If you’re having difficulty deciding between an eStudio and an eReflex electric fire, we’re here to help! Read on to discover the differences between these ranges.
If you’ve landed on this blog post because you can’t decide between a Gazco eReflex electric fire and an eStudio electric fire, we don’t blame you. Both of these stunning electric fires offer up to 2kW of programmable heating, are available with Programmable Thermostatic Eco Remote Control, and are capable of delivering bucketloads of ambience at the press of a button. But there are a few key differences in the details which this blog post aims to cover.
First off, all models in the eStudio and eReflex electric fire ranges feature stunning flame visuals that are powered by Gazco’s state-of-the-art Chromalight LED technology. This unique technology allows for multiple flame settings to choose from as well as bathes the realistic fuel effect from below. While the eReflex electric fires offers a choice of Amber, Blue or Amber with Blue Accent flame settings, the eStudio offers Amber and Yellow, Amber with Yellow accent, or Yellow with Amber accent.
What’s more, both models in both ranges offer a choice of fuel effects. While the eReflex is available with a choice of Logs, Grey & Clear Pebbles and Crystal Ice-effect, eStudio electric fires are available with its own unique logs as standard with the option of Silver Birch log-effect also available. Whichever you choose, both eStudio log-effect options have been designed with sections that glow just like real burning logs.
All models come with Gazco’s Programmable Thermostatic Eco Remote Control as standard, which provide a host of settings right at your fingertips including your desired room temperature as well as fuel bed colour and flame display options.
For added ambience, the eStudio has a trick up its sleeve. The option to upgrade this electric fire with the optional LED Mood Lighting System is a bonus for when you want to maximise the fires ambience. This easy-to-install kit consists of a three-metre strip which connects via a cable to the fire during installation. Popular installation scenarios include backlighting behind a TV for added definition, as well as downlighting on shelves to cast a cool hue over ornaments.
The eReflex Inset electric fires are perfect for feature walls and media walls, as too are the eStudio electric fires. The latter even has a slightly narrower depth which allows for even greater installation possibilities. The reduced depth required is great for media walls, as it means the studwork frame doesn’t need to be built so far out into the room.
If you’re looking for something a little different however, the eReflex is also available as a multi-sided outset electric fire such as the eReflex 110W electric fire, as well as a wall mountable Trento Suite.
The former makes for a fantastic designer centrepiece with stunning panoramic flame views, whether opting for a 2-sided or 3-sided model.
Opting for a Trento Suite model offers a super convenient wall hung installation that’s designed to deliver a pleasing floating shelf aesthetic. These trendy fires are perfect for when a little added ambience is needed without a studwork frame or hearth.

If you want to buy an extra set of faux logs , how much and where to go ?
Hello Norna, thanks for your comment. You can order additional fuel effect sets for most models either via our online spares website, or alternatively these can also be purchased through your retailer. Hope this helps.
Best wishes, Chris
Hi there …can you control the speed of the flame on both models ?
Hi James, thanks for your comment. Flame speed control isn’t offered by Gazco on the eStudio or eReflex, only Avanti models by our premium brand Onyx offer this. You can find out more about the Onyx Avanti electric fire range on the Onyx website here.
Thanks, Chris
Do you have fitters that take out existing fire places with gas fire , cap off and replace with one of you gazco electric fires
Hi Chris, thanks for your message. We don’t work with fitters directly being a manufacturer, but our retailers often work with installers to offer this level of service. You can find your nearest Gazco retailer here.
Best wishes, Chris
Hi Chris
Do any of your media wall fires eStudio, eReflex and Onyx have the ability to adjust the flame height?
Based on price would they be in the same order as above eStudio being the cheapest?
Is there a video showing all 3 fires and what you can do with the remote?
Are there any video/plans for building a media wall?
Hi Mart, thanks for your comment. Unfortunately none of our electric fires offer flame height adjustment currently, however the Onyx Avanti does offer the ability to adjust the flame speed which the others do not. You’re correct, the eStudio is the cheapest of the three, and the Onyx Avanti is the premium range.
There isn’t a video but the remote is the same for all three and they all allow you to set timers and schedules for heating, adjust flame and built in lighting effects as well as any additional mood lighting kits connected. I’d always recommend going to visit a showroom to see them all in person before making a decision as you can play around with them all to get a feel for which you prefer the look of.
Best wishes, Chris
