What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Dimplex Revillusion for delivering an exceptionally realistic electric fireplace aesthetic. The standout feature is the Revillusion flame technology, consistently described as bright, deep, and convincing enough to fool observers into thinking it is a real fire. This high level of visual satisfaction is enhanced by the realistic log set and versatile lighting options. Installation is generally straightforward for a built in unit. While the supplemental heater effectively warms a zone, the quiet operation is a major benefit for ambiance. Despite a premium price point, most buyers feel the superior quality and unmatched visual performance justify the investment, making this a highly recommended luxury centerpiece.
Know before you buy
The unit is designed for a built-in installation, which typically requires basic framing and electrical work. While it can be plugged into a standard outlet, hardwiring it is often preferred for a cleaner, seamless look, which may require a licensed electrician.
Yes, the Revillusion flame technology operates independently of the heater. You can enjoy the visual ambiance of the glowing logs and flames year-round without any heat output.
The built-in fan-forced heater is capable of warming an area up to 1,000 square feet. It features thermostatic control, allowing you to maintain a consistent temperature in your room.
Yes, the tempered glass remains cool to the touch even while the heater is in operation. This makes it a safe choice for households with young children or pets.
