Dimplex Kansas Optiflame Electric Inset Fire, Brass, 46.3cm W

Despite speaking directly to a Wayfair agent, while measuring the actual fireplace opening to check fit, it did not fit when it arrived! The was a splash of black paint on the front that had been left to harden. Also WARNING! If you buy this item be careful when you are fitting it as the edges of the brass part are like RAZOR BLADES! I have a very bad cut from trying to repackage it for return. Very unhappy customer!!!

The actual fire is wonderful with very realistic flames. However although we measured the fireplace inset hole many times, when the fir arrived it would not fit in the inset. The measurements given for the back of the fire (the part to set into the surround) did not take account for the extra centimetre or so from bottom of inset to base of fire. We had to employ a stonemason to cut our inset hole deeper.

Looks beautiful in my fireplace. I can’t vouch for it as a heater as I have only used the flame effect option to date which is very peaceful and cosy looking.

Lovely fire ... good value for money does the job perfectly

did not fit straight away as bigger at the back than the fire that was there hd to cut away some bricks so was a bit messy but apart from that it os good
