Perfect for Bedroom
This lovely little heater does a perfect job of heating the bedroom. It is very quiet and heats safely with the help of the thermostat. It also looks very stylish in Matt Bkack. Would definitely recommend!

Great Heater.
I did a lot of research on heaters to warm a small room with minimum electricity draw. With plenty of options the dimplex 1.5kwh non oil column heater came with many positives. Performance is really good and makes our kitchen comfortable with the help of the fan. Would recommend this heater as a suitable performer.

At a glance
This 1.5kW oil free column heater is a portable heating option for small to medium rooms, ideal for bedrooms, studies and caravans. Its main strengths are quick warm-up, faster heat spread from the turbo fan, and easy movement on castors with built-in handles. It suits buyers wanting simple everyday warmth at a sensible price, but it is not the best choice for larger open-plan spaces.
What it’s great for
- Quick room warm-up
- Bedroom heating
- Study heating
- Caravan use
- Everyday winter comfort
Where it works best
- Bedroom
- Study
- Small living area
- Caravan
- Small to medium room
Who it’s for
- Renter
- Student
- Caravan owner
- Home office user
- Everyday household
Things to consider
It is best suited to spaces up to 15 square metres, so premium heaters with higher output or more advanced controls may be better for larger rooms or whole-home heating.
Small room suitability
Very suitable - designed for small to medium rooms up to 15 square metres
Energy efficiency score
6/10 - thermostat helps avoid unnecessary constant heating, but no advanced eco mode or timer is specified
Noise level vs category average
5/10 - likely around average for the category because the turbo fan adds airflow noise compared with fan-free column heaters
Safety features score
5/10 - basic thermostat control is included, but no extra safety features such as tip-over protection are specified
Portability rating
8/10 - lightweight oil free construction, integrated handles and castors make it easy to move
Key benefits
- 1.5kW Heating Output: Delivers practical warmth for small to medium rooms and helps take the chill off quickly.
- Oil Free Design: Heats up faster than traditional oil-filled styles and is easier to move when needed.
- Turbo Fan: Pushes warm air out faster than convection alone for quicker comfort.
- Two Heat Settings: Lets you choose a lower or higher heat level to better match room conditions.
- Adjustable Thermostat: Helps maintain your chosen room temperature by cycling the heater on and off.
- Integrated Handles: Makes it easier to carry and reposition the heater around the home or caravan.
- Castor Wheels: Allows smooth movement between rooms without heavy lifting.
- Compact Form Factor: Easier to store when not in use, especially in smaller homes.
Q: Is this heater strong enough for an open-plan living area?
A: No. Dimplex ECR15FA is sized for small to medium rooms and spaces up to 15 square metres. In a large open-plan area it will take longer to warm the space and is better suited to local heating than whole-area coverage.
Q: How much power does this heater use on the highest setting?
A: Dimplex ECR15FA is a 1.5kW heater, so the highest heat setting uses its full rated output while it is actively heating. The thermostat then cycles operation on and off once the room reaches the chosen temperature.
Q: Does the turbo fan make it noisier than a standard column heater?
A: Yes. The turbo fan adds some operating noise because it actively pushes warm air through the room. It is useful when faster heat spread matters, but a convection-only heater is usually the quieter choice for very low-noise use.
Q: Can the thermostat hold a steady bedroom temperature overnight?
A: Yes. Dimplex ECR15FA uses its thermostat to cycle heating on and off and maintain the room near your chosen setting. It suits a bedroom-sized space, but the fan means it will not behave like a silent convection-only heater overnight.
Q: Why choose an oil free column heater instead of oil filled?
A: An oil-free design heats up faster and keeps the unit lighter to move than a traditional oil-filled column heater. The trade-off is that it is aimed at quick, portable room heating rather than the heavier feel and heat retention of oil-filled styles.
Q: Is the Dimplex ECR15FA suitable for a caravan or study?
A: Yes. Dimplex ECR15FA is intended for smaller enclosed spaces such as a study, bedroom or caravan, and its castors and carry handles make it easier to reposition. It is a better fit for compact rooms than several connected spaces at once.
