Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brian Sutch We purchased this particular unit for our new home in Vernon as we had installed one in our house a couple of years ago in Penticton. It saves on heating the whole home when using mainly the living room in the evening and is so realistic several people commented after being in the house for a while that they had just realised it was not a real open fire. We have also inserted another Dimplex insert (different model) in our downstairs den and are equally pleased with that also. Both are controlled with remotes which allows one to adjust flames effect and heat level.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Electric Fireplace insert Looks good but dosen't give out any heat. Nice to cover up an old woodburning fireplace.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Dimplex Electric Insert A really nice and economical solution to the "hole" in our masonary fireplace. Fit perfectly into a 24" opening that was a coal burning appliance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Search! Our existing electric fireplace had "packed it in", so the search was on for a new one that would fit the space of our existing surround. The Dimplex 23 inch is just perfect. It has the look of the "real thing" and gives enough heat so that we can use the furnace less. Love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love my Dimplex My husband and I were looking for a entertainment unit to hide the tv and a fireplace for the main floor and we walked into Home Depot one day and they had a unit sitting there that was a beautiful piece of furniture that was a entertainment unit and had a Dimplex electric fireplace in the bottom portion. WE bought it on site and it adds such class to the living room. Highly recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fireplace insert I had been looking for a fireplace insert for a couple of years now and have researched for a nice and affordable one also . This was perfect and also with a remote control .. I am so happy with it and it looks great ! It is nice to have it where you can have the heat on or off and with the same effect .....I Love it ! It came right out of the box in one piece and just plugged it in and turned it on ... LOL My husband kept asking me if he could help me and I said no I got this ... It was that easy ..... You won't be disappointed with this purchase ..

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So cozy and real looking We're just thrilled with our purchase of the Dimplex electrict fireplace insert. We recently renovated our basement and for the first time had a way to use the old fireplace. It looks very realistic with the mirror in the back reflecting the "flames" and it is a heater too. I would definitely recommend this as it surpassed my expectations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great buy We've had Dimplex fireplaces before and enjoy their products. This insert is nice looking, has a realistic flame and heats our 10 x 20 living room just nicely. Good buy.

Can this be installed BEHIND a regular glass fireplace screen?

Yes but you will lose the benefit of the heater. OK if you don't use the heater but there may be better choices.
