Happy Valley Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 We do not need a fire in the snug for heat but swmbo wants a feature fireplace in the wall and likes those new fangled long electric fireplaces that are inset and about the same width as a 55" TV. They can give out heat but look like a real fire and the "ambience" can be changed with different colours and effects. We have seen some very nice ones but they are silly money north of £2000. There are loads on ebay from around £500 to £1000. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) How about a 55" TV + virtual fireplace screensaver / video (which can come with a soundtrack too). Even better if you can raise it up and use it as a spare TV... Edited February 1, 2022 by Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget dictated a cheap one from Home&Beyond. It was less than £300 ex VAT. You can change all the colours to suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seen one for 700 quid which looks OK but there are some nice ones around 1k-1.2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
