As you can imagine, pricing is one of the most important factors of any purchasing decision. We can find the perfect product for our needs, that fits the brief in every single way. But if it doesn’t fit our budgets, we simply can’t (or at least shouldn’t) buy it. If the brand you buy is important to you, our best advice is to spend some time writing up your own list of ideal brands. That way when you come to the point where you’re comparing product options you can filter to only show the products from brands in your list. This fire can operate via a remote control and can even be used independently of the fully concealed 2kW heater, meaning you can enjoy the classic feel of the fire all year round. The brand of product you buy can vary in importance, from person to person. Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully Dimplex is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Electric fires category. The next step for us was to look at all of the products that fall within the Electric fires category, of which we found 43 products at Argos. So we pulled together all of the prices of these products to analyse the average prices as well as finding the cheapest and most expensive options.

The water tank iseasily accessible by lifting out the one-piece log effect fuel bed and after filling will last around 8 hours. There is also a thermostat incorporated within the fire for added control of the heater.

The freestanding stove also features a 2kW heater to keep you warm on the coldest of nights whilst the thermostatic controls mean you can set your fire to produce heat when the room drops to a certain temperature, helping to maintain the comfort in your home. The Optimyst effect uses patented state-of-the-art technology to create an authentic 3D flame and smoke effect. The effect is created using established ultrasonic water mist technology to generate a cold, completely safe, mist. As the mist rises through the logs, light reflects against the water creating the most realistic flame and smoke effect ever seen in an electric fire.
