I got the fireplace in early Feb. I had been looking at similar products (free standing, alcohol burning fire-things) for a few months. I live in Europe and the things available here (Made by Blomus and other companies) are extremely nice, well built and cost A LOT. (the Blomus model, most similar in appearance to this Gramercy cost over 1,000 Euro (about $1,500). That said...the Blomus was all heavy gauge stainless steel and looked like it would last forever.
The Gramercy looks good. It's just kind of "flimsy". The sheet metal that the Gramercy is made from just isn't real heavy. Is that a problem? It means your kids can't jump on it and you'd better never drop it. But for what it is meant to do...it looks like it will do it well.
..And it has. I've put about 10 quarts of Fuel through my Gramercy and it's doing pretty good. One thing you need to know is that these things eat fuel like a 67 Charger with a hemi engine. In order for you to get a nice little fire going, you need to leave the sliding door that controls the air flow all the way open. This gives you maximum flame. Not a huge flame, but nice. With the fireplace in this configuration, you'll run through a quart of fuel in about 2 hours.
The Good: Fireplace looks good...works fine and costs A LOT less than similar products. Most importantly - Peter, who appears to run things at Anywhere Fireplaces, worked VERY hard to ensure I was a satisfied customer. Kudos to this company's customer service!
The Bad: Eats fuel, but they ALL will. Also, flimsy construction.
