Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft Review

The Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft ticks most of the boxes we care about: a flame that runs without the heat, a thermostat and an infrared quartz heater. It makes most sense for an empty hearth that deserves a fire again; we rate it 6.4/10 from its listing.

What it has going for it

What changes in your evenings

Flame without heat. The heater and the flame run separately, so you can have the glow in July without warming the room. The fireplace earns its place all year, not only in January.

Thermostat. Set a temperature and the heater cycles on its own instead of running flat out until you remember to turn it down.

Infrared quartz heater. Infrared quartz warms the people and furniture in front of it more than the air around them.

Living room or bedroom?

For the living room, a 1,000 sq ft coverage claim is pitched at a main room, not a box room.

For a bedroom or a study, the timer switches it off after you fall asleep. The thermostat holds the temperature instead of baking the room. The flame runs without heat, so it can glow on a warm night too.

On balance it is happiest in a bedroom, a study or a cosy corner.

Great for you if…

  • You want the glow all year, heat or no heat
  • You hate fiddling with the heat

Skip it if…

  • You want the width stated up front: the listing we read gives no width
  • You want the heater output stated: the listing we read gives no wattage or BTU figure
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet

Our take

The verdict

On the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft, a flame that runs without the heat is what caught our eye, and a thermostat doesn't hurt either. No buyer reviews yet, so the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft has to win you over on paper. The catch with the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft: no stated width in the listing, while most picks here give one. We'd pick it if you want the glow all year, heat or no heat; otherwise, put it next to the Dimplex Revillusion 20" Log Insert first.

Living with it

Delivery day

It arrives assembled, per the listing: unbox, place, plug in.

The first evening

Try the flame at a few brightness settings; lower often looks more real at night.

Day to day

The remote on the sofa arm, the thermostat set once, the timer for bedtime, and a quick dust of the glass now and then. Our maintenance guide has the rest.

Summer

Heater off, flame on: the glow stays on the wall in July without warming the room.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you add the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft to your cart: check your hearth, because the log set has to sit inside your opening, with an outlet within cord reach.

Before you buy

Your hearth

Measure the width and depth of the opening, and check what the manual says about the hearth floor and the damper.

Heat for your room

It is a supplemental heater for one room. Our 1,500 W guide explains what that output really covers.

The outlet

Pick the outlet before you pick the finish: a free one close by, nothing heavy on the same circuit, and no extension cord. Our power requirements guide lists the questions to ask.

Frequently asked questions

We rate it 6.4/10 (fair). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

What power supply does the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft need?

The listing we read does not state its supply voltage or heater wattage. Read the supply, plug and circuit conditions on the exact listing and in the manual before you order, and never run a heater on an extension cord or a shared power strip. Anything beyond an existing standard outlet, hardwiring or 240 V included, is a job for a licensed electrician.

What do you get with the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft?

Its listing states a flame that runs without the heat, a thermostat, an infrared quartz heater and a timer. Those are the seller's figures; for how real the flames look in a living room and how loud the fan runs at night, the buyer reviews are the better guide.

What should I check before ordering the Duraflame Infrared Log Set, 1,000 sq ft?

Your hearth: measure the width and depth of the opening, and check what the manual says about the hearth floor and the damper. Heat for your room: it is a supplemental heater for one room. Our 1,500 W guide explains what that output really covers. The outlet: pick the outlet before you pick the finish: a free one close by, nothing heavy on the same circuit, and no extension cord. Our power requirements guide lists the questions to ask.
