Before the trolls start trolling ...
Yes it is another heater
No it is not any more or less economical to run than your 2kW fan heater - 2kW of energy goes in, 2kW of heat comes out.
Yes a gas boiler / radiators is cheaper to run - not if it has broken down and you need some emergency heat.
Yes you can use a heat pump system to get up to 5kW of heat out of 1kW of electricity but they aren't £12 ....
2265 units in stock at time of posting. Free delivery for any orders over £5 at CPC. Good for keeping as an emergency in case your main heating breaks down.

I'm sure the trolls will think of something dumb and just plain wrong to say.

I use a similar heater to keep my man cave warm in the winter. If the rest of the family are not in for the day then I don't need to turn on the central heating so these are perfectly adequate for just keeping a small single room comfortable in the winter.

Also handy if you want to run one for 10 minutes instead of the boiler heating up the pipes and rad only to have not made the room warmer until you leave and the heat is still mostly in the rad.

these are great for camping (if you have electric hookup.... obviously!) we were using one in our awning in September and it did a great job in the cold evenings

Better in my opinion to purchase one with a built in timer. Then you can make the most of your heat/cost ratio. Think about it........

CPC also offer a fan assisted turbo version with cold air option AND a 24 hour timer. It is listed in my copy of the CPC winter sale catalogue as HG0091703 @ £16.20 + VAT = £19.44. Ensure you use this code ending WITH 03, because the main catalogue listing is HG00917 for which the same product is priced @ £19.51 + VAT = £23.41 ! So is it worth up to double the price of the basic version ?

Spent an hour yesterday cleaning an old heater to use in my man cave and £6 for wall mounting brackets. Great deal but too late in my case.

just blast a load up her, that'll soon provide it with some central heating.

Trust me get a timed one. The way they rip you off you could accidentally leave one on in a room and you've used £5 in a day. I know to my cost. Ahaa
