Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024
When I purchased the fireplace, the gel fuel was $25 for 12 cans. Burning 3 cans of fuel at once gave you a real fire with about 8000 BTUs of heat without the smoke and hassle of dealing with ash. I can’t have a gas fireplace, so this was the compromise.
Over the years, the cost of the gel fuel has risen from $25/12 cans to $96/12 cans. Where it once cost $3.50 for a fire that lasted 3 hours, it now costs $24 for those same 3 hrs of burn time. The heat from that fire costs more than that from the central heating.
Also the EPA decided that a chemical scent needed to be added to the gel fuel like propane and natural gas, so that consumers would know that a flammable fuel was in use. Now, every time I burn the gel fuel, my entire house reeks from the added scent chemicals. (The gel fuel manufacturers still advertise the fuel as Oder free, but that’s a lie.)
That’s when I started to seriously look at electric fireplaces. Back in 1995, when I bought the gel fuel fireplace, electric fireplaces looked laughably fake. Everything was made of hollow plastic with an incandescent flicker bulb creating the “fire” effect. The fireplace, itself, was usually made of lightweight fiberglass with a simulated stone façade. (My fireplace mantle is made of real cherrywood.)
Electric fires today have come a long way in realism. There are still cheap electric hearths that look like the plastic they’re made of, but they’ve all been updated to flickering LEDs.
After looking at every option, from TV screens with plastic logs attached to their fronts and electric hearths with spinning reflectors, I settled on two choices.
The Dimplex 20-in Revillusion® Plug-in Electric Fireplace Log Set and the LegendFlame 23" W Free Standing Electric Fireplace Log Set.
I got this one, LegendFlame 23" W Free Standing Electric Fireplace Log Set. It was half the cost of the Dimplex, but used nearly identical synthetic fire technology.
The LegendFlame 23" is the same size as the metal grates and ceramic logs that I had in the gel fuel fireplace and it fit perfectly after a few small modifications.
The “fire” is projected onto a frosted plexiglass screen to give the realistic flame height of a real fire. I my case, the plexiglass screen attached to the back of the hearth was too tall for my firebox. The LegendFlame 23" needs almost 20” of firebox height, mine was only 17.5” at the back wall. It was designed to reflect as much light and heat from the original burning gel fuel.
I had planned to drill new mounting holes into the plexiglass, but that would cause the screen to partially cover the vents on the back of the unit. Fortunately, there was an easy fix for me. Since my firebox was made of powder coated steel, I simply attached the plexiglass screen to the back wall of the firebox with 3M Command adhesive strips.
A lot of people commented that the screen is very visible during the day. For me, that was less of a problem because the lower height of my back wall was designed to hide the cans of burning gel fuel.
However, I later removed the plexiglass and lined the back wall of my firebox with frosted window film. The screen was still noticeable if you sat on the floor, so I had to find a solution to that problem. Otherwise, I’d focus on the screen and not the fire.
I’m fortunate that the back of my firebox has a smooth black surface that is ideal to mount frosted window film to use as a projection screen for the flame effect.
If you’ve got real stone or brick masonry, this won’t work, so I would suggest, instead, to buy a sheet of frosted plexiglass or acrylic and cut it to completely cover the back of your firebox from edge to edge.
So on to the actual review of the LegendFlame 23" W Free Standing Electric Fireplace Log Set.
I grew up in a house with a real wood burning fireplace that got used every winter. The flame effect is very realistic compared to a real fire. These fake electric fires have come a long way.
I did deduct one star for the “crackling fire” sound effect. Like others have said, it sounds like the fire is burning in a metal bucket. (In all fairness, the burning gel fuel sounded the same because it was burning in 8oz. Paint cans)
Edit: I’ve since replaced the built in speaker with the $14 Dayton Audio PC68-4 2-1/2" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver that was suggested by another reviewer. The sound quality is much better than before. Thanks to the reviewer who suggested it.
It’s easy to replace the original speaker. Removing 7 screws that attach the silver cover under the base gives you direct access to the speaker. Just remove the two screws that attach the speaker to the housing. The new speaker just clips in place of the original speaker and mounts perfectly inside and behind the speaker grill.
One big want for the sound is better volume control. You should be able to adjust the sound level linearly like on a TV remote. Not in steps of three fixed levels. To my ear, the lowest level is still unnaturally loud. In my case, that could be attributed to the fact that the firebox was designed to project the sound of burning gel fuel into the room.( I covered the speaker with foam, but most of the sound is resonating in the heater box.
The heat output is just OK. It won’t heat a room with only 4-5000 BTUs. The fan is relatively quiet for a space heater, but in this case I wish it was silent.
What’s the verdict? I really like this electric fire. It really does look like a real fire burning in my fireplace. Burn some sandalwood incense for the scent and smoke effect and people will probably mistake it for the real thing. (Provided they don’t look too closely)
