The stylish small but mighty 1500W heater has an adjustable thermostat

As energy bills and costs rise as temperatures plummet, shoppers are seeking a more affordable alternative to switching on the heating. Dunelm is offering a selection of products that could provide the perfect solution.

The 1500W Small Square Olive Heater, priced at £30, has received high praise from over 60 reviewers, with some describing it as ‘powerful’. The device’s heat is powered by 1500W and it also features an adjustable thermostat, making it ideal for selecting the perfect temperature.

One of the heater’s key features is its compact design (22.8cm x 22cm x 22.5cm), making it a small yet mighty tool for warming up homes. For safety purposes, it includes a power indicator light function to show when it’s in use, and comes with an additional safety tip-over switch and overheating protection.

For those with a larger budget, another option is the De’Longhi Slimline Convection Heater White, available from Lakeland for £114.99. This model boasts three temperature settings, a 24-hour digital timer and a fan mode. It’s also said to be suitable for rooms up to 72m3 and costs 82p per hour to run, according to the site, reports the Daily Record.

Yimbly, a site owned by the Daily Record’s parent company Reach Plc, is offering a range of heaters on sale, including the SmartAir Glow Heat Electric Heater, now priced at £45 (RRP £49.99). However, with the discount code AUTUMN10, shoppers can get it for £40.50. This heater offers customisable warmth, ambient lighting and safety features, making it the ‘perfect way to heat any space’.

The 1500W Small Square Olive Heater has received a high rating of 4.5 out of five stars from over 60 reviews on the Dunelm website. One customer said: “Small but powerful little heater, gives plenty of heat in a short time, very happy.”

Another reviewer wrote: “Packs a punch for such a small heater. Ideal to take the chill off a room – preferably with the doors closed too – meaning I can delay putting the heating on or even do without.”

A third customer commented: “Saw this in store and immediately realised I wanted this heater. Good build quality, not like some of the other flimsy ones out there. Good temperature output, not overly loud.”

However, some had reservations, as one Dunelm shopper shared: “Lovely little heater. I’d like it better if it was a little quieter.”

Another customer who purchased the 1500W Small Square Olive Heater explained: “Very stylish and functional heater. It warms up a small room reasonably quick. The only problem is that it cannot be plugged into extension and cannot be placed on carpet, so I need to find ways to place it on a safe place.”
