Dark wood electric fireplace with remote control. This unit is 3-4 years old and has been lightly used during that time. It has a space heater function along with the fireplace feature. The level of noise it produces when the heater it turned out is comparable to a small space heater – not overly loud and fades into the background. The level of heat it produces and the length of time it is on for is adjustable by remote or manually on the unit.
