Our Touchstone Side 45 has been in place for a few months and it has exceeded our expectations. It looks great and really enhances the atmosphere of our family room. We purchased the accessory that creates the crackling noise, but it is too loud and there doesn't appear to be a way to turn down the volume; therefore, that extra purchase would not be recommended.
I purchased this unit about a month ago to add some coziness to my home. I built the surround and mantel for it myself and have to say I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out. The flames look quite a lot more realistic than many of the cheaper fireplaces I considered, though I will say, the heater fan is sort of noisy. Not terrible, but definitely audible even with the TV on and sitting 20 feet away, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars (would have done 4.5/5 if it let me). I have the log set in place rather than the crystals just because I prefer the more traditional look, but both seem to be aesthetically nice.
Shipping was fast and easy. The unit looks nice and the flame doesn't look fake, I don't know if anyone would honestly mistake it for a real fire but it definitely doesn't look fake and weird. Only knock would be that I wish the trim glass covered a bit more on the top and bottom, it's not bad but definitely make sure that you get your measurements right.
