If you’ve read our Fireplace Insert Buying Guide, you know that we generally recommend buying from a seller that has great customer service and a good reputation. While Amazon’s sellers don’t always have the best customer service, the ratings are generally accurate. These ratings don’t always exist on other sites, making Amazon a great place to see what other customers like you are thinking.
Electric fireplace inserts require little to no maintenance. They are ventless so installation is very simple. Because of these things, buying from a seller on Amazon is a great option. You don’t need a manufacturer who will hold your hand every step of the way. When buying electric fireplaces, reviews are the most important consideration since a photograph doesn’t always capture the reality of what the electric flames will look like.
These are some of our favorite electric fireplaces sold on Amazon:
This fireplace by Homedex is made specifically to go into a wall and includes instructions on how to do that yourself. It “burns” in multiple colors and you can switch between logs and glass in the ember bed. Switching between colors only requires pressing a button, but you have to remove the front of the fireplace to switch between logs and glass. While this could be frustrating, the fact that it opens also means you’ll be able to clean and dust it, which isn’t an option for all electric fireplaces. Additionally, over 20 reviewers say that its easy to install!
