With its cylindrical design, glass door and sides, and a ventilation grill, this model is perfect for enjoying the comfort of a real flame and full warmth. No chimney, venting, or cleaning is required.
The KENSINGTON XL Bioethanol Stove is a substantial sized product with a very impressive large real flame thanks to maximum ventilation and a larger bio ethanol container.
This cylindrical design fireplace comes in a sleek black powder coated finish.
It features a glass door and rounded side glass with a top ventilation grill that directs heat to the front, allowing you to fully enjoy the warmth. The glass surround means you can admire the dancing flames from various angles of the room. This bioethanol stove provides the ambiance of a real fire without the hassle of smoke or ashes
Without doubt it is an alternative to log burners or electric wood-burning effect stoves. It doesn't produce any smoke, therefore you won't need a chimney or a flue.
Also, it doesn't need electricity, installation or maintenance.
Moreover, you can position the Kensington Stove anywhere in your room against a flat wall as a freestanding unit and you can use it with or without the pipe.
Position the stove with a minimum clearance of 3cm away from walls and one metre away from highly flammable materials (e.g. curtains, sofas, etc.), which is more than enough for safety concerns.
However, please be aware, depending on the type of wall paint you have used, since this stove produces around 2–3 kW of heat, in the long run it may cause some discolouration to the wall, therefore we suggest using a heat-resistant paint or protective wall finish.
The fireplace comes with our high grade adjustable stainless-steel Container Small (1.3L) bioethanol fuel burner
also with special Fragrance Diffusers on the lid, making it compatible with our Aura Fragrance Oils. By sliding the lid across slightly, you can easily regulate the flame size, the heat output (2-3 kW) and the burning time (3-6 h).
To create an authentic feel, the fireplace has decorative log storage below and a faux pipe (sold separately)
Do not put ceramic accessories across the flame as this will lead to carbon smells.
Included:
High grade steel body in powder coated finish
Glass door and sides
Burner holder
Double-layer stainless steel Container Small (1.3 L) burner
Engraved sliding lid with Fragrance Diffusers
Control / extinguishing tool

Super stylish product that has transformed our kitchen/family room. So easy and so clean compared to our wood burner in the lounge. We bought it for ambient aesthetic purposes but are pleasantly surprised with the heat output too.

The Place to go for Sound, Professional Advice.
We met Michael at our appointment in the Kensington Showroom. He explained all the different types of fire available and proposed several options for us to choose from, and demonstrated them. He was also able to give advice on their correct fitting and installation.
The fires come with accessories which he also advised on, showed us examples and explained exactly what they were for and how to use them.
At the end of our appointment there was no pressure to purchase anything. However, we left completely confident of our options and choices and placed an online order shortly after.
If you are thinking about a Bio Fire, we highly recommend you speak with Michael first and get some sound advice.
I’ve now tried a few bioethanol products out there and I would say this one is the best I’ve seen - it burns well and with less odour than the competitors we’ve tried.
This is my 2nd purchase from Bio Fires as we just sold our house and the purchasers wanted everything included!
A great opportunity to buy again and this time I needed a large grate for my blocked fireplace in the living room and also and something to give extra warmth outside for our terrace. As you can see from the pictures, they look absolutely fabulous so I'm very happy indeed! Thanks again for your excellent customer service. Just to let you know, I have been recommending you for ages to all of my friends!! Will add few more accessories!
I ordered the White Cube tabletop fireplace after finding it whilst searching onlineandafter reading previous previews. It arrived within 3 days as advised by the seller and it was well packed to withstand the carrier system. Once assembled, it looks a very nice fireplace. I went with the white unit, purely for my own taste in colour, and it does look stunning. Well made and sturdy. I went for this unit as I can use it indoors or outdoors as required. Obviously, as it is on sale it makes this unit good value for money.

It’s arrived well packaged and looks very smart BUT…..
It’s arrived well packaged and looks very smart. When lit it is lovely.
My main issue is that it says burn time of 60 to 90:mins. On both burns I have had 30 mins with filling the receptacle 90 percent full as per instructions. So quite disappointing from a burn time perspective.
Thank you for your review.
We’re really pleased to hear that you’re happy with the appearance and that it looks lovely when lit.
Regarding the burn time, we do state an approximate burn time of around 60 minutes in our technical information. However, this can vary depending on factors such as airflow and drafts in the room, which can cause the fuel to burn more quickly.
