R.W.FLAME 42IN Recessed and Wall Mounted, The Thinnest Fireplace, Low Noise, Fit for 2 x 6 and 2 x 4 Stud, Remote Control with Timer, Touch Screen, Adjustable Flame Color and Speed

Love this fireplace! Love the color settings and remote control. It doesn’t warm up my open concept space completely but it does keep a good portion of the space comfortable, and with the ceiling fan on it helps circulate the warm air. My husband was able to mount with ease.

I bought this based on reviews and I am pleased with my purchase. We had cabinetry and a few shelves built around our tv and wanted to add an electric fireplace more for ambiance. My builder said it was easy to install. It looks great and seems of good quality. It does put out heat, however doesn’t get very hot, which I preferred due to safety concerns. I would recommend,

Did a good amount of research finding one I liked and ended up here with this one. When we opened it I was inlove it looks good! It was a good price for how big and nice it looked. I had my boss help build the frame for it and It took us a bit to do but it got done. The different colors to choose from and the lighting of it is immaculate. When heater is on its not too noisy. The quality is pretty good and I am glad I went with this purchase!

The media could not be loaded. In February of 2023 I began framing and finishing out a large room over my garage which we had planned for when we had built our home. My wife found this electric fireplace on Amazon and we ordered it. It is the perfect addition to the space providing cozy aesthetics and actual warmth. While the room we installed it in is larger square footage wise than this electric heater is rated for it still provides noticeable heat and warmth to our room. The heater offers 2 settings you might consider a low and high setting although it isn’t labeled this way. The blower doesn’t blow heat at you in the room. Rather the heat escapes the fireplace noticeably about 2-3 feet away from its front or similar to what you might expect from any heater without a noisy blower as heat rises. Considering this fireplace heater is electric you’re not going to feel extreme heat from it like a traditional fireplace. It does however create a nice hot warmth you can definitely feel and may want to stand in front of when near it. Overall, I am very pleased with its heat output. While the room does have central air/heat this electric fireplace is a very nice supplemental heat source adding noticeable heat and therefore warmth to the room. I do find myself turning off this heater as it will bring the room temperature up noticeably warmer than my central heat’s thermostat setting.A little about the room and the functionality of the electric fireplace to help understand my use and why I recommend this electric fireplace heater. The room we purchased this electric fireplace for is above an unheated garage space but was a well planned insulated space. Therefore this electric heater is not my primary heat source but is a supplement heat source. As a supplemental heat source it performs much better than any expectation I had for it. The heater function makes very little noise when set to either setting and is silent when the heat function is set to off but the flame aesthetics are being used. You must use the flame aesthetic feature, which essentially is an “ON” setting to be able to use the heat function of this electric fireplace. As mentioned the unit even with the heat setting on it’s highest setting is very quiet in operation and you can easily hear a TV when listening at lower volume levels over the very quiet fan of the heat function. I have had no concerns of safe operation as this electric fireplace heater is securely mounted with screws and does not omit unsafe heat levels to the surrounding space where it is mounted. It can be mounted inset and therefore the front glass panel will be flush to any wall where there is a space void of wall studs behind the area or if you plan or modify the space to accept this style electric fireplace heater. You simply need a 120v wall plug near the unit for safe operation. For this heater I did run a separate electric circuit specifically for this wall plugin as to not overload the room’s circuit as this room is used as primary a media room with AV equipment. Space heaters do typically use most of the amperage rating for a circuit which likely includes multiple wall outlets in most houses so keep this in mind for safe operation and to keep from tripping circuit breakers or replacing fuses due to overloading a circuit. As a result of planning for safe operation I have had no concerns or issues with this electric fireplace heater.Aesthetically, this unit offers many options. All settings and options can be controlled from either the unit itself or the remote control. The remote’s range made be the most limiting factor. You need to be within 10’ or so for it to work well. That said, you can control the heat settings, change both the bed and flame bed colors as well as adjust the flame’s speed. Other features available are a dimmer for the brightness and an auto timer shutoff. While there are many color options for each none other than a couple really strike my fancy. I almost always leave my flame bed an almost natural gas blue and the flame a near realistic fiery orange. The speed of the flames also can be changed by several settings from a near slow motion flame, to a slow flame and so on to a more realistic fiery flame appearance. I prefer a more realistic look in appearance and speed on this unit which is not a bad look for a cozy appearance overall.I believe this electric wall fireplace is reasonably realistic however this is not accurately captured in my photo or video. It is a much better experience when seen in person and when set to an appropriate flame bed and a flame setting appearance. It is a nice addition to our space and its intended functionality of heat works well for us. When we purchased ours in February of 23’ at sale price $100 less than the list price it was still more expensive than today’s current pricing. If you are considering this electric fireplace and don’t have the advantage of comparing electric fireplaces in person; I believe this electric fireplace offers a good value for the money. I don’t feel it’s the best option for a primary heat source and perhaps not if the need for supplemental heat is an extreme necessity. However, if a combination of leisure and coziness is desired this electric fireplace is a good combination of appearance, functionality and price.

We bought this to install on the back side on our kitchen island in our condo. Original plan was to recess it, but we would have had to re-route some plumbing and electrical. Opted instead to surface mount it.I used screw in anchors in the drywall and the install went smoothly and looks good. I used part of the box to make a guide and taped it to the wall with plumbers tape. Used a laser level to ensure it was straight and drilled small pilot holes.All told it took 35 minutes. The unit sticks out about 4” but really is unobtrusive. I may build a frame around it later to finish it off further, but it looks quite good.Does not put out as much heat as I expected but it is good enough and adds a nice ambience to the room.

The media could not be loaded. This is the second fireplace insert that I have purchased. I installed the first one into a fireplace opening that was a non-functioning fireplace (condemned by professionals), and it fit into the opening perfectly along with the framework that was already installed. I installed this one into my current home that has a fireplace, but needed a little more alteration in order to make it "fit" properly. I purchased the 36" wide which fit exactly perfectly horizontally. I needed to build a simple frame to fill in the top and bottom as well as make a brace for the back where I could screw in the insert so it would hold securely.The insert works just as expected, and I love all of its features. It allows for different colors of flames as well as rock colors and it even has a variable heater that puts out just the right amount of heat as needed on my Texas winter evenings.The installation can either be hung on a wall, or built into the wall or fireplace (as I did), but either way, the instructions are easy to follow and not all that difficult for a person with some simple carpentry skills.I highly recommend this product as it is easy to install, has many different features, and is a beautiful alternative to a dusty, smoky, dangerous wood burning fireplace in your home. By the way, I would not have purchased a second one of these if the first one did not impress me so much. I am 100% PLEASED with this product, and I believe you will be also. Enjoy!
