Chinook RV

Does anyone have one in their Chinook? The furnace in our 2001 Chinook Concourse works great and we also have a small heater that also works great when plugged in but we miss having the ambiance of a fireplace. Our thoughts are that there are two options:
1. A Fireplace DVD for our 12V TV. This would look nice and have a fireplace crackling but no heat option.
2. A mini fireplace with heater option but would only work when plugged in.
Experiences, recommendations and photos would be appreciated.
Thanks, Fred and Julie

Not trying to be a "Debbie Downer" on this...but I never understood the fake fireplace thing in an RV. Even the large versions in the high-end Class A behemoths look out of place (IMO). How about the ambience of a "real fire" outside in the fire pit next to your rig?
What's next...waterfalls and koi ponds in the wet bath?

Here are some cool options:

I like the idea of a mini fireplace, but there's so little room. My sister uses the DVD since they are not tv watchers, and it gives some semblance of the real thing, and very comforting.
It almost seems like heat coming from it too, but I know its a psychological illusion.
BTW, I do have a mini waterfall for the water trickle sound that is calming at night. It's very small, @7ci, sits on the kitchen counter and plugs into 110V.
No fish yet but that's a good idea! I've seen fake ones that swim around a small bowl I think by magnets lol.

We just use the fireplace DVD.

Thanks, Clay, for the link to carolwrightgifts.com

I just love having it on my bedroom dresser for now.
Can't wait to move it out to my Chinook once it warms up here in Central Oregon.
It's plastic & takes 3 AA batteries.

I’m looking for an electric fireplace/heater too. The furnaces in these things puts way too much moisture into the coach and waking up to condensation on the inside walls and windows sucks. We’ve always used small electric space heaters and more than once have had to get up in the middle of the night to turn it down to low heat-low fan to keep from sweating. I’m looking for one that’s upright that will stand between the cab seats facing the back door. It’ll be easy to just crack open the cab windows so the heater will be drawing-in fresh air from outside and leave the bathroom ventilator slightly open to exhaust the ‘old’ air. Please share any interesting ones that you run across.
