M.C.Haus Ultra-Thin Electric Fireplace (Black, 102cm/40 Inch)

Ultra-thin Electric Fireplace

The M.C.Haus Ultra-Thin Electric Fireplace measures just 10.4cm deep, so it sits close to the wall without taking up floor space. It works as a recessed, wall-hung or free-standing unit, giving you flexibility over where it goes in your home. The 102cm width suits living rooms, bedrooms or hotel lobbies.

Flame customisation is a strong point here. Choose from 12 flame colours plus a breath colour mode that shifts hue and brightness on its own. Five brightness levels let you set the mood, whether that's a subtle glow or a bright display.

Heat comes from two settings: 900W or 1800W, controlled via touch screen or remote. A built-in thermostat holds room temperature between 17°C and 28°C. Noise stays below 40dB, so it won't disturb quiet evenings. Overheat protection and ETL certification add peace of mind.

Product Features

Ultra-thin profile - At only 10.4cm deep, this fireplace fits flush against walls without protruding into the room. This matters for smaller living spaces where every centimetre counts. It also allows for cleaner recessed installations into media walls or existing fireplace surrounds. 12 flame colours plus breath mode - You get a full range of flame colours to match room decor or mood, from classic orange to blue or purple tones. The breath colour setting automatically cycles colour and brightness, creating a dynamic, ever-changing display without any manual input. Dual heating modes - Switch between 900W and 1800W depending on how much warmth the room needs. This gives control over energy use since you're not always running the unit at full power. The 1800W setting covers rooms up to 37 square metres.

Touch screen and remote control - Adjust flame colour, brightness, heat and timer settings from the unit itself or from the sofa using the remote. This is useful for daily adjustments without getting up, particularly helpful once installed at height or recessed into a wall. Timer function - Set the fireplace to run anywhere from 1 to 8 hours. This means you can leave it running while you fall asleep or head out, knowing it will switch off on schedule rather than staying on indefinitely. Flexible installation - Fit it recessed into a wall, mount it flush against a wall, or stand it freely on the floor. This adaptability means the same unit works whether you're renovating a media wall or simply want a freestanding feature in a rented flat.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

How deep is the M.C.Haus Ultra-Thin Electric Fireplace?

The unit is 10.4cm deep, 102cm wide and 43cm high. This ultra-thin depth is the main selling point compared to older electric fireplace models, which tend to sit much further out from the wall. At 14.5kg, it's light enough for most people to handle during installation with a second person.

Can this fireplace be installed without recessing it into a wall?

Yes. It supports three installation types: recessed into a wall, wall-hung on the surface, or free standing on the floor. Note that only the 30 inch version comes with feet for free-standing use and feet are sold separately for other sizes if you want that option.

How much heat does it produce?

It has two heat settings: 900W and 1800W, plus a flame-only mode with no heat. The 1800W setting can cover up to 37 square metres, making it suitable as supplemental heating for a decent-sized living room rather than a whole-house heating solution.

How many flame colours are available?

There are 12 flame colours to choose from, plus a breath colour setting that automatically changes both colour and brightness over time. You also get five brightness levels so you can dim or brighten the flame effect to suit the room.

Is the fireplace noisy when running?

No. Noise output stays below 40 decibels, which is quieter than most conversation. Several customer reviews specifically mention it being quiet, though it does use a fan to distribute heat so you will hear some low fan noise when the heater is active.

Does it come with a remote control?

Yes. Both a touch screen on the unit and a remote control are included. You can adjust flame colour, brightness, heat setting and the timer from either. The timer can be set anywhere from 1 to 8 hours.

What safety features does it have?

The fireplace carries ETL certification and includes a safety cut-off device that activates if the unit overheats. Some reviews note the heat cuts off after around 20 minutes as a safety measure before resuming, which is expected behaviour rather than a fault.

Does it come with logs or crystals?

Yes, both a log set and crystal stones are included with the unit. You can swap between the two depending on which look you prefer and both are designed to sit within the flame display area for a realistic effect.
