United Kingdom (Glen Dimplex)

Dimplex

A flame that costs 7 watts, sold directly by Amazon on every confirmed market

Dimplex appears in one family here: electric fireplaces.

What we found writing the review

An insert, not a stove. The XHD26 is built for a surround, media wall cut-out or chimney breast — no freestanding option — the narrowest, most flush-fitting cabinet of the fireplaces we compared.

7 W for the flame alone. Dimplex’s Optiflame LED effect runs independently of the 1400 W heater, the lowest heater output in this family, with no stated room-coverage figure attached to it.

Sold directly by Amazon, on every market where we found an active offer — a real signal of stock reliability, distinct from the third-party-only listings on some rivals in this family.

    Dimplex XHD26

    1400 W · Optiflame LED · built-in insert, 7 W flame-only

    A built-in insert — not freestanding — designed to fit into a custom surround, media wall cut-out, or existing chimney breast. Dimplex's Optiflame LED technology drives the flame effect, with an optional 1400 W heater that switches on separately; the flame alone draws just 7 W, letting it run continuously without the heater.

    Best for: A media-wall or chimney-breast renovation where a flush, brand-name insert matters more than heat output, and the surround is being built to size around the unit.
