It seems ironic to me ...
that an "electric fireplace" should bill itself as being made by the Amish, but judging by the number of these that go through UPS every day, they certainly seem to be selling well. I haven't got that many in my assignment, but the two next to me, that load deliveries for Scappoose and Saint Helens ( outlying towns beyond the fringes of Portland itself ), have been getting around 5-15 of them per day for about the last six months.
Maybe it's just that I grew up in a house that had a real fireplace, but I just don't get the appeal of an electric one. If you're not going to have the faint smell of wood smoke, and the entertainment value of putting in wood and stirring it with the poker, I'd just as soon have a plain old electric heater that doesn't take up usable space. But obviously that's just me.
