Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove Review

Heater output, per the listing

The heat the listing states, next to a 450 sq ft coverage claim. Plenty to take the chill off the room you sit in; how far it reaches depends on your insulation, windows and ceiling, and our supplemental heat planner turns your room into a rough answer.

What it has going for it

What changes in your evenings

1,500 W, up to 450 sq ft claimed. Supplemental heat for the room you sit in: it takes the edge off a cold evening while the furnace stays turned down. The 450 sq ft figure is the seller's; real coverage depends on your insulation, windows and ceiling. Our supplemental heat planner puts it in numbers for your room.

4 flame colors. Classic orange for winter evenings, something bolder when friends are over, or just the embers glowing behind a movie. How real each setting looks is for your eyes to judge in the photos and videos; the count is the seller's. Our flame effects guide sorts the settings you'll use from the ones you'll forget.

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.

Living room or bedroom?

For the living room, a 450 sq ft coverage claim is pitched at a main room, not a box room.

For a bedroom or a study, at 24 in wide it fits a bedroom wall or a study. The timer (up to 8 hours) switches it off after you fall asleep. The thermostat holds the temperature instead of baking the room. The low heat setting is gentle enough for a smaller 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 chill off one room on cold evenings
  • You like to change the mood of the room
  • You want the glow all year, heat or no heat

Skip it if…

  • You want the width stated up front: the listing we read gives no width
  • You want it to replace your heating: it is supplemental heat for one room
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet

Our take

The verdict

We like the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove for a 1,500 W heater and 4 flame colors. No buyer reviews yet, so this Electactic electric fireplace stove has to win you over on paper. The catch with the Electactic: no stated width in the listing, while most picks here give one. We'd pick it if you want the chill off one room on cold evenings; otherwise, put it next to the RealSmart 22" Infrared Stove in Black first.

Living with it

Delivery day

A small box: unpack, place it, and read the manual's clearance page before you plug in.

The first evening

Run through the flame colors once, then settle on the one that suits the room. The 1,500 W heater takes the chill off the room you sit in.

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 order the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove: check the room, because 1,500 W is supplemental heat, so it warms the room you sit in, not the house.

Before you buy

Where it stands

Leave the clearance the manual asks for around it, and keep curtains and throws out of the way of the heater outlet.

Heat for your room

1,500 W stated, 450 sq ft claimed. 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

Is the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove any good?

We rate it 6.8/10 (good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

What size and heater output does the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove state?

Its listing states a 1,500 W heater output and recessed (in-wall) installation. Those are the maker's figures, so check in the installation drawing whether the width means the frame, the firebox or the opening. Our supplemental heat planner puts 1,500 W in context for your room.

What power supply does the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove need?

The listing states 1,500 W heater. 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 Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove?

Its listing states a 1,500 W heater, 4 flame colors, a flame that runs without the heat, a thermostat, an infrared quartz heater and a 8-hour 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 Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove?

Where it stands: leave the clearance the manual asks for around it, and keep curtains and throws out of the way of the heater outlet. Heat for your room: 1,500 W stated, 450 sq ft claimed. 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.

Where can I buy the Electactic 1500W Infrared Stove?
