What Kind of Built-In Electric Fireplace Should You Buy?
Built-in electric fireplaces can add warmth and a stunning aesthetic piece to your home, but there are so many styles and sizes that finding the perfect one can be difficult. BBQGuys® understands that as well as anyone — we’ve been testing and selling hearth appliances for more than 20 years, after all — which is why we’ve compiled a list of the top built-in electric fireplaces so you can find the model that matches your needs, style, and budget. Our experts created this list based on the following three factors:
Quality - When it comes to quality, our experts chose electric fireplace models with the best warranties, materials, construction, and longevity. Many of the electric fireplaces on this list will go on operating perfectly for a decade or more, so you should be confident you've made an investment that will provide warmth and beauty for years to come.
Features - Simply put, features mean convenience and customization. Most built-in electric fireplaces give you the ability to remotely set timers, adjust the temperature, change the flame color or style, and personalize ember bed colors. Some of the brands on this list even provide additional media so you can change the look and feel of your electric fireplace.
Performance - We measure the performance of an electric fireplace by the heat it produces as well as the beauty and ambiance of the flame display. In addition to looking for the most lifelike flame and smoke technologies, our experts valued built-in electric fireplaces with the most powerful heaters to keep your indoor spaces toasty and inviting.
