 Flame Effects – Garibaldi 35 Inch Curved Fireplace

The fire effects of the Garibaldi 35” Curved Fireplace include realistic burning logs and flickering flames. This fireplace is going for realism, there are no fancy colors or special effects, just a nice soothing real looking flame

There are, however,  a number of adjustment levels for the brightness of the flames and the fire effect can be operated without the need for the heater to be turned on. The glowing embers and flames are powered by long life LED’s that do not require replacing.

The front is made from tempered glass and this will not be a danger to children or pets as it will never get hot. The flame effects are silent in their operation, and changing the color of the flames is not possible as there is only one color which is yellow. Overall the flame effects and burning embers look very realistic even close up.

Heater Function Garibaldi Electric Fireplace Heater

The fireplace has a forced air heater and the heat is dispersed from the top of the unit. There are variable heat settings that can be controlled from the remote control or the buttons on the top right of the fireplace.

The heater is almost silent in operation and there is just a faint fan noise if you really get close up to the fireplace. It is an electric powered heater which means that it is eco friendly and there are no dangerous fumes. The heat output is 5000 BTU’s at 1500 Watts and the heater will make up to a 400 square foot room very comfortable. This is standard for almost all electric fireplaces.

I believe it is very important that everyone purchasing an electric fireplace heater be aware of the limitations of these units. With very rare exceptions and this electric fireplace heater is no exception, an electric fireplace heater is best thought of as a supplemental heat source. It can be part of a comprehensive zone heating plan.

Quite simply they will not heat your whole house. This is not a downfall of any particular fireplace heater. The limitation is a function of how much power and electricity can be pulled through a standard household circuit and outlet safely. It is true for almost all electric fireplace heater components.

Controls Garibaldi Wall Mount Fireplace

The fireplace comes with a full set of manual controls which are located at the top right of the fireplace. It also comes with a handy, full function and an infrared remote control.

There is an on / off button, a timer which can be set in 30 minute increments from half an hour up to seven and a half hours. The heater button will allow you to control the amount of heat and the flame brightness button enables the flames to be made brighter or dimmed.

The same controls are available on the fireplace and the remote control. The remote will require 2 AAA batteries which are not supplied. AARghhh…that is a pet peeve of ours.

There were very few negative comments about this fireplace. The negative comments below about this fireplace are summaries from real customer reviews:

• “No batteries included for the remote”
• “Finding a place to hang the fireplace can be difficult with the power cord”
• “The unit was heavy which made installation a little difficult”

These days most products are being shipped with batteries and a couple of customers commented on their disappointment that these were not supplied. This is considered as a minor problem, but we empathize, it is our pet peeve also.

One customer felt that it was a little difficult to find the right place to hang the fireplace because a power socket was required. Being an electric fireplace it requires this, and it is not seen as a significant problem.

You can use paint-able power cord covers to hide the dangling cord, which we recommend.

One or two customers commented that the heaviness of the fireplace made the mounting on the wall bracket difficult. Most wall mounting operations are easier with 2 people. The majority of customers commented on how easy the installation was with the included bracket and mounting hardware.

Installation is actually no harder than hanging a heavy picture. This not seen as a major issue.
