VonHaus Panoramic Stove Heater with Log Storage – 3-Sided Electric Fireplace with LED Flame Effect – 2000W – Freestanding and Portable w/Overheat Protection – 2 Heat Settings

I’m delighted I chose this one. A little bit more expensive than I had budgeted for but it looks amazing. The flame effect is the best I’ve seen, the functionality is great, the heat output is exactly right for a room of 20m2, the noise level is not an issue buts it’s not silent. The lighting is ambient and the best feature to this truly beautiful fire. I looked at dozens of fires alongside this one. I made the right decision. It’s not just a fire; it’s a focal point too.

Great value for money , looks modern, works well, heats the room , a handy remote to use. Good size and led flames, noise of fan is not too loud.

This fire arrived yesterday. It was out of the box and set up in minutes, so that's good. The one shock for me is that the glass part, where it looks like a door, does NOT open. I assumed the controls would be in there. They're not. They're at the top of the back of the heater. It's actually quite a handy location as no need to bend down to switch on, the light or one or two of the heat settings. But what if the inside of the glass needs cleaning? What if the bulb needs changing? 🤷‍♀️ One other review mentioned a remote control. There is NOT remote control. I searched my box and the text of the listing when I saw someone mention this. No remote control. But that's OK, I didn't think there was when I bought it. I like the design. I want it to sit in front of a real fire when I'm not using the fire. Other similar fires have the fan heater part right at the bottom, i.e exactly where the raised hearth around the fire is (which would therefore block the heat output). With this fire, the fan heater is raised slightly. So it's great for my purpose. The body is not a solid as I thought (comparing to a 40 year old Burley that is still going lol) but it looks fabulous. Noise level is fine. It's a fan heater so it sounds like a fan heater. It's virtually silent if you just use the lights and/ or if the thermostat clicks off when the room is at temperature. The dial for the thermostat is also at the top of the back of the heater. But it's easy to turn it and work out whether you're turning it up or down without actually seeing the dial. The heater is also quite light (for such a thing) for moving it around (or in and out of the fireplace for me, when I do actually light the real fire). Overall, in happy but dropped a star as the door doesn't open which makes me worry about cleaning the inside glass in the future and changing the bulb, should it ever be necessary (modern bulbs seem to last a long time so hopefully I'll never need to find out). I like the look of the fake flues in some of the reviews. I found some on amazon so may get one. Heated wise, yes, it's a fan heater. Flame effect is lovely. On the whole, nice looking, very easy to operate.

I love the new addition to my sitting room the glow makes such a comfy feel. The room is rather large but it takes no time at all to heat the space it’s quiet and extremely functional!

So far, really pleased with this item. Solid build quality and looks very good. Door doesn't open which confused me at first, but controls are.at the back so.makes.sense. Only tried it on lowest heat setting bit very warm. Recommend to.others

We love it and it looks great in our room. Bought some logs to pop in the gap

Avoid!! We purchased one of these before Christmas and it was ‘delivered to a neighbour’ followed by a name of a neighbour we don’t have. Amazon kindly refunded and we re-bought another fire. This arrived after Christmas and the flame effect didn’t work at all. 5 shops later we finally found someone who would accept the return and had to spend £19 for the pleasure. Again Amazon refunded the cost and the fire. Third time lucky we purchased ANOTHER fire and this time it is faulty AGAIN! The flames work but there is a clunking sound when it’s on. So now I have to decide whether to spend another £20 and return this for a FOURTH attempt or just keep it and get on with the clunking sound. This is shocking quality, shocking service from the third party sellers and quite frankly I would never ever buy from them again! Also it definitely doesn’t come with a remote. Honestly I would avoid this at all costs and find something else on the market for similar price!

This is a fantastic fire. The ambience it provides is superb. The heat is excellent too. My central heating recently broke down, we were kept warm thanks to excellent fire. Can highly recommend. Great value, great great product.
