There’s an easy to read LED display and 12 hour timer, which can be used to heat your home at times to suit your daily routine. The main downside I found to its design is the 1 metre long power cable. I found ihis wasn’t nearly as long as the cables on the other heaters I tested, potentially limiting where it’s plugged in and where it can be used. Performance Besides good looks, the biggest plus point of this convector heater is the size of space it can comfortably heat – up to 20sq m – and that it has an IP24 rating meaning that you can use it in damp spaces. The fact you can also choose to wall-mount it via the included wall kit is another bonus. It also comes with 'open window detection' functionality (meaning it turns off if a sudden drop of 5°C in temperature within 10 minutes is detected, to save on wasted energy), timer, and night mode, meaning you can leave it on a low heat to keep a bedroom toasty whilst the display dims so it doesn't keep you awake. My garden office measures just under 15sqm and is where I work day-to-day, so it was the perfect place to test out how toasty each space heater could make an otherwise unheated room. This versatile plug-in heater provides up to 30°C of heat from 700W of power and features 2 fan speeds for added flexibility. The built in adjustable thermostat helps you maintain the perfect level of heat in any space up to 10m², meaning it’s great for utility rooms, workshops or small bedrooms.

Consider the price. We’ll dive into a lot more detail on the price of RUSSELL HOBBS RHPH2001 Ceramic Plug Heater shortly, but in terms of quality, the obvious advice here is ‘you get what you pay for’. It’s really just being aware that if you’re buying the cheapest of the Heating and cooling from Currys PC World you might not expect the same level of quality as you’d get from a decent quality product like RUSSELL HOBBS RHPH2001 Ceramic Plug Heater. PORTABLE PLUG IN HEATER – Ideal for close proximity heating in your home office, living space, or even your caravan. The next step in the price analysis was to look at the average price you would typically expect to pay for Heating and cooling and as Currys PC World was selected for this review we’ve used them for gathering our information on the average price of Heating and cooling. The controls themselves consist of an on-off switch and three buttons; a plus and minus button for raising and lowering the desired temperature (within a 15-30°C range), and a Mode button for changing the fan speed, alongside an LED display. 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. You’ll definitely need the instruction manual to hand for setting the heater's timer, as it’s not obvious how to do this without it. In short, ease of use is where this electric heater falls down compared to some of the others I’ve reviewed, in particular the super simple Beldray Flatbed fan heater which was refreshingly hassle-free. The specification we have listed from Currys PC World for RUSSELL HOBBS RHPH2001 Ceramic Plug Heater is:This Compact Ceramic Plug Heater from Russell Hobbs is the perfect portable product to warm your home office, living space, or even your caravan. Ideal for travel, the compact size means you can simply slip it into your bag for convenient heating wherever you are.

Plus, there’s an easy to read LED display and 12 hour timer, which can be used to heat your home at times to suit your daily routine. Design Whilst cheaper fan heaters focus purely on function, the Duux Threesixty 2 Smart Fan Heater adds style to the mix. It’s by far the most stylish electric heater I've come across, with a minimalist cylindrical design and modern matt finish in white or grey. Compared to most of its competitors at this price point, this indoor heater is definitely the most design-led.

Convector heaters: A convector heater looks more like a traditional radiator. They can still be moved around your home but are bulkier, and, in many cases, heavier than most fan heaters.

Noise levels The Dreo Space Heater has a noise level of just 37.5dB (the oscillation raises this to 40dB). I found it to be equivalent to the level of noise of the Beldray fan heater I tested – quiet enough to talk over but still noticeable. One other thoughtful feature is being able to switch off its electronic beeps.Anything of a nature that for hygiene or associated health and safety - this includes the Outdoor Spas, Mattresses and Divan Sets If you wish to return your item to Robert Dyas, you can do so by the following method: 1.

Next up after looking at the category and the average prices, we thought it would be good to take a look at the brand, Russell Hobbs. Design The Beldray Flatbed Portable Fan Heater is functional rather than stylish. When compared to the other heaters I tested, it stands out as the most basic looking, but given its price point – at normal retail price it just pips the Russell Hobbs 700W Ceramic Plug In Heater to being the cheapest heater in our round-up – its ease of use, and performance, this is easily overlooked. After testing all the electric heaters in this round up, the Dreo Space Heater came out as my overall favourite. Whilst it’s a fan heater, so possibly costly to run for long periods of time, it had a good balance of versatility, heat distribution, style and affordability. Overall, I think that makes it the best electric heater for winter when measured against the competition.

Consider the brand. We’ll go into more detail in a moment about brand and whether Russell Hobbs is your best option for Heating and cooling. But the point here is just to make sure you’re factoring in brand when considering the quality of a product. Some brands will be better known for quality than others, and no doubt some of the much higher quality brands will attract a higher price for their products. Noise levels There’s no stated dB for this heater but it’s not terribly noisy when running. The high fan speed has more of a whine, so if you find it obtrusive, the lower speed may be more suitable. I found the heat the Duux Edge provided was instant but gentle, and can be felt about a metre above from being turned on. As it's a convector heater, it did take a while for the heat to diffuse throughout the space as there's no fan to push the warmth instantly into the room, but the upside is that this heater throws out warmth for a good length of time even after it's turned off. I also liked the fact that the Edge enabled me to set my desired temperature down to the exact degree. If you have your heart set on a particular brand or even a selection of brands then we’d suggest you spend a bit of time writing up a list of the brands that you would happily buy. This can really help you in narrowing down the selection when it comes to choosing a product. For example, over at Currys PC World you can filter products by brand, so you could filter just to show the brands on your list. This is especially useful knowing that there are 41 Heating and cooling to choose from at Currys PC World. As convector heaters are slower to heat up from cold, it can be worthwhile to look for one with a timer so you can set it to come on before you want to use a room. 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.
