Our biofireplace in a beautiful shop McGlashans, partners of Flamant

 

Bio fireplace in Maglashan Interiors on Crawford Street 


One of our fireplaces is a part of the set up in a stunning furniture and design shop McGlashans Interiors. The shop is located not far from our showroom, on Crawford Street and seduces the passers-by with the ever-eye-catching display in their window, so generous that it literally pours out on the street...

The shop is at 108 Crawford Street and features our fireplace Roma I, which was given to the shop owner by a customer relocating to another country. It is a stunning free-standing fireplace, and the unit in the shop is our older version, using gel cans to run. We have since then upgraded Roma to the second version - as it is one of our most popular bio fireplaces, it brings together the classy clean and contemporary look and the traditional vibe of 'proper' fireplaces.


McGlashans Interiors is a must-see show for interior designers and decorators keen of combining the natural shaopes and forms with soft and woody aura. They are the main London partners of Flamant, the renowned Belgian furniture and home accessories company www.flamant.com


Both, their shop arrangement and their room sets are sensational and just by walking along the aisles of the cosy yet spacious shop you can get a good dose of inspiration and warmth.

Bio fire burner - customer review

A while back we were really surprised by one of our customers, Michael, who sent us a video review of a burner he purchased from us. He has bought our table top bio burner Cube II and created an ethusiastic video review!

Michael normally reviews electronic equipment but when he bought his Cube (on a very good sale price - lucky!) he liked it so much that he spend his time and energy sharing his thought with others!

We were delighted to see it and hear his positive comments and thoughts, we have then rewarded him with another burner and got another brilliant review! The second table top burner, Bow, showed beautifully on photographs as well, and Michael was very happy with the product.

Many of our customers wonder:

- are bio fires as good as they say?
- how easy is it to set up a table bio fire?
- how to fill it up and light table top burner?
- how is a glass bio fire packed?

Michael Thornber provides some answers to those and many more questions. The value of the unbiased, private and spontaneously shared opinion of a neutral customer, buying a product online as everybody else is huge!! We are very pleased.

Have a look for yourself:
