Indeed, each to their own :-)
But my real life experience:
Radiator covers - house cold.
Removed radiator covers - house warm
I'm not overly interested in the 'science' that heating engineers quote but I am interested in how easily my house gets warm.

They look great but ultimately cost you more money to heat your house. /boring, sensible post/

Do you know how heating works? If you get a good radiator cover it will make your room hotter because it increases air flow

Where on earth do you think the heat goes?! Is the radiator cover some sort of black hole.
No of course not, the radiator cover simply acts as a temporary holder of heat. Any heat it absorbs will still be released into the room, just at a slower rate. So it may make the room heat up slightly slower, but will not STOP heat.

I have a friend who is a Gas Safe Regd plumber (installs CH for a living) who swears blind that keeping your heating on low 24/7 will 'save you money'.
