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 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.

Works well, but controls are not intuitive – Useful for heating a small area. Turbo fan- basically just a fan! Appears to be able to maintain a room temperature, but there is no indication of what that temperature is.

Purchased in at Harvey Norman for $139.

Suits my needs perfectly – This heater quickly heats up a good sized area if turned up high. It is easy to use & reaches temperature quite quickly. I use it to heat a bathroom, and it does the job. the fan seems week at first, but in a closed room is adequate. I would recommend this product

Would give it 5 stars but controls need to be more visible eg luminous numbers – Great heater, perfect for my medium/large bedroom, just right to take the edge off the chill of winter. My last Dimplex column heater lasted 15 years. Display on this model isn't great; small black characters that I can't see at all as the room isn't brightly lit.

Struggles to heat even small room – Disappointed with the heat output of this heater. It gets quite hot to the touch but struggles to heat a 3m x 3m room. It does take the edge off the cold but I’m far from impressed. Perhaps I’ve been spoilt by our 30 year old Vulcan oil column heaters which made the same room almost unbearably hot. Compared to that heater this Dimplex model is woefully under-powered. It would be interesting to know just how much heat it is generating. The design is streamlined and seems well made and I would recommend it but would warn not to expect too much from the Dimplex oil column heater model OCR24FA.

Purchased in for $161.
