Description

The Malvern is one of our most versatile freestanding bioethanol fireplace stoves. With its clean lines, classic shape, and matte black finish, it effortlessly fits into any space and looks great no matter how you style it.

The front-facing Stay Clear tempered glass panel gives you an uninterrupted view of the flames and mimics that classic fireside feeling. It brings balance and warmth to any space, and works just as well in city flats as it does in large countryside retreats. Tuck it away into your fireplace alcove, or let it stand proud in your open-plan living space.

For the perfect finishing touches, pair the Malvern with our ceramic logs or pebbles, or add one of our false flues to complete that classic woodburner look. Don't forget to stock up on our bioethanol fuel for a clean and efficient burn every time.

Please note: Our ceramic logs and pebbles should never be placed over the slot of the fuel box, but rather around this opening.

Your burning questions, answered

Do bioethanol fireplaces produce real heat?

Yes. Bioethanol fireplaces produce up to 3kW of heat, which is similar to an electric heater on a medium setting. This makes them an excellent supplementary heat source for a small to medium-sized room. They’re not designed to be a replacement for your central heating, but they will help heat your room on a cool evening – without the smoke, mess or cost of a traditional fire.
Are bioethanol fireplaces safe to use indoors?

Yes, bioethanol fireplaces are completely safe to use indoors as long as you follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Our fireplaces are independently tested to BS EN 16647 and feature a patented ‘no-spill’ fuel box (GB2555760) to prevent spills even when knocked. Make sure you use it in a properly ventilated room and treat it with the same care as you would any other open flame.
Do bioethanol fireplaces smell?

Bioethanol fuel doesn’t release any smoke, so there’s no telltale smoky smell left in the room after lighting – unlike with traditional woodburners. You may notice a faint scent upon lighting your stove, but this quickly fades into the background once the fire is burning steadily. Choose our low-odour fuel to keep your home smelling fresh.
Do bioethanol fireplaces look like real fires?

Yes. Our bioethanol fireplaces produce real flickering flames, not an LED effect. They give you the same atmosphere of a real fire, without needing a chimney or flue. And because bioethanol burns cleanly, there’s no smoke or soot to worry about, unlike with a traditional fireplace.

Why more and more people are switching to bioethanol

Traditional fireplaces often cause more hassle than they’re worth. They can be expensive to install and run, and then there’s the smoke and ongoing maintenance to deal with. Bioethanol fires give you real flickering flames without any of the drawbacks. See how bioethanol compares to a traditional woodburner, gas fire, and electric fire below.
