The fireplace arrived in 3 large boxes...I am 78 years old and was able to put this together myself without any problems, except for lifting the mantle on top...I live alone and new in the area where I live and the only people I know are my age and not able to lift this 75 lb. piece so I pondered for about an hour and then my lawn man showed up...he saw what I was doing and offered his assistance...he was able to lift and put on top by himself and the rest I was able to complete (putting in the fireplace insert). Probably took about 2 hr. of work. I used moving sliders to get the boxes to the living room floor where I opened the boxes as needed and laid out the parts. Very easy to follow the directions and went together perfectly. Biggest problem was cleaning up the packing as the foam pieces cling to every piece including your clothing. The flame is as real as you can get with a freestanding electric fireplace and the opening of the glass enclosed firebox is large enough to make it look like a real fireplace. All in all I am extremely happy with this purchase except for one spot that was damaged in shipping as the box was dented just a little...I haven't contacted customer service yet as I have been very busy with other things. Some matching touch-up paint would be nice hopefully customer service will provide. As you can see I have my tv on top which is fine; however, I have a handyman coming in a couple of weeks to put it on the wall above and run the wiring down through the wall and out to the electric plugs below. Perfect finishing touch to my living room. Update: contacted Real Flame and they have taken care of the situation and I must say that they responded quickly and took action quickly. Give them a 5 star for their customer service.
This is the most beautiful electric fireplace - large enough to look like a real one. The flames are really pretty and there are so many options - with or without heat, with or without extra lighting, dimming coals, height of flames. I love it!
This is a beautiful piece. Easy to assemble very rich looking 55" long and height just perfect I have a 52 inch flat screen above it
I love using it on cold nights, although it can be used without heat just for the ambience. The size is comparable to a real fireplace in an average home (not a mansion).The assembly was not difficult. One reviewer said she needed help in mounting the mantel on top, and although I could do it, it would have been easier with help, I am over 70. There is a remote for on-off, temperature control and high flame and low flame. This is a very convenient feature.
My husband and I use our electric Kennedy Grand White Fireplace to boost our heat pump. we love the savings on our electric bill. The quality of this piece is amazing.
After reading previous reviews I decided to purchase this electric fireplace/heater. I was not disappointed. At times, I forget the flames are electric, it's that realistic looking. I had a friend come over to see it, and she has now decided to purchase an electric fireplace instead of going to the cost of building one. It does arrive in 3 large and heavy boxes. I took one reviewer's advice and had the UPS man bring it into my home and place them where I was going to assemble it. I also would recommend having a second person to help lift the firebox out of it's packaging and placing it in the designated area when the mantle is built. It took two people to get the firebox aligned, but I assembled the sides of the mantle by myself, and could have used help to place the top of the mantle on the box (it's quite heavy and long), but I did do it by myself. I'm very pleased with the product, the way it adds heat to the room, and the way it looks. I have recommended it to several people already, and have no negatives about the entire experience.
I would recommend this to anyone that wants an electric fireplace
I love my fireplace! It arrived 1 day earlier than expected (3 boxes). What surprised me the most was the ease of assembly. It's very sturdy, and I placed my 50 or 55" television on the mantel. I am exceptionally pleased with my purchase! I assembled by myself, but will admit it would have been helpful to have someone assist with placing the mantle on top. I was so excited to complete the task, therefore too impatient to wait for assistance. To allow for ease of movement and to prevent scratching my floor, I assemble using one of the thin styrofoam packing styrofoam (16" x 54'). This was very helpful, so much that, I decided to purchase a piece of white particle board with the same dimension to place the fireplace on top. I placed several small adhesive furniture movement pieces underneath the board. The fireplace is very stable on the board. It gives an additional height, and also allows for easy mobility of the unit without scratching my floor. I would definitely recommend this fireplace. I haven't tried the heater feature yet. In terms of damage to the product during shipment, I did not notice any damage. The black wood trim on one side didn't fit completely flush, meaning there was a fraction of a gap on one side. This didn't bother me because it's only noticeable to me, but still acceptable. Overall, I can't stop stating how satisfied I am!
The fireplace arrived quickly and set up was just as easy. The flames look real. Makes the room feel cozy
This fireplace is perfect. We bought it for our living room in white, it is bright white and beautiful! The flames look as real as they can for an electric fireplace, the motor is quiet, and the construction is sturdy. If you are considering this one, go for it!
This fireplace looks good and is easy to assemble The measurements are exact as the description says. Be careful on the wet if you are using this fireplace for an existing space because the width is based on the top of the mantle not through the middle of the unit.
This is the most realistic flame in an electric fireplace that we have ever seen! The ability to control brightness, height, and temp make this a beautiful fireplace when the real thing is not feasible. I am over joyed that we waited (due to out of stock) rather than go 2nd choice. We love it. It was easy to assemble!
I searched online for a long time, trying to find an electric fireplace that would not look like a miniature rendering of a real fireplace. This item not only looks real, due to its large size, but the piece looks beautiful in our family room. Looks much more expensive than it was. It was also easy to put together. Haven't used it for heat yet, but the display is lovely. If the heat feature doesn't work well when it's needed to warm the chill, I'll modify my review. For now...very happy with this purchase.
Absolutely love this fireplace. It is made of wood and looks and works great. It added a nice touch to my living room.
Instantly changed the feel of the room. Beautiful and classic look. Had to cut out the baseboard for a flush-with-the-wall fit; otherwise, there is a good one inch space between the wall and fireplace. I am very satisfied with the purchase. Even the dog enjoys the fireplace.
The Kennedy Grand is the perfect addition to my sunroom. I love the style and size, especially the oversized fireplace insert. I highly recommend!
I absolutely love this fireplace. Didn’t take long for my husband and grandson to put it together, we used it all winter.
This is a quality product. Absolutely beautiful both on and off. Assembly was not difficult and did not take long. Very pleased!!
I almost did not buy my home because it did not have a fireplace. It was a "must-have." After much research I decided this fireplace would be perfect and much safer than a gas fireplace. Not only does this model give me the visual aesthetics I love, it can provide actual heat when needed! Everyone thinks it is a REAL FIREPLACE! I Iove the remote- No mess or fuss for a beautiful "fire." Tip: We did cut away part of our wood baseboard to fit the unit solid against the wall for a built-in look. My 24 year-old son put it together in an hour with a buddy. The large size of this adds to the authentic appearance. Worth the $$!
Fireplace is just as described. Ordered the white again a light gray wall. 65" TV needs to be mounted yet above the fireplace. It was easy to put together (less than an hour) and looks great in the living room. The room is large so I usually run the blower on the highest setting 99 degrees. It slightly heats the room but I would not say it provides a warm heat for a 14 x 24 foot room. Would highly recommend.
