Rank #4 in Best Electric Fireplaces 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Spec Sheet That Doesn't Add Up
FLAMEKO Dilton 40" Wall Mounted Electric Fire, Black
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The FLAMEKO DILTON is a 102cm wide wall mounted electric fireplace in black, priced at £158.97 and rated 4.6 out of 5 from 415 ratings. It takes fourth place in this guide, and it is one of the listings the round-up uses to show how little the advertised numbers can agree with each other: the same fiche claims 1800 Watts of heat output and, in the field called Heating Coverage, 40 square feet — a figure you would normally associate with a small space heater rather than an 1800W room heater.
A second mismatch sits in the same fiche. The field Amazon labels "Maximum Compatible Size (in inches)" is filled in as "102 Centimetres", so a field named in inches holds a value in centimetres, and it is the same 102 that describes the width of the fire itself. "Chamber Depth" repeats it too, giving a unit that is 12cm deep a chamber depth of 102 Centimetres. Everything below is taken from the Amazon listing for this model — the specs, the price and the reviews — and not from any testing we carried out.
How those 415 ratings break down
