Review: Thrilled! - I normally never write reviews, but I felt compelled to write one for the Dimplex heater because I had many doubts and questions before ordering and did not find them answered. We live in Ireland and I ordered it 2 days ago; it arrived this morning, well packaged and completely put together (we did not even have to screw on the legs like all cheaper heaters need doing). We took it out of the box and plugged it right in - perfect. Both doors open and there is a fairly realistic flame effect on the back, with a hardly visible pattern. There is a plastic bed of "glowing coals", and 3 small bags with about 15 pieces of real coal were in the box, which can be placed on the plastic bed for a more realistic effect. All over the inside back wall, there is a mirror which displays the fiery glow when switched on. When switched off, the mirror is visible, but as it is low to the ground, you have to stoop down to see it. It is already fitted with LED lights for the fire (environmentally friendly and cheap) and I have not found a door to replace them, but I suppose LED bulbs are long lasting and probably don't have to be replaced. The button for manual on/off switching and the 2 heat buttons (one for 1kW and one for 2kW) are placed low on the left side of the unit, and there is a remote control (complete with fitted batteries, black, about 2" long and very slim) which switches the stove on and off to the last setting it was set to. In other words, if it is set to 1kW heat output and switched off, the remote switches it back on to that setting.To switch the unit on, the glowing fire comes on automatically, so it is not possible to have the heat on without the "glowing fire" look, but it is possible to have the glow on without any heat output. Soundwise it is exactly as loud as a small fan heater (and slightly louder on the 2kw setting) because this is essentially what it is. It throws out an amazing amount of heat; our living room is 6m x 7m, and it warmed up immediately. It is higher off the ground than other heaters; I kept checking the temperature on the floor underneath the stove, but it did not make the floor very hot at all and the heat is thrown out along the bottom front only. I was also worried about the on/off buttons to be hot to the touch, but they are not affected by the heat at all. It switches off automatically when it gets too hot and this is a safety feature and can't be adjusted manually; after a few minutes it has cooled down enough to be switched on again. At 16c per Irish kW hour, this is much cheaper to run than brickets or coal in a fireplace. I have one complaint (which is ridiculous I admit): The polished "Dimplex" logo is very shiny and large on the (pretend) ash drawer so that this might have to be covered somehow. A cute, stylish, effective heater and super safe - a friend of ours dropped by as we had just plugged it in and asked if we got a new "real" stove, so it looks really realistic (at first glance anyway). I would definitely recommend.
Review: What a superb little stove. - I'm so pleased with this stove heater ! It was really easy to set up - just five minutes from pulling it out of the box - and looks great. The LED real flame effect is excellent, and you can add lumps of the supplied coal to cover as much of the "glow" as you fancy. In fact, it's hard not to feel warmer with just the flame effect alone. The LED is also totally silent, whereas the heater does make a bit of a hum when it's running, but I didn't find it obtrusive; and it pumps out surprising quantities of heat, even at the 1kw setting. The remote control is very basic, and seems to do no more than switch the appliance on or off, but it's better than nothing, and to turn on the heater you need to operate the switch manually (but it can be turned off with the remote). My only gripe is the short length of the power cable (1.5m, I think); I have the stove in the fireplace, and the lead only just reaches the nearest socket.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the 10cm x 10cm x 10cm size correct?  Seems very little??? Please reply quickly as I am very interested in purchasing. Could I order on the phone?**
A: Hi, would be very small. No, without a tape measure I would say it is about 70cm high, 40cm wide and about 30cm deep.It is a fantastic fire. Mine is on at the moment, not noticable with the tv on and gives out superb heat.This fire has it all. Nice looking, safe for kids and low on electric. Hope it helps

**Q: Can anyone post a video please? I am worried if flame looks "fake". Is it "optiflame" or "optimyst" (Dimplex names). Any thoughts?**
A: It is Optiflame. The flame looks very realistic. I spent an embarrassing amount of time in B&Q with my ex, when we were shopping for a stove...I am very fussy, and wanted to make sure the flames looked as realistic as possible (without spending hundreds of pounds). The flame effect eventually stopped working, and even though I don't have much money, I ordered another Dimplex Tango as I like it so much! When I get around to writing a review, I will try and put a video on, but I doubt it will do it justice, taken with a tablet.

**Q: If the cable is not long enough to reach a socket, would it be safe to use an extension lead?**
A: Nearly burnt my house 🏠 down used with extention lead smelt like kippers cooking checked to find the plug had melted into the wall socket

**Q: Does this stove plug in with a standard 3-pin plug into a normal plug socket, or does it need to be hard-wired?**
A: Just plug in , good to go in a 13 amp socket . No need for extra wiring .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reasonably good for the price.
*by L***0 on 4 September 2025*

This is my forth purchase of this type of product and I am disappointed by the quality and functionality. The handles on the door are quite cheap looking and the doors don’t click shut as I have had in other (cheaper) models, The flame effect is good but I was surprised to find that there is no control to adjust the flame from full flame to ember effect. I thought this would be controlled by the thermostat as it is on other stove effect fires I have but it isn’t. My fault, I should have paid more attention to the description. Compared to other models I have I don’t love it but I will probably keep it as it is for a spare room. On the plus side, the product arrived on schedule and was well packaged, sturdy and easy to put together. The little bags of coal included with the project are a nice touch. Update: Just tried to look at the knobs to see if they can be replaced and the plastic door came off in my hand. Seriously,, if I had paid full price for this it would be going back. Update September 2025 For personal preference I changed the door knobs and added extra coal and wood collected on dog walks. The functionality of this fire is sound and with a few modifications looks great.
