Heating in our house is starting to get unaffordable for us. Does anyone have an Electric Fireplace in their Bedroom? Does it keep you warm at night?
Which would you recommend, electric or Fuel?
It says it uses as much Electricity as a Coffee Machine.

Answer
Having an electric fire is your bathroom would be against building regulations as electricity and water don't mix, your best option is an oil filled towel heater. I installed one last winter and left it on all the time as once they are hot they do not use much power and it kept the whole upstairs at a reasonable temperature.
Gas or coal is always cheaper than electric for all other fires, I bought my electric fires from http://www.directfiresonline.co.uk they were really helpful advising me on which ones to buy as they have different power outputs and they also got me my bathroom heater even though they don't stock them!

what colour electric fireplace should we buy?

Blasse

We are building a new rec room in the basement. Wall colours are sisal brown and one wall is rust red. The fireplace would be along the rust wall. The trim & doors will be white.

The sofa is called marshmallow and the ottomon will be espresso.

Have I painted myself into a corner? What colour wood looks good on rust?

Answer
I'd go with the espresso. Not quit black and not brown. Good luck!
