The ECR is the true definition of the classic finned radiator thanks to its traditional fin design. It boasts super-fast warm up times when compared to oil filled equivalents thanks to its patented Thermocore Oil-free technology which offers up to 9% energy savings compared to traditional Oil-filled radiators*. In addition as there is no oil it is an eco-friendly alternative to oil filled radiators.To aid dexterity this portable radiator features large rotary controls that are easy to adjust, whilst the three heat settings and adjustable thermostat enable closer control of heat for economical running. The integrated 24 hour digital timer features 4 programme periods per day and has battery back up so will remember its settings in an event of a power cut. Portability is easier thanks to easy glide castors, integrated carry handle and because it is oil free, is lighter than oil filled direct equivalents. Safety is paramount, with overheat protection and tilt switch system fitted which cuts the power if accidentally knocked over. Again thanks to its patented oil free technology there are no risks of leaks or ruptures. The ECR has been independently approved to Europe's highest product safety standard (BEAB certification) and comes with a 3 year guarantee (registration required). *Based on a 2kW ECR heating a room from 10°C to 22°C, maintaining 22°C for 5 hours and then switched off versus 2kW Oil-filled column radiator. This product is only suitable for well insulated spaces or occasional use.

The product itself is great, purchased two radiators now from Dimplex. Recommended the product to family and friends, and also gave another glowing full score.Improvements: combine both oil and this type of technology, giving the best of both. Have more lower wattage options on the radiator. Allowing customers the flexibility to use less energy when the heater is on for longer periods. Have an off button where all lights go out (when the heater off light still on). Have cable on opposite side of where buttons are for ease of positioning near wall/furniture and avoid tangling of wire. Have a radiator with large on and off buttons instead of a dial. Making it easier to use for the elderly who have arthritis in hands not good eye sight.The heater purchased itself ... MoreThe product itself is great, purchased two radiators now from Dimplex.

I will not know how good the Dimplex customer service is until used. I hope they honour the guarantee and give good customer service in the future.

This machine is fabulous the heat is tremendous . Heats our living room (20 sq MTR) no problem. We don't even have it full on only 1500 watt and are so comfortable and 🥵. Easy to set timer and re set and also use at any other time not disturbing the timer. Great product wish we had bought sooner

I am using this in a log cabin down the garden. So far this radiator works significantly better than the cheaper unbranded 2kW oil filled radiator I previously had. It heats up very fast and within 15mins the room is pretty warm. Unfortunately the supplied instructions do not adequately tell you how to set the timer. Pins in or pins out but I managed to download the same instruction sheet from Dimplex's website which contained an extra page showing how to do it. Not sure why that page was missing from the included instructions. Pins in for OFF and pins out for ON. All in all though I am very impressed by it so far.

Seems to do the trick. Easy set up. Haven't used the timer as prefer to switch on and off yet. Manual controls v easy to use. Effective at bringing the room to a good temperature fairly rapidly (especially with door to room closed). Castors very handy and easy to put on. Yes, I'm pleased with it so far and looking forward to not being so very cold this winter. Haven't received my bills yet so will update again when I do.
I purchased this free standing radiator because it was highly recommended by a member of staff and also because it had all the features I required on a radiator. Got it home and it was easy to set up - not too much packaging either - easy to follow the short instructions and gives off a great amount of heat. It appears to be very economical and "thinks for itself" so will switch off when it reaches the required heat setting. Comes on again when the temperature drops below the setting.Really pleased with it and am considering purchasing another
I bought this Dimplex Heater last weekend which was the coldest of the year so far. Our gas boiler broke down but I was able to heat the bedrooms up with this electric heater. It heats a room up quickly and silently. It has wheels, so can be pushed around easily. One small shame is that there is only one slot to put a hand so needed to let it cool down a few minutes before taking upstairs
Bought this heater having looked at other types of heater, decided this would be ideal for needs, a mid sized north facing front room, didn't want to put heating on for just one room use. This heater performs well in room, if you start on high setting to start with, then you can put it on number two or one setting, also can be wheeled into any other room if required. Only had heater a short while so can not comment on reliability but has 3 years guarantee.
Bought these to replace oil-filled radiators which were getting on in years. Heat output within a few minutes was really good and quickly brought our HS&L up to our desired temperature. The enclosed manual was missing the section for Control Knob and temperature setting knob. Thankfully Screwfix website had PDF copy with that section printed. The markings on the two dials aren’t particularly easy to read. Delivery box shows picture of black handle fitted to fins (?) but not included.
This is not a radiator, it's a very expensive convection heater. It doesn't replace the oil with something else, it does away with the whole circulating fluid system and substitutes a large element hidden in the fins of a radiator-lookalike. As a result it radiates no heat, and instead sends a column of hot air up to the ceiling. You can sit right next to it and get no benefit from it. The fins are hot at the very top, but remain cool to the touch at the sides. You can buy convection heaters for a third of the price that do the same thing, and are better as they are lower to the ground.In addition, the digital timer loses all its settings if you unplug it to move it to another room, which makes it substantially less useful than expected. It's also really expensive ... MoreThis is not a radiator, it's a very expensive convection heater.

Priced competitively at Screwfix, this is an oil-free electric ‘radiator’. It heats up quickly and much quicker than oil filled equivalent. It is effective and seems more economical to run than oil-filled radiator of similar output. One small annoyance is the ‘clicking’ when heating and cooling of the element(s) occur.
