HY-C FB1515 Fireback, Stainless Steel Painted Black, Adjustable Installation, Protects Firebox, 15" x 15"

Bought this for my first fireplace in my condo. I had never heard of a fireback, as i had never had a fireplace. But since reading how to get more heat from your fireplace, was to use a fireback. This one is very inexpensive and works really well. It feels like it has doubled the heat output of my fireplace. I have ad to adjust it to fit my smaller fireplace, but now it works very well.I will say that the black paint has come off due to the high heat from the duralogs that i use. But the soot from the logs is enough to make a matte black coating on the fireback which is nice to look at instead of the bare metal. I also like the metal legs which allows the fireback's angle to be adjusted.

The product did increase the heat output. I would recommend to definitely take into consideration your grate height you’re using and the dimensions of your fireplace. Getting the desired angle in the holder takes up some space from the back that I didn’t originally think of. Also it is smaller than I was thinking, especially with the added height of the wood when in the grates. They do list the dimensions but just take these extra factors into consideration. Overall heat output I did notice a few degrees as well as an added distance where you can feel it, but it’s not an overpowering difference. I’d still recommend it based on those factors.

Works well to throw a little additional heat into the room.

Poor quality here, just after one fire there's no black paint on this shield and does not reflect any more heat than without it. Don't waste your money.

I was skeptical but this thing really does what they claimed it would. I’m more than satisfied with it

Super lightweight and easy to set up. And it increased the warmth from the fireplace by over 5°. Delivery was much faster then was said too.

Works great to protect our back wall of fire place. So much less expensive than many other fire backs.

We bought it to radiate heat from living room to rest of house and it works wonderfully
