4.0 out of 5 stars Good Substitute for the Real Thing, October 28, 2000

This review is from: 3 Hour Original Video Fireplace [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Since we already own the one-hour Video Aquarium, we thought it would be nice to have the Fireplace for our winter parties in our basement. We didn't like having to rewind Aquarium during our parties, so when we saw a three-hour Fireplace, we bought it. We decided to buy the "generic" Fireplace instead of the "Christmas Yule Log" with Christmas music, because we can play our favorite Christmas CD's along with the crackling fire on the tape. Our only criticism is that the crackling seems a little overly enhanced. It sounds like a forest fire instead of a lazy fire.

One thing I miss about living in a house is having a fireplace, but now I have the next best thing---video fireplace! People I've showed it to thought it was a strange idea, until they start to watch the video...it's oddly comforting and almost hypnotic.

One note: turn down the sound on your TV, or you'll think your house is burning down.

This review is from: 3 Hour Original Video Fireplace [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this for Christmas, since we were having our family over and do not have a fireplace. My family thought I was crazy, but eventually got into watching the fire. I do agree with other reviewers that the "fire" sound is a bit loud and overdone. You would definitely think the house is burning down if the volume is too high. I gave it 3 stars because it is a little pricy for something so silly.
