## Before you buy

- The listing's installation field says freestanding or wall mount, while feature text also describes recess fitting. Confirm the selected installation and fit dimensions before planning a media-wall opening. Temperature is stated as 18-27 degrees in feature text, with no unit in that claim. The description of the fuel-bed choices also varies between three options and four decoration options. The stated heat output and two heater settings are not reconciled with each other in the listing.
