Really good heater – It works great and it’s consistent Easy to move Long warranty period (though their preferred repairs in Frankston could work on their customer service skills) I have a $899 HP07 Dyson that has heat and cool function but the thermostat on the Dyson is so way off compared to this The good thing is you can wheel this into position as well The one… Read more

thing in some of the other comments is regarding the on off sound or consistent ‘crackling’ sound One of our relatives had this occur to him it was due to moving the unit over uneven surfaces (rug in the hallway between bedrooms) while the unit was still heated - this creates air bubbles which makes the crackling sound. To fix this keep the unit off for a week or so on a flat surface and don’t move it over uneven surfaces while the unit has heated up

Anyway

Things I like - heats well - no sore throat type after affects you get from ducted heating - thermostat is very accurate - reasonable price point - the power usage is a lot lower then the dyson

Things I don’t like - caster wheels could be smoother - when the room becomes a fair bit colder in the early hours of morning (6-9 degrees outside) the unit struggles to stay in the top range of your desired temp (i.e. 17temp on the highest level should heat a room to 17.9degrees as it does most of the day/ night but when it comes to 4/5/6 am it’s more like 16.5 degrees)

Overall I would recommend this heater

Good heater, but it makes too much noise – I bought this heater for my baby's room, it heats the space in 5-10 minutes. It keeps the space warm and cosy, but it makes so much noise that my daughter wakes up with the crackling. Show details

ALL THE WARMZ!! – I purchased this heater over a week ago from Harvey Norman. I was a bit hesitant because it's my first oil heater and due to all of the nasty smell review I read. I have the most sensitive nose so I thought I'd better plug it in on the deck outside. Within 12 hours I was able to use it. I tried it in the medium sized lounge room (4x7) and it made me nice and toasty within two hours! Over the moon with my purchase! Best heater I've ever! Show details

Excellent room heater – Bought this heater a couple of weeks ago and it has been brilliant. Bought it to warm up a large bedroom and it has done the job only sitting on the medium heat setting. The thermostat was set once and hasn't needed to be readjusted again. Was considering buying the heater with the fan but it is definitely not required. Would not hesitate to recommend this heater

Very Useful Heater – Highly recommend this heater, we purchased this product for our sons nursery as we live in a very old house with no insulation so having the digital thermostat and timer function was a need. The matte dark grey finish is very appealing compared to your tradition white heaters. You have the function to set it on low or high function to ensure… Read more

you get the full heat functionality in colder climates. The heater heats up very quickly, it is quite warm to touch so definitely keep it out of reach of children.

The buttons are quite loud when changing or turning on so not the best idea to change the heater settings while your child sleeps.

It is as energy efficient as a thermostat heater can be.

Great heater, keeps the room nice and warm – This is a great heater, it gets warm very quickly and can keep a room at a nice temperature at a lower setting. The 2400w really kicks in and makes the room really warm. However this comes with a bigger cost on the electricity bill and being 2400w is expensive to run - and not something you'd want on all day. Probably on a few hours in the evening… Read more

at most. It also has a nice 24hr timer which is handy.

It wouldn't be ideal for a huge open space, but does the job of keeping my main living area warm on cool nights.

The retractable/tuck in feet are really hand for storage. Although the machine itself is quiet heavy to lift and move.

Terrible – We bought this for our baby room 5 months ago. You need to use it at least 6 or 7 times in an open area, would be best to do it outside to get rid of the awful thick dusty smelling air. Only heats up small rooms. Once finally in the baby room its makes really loud cracking sounds all night which wakes up the baby and us constantly. Randomly… Read more

turns itself off. Its says its on, but you feel it and its cold and no heat is coming out of it.

Complete waste of money.

Powerful yet reliable heater – I was a bit sceptical about oil heater as some users suggested it could be slow to warm a room. Before deciding to go for one, I ensure it has enough power for my living room and the heater must be safe and reliable. After research, I went for DeLonghi for its wide range and longer warranty offered. No regret at all after one whole winter. This… Read more

oil heater would not overly dry the room so it's comfortable with it turned on even for longer duration. Power was sufficient for my living room as I have never needed to wait for the room to get warm enough. Operation was quiet too except a bit of smell when the heater was turned the first few times. I think this is normal for such high heat appliance.

Strongly recommended for those whose skin cannot take other type of heater.

Quality : 5/5

Easy of operation : 4/5 (timer could be easier to set)

Practicality : 5/5

Value for money : 5/5

Modern heater – Very modern heater, quite attractive look and feel, very modern. and I like the buttons and small screen, make it looks much smarter. I bought it last winder, it can heater up a 20 square meter room. in about 30 mins. But it does smells in the first few usage, after that it's fine  Show details

Great heater! – Its a great heater... purchased from Myer. The heater heats up really fast and keeps the baby's room warm all night. Also, holds temperature of the room through cold nights very well. Very straight forward to use. Only issue is... the smell when using 'maximum' - may need to be to be aired for longer than the manual recommends.  Show details

A quality heater. Issues with smell at first but seem to have gone after a month or so – This is a good product which we have had no issues with apart from a strong metallic smell which lasted for 6 weeks or so. The brochure warns there will be a smell for the first few hours of operation but this lasted much longer. Anyway apart from this it has been a good heater. It heats a medium sized room. We largely leave it on over night on the low eco setting stop temp dropping too low. Apart from the smell it is a good unit.  Show details

Excellent oil heater! – Love this heater! It works perfect in winter and since it is an oil heater, the heat last way longer than if we use a fan heater. Our room has a bathroom so it is quite a big space but this heater works well. One thing I love is because it has a timer so we can turn it on for 1-2 hour before we go to sleep and 1-2 hour before we wake up in the morning. It also comes with 7 years warranty.  Show details

Very average – This is ok if u only need to heat a tiny room, If you used it in your bathroom it would not be to bad or maybe a small nursery but its not much good to me as I dai=nt have heaters going when I go to bed and by time it heats up its time to turn it off  Show details
