Great value
Bought to replace similar radiator that wasn’t up to the job. More powerful heater for more warmth.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS JUNK
We have had this heater for something less than a year and it has now stopped working and doesn't heat anymore - I have socks that have lasted longer.

Forget buying this product
I’m in my second one of these. First one stopped working after a couple of months. Second stopped working after a couple of years so officially out of warranty but if you want to invest in a heater that lasts DON’T buy this one. Sorry for being so downbeat B&Q but it’s just not good enough and going by your other reviews I’m clearly not the only one having troubles.

Junk.
Working one day then just stopped working. Shows as heating but does not heat up. Looking at other reviews it looks like a common theme. Waste of time, effort and money... Tried resetting the heater. No change. Tried running through the setting (which you need a masters degree to understand). All settings set for heating to be ON.

programming
Stay away from this heater unless you have a degree in computer science the set up to programme it is a total nightmare, we gave up and now run it in constant at 18c

How does one repair this radiator?
How does one reboot this radiator? Mine stopped working after 2 years. Display shows temparature, but there is no heat. Who repairs this radiator?

Stopped working after a couple of months
Bought this for my mum, it worked ok last winter, but I’ve been trying to persuade it to work for the last couple of weeks and it’s just not saving the settings. A simple on/off switch would have been better. Also no receipt now as mum threw it out so can’t return it even tho it’s under guarantee

Initially great but now it's packed in
This product was bought to heat a 4m by 4m room and did so brilliantly for there first 7months and then just stopped working. I managed to reboot the radiator the first time but since then nothing. Great product!

Not a convector! it is an INERTIA CERAMIC HEATER
Used this for several weeks (two: 1500W and 2000W versions) and they are great. As opposed to convectors the ceramic insert gets heated and stores heat delivering gentle heat without sudden increase or drop when thermostat switches on/off. You just have to wait several minutes as it gets going. After they heat up they only use occasional pulses of electricity rather than take the electricity non-stop. There is a thermal capacity hence they are called inertia ceramic heaters. They are heavier than the convectors due to ceramic or natural stone like marble being fitted to provide thermal capacity. Easy to change temperature by simply pressing plus and minus and OK on a LCD controller. Easy to program, instructions provided. It is silent and odor free. Design is pleasing. External White aluminum will not burn skin. I did not hang it on the wall, instead I just fitted a U.K. plug and stood it on the floor experimenting with different location in my holiday summer home. Well calibrated thermostat really keeps desired 19 deg C day and night, as measured by thermometers. It is not supplied with any legs nor wheels (wall brackets) but it will stand. The external casing at the bottom is cool enough not to burn the floor. LCD could be backlit. If you need the “ON” light connect it via clock or spur with neon or LED. There is no ON light which I think is a bonus as it does not lit the room at night. It is a bit pricy but worth it as comfort is far superior in comparison to convectors heating the air directly with all the bad smell of burned dust they release or noisy blowers. I will be connecting it via wall electronic programmable heater clock (it does not have time programming, only temperature). It is too early to tell how much it will cost me to heat but probably the same as using old smelly convectors and noisy blowers which periodically overheat and underheat in between.
