Product Information

Testers praised its quiet design and Wi-Fi compatibility, which allows you to control it via your phone, even if you’re not directly nearby.

We’ve also highlighted whether they have handles, as this impacts their portability – many don’t, meaning you'll have to wait until they’ve cooled down before you can safely move them. Performance Designed to emulate a traditional oil filled radiator, just without the oil, (which means that it heats up faster than a classic oil-filled radiator) this 2000W electric radiator is the most powerful in our round-up. When I try to change something with the buttons, for example adjust the temperature, nothing happens. Design Looking more like a smart speaker, this sleek grey and black fan heater does away with the white chunky lines of the traditional space heater entirely. For example, we used it in the home office while working and then unplugged it and took it to the kitchen when it was lunchtime, so we could feel comfortable all day.

This means they won’t heat a whole room in quite the same way, but if they’re positioned near you, they should make you nice and toasty. We liked to whack it up to 2,000W and turn the thermostat up to the max, and found it was more than capable of generating enough heat for a 15sqm home office. Digital timer versions are available, as are more powerful nine-fin versions, but for a small, light, portable space heater this is just right. Our experts rated it highly for its sturdy design, complete with a neat cord storage system and a responsive control panel.

Depending on how you use it, it could be one of the cheapest or priciest electric heaters to power in our round-up. Frost protection - An electric heater with frost protection emits low-level heat when the temperature drops below a certain level. Their added bonus is that whilst the warmth tends to disappear the minute you turn a fan or halogen heater off, with a convector heater the warmth lingers for much longer. The oil takes a while to warm up, plinking and plonking as it goes, and the heat that slowly emerges from the top in a “chimney” effect goes up, not out. The secret is the radiant heater's gold halogen bulb technology that produces safe beaming heat rays just like the sun and stay warm outside, even when it's snowing.I found the controls a little difficult to navigate as they aren't marked very clearly, and the operating instructions left a lot to be desired, with the instructional manual not always describing the functionality accurately.
