With 2000 W of power this heater can warm up a room in no time, all you have to do is plug it in and get comfortable. The radiator style heater can sit up against a wall without adding any clutter.
This is only available for C&C, stock is limited, but there are local stores to myself that have stock, so have a nosy.

Depends what you're looking for really. Obviously the oil filled radiators take a while to heat up but once they're warmed up they'll switch themselves off and radiate heat for a while. These will warm up quickly, and will switch off for a short while but they lose heat rapidly so will be quickly back on. Depends on how much you use the room you'll be using them in.

Ah thanks for help, have on constant and looking to save electricity so looks like oil filled is right for me.
Though did have one of these convector heaters, was lovely the amount of heat and how fast it heated the room. If only electric was cheaper.
Thanks for your help :smiley:.

That's the great thing about those sort of heaters, instant heat but it quickly dissipates, I'd only use it to quickly warm up a room that either don't intend to be in for long or use it to warm a room quickly before getting into bed. It's also worth looking into loft insulation if you're finding you're losing heat too quickly.
Good luck on the oil heater front, now would be the time to buy second hand if you have a look around you might spot something.

Just a word of warning.... please do not purchase one of these, or any other similar convector type electrical heater, if you are planning to have it on high heat for more than a few hours a day, or if you are plugging it into an extension lead.
In either of the above scenarios, an oil filled radiator is more suitable.
Also bear in mind that these do not normally have a topple failsafe switch... If they fall over, they can potentially cause a fire.

Not sure what you mean by that. The only possible difference it could make with an extension lead is the power it consumes, so if that's what you're worried about then your advice should be based on the power, not the type of heater. Besides which, if an extension lead is going to overheat it will not take hours to do so.

All electric heaters provide exactly the same amount of heat per unit of electricity.
An extension lead will make no difference to the heat produced or the cost, but it needs to be rated at 10 amps or more for this heater.
