Another said: "These heaters are brilliant. I have only used one bar all through the cold spell. It is very cost effective works."
More reviews read: "Very happy with this as it's very economical and gives immediate warmth. Warms the body rather than the room which is what we wanted. Just 5 mins gives a nice boost to body heat that lasts very well if you layer your clothes on a very cold day. Very portable.
"My husband uses it sometimes in his home office if he feels chilly. Taller than most models and replaceable bulbs available."
A fourth added: "Good heater that pumps out lots of heat." A fifth said: "Great fire kicks out masses of heat."
The SupaWarm Deluxe Halogen Heater is currently sold out on the B&Q website, but more stock will become available here.
