Consider this my annual reminder to you chimney-loving mags that this device is smart, cheap and saves you money and smell. That is all.

OK, why not just close the damper?

So it's like a chimney butt plug.

I have them. Tough to use in a fireplace that sees use but for ones that sit idle for days or weeks they're awesome and especially in draftier houses. They keep a ton of heat in for short money, definitely made a noticeable difference.

If by tough you mean 30 seconds to take out and 2 minutes to put in, then yes. It's a pain in the ass.
... if you've got a outside vent in your kitchen (over the stove or next to the burners), those things will pull air in through the damper and make the house stinky. The Chimney Butt Plug® stops all that.

Huh, I need one of these chimney pillows. Butt plug jokes aside, I lose a lot of heat up my chimney. Thanks OP for posting this.
