De'LonghiTRNS0505M Oil Filled Radiator - White

I bought for my caravan mainly as a cheap energy alternative to taking the overnight chill off at the beginning and end of the season. It’s still usually cold in April and this little thing did the job very nicely over the Easter bank holiday and will now give me comfort, and three extra months of weekends away in April, September and October. Very happy with the product, you could clearly see and feel the quality. I felt reassured by this delonghi…

Highly recommended

With the ever-rising cost of electricity, the big 2kW heaters will cost an arm and a leg. This little 500W heater does a marvellous job, even at "2" it heats our bedroom up to a perfect 18°C. Considering it goes up to 6, I'm sure itll do a great job with bigger rooms as well.

The dimensions in the spec for the heater are not centimetres but actually inches.

This heater has surpassed all expectations and has replaced my previous 2000w as my main heater now.Was originally bought as a secondary top up heater but this has now relegated the other to a spare. While previously I needed two heaters to warm my property, this little powerhouse is currently holding things down solo.Don't let the small size or wattage fool you, this heater is incredibly powerful for the size and kicks out a decent amount of heat even on the lower settings. I've never had to turn this heater above 3/5 due to how much it puts out. Set and forget thermostat for added efficiencyAdmittedly I live in a small property so experience may vary, but anyone in a flat, bungalow or student dorm should seriously consider investing in this oil heaterSolid, robust design with a decent weight, so no risk of knocking it over and it looks adorable sat in the room. Takes up very little space and can fit into most spaces. Would also be good for use underneath a desk in an officeWould definitely recommend to anyone looking for a small, solid and robust, oil filled radiator

My heating bills were becoming very high and I was generally in my small office.I purchased one of these and it’s only half a KW when on. In my office 2m x 3m it spends most of its time off and I get a toasty 20degrees C with a very very low bill.So good I bought a second for a larger bedroom.It’s great at either heating a small room alone, or for large rooms where you keep the house cooler and want a boost. Clearly if you want to heat a large space this may struggle. However I am really suprised at how much heat it belts out for such little money.

I recently purchased the De'Longhi TRNS0505M Oil Filled Radiator 0.5Kw, as a top-up heater. I am somewhat disappointed with my purchase as it does n’t quite hit the spot.My intention was to use it under my desk for added warmth while working during the winter season.Having previously bought a Dimplex oil-filled radiator with a 2Kw capacity, I encountered similar disappointments. Neither quite hit the spot during a cold winter.I have good memories of older Dimplex older “flat panel" oil-filled radiators, which I found to be more effective. They are superior and give off a nice radiant warmth. You can't beat that. They take up more space. I don’t think these oil-filled radiators like they used to.Despite being aware that the De'Longhi TRNS0505M is a 0.5Kw unit, the more powerful 2kw Dimplex, was n’t much better. However, I appreciate the smaller size of the De'Longhi, allowing me to conveniently use it under my desk. The Dimplex was too tall to fit under my desk. It is easy to move the De'Longhi around, as not too heavy. It does not have castor wheel, but I don't they are are needed.The temperature control system seems outdated. Adjusting the temperature to a specific degree, like 22C, proves hard, due to the simplistic knob with settings ranging from 1 to 6. The oil heater cools down rapidly, when turned off, leaving no residual heat.I still use a fan heater, which warms the air in the house, but provides a different kind of heat, but the things in the house still feel cold to the touch.There is no perfect product. I wish manufacturers would come with a product which ‘hits’ the spot during winter time.I would still consider purchasing the De'Longhi TRNS0505M again. It is well made. I am hoping someone comes up with something better, which gives off both warm air and radiant heating.

Great efficiency from a compact heaterWe use it to heat our motor home
