The Evolution of Dimplex Ignite Series

The technology of all devices gets better and better with each passing year. New Android or Apple phones are introduced regularly with new features and better, more advanced tech. Luckily the phone in your pocket isn’t outdated that easily. Even a phone you’ve had for a few years is still technologically relevant—it just doesn’t have the latest bells and whistles.

The same goes for electric fireplaces. With each new product hitting the market, you’ll see new features and sometimes even new developments in the technology. But last year’s model is still a head turner. There’s really no going wrong with the electric fireplaces on the market today. It’s more of a choice between good, better, and best.

Let’s take a look at three of Dimplex’s finest from the Ignite series.
