Best Dimplex Electric Heaters

We purchased 2.4 9 fin and 1.5 4 fin models over 10 years ago and are still happy. The 9 fin model is great for living area while 4 fin perfect for… Read more

bedroom even set on level 1 with thermostate set on less than half. We tried new ceramic and radiant convector but appreciate the quiet economical eco copper coil oil free model. We used them in Otago, Christchurch and Southland which get pretty cold

Very Happy with our purchase – We have been using the Dimplex Portable Electric heater for a few months now and we love it. It makes our lounge room feel and so cozy, it also… Read more

makes the room look stylish.

We also have two little kids who love playing with stuff but this heater is very safe for someone who is worried about the kids burning themselves.

We are very happy with our purchase well worth the money.

Love this heater – We also love the fact that it's child-safe. It's also easy to clean. Show details

Perfect for a small bedroom! – I got this on special, even full price I would buy another! It has a fan setting, heat setting 1, and heat setting 2 you can adjust on a scale. I… Read more

love it! I recommended it to a few people, and our cheap heater went in one of our other bedrooms so will probably buy this one again!!

Poorly assembled faulty product – I purchased an 8-bar 2.4KW Oil Heater. On unpacking from the carton I found that one side of the heater is detached and cannot be connected. It would… Read more

appear that the product has been poorly assembled at the factory. Calls to the online supplier have met with no response. I would visit a service centre except there is no address online. I cannot find anyone willing to rectify this problem. What am I supposed to do ,throw it out? Very poor service. Subsequent to this review a response was received from Dimplex ignoring most of the content of my review and telling me to contact the retailer. READ MY REVIEW DIMPLEX. I HAVE ALREADY DONE THAT . This product should never have left their factory. Personally I will never again purchase a dimplex product.

Love it as a fireplace – Looks so realistic and makes the room feel cosy. The only trouble is that the heater is VERY noisy so we don’t use the heating function at all. We use our air conditioning for heat and switch on the flames for ambiance. Show details

Simple, good looking and easy to use electric fan – I had used one of these previously and liked it, so I decided to upgrade to a Dimplex Revillusion fireplace, which was a fail as the unit was too… Read more

noisy and I returned it. I bought another 'Lee Silver' as an interim replacement and it's really good - the flame effect looks okay, nice and cosy, and the 2KW heater isn't particularly loud. It is super easy to use, with 2 heat settings and a thermostat so you can leave it on a particular setting. For under $400 (I think I paid $384 from Appliances Online, delivered) it's a great deal.

My Dimplex cube caught fire on bottom – My dimplex Cube also burnt a foot of the base I then called them and they said you should not put it on carpet. Most people have carpet. How… Read more

ludicrous.

They said it says no carpet on the box. I dont have the box so i cant say but why isn't it saying this on the actual heater???

I have 2 of these too scared to use the other at $160 they aren't a toy.

I would not buy anything dimplex again.

Happy to have this heater that keeps me warm and cozy. It is simple to use - only turn on the switch. Full of gratitude to Harvey Norman City staff… Read more

especially Benjamin who supported me in every way to get it to my apartment. Much credit and appreciation to the service provided.

Huge Fire Risk – A very cheaply made heater of poor quality. This heater lacks basic safety features found on even $30 heaters such as a tip over switch and overheat… Read more

protection. The body of the heater gets hot enough to burn anyone who touches it (as is noted in the manual and Choice's review). The heater is less effective at heating a closed 4m x 4m room than a cheap and nasty $30 fan heater from K-mart. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this heater. There are safer and more efficient options for less money.

Save your money – Waste of money. I bought this heater as it was 2000kw with 2 heat settings and it had the added optiflame realistic look. So disappointed with it. I… Read more

sit 1.5 metres from the heater and can't feel any heat at all. There is no difference between the 1000 and 2000 settings that I can see/feel. It has a thermostat but even on high setting it never reaches a temperature where the thermostat cuts in.

I wrote to dimplex and this is their reply -

"This heater is designed for supplemental heating only and is more for aesthetics.  The heater only gives out about a meter or so of radius heat and will not heat a large room".

So if you are after warmth, save your money. No-one wants to pay hundreds of dollars for a heater that doesn't heat and just looks pretty.

May 2025 - update on my review. Dimplex has been in contact with me and has assisted me with the purchase. Not to say the product has changed but at least they were willing to make amends even after 12 months, kudos to Dimplex.
