Electric Stoves – are they worth considering?

Wood burning stoves have increased in popularity over the last few years due to their attractive looks and efficient heat. Over the years different brands have released different stoves leaving countless designs to choose from depending on your budget and style choice.

But wood burning stoves aren’t for everyone. If the stove way of life doesn’t suit yours, an electric stove may be the perfect alternative. Many brands have started to push ‘alternatives’ which means the design of electric stoves have become increasingly realistic, meaning you can get the look of a wood burning stove but the hassle-free heat that an electric stove brings.

Traditional Styling

When you imagine a wood burning stove, you picture a traditional styled box looking stove. If this is the look you are after, there are many different electric alternatives. The Dovre 425 and Broseley Lincoln are stunning stoves that will create that cosy atmosphere that you will enjoy without the disturbance of having to keep re-fuelling the fire.

Contemporary Styling

Due to increasing popularity of ‘alternative’ heating solutions, many brands have designed contemporary styled electric stoves, which means there are some stunning options for those edgy looks. For a modern, stylish finish, the Gazco Riva or the Yeoman CL5 electric stoves could be the perfect choice. The range of sizes these stoves offer may help you create that sturdy wood burning look that you are after.

Easy to Use

Now coming to the main reason why you should consider an electric stove, how easy they are to use. All you need is a plug socket! Plug it in and get ready for the 1 or 2kW heat coming your way. Once you are set up, all you need to do is get to grips with the remote from the luxury of your best arm chair. The remote may be slightly different depending on what brand you decide to go with. For example, some brands offer the option of changing the flame visuals.
