She took the time to show us how to properly operate and clean the fireplaces and explained the maintenance they require. She also noticed we needed a replacement part, found a vendor where we could order it online, and returned to install it as soon as it arrived. She's incredibly knowledgeable- despite our fireplaces being older, she made sure they were safe, efficient, and ready to get us through the winter season. Highly recommended!

He had me email the details of what was happening. He called in my warranty information, ordered the parts that were needed and had Randy out quickly to repair the components.

We cannot thank them enough for getting our fireplace working again!

This is the third time in 25 years of living in the Knoxville area that a vendor has cautioned that I was spending money unnecessarily. I was getting quotes to replace a fireplace since the chase itself was being replaced. Market testing and online research made it easy to identify proposals which were not feasible or as much as 50% above current market pricing. Eric and team were the only ones who asked why I wanted to replace a perfectly good existing fireplace. A little steel wool and high temperature paint is all they suggested. They also identified a potential fire risk hidden during original construction by the current chase. We received a mentoring on some low cost DIY safety modifications. More feedback in the future after the fireplace glass doors we purchased are installed. We purchased much more attractive and robust doors from Eric for pricing comparable to what others quoted as part of an unnecessary fireplace replacement. Final comment on the review below about waiting months for a replacement part; many customers are having similar experiences at car dealerships. After 37 years of dealing with supply chain issues in automotive manufacturing I can attest it may well be beyond the vendors control in today's world. Frustrating but a fact of life these days.

The two gentlemen were very personable, obviously knowledgeable of their craft, and considerate; from protecting the carpeting, to the arrangement of the gas logs for proper air flow and aesthetics.

We have a dog, and I know service men either love or hate dogs investigating them and barking, but they were so patient.

My wife and I decided to install electric fireplace inserts in our two fireplaces. After doing…read moresome online research we chose the Heat&Glo SF-INS35. After putting in my zip code the Heat&Glo website directed us to American Fireplace, Sevierville, Tn, as the closest distributor. This was about 45 minutes from my home in Knoxville. I called the number and talked to "Jerry" who informed me that "they had just had a $100 increase in price" the day before my call. After negotiating we agreed on a price of $2,850 for two inserts which would be shipped to American Fireplace. I was told that I would have to pick them up in Sevierville in two weeks. This price was "out the door" including tax and shipping. After being notified that the units were ready for pick-up I drove to Sevierville and presented my Visa card for payment. The cashier told me there would be a 3% charge for using credit which I refused to pay. She begrudgingly processed my payment and I loaded the units and left. I installed the first stove and was pleased. I had a question during the installation which was not clear in the the instructions so I returned to the internet for information. My search using the model number revealed a distributor in Cleveland, Tn offering the same unit for $325 dollars less. I called and talked to "Joe" who was very nice. He verified the price. I did not mention my previous purchase. My wife and I decided that we would purchase another unit from the Hearth and Grill Sales, Cleveland, Tn, 888.230.5398 if we could return our remaining unit to American Fireplace. After driving to Sevierville we were informed that the unit could not be returned because it was a "special order." We argued that it was not a special order and that it was a back order. We were then made to wait over an hour until "Jerry" returned to the store. We realized that our return was subject to a 20% restocking fee but we asked not to pay that amount because we bought one stove which we were keeping. After negotiating for 15 minutes we agreed on a refund of $1,300. I ended up saving $100 and Hearth & Grill shipped the new stove directly to my home. Heat&Glo makes a good unit but they should be embarrassed by their Sevierville distributor. I could have saved myself some grief if I had read reviews. It is now obvious to me that American Fireplace in Sevierville, TN is less than reputable.
