Value for money . Beautiful fire and with real coal, perfect.
What I liked was it came in one piece.
Bought it to replace my old fire.l
The fire effect is fabulous. Don’t know about the heat as haven’t used it. Bought it as a focal point and it’s first class for that.
Very pleased with the Dimplex Wynford inset fire with Optiflame Effect. It arrived very quickly and well packaged. Easy to install in our fireplace. Didn’t require the spacer kit which was supplied as it fitted perfectly into the opening. Good heat from the fan heater and the flame effect is very nice. Not as bright as our previous one but happy that it is very silent when on flame effect and just a little noise when fan heat is on.
My partners parents have just had their old fire ripped out and their bungalow fitted with a new central heating system. So she decided we would get them an electric heater for their frontroom to go were their old fire was. This was our choice and what a great decision it was. Her parents love it and seeing as they’re both retired and spend most of their time when home in their frontroom they can have this on instead of the central heating. This saves them money whilst keeping them warm.
Replacing an older model which was rather ugly and boxy. This one is much slimmer so looks much more within fireplace than sitting in front of it. Simple and non-fussy design suits our old house.
We love this fire. We needed to replace our gas fire and wanted something which looked realistic. This fit the bill and we are thoroughly enjoying it.
One minor gripe is that the lovely ’ember glow’ also shines out of a strip at the bottom of the fire. Ideally they would have put a strip there to prevent that happening. We blocked it ourselves
We haven’t tried the heater properly as yet – other than switching it on for a moment to see that a) it worked and b) there was a reasonable amount of heat – as it’s too warm for heating at present. If it doesn’t heat well then I will update this review.
I just love this fire and it has a really good heat output. Not that I have needed it with this heatwave at the moment. Very easy to install and looks really nice.
Well packaged item and arrived promptly. Will fit in most fireplaces with a recess to accept the inset on the rear of the fire. The pebbles are easily loaded and when switched on a lovely flame effect. Two heat switch settings but the low setting seems a little on the low side for the strength of the fan . Setting two fine. The fan seems a little noisy but you get used to i
Realistic flam effect. I wasn’t sure about the white stones but they are really impressive when fire is on, looks like real hot coals, definitely recommend this

Really liked this fire, looks good and thermostat is great as it turns itself on and off so room stays comfortable whilst keeping flame effect on.
Super quality , modern and stylish and functional.value for money.
I bought this to replace a gas fire it looks well and make a focal point the heater makes a nice difference instead of having to put on heating. A good buy

Wanted to replace our old gas fire but keep fireplace. Considered lots of options until I came across this. Didn’t want freestanding so went with inset. Old fire out, new one slotted in just fine (with a bit of chiselling out of fireplace). Easy to follow instructions. End result is a lovely, modern fire which gives off lots of heat, even on setting one. Can just have flame effect on and the room feels warmer. Yes fan takes a bit of getting use to, but will soon be un-noticable after a few uses. Well worth the money.
The only downside is that the LED fire glow bulbs cannot be replaced. They do say though that on average use of 8hrs a day they should last between 11 to 15 years. Time will tell I suppose.
Quick delivery, well packaged, adjusted rear supports to enable perfect fit to our fireplace, we love the flame effect, overall very pleased with this purchase.
Good value for money lovely flame e4fect just looks real

Really pleased with this fire .It looks lovely and very warming to look at.
Love this fire! Totally changes the atmosphere of my sitting room! Looks good too!
This fire looks great and the flame effect is brilliant and makes the room look and feel snug and comfy Easy to install and operate, very pleased
Only draw back is you can’t replace the light source for the lame effect as they are not conventional bulbs
It was just what I have been looking for. The flame is really bright and the coals make it look even more realistic.
Super fire & great effect. Excellent value for money & would recommend this product to anyone looking for an electric fire.
The one issue I have is that there is a problem with the instructions in my opinion they should recommend that when lifting the fire gloves should be worn at all times as the edges to the brass surround are very sharp in fact lethal as my wife cut three of her fingers badly when we were removing the fire from its box.

Perfect! Installed in 5 minutes, and the flame effect is very impressive. Delighted.
Please note this item if it had not been damaged would have received 5 stars and not 4 as I scored this on my review. I will add that these are fine and hard to see when fitted but very obvious when laid down and if it had not had been for the hassle I would have returned the item for a replacement. So for the poor images of the scratches they were really hard to get to show up on the camera and this damage is on the front left chrome trim going up the fire place
Looks lovely and the coal effect is one of the best we have seen.
very pleased with the fire, lots of nice comments from all the visitors to my home.
