Dunelm’s £25 electric heater ‘heats up very quickly’ and costs 19p an hour
As the chill sets in, battling whether to flick the heating on becomes a dilemma, especially with energy bills set to escalate from October. Many may choose to not put it on in order to avoid higher costs.
In anticipation of Ofgem’s impending price cap rise, Britons are scouting for cost-saving methods to stay snug indoors. Luckily, Dunelm offers a thrifty option that won’t break the bank.
The retailer has slashed the price of its 650W 5 Fin Oil Filled Radiator to £25, and customers report it quickly heats rooms without needing to turn on central heating. This mini radiator from Dunelm features thermostatic controls and has garnered an array of five-star ratings.
Consumers suggest this gadget is significantly impacting their combat against the cold and burgeoning energy expenses. Dunelm’s assertion that the device runs at less than 19p per hour, according to existing energy prices, is a notable draw for buyers.
Given the affordability, it’s viable to warm a space sufficiently, a cheaper alternative to activating the home’s heating system. In a glowing endorsement, one buyer remarked: “This looks such a small unit, you wonder how good it will be – no need to worry! The heat output in an average bedroom, play room, snug or home office is brilliant.”
Another customer praised the compact yet powerful device, saying it ‘really throws out warmth’ and helps to ‘take the edge off’ during nippy winter mornings. A third reviewer commented: “Such an efficient heater for its size. Great extra source of heat and Smart Meter efficient too! ” Vicky chimed in with her thoughts: “Light weight great for a small room heats up very quickly easy to move with handle.”
In addition to warming the space, one clever buyer found another use for the heater, revealing: “I bought this because of its small size for the winter months to go under my indoor clothes airer. It does a brilliant job and is just the right size to make a big difference to drying times.”
Yet, not all feedback was glowing. A dissatisfied user reported that it ‘works well but only if you’re sitting next to it’ while someone else pointed out it ‘could do with a longer plug’.
