The flame effect is decorative — the heater inside is not · review
Juskys 1800W review
A freestanding electric stove with a cast-iron-style black cabinet, LED flame effect, and a two-stage 900/1800 W heater controllable by app, WiFi, or infrared remote. The flame runs independently of the heater, with a 12/24 h timer and an adjustable target temperature.
The bottom line Juskys markets the 1800W as a decorative stove with a genuinely useful heater bolted on, not the reverse: the flame effect operates independently, and the 900/1800 W output is presented as supplemental warmth rather than a primary heating claim. At its checked price it undercuts the other three fireplaces in this comparison, at the cost of a published room-coverage figure and of being currently listed for sale on only three of the six markets checked.
What Juskys actually claims
The 1800W is sold as an “Elektrokamin” — an electric stove in a black, cast-iron-style cabinet, built around two components the listing is careful to separate: a decorative LED flame effect, and a 900/1800 W fan heater. Juskys states the two run independently, so the flame can stay lit through a warm evening with the heater off, or the heater can run with the flame effect switched to standby. That independence is a feature worth checking on any electric fireplace before buying, and it is explicit here rather than implied.
Heater output and what it does not say
The heater has two stages, 900 W and 1800 W, controlled through the app, over WiFi, or with the bundled infrared remote. What the listing does not include is a stated square-metre coverage for the heater — many electric fireplaces in this comparison publish a room-size figure (Kaminio’s Marlon Pro, for instance, states up to 30 m²); Juskys gives wattage only. Buyers sizing this for a specific room are working from the 1800 W figure alone, with no manufacturer coverage claim to check it against.
Control and timer
Beyond the remote that ships with most stoves in this category, Juskys adds app and WiFi control — not universal at this price point — plus a 12/24 h timer and an adjustable target temperature. The flame brightness and colour tone are separately adjustable through the same controls, per the manufacturer’s feature list.
Cabinet, weight, and fit
The unit measures roughly 75 × 45 × 35 cm and Juskys states a 12.1 kg body weight for the cast-iron-style housing (Amazon’s own logistics data records 13.8 kg for the item as shipped, likely including the base and hardware). That is on the heavier side for a freestanding stove of this footprint — worth factoring in if it is going on a lightweight stand or media unit rather than the floor. The housing carries an IP20 rating, meaning indoor dry-room use only, standard for this product category.
Market availability
Checked directly against Keepa on 24 August 2026, ASIN B0FQJWR99K is listed for sale on Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, and Amazon.it, with identical pricing structure across the three. The same ASIN exists in Amazon’s catalogue on ES, GB, and US as well, but with zero active offers on each — present in the listing database, not currently purchasable there. That distinction matters: a catalogue entry with no seller is not a live product page for a shopper.
Verdict
Juskys draws a clear, checkable line between the flame effect (decorative, independent) and the heater (900/1800 W, supplemental) — exactly the distinction this category rewards being explicit about. It is the least expensive of the four fireplaces compared here and the only one offering app/WiFi control, but it ships without a room-coverage figure for the heater and, as of this check, is only actually purchasable on three of the six markets tested.

What we like, and what we don't
Strengths
Flame effect runs on its own, with no heater draw — useful for year-round ambience
Two heat stages (900 / 1800 W) instead of a single fixed output
App and WiFi control in addition to the bundled remote, which most entry-level stoves skip
12/24 h timer and adjustable target temperature built in
Compromises
Juskys does not publish a room-coverage figure in square metres for the heater — only the wattage
Cast-iron-style cabinet at 12.1 kg is heavier than typical plastic-bodied stoves, worth checking against the stand or media unit it will sit on
Listed for sale only on DE, FR, and IT at the time of checking; not currently offered on ES, GB, or US despite appearing in those catalogues

Questions people actually ask
Can the flame run without the heater switched on?
Yes. Juskys lists the flame effect as independently controllable, so it can stay on through summer for ambience while the 900/1800 W heater stays off.
Does Juskys say this can replace a room's main heating?
No. Juskys markets it as a stove-style electric fireplace with a two-stage 900/1800 W heater — a wattage in line with a supplemental space heater, not a whole-room primary heat source, and the listing does not claim otherwise.
Is it controllable from a phone?
Yes — the listing specifies app and WiFi control alongside the included infrared remote, on top of the usual physical settings.

Who this one is for
A first electric stove for a living room corner where the flame effect matters as much as the heat, and app control is a genuine plus rather than a gimmick.

Juskys 1800W
140 €
900 / 1800 W, two stages
≈ 75 × 45 × 35 cm (H×L×W), 12.1 kg body (Amazon logs 13.8 kg shipped)
2000 W · stepless thermostat · floor-standing cabinet
A floor-standing console fireplace in a dark oak-effect cabinet, built as furniture rather than an insert. BALDERIA states a stepless heater up to 2 kW with an integrated thermostat, a 3D LED flame effect with three flame patterns and 13 colours, and no-drill assembly the listing puts at around 30 minutes.
Best for: A living room with floor space for a dedicated fireplace cabinet, where fine thermostat control and no-drill setup matter more than wall-mounting flexibility.
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.
900/1800 W · up to 30 m² · stand, built-in or wall
A 3-in-1 electric fireplace KAMINIO rates to heat rooms up to 30 m², fitted as a freestanding stove, built into a wall recess, or wall-mounted, with mounting hardware included for all three. A 3D LED flame effect with 12 colours and 5 brightness levels runs independently of the 900/1800 W heater, controlled by remote with a thermostat set between 16 and 28 °C.
Best for: A living-room feature wall where the fireplace needs to work equally well recessed into cabinetry now and free-standing later if the room is rearranged.
