Recommendation for a 60" electric (simulated) fire for a media wall?

[garmcqui]

Hi all,

Am in the process of building a media wall. Trying to decide on an electric fire for it - bit of a minefield!

I don't have £2k to fork out for a fire, so trying to keep it in or around the £1k range, but equally don't want to be looking at it for the next 5-10 years regretting it!

I'm just wondering if anyone has any recommendations? So far I've looked at:

Evolution Spectrum Series Panoramic HD+ 60 Inch 3 Sided Fire – Prestige Home Fires

Rosedale 3 Sided Electric Fire - Endeavour Fires

Knighton 51'' Electric Fireplace (fireplaceshops.com)

Ezee Glow 60'' Celestial Built-In Electric Fire — GR8 Fires

Any input appreciated!

I used a mirrorstone white 1800 watt wall heater, from amazon, and fitted a switchable timer

I would definitely recommend going to see one in person in a shop/supplier first.
We have just bought a Solution Lux150 and looked at a few different ones in the stores and the flame effect and logs differs a lot between them - some looked pretty crap.
