What you get

The Dimplex XHD23G Electric Fireplace TV Stand is a TV stand or mantel with a 1,500-watt heater, which works out to about 5,118 BTU per hour (3.412 BTU per watt).

At 1,500 watts it uses about 1.5 kWh an hour on high and draws 12.5 amps at 120 volts; keep it on a circuit without other big loads. Price it at your electricity rate.

Like most electric fireplaces the flame effect can run with the heater off, using far less power.

It combines the heater with a cabinet, mantel or TV stand; check the top's weight and screen-size limits in the listing.

Electric fireplaces burn nothing, so they produce no carbon monoxide and need no vent, chimney or gas line.

Also on the listing: overall dimensions of 7.5 in (D) x 23 in (W) x 20.5 in (H), a shipping or unit weight of 27.6 lb and metal construction.
