Heater output, per the listing

The heat the listing states. 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

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.

1,500 W. Supplemental heat for the room you sit in: it takes the edge off a cold evening while the furnace stays turned down. Real coverage depends on your insulation, windows and ceiling height. Our supplemental heat planner puts it in numbers for your room.

144 color combinations. 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.

Living room or bedroom?

For the living room, 50 inches of fire are wide enough to anchor a big wall. 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 24 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 a living-room centrepiece that can also do a smaller room, not the other way round.

Great for you if…

You want the chill off one room on cold evenings
You like to change the mood of the room
You like to run the living room from your phone

Skip it if…

Your wall can't give it 50 in plus the clearances in the manual
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

Price and cost per inch of width

$599 Price on Sep 30, 2026 · may have changed

At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each stated inch of width costs about $12. That puts it around the middle 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.

The button opens the exact listing (ASIN B0F8HMQLYG), where today's price, stock and seller apply. Sizes and bundles of the same family often sit at different prices.

A better fit for your room?

Want a wider fire for a bigger wall? The Touchstone Sideline 60" Smart (9.5/10) states 60 in.

Short on wall space? The Innoflame 36" Insert with Log Set (7.7/10) is 36 in wide, per its listing.

Our take

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed is 50 inches of fire across the wall, closely followed by 1,500 watts of supplemental heat. No buyer reviews yet, so the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed has to win you over on paper. Where it falls short: the heat figure is the seller's, and your room, windows and insulation decide what you really feel. We'd pick it if you want the chill off one room on cold evenings; otherwise, put it next to the EUHOMY 50" Recessed and Wall Mounted first.

Living with it

Delivery day

A big, flat box with glass inside: open it with two people and check the front before the cardboard goes out.

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 add the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed to your cart: 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.

Before you buy

Your wall

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.

The outlet

120 V, per the listing. 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.

Heat for your room

1,500 W stated. Treat it as supplemental heat for one room. Our supplemental heat planner turns your square footage into a rough answer.

Delivery and install

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.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed any good?

We rate it 7.4/10 (good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

What size and heater output does the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed state?

Its listing states a 50-inch width, a 1,500 W heater output, a 120 V supply 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 Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed need?

The listing states 120 V and a 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 Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed?

Its listing states a 50-inch width, a 1,500 W heater, 144 flame color combinations, Alexa and app control, a flame that runs without the heat and a thermostat. 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 Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed?

Your wall: 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. The outlet: 120 V, per the listing. 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. Heat for your room: 1,500 W stated. Treat it as supplemental heat for one room. Our supplemental heat planner turns your square footage into a rough answer. Delivery and install: 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.

Where can I buy the Westinghouse 50" Wall/Recessed?
