Realistic Flame

The heart of Touchstone’s electric fireplaces is the impressive flame display. These flames deliver the same relaxing effect as real flames without the hassle. They create a cozy atmosphere in any room and offer 60 color combinations for customization. Operate the heat and flame settings conveniently with the remote control (batteries not included) or mobile app.

The Sideline Elite® provides heat that takes the edge off a cool bedroom, family room or basement. It has two heat settings and a thermostat mode and can warm up a room up to 400 sq. ft. Please note that it is not intended to be the primary heat source but rather to supplement your existing heating system. Control the heat settings using the remote, app or the built-in heat timer.

Mounting and Use

The versatile Sideline Elite electric fireplace can be inserted into or mounted on your wall. Follow the provided instructions for easy installation. For optimal placement, position the fireplace at least 8 inches below the ceiling or below a mounted flat screen TV, considering its heating feature. We recommend placing the fireplace at least 6 inches from the floor. 

Visit the Smart Electric Fireplace WiFi Quick Start page for more information on the WiFi-enabled capabilities, mobile app set up and smart home networking.

Transform your space with ease using our add-on Encase Wood Mantel. Crafted from 100% real wood pine, this mantel requires no assembly with included hanging boards and hardware. Its solid wood construction provides a durable platform for display and storage, making it the ideal addition to your Touchstone fireplace.

All Touchstone mantels are designed for use with Touchstone Electric Fireplaces. If considering use with a different fireplace, we recommend consulting a professional installer for compatibility and safe installation.

Great Fireplace

Ordering this product was a great choice. I received a personal email from Touchstone very quickly after ordering and had someone to contact with issues or questions. UPS freight had some issues with delivery but that isn’t the sellers fault. The fireplace arrived in perfect condition and works wonderfully. It is virtually silent during operation, with the exception of the fan when quietly blowing heat. The smaller fireplace in our bedroom was ordered from Amazon and is a different brand...not even close to the quality of this Touchstone fireplace, but you get what you pay for. The Touchstone was more expensive but worth every penny. It is a great addition to our renovated living room.

Fantastic

This product and also very much the company has totally exceeded our expectations. The unit is quality made, super attractive looking and the company has excellent service and communication. I had questions about parts availability and support in later years and am confident that Touchstone will be here for the long haul. They even offered a retroactive prime day discount which I was not aware of when placing the order. Thank you very much. Looking forward to enjoying this unit for a long time

Awesome Fireplace - Way better than Gas

We had a gas fireplace (put in by the homebuilder). It was smelly, small and didn't really blaze. We had it removed and replaced with an electric fireplace from Touchstone. The installation went without a hitch, and the remote is so easy to use. The appearance is simply stunning. And it's bright, has adjustable flame speeds, not to mention all the different options it has for flame and ember colors. Its presence really elevates the overall appearance of the room to something from a design magazine. Highly recommend!
