I have looked on ebay and a couple of other places,but thought id ask on here incase any of you know somewhere you can recomend i get them from cheap

Do you have a freecycle group in your area? Maybe someone has one to get rid of and that way you get one for free.
See http://www.freecycle.org/ for more details
We have one in Norfolk and it's brilliant

Hi

Not sure of your budget but bought a lovely one from B & Q 2 weeks ago - fire surround in beech with marble back £99 and chrom pebble affect electric fire £99.00 - had it installed and up and running in under 2 hours

Fire can also be used as cold air fan in summer

hi ..that sounds like a nice one.
i love them pebble ones.How much did it all cost together then with the fire?

and could you choose what back you wanted?as id prefer white coloured marble

Hi its was £198.00 in total - nothing else to buy, the backing is just standard you cant choose but it is a very light marble colour.
