Dunelm is offering a plug-in heater that costs roughly 13p per hour to run, and shoppers can buy it for as little as £2.70 through a TopCashback deal. Customers have praised the device, with one saying, "We have used this great heater until we put central heating on. Great value for money, easy to operate, very smart looking."
Affordable Heating Amid Rising Energy Bills
As temperatures drop across the country, many households are concerned about the cost of turning on their central heating. The Plug-in PTC Heater, priced at £18, provides a low-cost alternative. Shoppers new to TopCashback who are also new Dunelm customers can get the heater for £2.70 after cashback, while existing Dunelm customers new to TopCashback can get it for £2.85.
The prices include free click and collect with Dunelm; home delivery costs an extra £3.95. The portable heater features a ceramic heating element in a compact design, making it suitable for smaller rooms and personal spaces. It has an LED screen to indicate the temperature and adjustable fans for controlling heat output.
Running Costs and Safety Features
The heater runs at 500W, which under the Ofgem price cap increase enforced at the start of October, costs roughly 13p per hour to run continuously. It includes in-built overheating protection, though it should not be left on indefinitely for health and safety reasons.
For those seeking a larger option, the Dimplex HeatLite Smart Convector Heater is available for £84.99 and can heat rooms up to 20m2. Alternatively, the Warmlite Thermo Fan Heater is available on Amazon for £14.99, with two heat settings and overheating protection.
Customer Reviews and How to Get the Deal
Customers have left largely positive reviews on the Dunelm website. One wrote: "Bought these portable heaters and they are fab. Only have them on a short time and they definitely take the chill out. Would recommend 100%." Another said: "My small, freezing kitchen needs something to take the chill off at times other than when I am actively cooking. This is perfect - I plug it in and close the door and 15 mins later I have a room I can go into to make a cuppa without getting frostbite."
Some customers noted limitations, with one saying, "This micro plug in heater gives out quite a bit of heat on full, which is okay if you’re sat close to it, but it doesn’t heat a room very well." Another added, "This heater is 500w, so obviously its not going to heat a large room. It will heat a 6' x 6' cupboard fairly quickly, but thats about all."
