What we like: Voice-activation features

What we don’t like: Low shelf weight capacity

This electric fireplace with bookshelves on each side offers an unusual configuration that maintains a sleek aesthetic by having the bookcases installed behind the fireplace jamb.

The mantel can only hold 50 lbs. so you can’t use this piece as a TV stand unless you wall-mount your TV set.

Buying Guide

Electric fireplaces are fast replacing conventional ones. And why not. An electric fireplace adds the missing warmth and glow to your living room, at a fraction of the operating and maintenance cost of a real fireplace.

There’s no smoke, no ash, no soot to bother about. No gas, no fumes either. All you see is the soothing glow of an LED light that mimics a real flame. To make it even better, it warms your room as well. You can even add it to an existing real fireplace. It resembles a burning log and emits a continual warm glow.

If you are considering adding one of these amazing fixtures to your living room, then why not pair it with a wonderful bookshelf? A fireplace mantle bookshelf is a great focal point. The shelving gives you the perfect platform to flaunt your tchotchkes and accent pieces. And of course, your books.

Here are a few important things to consider when you go shopping for one of these.

One of the advantages of an electric fireplace is that you can retrofit it into the room without making expensive remodeling. There are both freestanding as well as wall-mounted varieties.

The freestanding ones are a breeze to install. You can just place it flush against the wall and plug it into the nearest electrical outlet. The caveat is that you wouldn’t be able to move it once you install the bookshelf around it. So, narrow down on a location before you make that installation.

Many electric fireplaces have an integrated top shelf that can be used as a TV stand. Always check the maximum weight bearing capacity before you place your TV on it.

Measure the dimensions of the space that surround the fireplace. Locate your wall studs using a stud finder if you plan to wall mount the book shelf. Now it’s time to narrow down on a design and there are tons of options to select from.

Standard bookshelves feature fixed or adjustable shelves with a closed frame on the back. Or it can be an array of floating shelves mounted on the wall.

Shelves made of solid wood or MDF are durable and will blend in with your existing décor. If you wish to create a more contemporary design, then you can opt for an étagère which has glass shelves instead.

By the way, if you get bored with your furniture layout very often, you can buy a freestanding bookshelf on wheels, just like the fireplace. Just move it to a different room or a different wall once it starts looking like an eyesore.

Electric fireplaces are available both with or without heating elements. The latter is purely an aesthetic addition. The one that heats the room uses either an infrared quartz heat element or a forced fan to blow heat.

  • Infrared quartz is the more efficient of the two and are suited for large rooms that are up to 1000 square feet.
  • Forced fan models work best for rooms that are up to 400 square feet at best.
