Are gas logs trashy?

I drove around looking for firewood on Tuesday without success. Yeah, I know, I should have gotten it earlier.
Gas logs seem like a good option at this point. Anybody else got them? I would need a plumber to reconfigure the gas line, I guess.

If you want them, why do you care what other people think?

I hate them but I can't ignore the convenience. A gas line in a wood burning fireplace is the best option and what I have now. Don't have to buy starter logs anymore.

Worrying about what others think when it doesn't directly affect them is trashy

Are trash logs gassy?

No. They are a good decision for people who have better things to do than chop, buy, stack, and retrieve firewood.
I prefer the smell of a real fire, but it's like riding a horse versus driving a car.

No, actually pretty clean….
Our old house had a wood burning fireplace, loved the smell, popping and the glow of coals, but hated cleaning it. New house has a gas fire place, flipping a switch on and off is pretty convenient.

I initially read this as “are gas dogs trashy” and came in with questions. But I follow what the thread means now.

My compromise when I move will be to retrofit the wood fireplace with gas logs and get my love for the smell of burning wood from my patio firepit.

I enjoyed our gas fireplace growing up. It heated the brick surrounding which radiated to room,

I had the options of rebuilding my fire box for about $6,000 or converting to a gas fireplace with ceramic logs for $1500, I went with the latter, so yes trashy and also poor.

I use my wood stove all winter and never let my heater kick on. I cut, split and stack all my firewood. I already have all my firewood put up to dry for next fall.
I guess if I didn't live in the sticks and couldn't easily cut my own wood, gas would be ok.

Looking for wood Jan. 22nd? Why even have a fire place? Winter in South is past 1/2 over.

Best thing ever. Ours has a blower fan to push hot air even further into the room. We can heat that entire floor with just the fireplace.

I have them and like them. They provide good heat and I can turn them on and off whenever I want.
