How to Choose the Right Electric Fireplace

Wall-mount, plasma-style electric fireplaces have the advantage of taking up no floor space, making them ideal for small living spaces such as condos and townhomes. These fireplaces can easily be installed on any wall using a bracket or drywall studs, and offer a contemporary look and feel to any room. They're also perfect for adding a romantic touch to bedrooms, and their sleek design and shimmering crystal ember beds provide a unique focal point for any living space.

An electric insert provides an array of design possibilities by giving you the freedom to match your fireplace surround or mantel to your existing home furnishings. You can get the look you want by surrounding your insert with natural stone, glass tiles, or a traditional wooden mantel, or by installing your fireplace insert directly into your existing fireplace opening, creating the perfect substitute to an ashy, messy, wood-burning fireplace.

For a more traditional look, nothing compares to the old-world charm of a cast iron and steel electric stove. Electric stove fireplaces provide many of the same features of wood-finish electric fireplaces, but tend to be more compact and portable.
