Best For / Not For
Best for
- Rooms with limited wall space where 60 inches would be too wide
- Bedrooms and smaller living rooms where proportional fireplace sizing matters
- Buyers who want the full Touchstone Sideline feature set in a smaller footprint
Not for
- Large rooms and open-plan spaces where 50 inches looks small -- choose the 60-inch or R.W.FLAME 68
- Buyers focused on visual impact -- larger is always more dramatic
Key Details
Sizing Your Electric Fireplace
A general rule for wall-mounted fireplaces: the fireplace width should be 2/3 to 3/4 of the available wall width. On a 7-foot wall (84 inches), a 60-inch fireplace (71% of wall width) is proportionally correct. On a 5-foot wall (60 inches), a 50-inch fireplace fills 83% -- the upper range of proportional fit. Oversizing creates a cramped look; undersizing makes the fireplace look like an afterthought. Measure your wall and available space before choosing between the 50 and 60-inch models.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Bottom Line
Consider the Touchstone Sideline 50-Inch if your wall space genuinely requires a 50-inch unit. If your wall can accommodate 60 inches, choose the 60-inch version for better visual proportions at the same price.
