TURBRO Suburbs TS17: Stylish Compact Electric Fireplace for Cozy Spaces

Mo Lacourse: When I first unboxed this item, I was skeptical. I wanted this heater for a 12 foot by 14 foot room. It was to replace a space heater I had used for years that was twice its size. I plugged it in and was surprised at how quickly it heated up the room. Yes, it is very compact and will only heat up smaller rooms, but this heater dies it well. The imitation fireplace look is pleasant and relaxing to look at. Very pleased!

Jennifer Arfsten: I first bought this heater in 2020 and totally forgot to write a review. I have a small 2 bedroom apartment (less than 1,000 sq ft) and I live at 3,700 elevation in the alpine town of Mount Shasta, ca. Winters here can be bitterly cold! I have propane heat and that's wayyyy too expensive to depend on. I was going through a new space heater every winter and wanted something that would actually last more than one season. After reading dozens of reviews for different heaters similar to this one, I ordered this.
I first heat my home to 80 with the central heat, turn that off and then kick this one on. Surprisingly it maintained the heat for my entire apartment! Always reliable and it didn't run up my electric bill more than $25 more per month. I typically ran it for 13+ hours per day. It lasted for about three seasons until the fireplace light stuck and wouldn't turn off and I'm paranoid about fire since having a house fire years ago so I decided it's best to just replace it. It's also visually soothing! I'd definitely recommend this for really good evenly distributed heat.
My son also bought one after seeing mine and loves it!

Debi Jenderseck: It is much smaller than I expected but it does work very good. It just doesn’t heat up the room that I needed because the room is a little bit too big for it I think but it does work good and looks nice.

MarianeMariane: The media could not be loaded.  Calienta bien una recámara pequeña. La luz que emite es bonita. Llevamos más de un año con ella y ha funcionado sin problema. Nos gusta y la recomendamos.

NORA GRANJA: Calienta bastante rápido una habitación de 9m2, el efecto de flama se ve bastante agradable y aunque es un poco más pequeña de lo que esperaba, funciona bastante bien. El recibo de la luz no se incremento demasiado en la temporada en que la utilicé, aunque se botó la pastilla al tenerla prendida junto con la lavadora, el microondas y otros electrodomésticos pequeños, dejando entrever qué si tiene un consumo bastante alto de energía. Muy buen producto, quedé satisfecha.

Ana A.: Es la segunda que compro. Buen calor, sin ser intenso. Esta se tardó un poco en llegar.

Marc G. Belisle: Fireplace arrived damaged, but repairable.

Fake fireplace/heater simply poorly packed. Half the top of the shipping box says in large caps to save all packing material in case of breakage. Hmmm… how often does breakage occur to necessitate such a large, prominent, very visible warning? Apparently fairly often/often enough.

Well, yes, there was some breakage. Luckily it wasn’t nearly as bad as it could have been.

The plate glass on the very front of the fireplace had come out of its restraints and slipped down within the front door – quite fortunately, it hadn’t shattered! (It was chipped in various places around the edges [which left potentially dangerous little slivers of glass all over the place, but that’s another story…]).

There are four plastic mounts, one for each restraining clamp. An upper mount had broken, in turn allowing the front plate glass to slip down. There must have been a fair amount of torsion for that plastic mount to snap off. Fortunately, the plastic mount could be super-glued back in place (mostly). Attaching the clamp then provided just enough ginger support to help hold the front plate glass in place.

Pamela MacDonald: There is no remote control but I am not bothered by it. The piece is compact, quite pleasant to look at, and it heats up quite a large area quickly. The volume is also low. Very satisfied. Highly recommend.

Raine: Perfect size for my space, but not on a thermostat , so it doesn’t shut off by itself, and no remote, flame is good and heats the area really well
