The heat the listing states, next to a 400 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
60 in wide, per the listing. A long, linear fire that can carry a whole feature wall. Check in the installation drawing whether the figure is the frame or the viewing area, then hold it against your wall cavity.
1,500 W, up to 400 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 400 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.
6 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.
For the living room, 60 inches of fire are wide enough to anchor a big wall. A 400 sq ft coverage claim is pitched at a main room, not a box room. All those flame colors are made for showing off when friends come round. The app or Alexa can start the fire before you are even home.
For a bedroom or a study, the timer (up to 9 hours) switches it off after you fall asleep. The thermostat holds the temperature instead of baking the room.
On balance it is a living-room centrepiece that can also do a smaller room, not the other way round.
The seller states, word for word, in the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" listing:
Dimensions: 60" W x 19 1⁄4” H x 6 5/16" D (depth).
Enjoy dynamic flame effects with 6 flame color options and 5 flame speeds and intensities.
Control the fireplace remotely via smartphone or voice commands, adjusting flame color, temperature, and timers effortlessly.
The Sideline Elite Pro features a powerful 1500W/750W heater with an adjustable thermostat (68-88°F), providing efficient supplemental heat for rooms up to 400 sq. ft.
Hold these against the manual of the exact model before you order.

What the listing names with it: Remote control, Crystal media, Pebble or driftwood media.
Tick them off on delivery day, before the cardboard goes out.
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 $26. 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.

Short on wall space? The Dimplex Prism 50" Wall-Mount (7.6/10) is 50 in wide, per its listing.
Want the flame without the heat in summer? The Xbeauty 60" Recessed and Wall Mounted (9.3/10) states a flame-only mode.
Rather plug in than hardwire? The Dimplex Sierra 60" Wall-Mount (8.5/10) plugs into a standard outlet, per its listing.
Our take
Our favourite thing about the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" is 60 inches of fire across the wall, closely followed by 1,500 watts of supplemental heat. No buyer reviews yet, so the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" has to win you over on paper. The catch with this Touchstone recessed or wall-mounted fireplace: no flame-only mode in the listing, while most picks here state one. We'd pick the Touchstone if you are building a feature wall around a big TV; otherwise, put it next to the Dimplex IgniteXL 100" Driftwood Kit 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. The 1,500 W heater takes the chill off the room you sit in.
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.
Check whether the flame can run without the heater; the listing we read doesn't say so.
Before you add the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" to your cart: check the wiring, because the listing mentions hardwiring, and that means booking a licensed electrician before the install day.
60 in wide, per the listing. Measure the cavity or the opening (width, height and the depth the manual asks for) and hold it against the installation drawing of this exact model. Our recessed installation guide has the order.
Ask an electrician for a quote before you order, and check whether the unit can also plug in. Our power requirements guide explains the difference.
1,500 W stated. 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, and decide early who frames the wall. Our built-in vs wall-mounted guide weighs recessed against wall-mounted.
How the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" stacks up against the closest alternative, the Dimplex IgniteXL 100" Driftwood Kit.
| Criterion | Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" | Dimplex IgniteXL 100" Driftwood Kit |
|---|---|---|
| Our rating | 7.0/10 | 7.0/10 |
| Width | 60 in | 100 in |
| Heater | 1,500 W | 2,500 W / 8,530 BTU |
| Coverage claim | 400 sq ft | Not stated |
| Flame colors | 6 | Not stated |
Both score 7.0/10. The Dimplex IgniteXL 100" Driftwood Kit adds a wider unit (100 in) and more stated heat (2,500 W / 8,530 BTU), while the Touchstone Sideline Elite Pro 60" brings a bigger coverage claim (400 sq ft) and more flame colors (6).
We rate it 7.0/10 (good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.
Its listing states a 60-inch width, 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.
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.
Its listing states a 60-inch width, a 1,500 W heater, 6 flame colors, Alexa and app control, a thermostat and a 9-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.
