We bought our heat and Glo fire place five years ago and it still doesn't work. We've had Ambler technicians to our house multiple times and every time they insist that it is some minor issue that we're having and that they've fixed it. The heat and Glo model is terrible and very difficult to use. My favorite is when the remote freezes and says to call the dealer. Apparently you're supposed to restart it and override any error messages. It's a nightmare.
I also insisted when I bought it that I didn't want a remote and only after it was installed I was told it's the only way to operate. The batteries are always dying which is also fun when you want to snuggle up next to the fire.

While I love my log set, and their repairman does a good job, literally every year I have some sort of issue and it takes them WEEKS to send someone out. I just called today and they can't send someone til MARCH 15 - WINTER WILL BE OVER BY THEN I know that Covid causes delays, but this has been an issue for years, no matter what time of year you call. Almost every winter I lose precious weeks where I can't use my fireplace. PLEASE HIRE MORE TECHNICIANS!

Not a good experience. The guy working in the shop when I originally went in was not helpful at all and a bit condescending. Against my better judgement, I ordered doors for my fireplace that after further research seem very expensive comparatively. The screen doors have given me problems multiple times. I have had repair folks come out and the problems still remain
