5Perfectly Meets Our Need and Works Great
By D. Bergman
We've had this heater for several months and use it every night. It's used to supplement heat in a 15'x18' bedroom and heats that space up very quickly. I think the 'flame' looks quite realistic...just understand that it's not a real flame but they did a pretty good job representing a flame. The heat is blown from the bottom of the unit out to the front. The noise level is low, but the fan does stay on throughout the night whether the heat is on or off. But, we have two other Lasko ceramic room heaters and they are definitely louder than this. The thermostat function works very well. Please note, though, that the thermostat is not set by degrees. The first time you turn on the heater, you turn up the thermostat knob to the highest mark then when the room reaches the temperature you want, you turn the knob back until the heating turns off...that becomes your room heat point for the unit. It does work fine once you set it up. The remote turns the unit on and off only - no heat adjustment, but we haven't had a need to adjust the heat once we set the thermostat and I like the on/off remote. The unit seems to be constructed well -- I've seen different brands like this made of mostly plastic but that's not the case with this one. It's pretty compact as well so it fits nicely in most spaces. I wouldn't expect it to heat a large area (I haven't tried though), but I don't think it's made for that. Overall we're very pleased with it so far and hope that it lasts a long time.1/1/2014 - 3 Year update -- I stand by my initial rating of 5 stars -- this electric fireplace / heater continues to do what is was meant to do. The only thing I've had to do is replace the light bulbs in the back of the unit that light up the 'flame'. This is a cosmetic fix -- it still heats if the light bulbs blow out but you don't see the 'flame' without them. It's a simple fix by removing a few screws on the lower back panel. This unit is used almost every night during the fall and winter, so maybe 5 months per year. But bottom line, it's still working like the day I bought it so when I need another I will definitely purchase another one of these.

5LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS STOVE!!
By Coppergirl56
I have always wanted a fireplace in my bedroom. At the back of the house, the room get's chilly at night and, also, I love the ambiance of a fireplace. My Dimplex Electric Stove arrived two weeks ago. I read the manual, plugged it in, put the battery in the remote and there it was! An instant wood-burning stove. It is so attractive and so easily moved from room to room. Honestly, the flames look real. Even when the stove is turned off, the logs are designed to have a little glow that looks like the dying embers of a fire. There is a very quiet fan underneath that blows out the heat and when I set the temperature control, it's just right to take the chill off in the bedroom. I almost didn't buy it because of some reviewers who were not happy with the thermostat. Maybe they did not read the manual. You have to turn the temperature control knob all the way to the right, until you hear a soft click. Then you turn it counterclockwise until just the right amount of heat is coming out. It will "set" that temperature and keep it there. I've had mine on for 8 hours and it still puts out the same gentle heat. The other thing I LOVE is that the manual says you can turn off the heat and still have the flames and the glowing logs without heating up your room. Awesome because on summer nights where I live, it's never cool enough to have a fire in our regular living room fireplace. If I ever want to enjoy the glow of a fire on summer nights, I will be able to click my remote control and have the beautiful glow and atmosphere without heating up the room. I checked out the Dimplex web site before I bought this and was so impressed with how they use the latest innovations to make the flames and glowing logs/embers look real. They really do. The stove itself is so cute. The door really opens. By the way, the unit itself does not get hot. So, there is no danger of burning yourself if you touch it. I am so pleased. When we have guests, I might just put it in the guest room for them to enjoy since it is so easy to move.

3The best choice in a bad line up
By ems
I'm giving this a 3-star rating ("It's OK") because although I'd argue it's one of the better stoves in this class, I think this class is lousy and lacks some basic features, I guess maybe because no one would be willing to pay $300+ for an electric faux-fireplace...I'm not really going to speak much to its heating ability because the fact is that a 1300W forced air heater is a 1300W forced air heater, regardless of the form it comes in. No space heater will give much more than 1300W because then you're into blown circuit territory.I personally have this unit setup about 2-3' from my recliner in the living room (it's in front of my fireplace), so it is basically heating the area around my feet, I think it seems to be working well, but then I don't expect it to do much more than kick the room temp up about 1-2* higher than the central heating is set for, my room is a 15x15 room with two double-sized openings to other spaces...Also, a word of warning that I heeded thanks to another reviewer: The first time this unit is turned on it STINKS. There is some sort of oil or something on the heating element. It gives of a distinct burning smell. Had I not already opened the windows in the room, and the adjacent room, I have no doubt my smoke detector may have gone off (which in my case means 5-6 units on all levels yelling "SMOKE DETECTED! EVACUATE! EVACUATE!" and can get really annoying very fast!!)Pro's:- It's got a metal top/sides. It's not overly heavy, but does feel nice and solid- The "fire" effect and glowing logs are surprisingly nice- Overall appearance is quite nice- It does make some noise (the fan) but it's not loud, and it's a deep rushing noise, so it's easy to tune outCon's:- I would have liked to see a heavier cord, 3-prong cord. With a metal body and resistive-heating elements that seems important to me- The remote will only turn the unit on/off, it will not let you change the temperature- There is no way to run the heating part w/o the fake flames (I suppose I could unscrew the light bulb...)- MOST IMPORTANT: There is no way to adjust the power consumed by the heating element (more on the below)I used a non-contact thermometer to measure a few things for anyone interested:- Output at the grill, 250-350*F (it's HOT, you should be careful of small children around this unit, and be very careful of objects anywhere near the underside)- Floor in front of the unit, 120*F (I have the stove placed on the tile floor in front of my fireplace, there is a lot of thermal mass there... I'd be seriously hesitant to place this on a medium/deep pile carpet)- Most important: The plug/cord, 85*F (this measurement was taken after the stove was continuously heating for over FOUR HOURS. This was my biggest concern because I read another review here where someone said the cord/plug got hot to the touch--my cord/plug are not getting "hot", but they are warm. I think after four hours I've reached a steady state where it won't get any hotter, so my conclusion here is that this is not a significant problem. Tho, I would add however, that the outlet I'm plugged into is a new outlet, so it is not loose like one that is 15+ years old. You might consider replacing the outlet you plug this into if you notice your plug/cord getting more than just warm--new outlet is cheap, only a buck or two, and replacement is generally easy, everyone probably knows someone who can do it)Here is my biggest grip about this stove, and this class of stoves in general:This thing draws 1360W when operating w/ the heating element on... a typical 15A circuit will trip at 1800W, so there isn't much head room here. I really would have appreciated at least a 2-level heating element setting so that I could optionally run the stove at ~700W instead. I have an oil filled electric radiator with 3-element settings, it only cost $40 and has an LCD display and electronic controls... not sure why this stove at 4X the price cannot have the same.
