Dunelm shoppers hail £20 heater that warms room 'in minutes' at 17p an hour

Shoppers have been raving about an affordable plug in heater from Dunelm that works quickly and costs pennies to run.

Scotland is currently facing a cold snap right now, with temperatures across the country plunging to freezing with the threat of snowfall and ice. Add on the current cost of living crisis and many households will be looking for more affordable methods of keeping their home warm.

Which is why shoppers have been snapping up the Plug in PTC Heater from home furnishings retailer Dunelm which has been hailed as a "great money saving item."

Costing approximately 17p an hour to run, the plug in heater is helping households to reduce their reliance on the central heating by heating just one room at a time - which has helped them to save on their energy bills.

The nifty little heater uses 500W of power and comes complete with a LED display, two heat settings, a thermostatic control and a timer function, which makes it perfect for keeping your preferred set temperature in any room of the home.

Available to buy online now, the Plug in PTC Heater has managed to rack up glowing five star reviews from shoppers who have praised it for being rather powerful, despite its smaller size.

One shopper raved: "We simply love it! It is small powerful and energy low consumption. In only 30 mins if you close the door in the room you can feel the difference of the temperature. It is a great product. We will buy defo one more."

A second praised: "Bit sceptical at first . However i am impressed they are great [little] plug in heaters. I use one in my small kitchen which heats up quickly. My second one heats my landing area. Highly recommend for 17p per hour. Good investment."

A fourth said: "It works! I have a long living/dining area and it warms the whole room!"

Meanwhile, a fifth commented: "Fantastic product in the current economic climate! Was a bit dubious when I first bought it as the price made me think it was too good to be true! But it's really surpassed my expectations and then some! Would definitely recommend!"

The Plug In PTC Heater is priced at £20 and can be purchased from Dunelm stores.
