Review: Nice little stove - This is the second Dimplex electric stove I have bought. The microstove is not as powerful as my larger stove but I bought this size because it fits in in my smallish home. It is easy to move from room to room and I have been impressed with how much heat it throws out for a small stove. It is early days, as Winter has yet to arrive, but overall I am pleased with my purchase. It was good value for money. Easy to set up. Is a nice booster to central heating or just to take the chill off a room. It is an attractive, small fire. There is a degree of noise but I don't have a problem with that. I like having these heaters as back-up in case my central heating fails.
Review: Lovely stove - Excellent purchase. Fits my space perfectly. Lovely flame effect and sends out good heat if needed. It’s attractive to look. Arrived next day. Would recommend

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this fire very noisy when working ? I already have a Dimplex similar to this and the fan is extremely noisy, worse when using just the light.**
A: It is similar to any fan heater - you know it is on but it is not bothersome - and most noises annoy me fairly easily

**Q: What country is the product made in?**
A: Hello the MCFSTV12E micro stove is produced in the Peoples Republic of China

**Q: Would it be safe to fit stove into a backless fire surround? There would be 9cm clearance each side and 25cm gap from top of stove to mantelpiece.**
A: Yes I thik it will be safe as this is not a gas fire but electric and the warm air comes out in the front of the fire at bottom.

I have mine against a cabinet and it is perfectly o.k.

**Q: Can you plug this into an extension lead?**
A: Yes, standard 13 amp plug so would work fine plugged into an extension cable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little stove

It is easy to move from room to room and I have been impressed with how much heat it throws out for a small stove.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely stove
*by J***E on 27 October 2025*

Excellent purchase. Fits my space perfectly. Lovely flame effect and sends out good heat if needed. It’s attractive to look. Arrived next day. Would recommend

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s a lovely little fire……but don’t expect a remote control, or reliable information!
*by M***B on 13 April 2026*

Title says it all really. It is a really nice looking small electric stove type fire, and fits perfectly in the recess left when boxing in the recess from an old gas fire, so in terms of size, it was exactly what I was looking for. The flame effect is really nice, and gives a realistic warm glow (see video). The fan heater works effectively for a small 1.2 kw heater, although is a little noisy, and you might have to crank up the volume on the tele if used in the same room, but to be fair, it’s rare to find a really quiet fan heater, and I didn’t buy it for the heating requirement, so won’t be an issue for me. On the negative side, as others have also mentioned, it DOES NOT come with a remote control, despite been listed in the ‘what’s in the box’ section. When I queried this, I was informed that because I bought mine on Amazon resale, they couldn’t offer a ‘replacement’, but in Amazon’s defence, did offer a partial refund of £16.27 to purchase one, and this is where it all got really complicated. Despite searching everywhere online, asking the question in numerous ways, I couldn’t find out whether a remote will work with this or not?!, or which remote I actually needed, even on the Dimplex web site. It was the same issue with trying to find out where the manual controls are, I simply couldn’t get a definitive answer. Some said on the front, some said on the side, and even the chat box on Amazon described the controls being ‘touch’controls on the front…….but just to be clear for anyone considering this fire as an option, the controls (which are traditional rocker type switches, one for the light/flame effect which can be used independently, and 2 further switches for the fan heater, high and low, which can only be used when the flame effect is switched on) are on the BACK of the fire, on the top right hand side as you look at the fire. This might be an issue if getting access to the switches might be tricky once the fire is positioned in a recess, for example, and need a remote control to operate it……if you can find one! Despite the above comments, I went for this model from Dimplex as a trusted and established brand, and it was the size I needed, and I’m pleased with the unit at the price I paid on the resale section, but wouldn’t want to pay much more……especially without a remote control!
