Default Flueless gas fires fumes in room

I've just bought one of those new flueless gas fires for the lounge, that apparently does not send any unwelcome fumes in to the room.

Is this true or can a smell (even a faint one) be smelt when fired up?

Do you reckon I counld mount it in a recess, maybe 4" clearance all the way round?

All the fumes come into the room, obviously. As others have said, they
make a great source of condensation, and thus toxic mould etc.
