What you get
The RealSmart Flow 6 BK Electric Stove Heater is an electric stove with a 1,000-watt heater, which works out to about 3,412 BTU per hour (3.412 BTU per watt).
Its 1,000 watts means 8.3 amps on a household outlet and 1.0 kWh for each hour on high. The fuel cost calculator turns that into your hourly cost.
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.
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 9.06 in (D) x 15.75 in (W) x 21.65 in (H), a shipping or unit weight of 5.7 kg and abs plastic construction.
