What it's made for: the glow of a fire without a chimney or a gas line.
The two wall-mounted electric fireplaces closest to it on our rating, with a dated price.
What it has going for it
50 in wide, per the listing. Wide enough to be the focal point of a living-room wall. Check in the installation drawing whether the figure is the frame or the viewing area, then hold it against your wall cavity.
3 flame colors, 15 ember-bed 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.
What the Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) listing names:
Check the opening, the depth and the outlet against your wall before you order.
At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each stated inch of width costs about $56. That puts it in the pricier third of the 117 inserts we have a price for.
Cost per inch is only a rough yardstick: the heater, the flame options and the build count as much as the width.

Our take
We like the Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) for a 50-inch width and 3 flame colors. No buyer has reviewed it yet, so our 5.9/10 comes from the spec sheet alone. The catch with this Napoleon wall-mounted electric fireplace: no heater output in the listing, while most picks here state one. We'd pick it if you like to change the mood of the room; otherwise, put it next to the Dimplex BF45DXP 45" Deluxe Firebox first.
A big, flat box with glass inside: open it with two people and check the front before the cardboard goes out.
Run through the flame colors once, then settle on the one that suits the room.
A quick dust of the glass now and then, and a look at the manual's cleaning page once a season. Our maintenance guide has the rest.
Check whether the flame can run without the heater; the listing we read doesn't say so.
One thing to settle before the Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) ships: check your wall, because the 50-inch figure has to match your opening, and a listing width can mean the frame or just the viewing area.
Draw the opening on the wall with painter's tape at the real size, step back, and check it against the installation drawing. Our recessed installation guide lists the clearances to ask about.
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.
Treat it as supplemental heat for one room. Our supplemental heat planner turns your square footage into a rough answer.
Glass-fronted inserts are big, flat boxes: plan two people for the unboxing. Our built-in vs wall-mounted guide weighs recessed against wall-mounted.
How the Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) stacks up against the closest alternative, the Dimplex BF45DXP 45" Deluxe Firebox.
| Criterion | Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) | Dimplex BF45DXP 45" Deluxe Firebox |
|---|---|---|
| Our rating | 5.9/10 | 5.9/10 |
| Width | 50 in | 45 in |
| Flame colors | 3 | Not stated |
| Flame without heat | Not stated | Stated |
| Thermostat | Not stated | Stated |
Both score 5.9/10. The Dimplex BF45DXP 45" Deluxe Firebox adds a flame-only mode and a thermostat, while the Napoleon Clearion 50 (NEFBD50HE) brings a wider unit (50 in) and more flame colors (3).
We rate it 5.9/10 (fair). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.
Its listing states a 50-inch width and wall-mounted installation. Those are the maker's figures, so check in the installation drawing whether the width means the frame, the firebox or the opening. The listing we read gives no heater figure, so ask the seller before you count on it for warmth.
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.
Its listing states a 50-inch width and 3 flame colors. 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.
