Delonghi Oil Filled Radiator

When we purchased our flat in May 2006, it was the middle of summer, and hence the flat, which received direct sunlight for ¾ of the day, was very warm. However as the months passed, and the summer warmth faded we found ourselves resorting to the panel heaters installed in the flat. These panel heaters weren’t very reliable and produced limited heat, mainly within a 2 metre span from the heat source, not very useful when you’re trying to heat a large bedroom and living room. Having browsed through the Argos catalogue for an alternative heat supply, we decided on purchasing a Delonghi Oil Filled Radiator, currently available for £44.99. The Delonghi brand name ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these to provide background heating in the day time for a couple of small offices that interconnect. It really is sufficient if you are moving around and would provide background heating for a fairly large sized sitting room. The heater is actually an oil filled radiator with six fins that along the length of it. The radiator heats up very quickly and can be set at 1 or 2 kilowatts depending on your preference. It cost me £69 from a local electrical shop. It has a variable thermostat which has 6 settings and you can let it heat the room and then set the thermostat so that the temperature stays the same. This is very economical if ...  Read the complete review

Delonghi is not a name I had heard before venturing into the Argos catalogue. Here, I decided on buying a 3kW oil filled radiator for a couple of reasons. 1) My 20' long L-shaped room in my rented accommodation got very cold during the winter 2) It was oil-filled, meaning it retained and thus emitted heat over a period of time, unlike fan heaters that go stone cold in a moment's notice 3) It was one of the biggest wattage radiators there. 4) Delonghi were one of the biggest reputable manufacturers of radiators out there 5) It came with a 5 year guarantee, where could I go wrong?

I have one of these radiators and I use it to heat a small bedroom. The radiator is very much like a radiator on the wall, only it is not connected to the central heating, you simply plug it in to a socket - and instead of containing water, it contains oil, which stays permenantly in the radiator and which never needs replacing. Oil filled radiators have their advantages and disadvantages. The problem with them is that they are very expensive to run if you require hotter temperatures in a room, perhaps because you are growing tropical plants or something similiar. My own radiator is 1.5kW and it really does eat power, though I have purchased a digital oil ...  Read the complete review

Athough we only lived in a very small two up two down house it was still getting a bit chilli in the evenings. We had double glazing but it was still not a pleasure getting into bed without your electric blanket. Our daughter was 7 months old and there is a certain temperature rooms should be for children at that age. We were originally going to spend £40 but my husband decided he liked the look of the delonghi (at £99). So when he bought it home i told him very politely.....i hope it is worth it. Well the room in our house was always the correct temperature and it worked wonderfully. We have now moved to a 3 bed house and we ...  Read the complete review
