The Mendota ML72 Linear Gas Fireplace is Mendota's largest gas fireplace, built for homeowners who want a dramatic, panoramic statement fire in even the grandest rooms. Available in two distinct styles — the Timberline (realistic log sets for a traditional wood-fire look) and the Décor (modern media and contemporary aesthetic) — the ML72's colossal width commands attention and transforms any living space into a showpiece.
The ML72 isn't just a fireplace — it's architecture. Its panoramic viewing area stretches wider than virtually any other residential gas fireplace, making the flames the focal point of the entire room. The Timberline model pairs that scale with Mendota's ultra-realistic log sets for a traditional hearth feel, while the Décor model leans into clean lines and modern media for a contemporary design statement. Either way, you choose the front, the liner, and the surround — making every ML72 uniquely yours.
The Timberline features realistic log sets designed to mimic a traditional wood fire, while the Décor model uses modern decorative media (such as glass or stone) for a sleek, contemporary look. Both share the same large firebox and customization options.
