What you get
The duraflame DFI-550-22 Electric Stove Heater is an electric stove; the listing doesn't state the heater's wattage.
The maker says it heats up to 1,000 square feet; as with any 120-volt heater, read that as supplemental heat for one room.
Like most electric fireplaces the flame effect can run with the heater off, using far less power.
Its stove shape sits on the floor anywhere near an outlet, with no vent or chimney.
Because nothing burns, there's no chimney, vent or carbon monoxide to plan for.
Also on the listing: overall dimensions of 10.75 in (D) x 21 in (W) x 23 in (H), a shipping or unit weight of 19.1 lb and glass, metal, plastic construction.
