Inset vs wall-hung
Media wall electric fires are offered in two primary styles: wall-mounted and inset. Inset models, such as the Vision Futura 1500 or the Evonic Halo 1500 XT, are built into the wall and provide a flush finish, seamlessly blending in with the walls surrounding it for a sleek appearance. However, inset electric fires require an opening that is already in place and can be a bit more expensive than their free-standing counterparts.
The best media wall electric fires are wall-hung, including the Hall & Elgin Pryzm Arteon 3SL. They are simple to install and don't require an opening in the wall because they're not recessed into it. There are models that come with various finishes and trims that can be customized to fit your style. Wall-mounted models are still able to protrude from the wall and not be suitable for all rooms. They also can hinder the flow of air in smaller rooms, as they'll likely radiate heat upwards rather than across the room.

The majority of modern electric fireplaces for media walls are mounted to the wall and are either freestanding or inset based on the design you choose. Inset fires are designed to be inserted partially in a fireplace opening. This makes them simpler to install, and they are more aesthetically pleasing in your living space. Freestanding fires such as the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are great for those without a fireplace recess and can be moved between rooms to make it more flexible.
No matter what method of installation you decide to use, always put the fire in proximity to the power outlet to ensure you can plug in the device and test it before installing. According to the guidelines, you'll need to keep the fire away from flammable materials.
