As you can see from the photo this is an electric fire in excellent condition with flame effect. The fire works well . The remote function can be used to light the flame effect and switch on the heat . The only problem is that you have to switch it off manually . There are a few switches on the underside of the overhang to control other functions. It has only been used for display so the heating function has never been used. It is about 10 to 15 years old but has no dents or scratches to be seen.
