Our Most Realistic Electric Log Burners

Everyone loves that cosy feeling of warming up around a log burner on a winter's day - but, not everyone loves the work that comes with one!

This is just one reason why electric log burners have become so popular for today’s homes. No sourcing fuel, cleaning up ash and regular flue sweeping; just instant heat, with no mess.

Even better, they don’t require a chimney at all - you can simply plug one in and switch them on straight away!

Most of today’s best log burners come with a host of other benefits too.

One of the biggest is thermostatic heat control and timer functions. So, unlike with a real log burner, you can control the heat to the most comfortable temperature - and even come home from work to it already flickering away ready for you!

Don’t think you won’t get the same flame display, either. You can find incredibly realistic electric log burners that have both impressive flame displays and authentic designs.

Our Most Realistic Electric Log Burners at Direct Stoves

To find the most realistic electric stove, you need to find one that has authentic looking flames and fuel bed, as well as capturing the traditional log burner exterior.

You don’t want it to be too small either. Many cheaper electric stoves on the market aren’t large enough to fully look like a real log burner, so invest if you can in a good quality one.

Take a look at our four favourite electric fires that look just like real log burners to get started!
