Inset vs. wall-hung

Wall-mounted and inset wall-mounted electric fireplaces are the two main styles. Inset models such as the Vision Futura 1500 and the Evonic Halo 1500 XT are installed into walls and feature a flush finish that blends seamlessly with the surrounding walls. However, inset electric fires require a pre-existing opening and can be a bit more expensive than their free-standing counterparts.

The best media wall electric fires are wall-hung, like the Hall & Elgin Pryzm Arteon 3SL. As they're not installed into the wall, they don't need an opening that already exists and are relatively cheap to set up. They are more adaptable than inset electric fires with some models offering various finishes and trims to match your style.

They can also hinder the flow of air in smaller spaces as they will likely spread heat upwards instead of across the space.

Freestanding fires such as the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are great for those who don't have a fireplace recess. They can be moved from room to room to allow for greater flexibility.
