The product, in the report: Duraflame Infrared Quartz Electric Fireplace Stove Heater. The heater is metal grey colored.
Bought Duraflame Infrared Quartz Electric Fireplace Stove Heater, took it out of the box and plugged it in the use. It automatically caught fire in the bottom heater area. I turned it off quickly and the flame went out - leaving the room smoke filled.
