Candace S

ive been wanting one of those electric fireplaces, but today noticed their really big for my apartment. but they had a electric pot belly stove too, much smaller and would serve the same purpose. the electric fireplaces supposively use about as much electric as a coffee maker. can anyone help me out here???

Answer
The electric fireplace are more for looks than for heating results. You are better off buying a portable heater if you are looking for heating performance.

Do you save on electric bill with infrared stove?

I have baseboard electric heat. It is rather expensive to run where I live. I have seen these infrared electric fireplace stoves.My question is do they use less electricity or the same or more than baseboard electric heat. My downstairs room has two 6 foot baseboard heaters. Thanks, Dan

Ask around your local electrical retailers they should be able to advise you
