A slim freestanding electric fireplace with a mantel for small rooms. Wall mounting hardware is required, and the mantel warranty is short.

Overview

A small bedroom or living room wall gets a slim mantel fireplace with fluted columns and classic trim. The electric firebox plugs into any standard outlet and carries LED flames with five brightness settings.

The slim depth suits small rooms, and the quartz heater adds real warmth with a remote, thermostat and timer. Setup means anchoring it to the wall with the included hardware. The warranty on the mantel is brief.

Who it's for

Bedrooms, living rooms and home offices with limited depth will use the slim profile and the remote. Renters who cannot drill into a wall, or buyers who want a long mantel warranty, should look at other fireplaces.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Slim depth suits small rooms
  • Remote, thermostat and timer
  • Anti-topple safety device included
  • Real quartz heat
Cons
  • Must be anchored to the wall
  • Short warranty on the mantel
  • Power source listed as unspecified

Performance notes

A quartz element supplies the heat and a thermostat cycles it to hold the set temperature. The LED flame effect runs separately, so it can be enjoyed with the heater off. The anchor and anti-topple device matter because the unit is freestanding and tall.
