Thoughts on Ductless Fireplaces

[Rebecca Raskind]

I am wondering if anyone here has had experience with electric/ductless fireplaces like so

I'm currently rehabbing a home with a mid-century vibe. Unfortunately the original fireplace would not work with our floorplan and had to be demoed. We are planning to install an electric (flameless) fireplace and frame it out, then tile with Mid Century Modern style tile.

I'm curious if anyone has experience with this type of ductless fireplace. Do buyers respond to them well (thinking savvy Los Angeles buyers specifically) or would it be better to spend considerably more money for a direct vent gas fireplace (has a real flame but does not require a chimney).  

Would love to hear any thoughts or experiences!
