Default Gel fires

Or rather gel fireplaces. Anyone any experience of these?

Saw one on property ladder this week. Looked a suitable solution for
those without gas and flue. Also looked realistic. Any comments?

You know those gel cadles you get? Think that scaled up to room size.

They're fine, but they still chuck out a fair bit of moisture into the air.

Really - how bizarre!? I must say I had never heard of them either until
that programme.

I've only ever seen them in showrooms and on TV. Seem like a very silly
idea to me.

Basically what you had was 3 big gel candles underneath fake coals/logs
etc. in a fireplace. light the candles and flames flicker up through he
coals. No need for a flue of course
