We want to get an electric fire for a smallish living room, probably 20' x 10' or so.
It doesn't need to be anything fancy, basically wall mountable instead of the current gas fire, and that's about it.
Are there any things to be aware of when choosing this sort of thing?
To put it in context, it's for an elderly relative who's having problems coping with the current gas fire, and rather than take the chance on them not gassing themselves, it seems simpler to get something where that cannot happen.
Presumably the cheaper ones just have a few metres of captive mains flex with a regular 13A plug on the end?
Any help/buying advice would be appreciated.
TIA, Paul
