Under the wife's instructions I'm having to iunstall a fireplace, we have the mantel and hearth picked out but are having trouble with the fire itself. We are limited to an electric one as I refuse to channel through the concrete floors for gas but I would like it to look as good as possible. There seems to be a wide variety in the realism of the flame effect, with some looking very cheap and cheesy. Can anyone recommend a make or range that doesn't look too bad I know it will never look as good as the real thing, but it will have to do for now. (SWMBO likes the traditional brass style with frets etc and not the sexy new chrome/steel ones)
Thanks Jim
