the trip to get my foot out of my mouth.MNRon wrote:
Had one in our HH. Before getting it I thought it was crazy. After using it a fireplace was a โmust haveโ in our current camper.
They are basically a large expensive electric heater. But do add some ambiance, and we use it all the time to take the chill out in morning or evenings.
Couldnโt have said it better myself. Exactly how I feel.

My wife insisted on one when we ordered our DRV. I wanted more storage.
It's actually functional.

The fire place produces the exact same 1500 Watts or 5100 BTUH on the 15 amp circuit that a 1500 Watt ceramic heater produces. It is a big expensive space waster that is fixed to one location. I would rather have the storage space and carry a small cube heater that is stored out of the way when we do not need it.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

We have fireplaces in both the living room and the bedroom and use them both frequently. I changed out both of the plugs that they use to a heavier unit that doesn't get hot under use.
We also use Cheap Heat electric heater in place of the propane furnace. It gives a more even heat throughout the trailer. Depending on the electric rate, the cost difference is negligible and I don't have to lug heavy propane bottles around.
