Fire Sense Fox Hill Electric Fireplace Stove

This is one of 3 artificial fireplaces in our home...I prefer the look of them rather than a space heater...We have a large 105 year old home and the extra heat sources are needed in some rooms...This is my favorite looking one...I like the fire, but think the logs are a bit bright. You can change the bulbs and I may try a lower watt bulb when I am in the mood to change it. I read a review about it being metal...only a tin type back cover...but it is plenty sturdy. I really like the size. It is a bit bigger that some others of this style...There is no remote, but it's not a big deal to me. I like that you can have the fire on without the heat on. I also like the heat itself...low is nice for a bedroom. I eventually turn it off before going to sleep. I only gave it a 4 star review because sometimes it sounds like a cricket...with a bit of a low sounding chirping and it stops if I tap underneath where the heater box is. (maybe a squeaky fan) And also because the logs were to bright in my opinion...Overall I really like it. I looked at a lot of them before deciding and the price and style were right for me. Also came in 24 hrs for an extra $3.00 yes Three dollars...that was really nice, since I was hoping to have it before Christmas. I ordered it the morning of the 20th and it arrived the afternoon of the 21st.

This stove looks great and puts out enough heat in our great room that I eventually have to turn it to low.(about an hour or so) We have a high ceiling and a loft upstairs so there is a lot of area to heat. We have radiant heat flooring and it sucks the life out of our wallet using the propane every winter!! Thought we would take a chance on this stove after a lot of investigation of all types, sizes, prices and brands. My husband was very skeptical, but now he is happy that I am a very good shopper.Some reviews complained that it was made out of plastic. Well yes, it is made out of a heavy duty type plastic which enables you to move the stove around if you need to. If it was made out of metal it would be to heavy to move. The stove weighs about 60 lbs. as it is. I put furniture pads on the feet so if I need to move it I can just push it on the hardwood floors to another location. The flame is realistic to the point that I want to go and throw another log on the fire!!Order the stove, enjoy the stove.

Arrived with a cracked frame. One of the reviews I read before purchasing stated that it is metal. The only metal I could find are the hinges. The entire body is plastic.It makes a pleasant "fire". We put it in our bedroom and it keeps us mildly warm, we were hoping for more heat. It is OK, just not a +5.The manufacturer refunded $20 for the cracked frame.

Loved the item but you may want to order from someone else. The packaging was lousy and my item was cracked in several places. The item itself was wonderful.

Very convincing “cast iron “ appearance, even up close. Adds nice warmth to a room. Realistic glowing embers. Has an on light down below, which we covered with electricians tape. Bigger and much more convincing than others I’ve seen. We put a copper kettle on ours for added realism.

I have had this electric fireplace for appox. 3 months now. It is perfect for that little extra heat needed. I have it in my living room near where I usually sit and I am toasty warm. My furnace does not come on as often, even in our -20 below zero weather here in northern Wisconsin, I was never chilled. I have not had to bring out my electric blanket for extra warmth this winter. Great product. It is not metal but it is sturdy enough. The heat comes out from the bottom which will get your toes warm standing in front of it. My Grandson loves sitting in front of it in the mornings when he wakes up. I hope it lasts a few winters, I love it!!

I love this fireplace. I did a lot of shopping around to get the best price. (hint hint) I am very happy that the construction is metal, not plastic. It isn't thick metal but at least it's not plastic! The only assembly required is screwing on the legs (which ARE made of thick plastic but it is not obvious.) It's probably better for the floor that the legs are plastic so there is no rust or dents. The flame, logs, embers, and log holder all look surprisingly realistic. I was skeptical before I got it. There are 2 heat settings. It gives off a lot of heat. I have a big, drafty bedroom and it heats that place right up, even on Low!!! You do not have to wait for it to heat up. Instant heat. Very quiet, too. You can have the flame on with the doors open or closed, the heat on or off. The "fire" is behind a crystal-clear glass panel. The heat comes from the bottom of the unit. In my experience no part of the fireplace gets hot except the very bottom where the heat comes from. I am not worried about my kids or pets getting burned. My cat sleeps on top of it. It plugs into a regular outlet. No special cord, no 220 line, no professional installation. Just plug it in wherever you want it. Sweet.

Great little stove. Gives off plenty of heat and is very good looking. I went to a gas stove from here or I would still have it ;-)
