Very pleased with this electric fire. It looks lovely and cosy in my fireplace. The heater makes very little noise and it’s great to have a remote. I would recommend this electric heater

Lovely stove fire, just the right size for my fireplace having removed a log burner, flame effect gives a lovely warm cosy feel to the room without the hassle of a real fire. Only down side is the power cable as would have liked it a little longer as I had to have a new socket fitted, however length does seem to be standard on all these types of fires. Recommended.

Delighted with this electric stove, Simple to use and adds cosiness to my snug. Decided to buy after reading great reviews and I am so pleased with it. Looks very good on my cast iron existing fireplace hearth and love the remote control which turns on and off flame or if heating already set -heat as well. The flame effect is very pleasing and the stove is sturdy plus can be moved easily to another room. I like the fact there is a thermostatic control on the stove . This lovely stove is perfect .
