Old world coal basket
This cold basket is well made and puts out a lot of heat. the off/on dial is in a difficult place to reach and you cannot turn it off without using an oven mitt because the plate in front of the switch gets so hot. This didn't keep me from purchasing a second basket for another fireplace though. It's quite lovely when burning.
