We are planning to include a new electric fireplace as part of our remodel and i was wondering if anyone had a recommendation on where to purchase. The selection at HD and Lowes is pretty slim. I found a couple websites like the ones below but wasn't sure about them. I was hoping to find somewhere someone had a good experience with. TIA

dimplex is a good electric fireplace manufacturer.

Just out of curiosity, where are you located, and why do you want to go electric and not traditional?

Thanks. Main reason for electrical is we don't have gas and don't want to deal with installing a chimney/stack through the roof for a traditional wood burning since this is being added to an existing home.
