Features 6

  • APPEARANCE: This Sideline electric fireplace features an anti-glare steel/screen front for a more traditional fireplace display, without the reflection of glass. Creating a cozy atmosphere of a conventional fireplace, this electronic fireplace has realistic flames with a real fire look. The Sidelines 5 flame settings radiate a soft ember glow up to an intense blaze. Sideline gives you the total package. Control the heat and flame with the remote control.
  • INSTALLATION: This Sideline installs simply and can safely be attached to framing studs. The sides & back of the unit remain cool to the touch with the heat feature on. Recommended minimum of 8 of space between the top of the fireplace and your TV, mantel, picture ceiling. The Sideline can be installed in existing fireplace openings safely. Consult with a licensed professional to ensure your unused gas lines and vents are secured properly.
  • OPERATION: The Sidelines heater will take the edge off a cool room or basement, and it can be run with no heat (just flames) in warmer climates. The Sideline comes with a 6-foot power cord for a 110-120V outlet. It is also hard-wire ready for in-wall install. The unit draws a max of 12 amps, so the fireplace can be used on a 15-amp circuit. A 20-amp circuit may be necessary, depending on the use of other electronics on that same electric circuit.
  • FEATURES: The Sideline features an unmatched flame. Friends will be nervous to touch realistic flame behind the glass. The Sideline includes faux-fire logs & crystals to create an authentic feel, as well as an IR remote controlling flame color & intensity, the heater and shut-off timer. Front facing heater vents allow you to position the Sideline just 8 under a flat screen TV. The Sideline can be hardwired or plugged in to your electric source.

Cozy Fireplace Checkpoint Unlocked
Size: 60 Inches
I bought this fireplace a year ago, wanted to try it out for a while before I left a review. I’m so happy with this purchase. I had looked into a few different touchstone models before choosing this one. Ultimately I chose this model for the metal surround and mesh front that made it look and feel more like a traditional fireplace. I love that this is not glass fronted and my kiddos can’t leave grubby fingerprints all over it. The flame pattern is nice although if this fireplace had existed with the flame pattern of the Elite or Infinity Pro I would have upgraded to that version. It is still as quiet a year later as it was the day we installed it. The install was super simple and straightforward. It cannot heat my whole living room but we have an open floor plan and I never expected it to be able to do this, it is cozy to lay or stand in front of when the heat is on. Overall the quality has been great for the price we paid. I would definitely get another touchstone in the future. ... show more

No Smudge Screen is Worth It
Size: 50 Inches
Looks & Feels High End Like others, I browsed dozens of options. We chose this unit because of the no-smudge screen. With kids at home, this means no fingerprints on the glass—a HUGE benefit. For installation, I'll note that the face of the product is only removable if you remove the entire unit. This means repairs or access will be difficult in the future. It's also important to size your framing large enough to be able to slide the unit in and out. It's not quite as bright as I would like, particularly on sunny days, but it does have a nice glow in the evening. The heater and timer function is nice, but it's the heat up, rather than out. Depending on placement, this may heat your mantle or TV rather than your room. Overall, I have recommended this product to others. I personally think most electrical fireplaces look tacky, this one doesn't. ... show more

It is fantastic!
Size: 50 Inches
We absolutely love this electric fireplace. We were so sad that we moved to this condo and weren't allowed to have a gas fireplace, which we used all the time through fall and winter. This one is a great alternative that looks so realistic and even has a heater if we want to use. So nice to snuggle in front of our fake fire through those cold winter nights. Our Grandsone who is an electrician easily assembled it. What a great value for the money. ... show more

Thrilled with Touchstone 80013 Electric Fireplace!
Size: 50 Inches
We are so thrilled with our Touchstone 80013 Electric Fireplace. It's the best choice we could have made for our situation. We have solar so by going electric, we reduced the cost of running a fireplace and secondly, the metal screen provides a warmer, cozier look than glass-faced versions. We were able to inset the fireplace into a custom cabinet since the vents blow forward rather than out the top or sides. We couldn't be more pleased with our purchase and would highly recommend to anyone looking to go electric. Someone asked if it came with crystals, as well as the logs... yes, it comes with both the crystals and the logs so you have the option to choose what you like best. I haven't used the crystals so I don't know how it looks in the fireplace (I prefer the logs), but wanted to include a picture of the crystals so you have an idea if this is something you may prefer. ... show more

Nice fireplace
Size: 50 Inches
It looks great and was easy to install. The bezel could be a little larger so the hole it fits in does not need to be so precise. One issue is an annoying grinding noise when the flames are on. I have contacted the company to see what they will do for me. It is under warranty still. Updated***** I sent the company a video with the noise it was making and they sent me a new unit, no questions. The new one is perfectly quiet. ... show more

We love this fireplace.
Size: 50 Inches
Love, love, love our fireplace. It arrived on time and in good condition. We have temporarily hung it on the wall with the bracket that came with it (quick and easy) but plan to install as recessed when we have more time. It allows 3 flame choices and we love the blue and orange combination and we use the logs not the crystals. It looks sooooo real. We bought the mess screen and are really happy that we did. We don't use the heater very often but when we do it is just to "stand by the fire and warm up" and it works great for that. Reminds me of when we were kids playing in the snow and we would come in by the fireplace to thaw out. We would definitely buy this again! ... show more

Installation instructions for Model 80013 are contradictory and incorrect
Size: 50 Inches
Installation instructions were contradictory and incorrect for the model I purchased. Instructions refer to a glass panel but this model does not come with a glass panel. The front panel is held in place with hooked tabs. None of the tabs lined up with the mating slots on the fireplace. I had to struggle for hours trying to get everything back in alignment. Once the front panel is installed the instructions say to insert 2 screws in the the two upper tabs on the fireplace. However, once the front panel is installed the upper tabs are not accessible. Very frustrating. I had to make a couple of custom brackets to secure the top of the front cover to the fireplace. Once I finally got beyond those issues, the fireplace looks nice and operates well. Touchstone needs to update their instructions/ procedures for the 80013 model. ... show more
