purchased to extend the life of our prefab firebox
We purchased this fireback to help extend the life of our prefab firebox that currently has a fine crack in the back firebricks. For this utility, the back is excellent, but had we purchased it for a use as an accent above our kitchen stove (essentially a backsplash for the high heat gas cooking surface), a few minor manufacturing flaws would have made it less suitable (minor cosmetic flaws in the outside frame for the acorns and textured image). The substantial weight of the cast iron back outmatched its packaging and the highest point of the acorn cap design wore through the cardboard and the black finish was removed from that area. This was easily remedied, since we had a high temp stove paint on hand for a fireplace screen that we built, but I passed along the details of the damage to the company so that they could reinforce packaging in the future. All in all, the fireback substantially improved our fireplace for a bargain price and has gotten regular use this Winter season.

Cast iron fireback.
I really like this fireback. It was really heavy and fit my fireplace well. My living room *finally* has warmed up with my woodburning fire. I did not buy the feet to go with it but I learned quickly that I should get them. The fireback fell forward after a couple of hours blocking the flu (resulting in smoke coming into the house) and I couldn't position it correctly because of the heat. I did go ahead and order the feet but I know for sure this fireback works well.

Works great!
Very happy with this, it adds a lot of heat to our family room. Only thing I would of done differently is gotten the next size up.

Increases duration of heat from fireplace
I use this with gas logs (don't use shiny firebacks with gas) and can tell a difference. When the flames go out (thermostat controlled) heat still radiates from the fireplace. The difference is subtle, but there is a difference.

This is a wonderful addition to my fireplace!
Completely changed the warmth and coziness of my fireside evenings. Thick and sturdy. Very pleased!

This does not work with vented gas fireplace
Wanted to add some warmth from our vented gas fireplace that is pretty to look at, but does not provide heat. This fireback doesn't reflect heat like I was hoping and in fact showed no noticeable difference. Very disappointing as I read reviews. I contacted Plow and Hearth via email and was informed that it does not work with gas fireplaces. They did offer 60 days in which to return and get a refund. This fireback is quite heavy and you really need two people to place it correctly.

Going to pay for itself.
Good looking backer, a bit unwieldy for an old man to wrestle to the back of the fireplace, but that's cast iron. We're actually feeling radiant heat in the room now, not just watching smoke go up the chimney.

It looks okay, not sure if it really increases the efficiency of the fireplace much
I'm not sure if this thing makes much difference to the heat cast from the fireplace. Didn't seem to make much difference on my electric bill.
