Fire choices for Lounge

We are wavering between gas and solid fuel fire choice for the lounge. Initial choice was gas, and we had a new gas pipe installed in situ for a gas fire, then we changed our minds to solid fuel, and recently visited a couple of local fireplace showrooms...now we are confused and thinking maybe gas maybe the better choice for practicalities etc....

These are two of the fire surrounds that we have short listed...both can be used with either gas fire or solid fuel..and both will need a new flue liner installing so a similar cost for purchase and installation...
