Duraflame Electric Infrared Quartz Fireplace Stove with 3D Flame Effect, Black

I bought this product in November of 2019.(Note: It is now February 2026 and I still stand by my review)I have enjoyed this product so much. It heats nicely, however, I didn't really buy it for heat, but have used it to supplement on some really cold days over the years. I would not recommend this product as a MAIN heat source as this or any other stove of this class, in my opinion, is not built in such a way to be anything other than a decorative and an occasional, supplemental, and attended heat source. I have had a real cast iron stove (vermont castings with the fire glass window) a wee bit bigger than this, and I missed just seeing the flame after I moved. The flame is nicely realistic. This runs LEDs for realistic flames display. I put it away in the summer in a closet and cover it to keep the dust off and remove the battery from the remote and place the remote inside on the logs when stored. I pull it out in October, put a battery into the remote and turn it on ( the LED fire lights) and it still is like new. I run lights mostly all fall and winter, until spring warmth during the waking hours. My dog actually likes to lay in front of it. All that is to say, I have never regretted this purchase. It warms the “feel and look” of any room it is placed in. It has been a great product these five years. I am of the opinion you get what you pay for with these stoves. (Also, an important feature I wanted was the vent to be on the TOP not the bottom, which five years ago when I bought my stove this was only one of maybe 2 or 3 models that offered the top vent in any brand). This product has the top vent, and it is vented on the ends as well. When the heat runs, the stove body does not get hot, but the air blowing from the vent is , so if you have toddlers, you would want to ensure the front vent heat blowing out doesn't blow into their eyes….I have used a screen when necessary with visitors with small children. Be sure to plug into the wall socket direct, not through a power/surge protector strip. The stove I have does not have a grounded plug so I do occasionally touch the cord at the back to check the cord heat if I run the heater portion for a while, which could be a little and barely warm, but not hot.BEFORE I bought this Duraflame stove product, I had purchased a much cheaper one.The vent was on the bottom of this cheaper stove, and when I did run the heat, which was not often, it delaminated a soft-lay laminate floor in front of the vent which was on the bottom front. When I noticed it, I didn't have my remote handy and just unplugged it, the cord and plug was very hot, so I cut the cord off even at the back of the stove and disposed of the unit. No more cheap stoves for me as this was an alarming experience, as well as a developing hazard and no matter the brand, I will always monitor the cord and the product for safety due to my own personal experience.All in all, This Duraflame stove, again has been a very, very nice product, and I have not had any problems with my unit and I am happy to give it a great review.Edit 2026:I came back to say 7 years and still going, and Im starting a new season. I run my lights most days all winter and after 7 years, my stove and its lights still run and looks great!

Silenciosa, elegante, funcional y mantiene buena temperatura en areas amplias.

Realistic flame, even my dogs watch it. The stove is very sturdy, and has glass sides that are really a great viewing feature. The infrared heat warms the room up very nicely, so the room stays warm longer, once the heating is turned off, and you just want flame for viewing. I find this type of heat is better than the regular electric I use to own. Beautiful beveled glass front door. Remote control is handy and temp setting is on the stove, but all can be turned on and off with remote. The flame has several settings for amount of flame you want to view. Great reviews on this stove, excellent delivery. Was worth the money to get through the long winter darkness!!

It's perfect. Nice heat and very attractive.

El mueble es bonito y la luz de la "fogata" se vé muy natural y bonita. El calor que emite es agradable pero no demasiado cálido, por lo que no creo que funcione en lugares extremadamente fríos. El calor se emite por un ventilador en la parte frontal superior del calentador. Pero no se calienta mucho la parte superior al tacto.Los botones de encendido, temperatura y tipo de flama están detrás de la puerta y no están iluminados, por lo que se necesita luz ambiental o de una lámpara para poder verlos. El control remoto solo enciende y apaga o cambia la flama, pero no se puede ver a qué se está cambiando porque los signos están detrás de la puerta.No hace mucho ruido, únicamente el sonido del ventilador.Para un lugar cerrado de tamaño pequeño (unos 40-50 mts 2) funciona muy bien. Lo considero un producto excelente, mucho mejor que otros similares que he tenido.Edición en 2018: Un año después sigue funcionando muy bien.Lo que no puedo creer, ¡es el precio actual! ¿Cómo pudo haber aumentado 4 veces en un año?
