The majority of electric fireplaces on the market today can look very realistic in terms of both flame effects and the design of the unit.

For the most realistic experience from an electric fireplace you may have to pay a premium, but the wide range of choice available for electric fireplaces means that you’ll be able to find the perfect one for your home.

• Is built from high quality materials.
• Has a hand finished ember bed.
• Is made by a reputable brand.
• Can come with a sound system or has one integrated.
• Has additional realistic features such as smoke effects.
