Inset vs wall-hung
Wall-mounted and inset wall-mounted electric fireplaces are the two main styles. Inset models like the Vision Futura 1500 and the Evonic Halo 1500 XT are recessed into a wall and feature a flush finish that blends seamlessly into the walls surrounding it. However, inset electric fireplaces require an opening already in place and can be a bit more expensive than their freestanding counterparts.

They are simple to install and don’t require an opening in the wall since they’re not recessed into it. There are models that come with a variety of trims and finishes which can be customised to fit your style.
