Modern Flames Buying Guide: Which Series Is Right for You?

Last reviewed: July 30, 2026

A closer look at the Modern Flames lineup for anyone who has decided on the brand but isn't sure which series fits their project.

Why buyers land on Modern Flames

Modern Flames is one of the brands we recommend most often for media walls, built-in features, and fireplace inserts, as covered in Best Electric Fireplace Brands. Where the brand can get confusing is inside its own lineup — Modern Flames has several distinct series built for different projects.

Landscape Pro Series

The Landscape Pro series, including the Multi and Slim configurations, is built for wide media walls and built-in features. The Multi Series supports 3-sided viewing for open-concept rooms, while the Slim Series is designed for shallower wall depths.

Good fit if: you're building a long feature wall or media wall and want a wide range of sizes.

Orion Series

The Orion Multi Series is Modern Flames' larger-format, app-connected line, well suited to a true architectural centerpiece rather than a simple room upgrade. If flame realism and smart controls are the priority, this is the series to compare first.

Good fit if: you want the most premium, feature-rich option in the Modern Flames catalog.

Spectrum Slimline Series

The Spectrum Slimline is a shallower, more budget-conscious option in the Modern Flames catalog, useful for bedrooms or secondary rooms where a full Landscape Pro installation isn't necessary. It can also be paired with the Allwood Wall System for a finished, furniture-like presentation without full built-in construction.

Good fit if: you want the Modern Flames look in a smaller room or with less construction.

Redstone Built-In Series

The Redstone series is Modern Flames' insert-style option, designed to replace an existing fireplace opening. If you're converting an old wood or gas fireplace, start here rather than with the Landscape Pro or Orion lines. Compare with our Electric Fireplace Inserts collection.

Good fit if: you have an existing fireplace opening you want to convert to electric.

Common mistakes

The first mistake is comparing Landscape Pro sizing against an insert opening — they solve different problems. The second is choosing Orion for a simple secondary-room upgrade, where a Spectrum Slimline or another brand entirely may be a better fit for the budget.

Frequently asked questions

Which Modern Flames series is best for a media wall?

Landscape Pro Multi or Slim, depending on available wall depth, are the strongest starting points for a media wall project.

Which Modern Flames series replaces an existing fireplace?

The Redstone Built-In Series is designed as an insert-style replacement for an existing fireplace opening.

Is Orion worth the extra cost over Landscape Pro?

If flame realism, app control, and a true architectural centerpiece matter most, Orion is worth comparing. For a straightforward wide feature wall, Landscape Pro is usually the more practical choice.
