Mirrorstone Air Infrared + Convection Vertical Heating Panel With Thermostat - 1000-1400W

Perfect for our narrow hallway wall, heats up fast and looks so sleek stood there.

I relocated to the UK from Japan for work a few years ago and one thing I have noticed about British homes is how many awkward narrow spaces exist that never seem to have proper heating solutions, this is less common in Japanese apartments where space efficiency is considered very carefully from the initial design stage. My rented flat has a narrow hallway between the front door and living room where standard heaters would never fit properly given the limited wall space available. I researched several options before finding this vertical panel, which seemed like sensible solution given the slim design compared to other heaters I compared it against during my search online. Ordering process through website was straightforward, though I did contact customer service by phone with some questions about installation since I am renting and needed to confirm with my landlord about wall fixings beforehand. The person I spoke with was very helpful explaining the installation requirements clearly so I could pass accurate information to my landlord for his approval. Delivery arrived within stated timeframe, well packaged despite unusual shape of item being shipped. I arranged for handyman to install it once landlord approved, installation took approximately thirty minutes according to what I was told, no particular problems encountered during the process itself. Since having heater installed the hallway feels significantly warmer, no longer immediate cold sensation entering the flat during colder months which was previously quite unpleasant experience coming home after work in winter evenings. I selected 1000w version given relatively small size of the hallway space requiring heating. Dial control is simple to operate, appreciate this as some heating systems in UK properties I have encountered previously involve complicated apps or systems that are difficult to understand without extensive English technical vocabulary, this thermostat requires no such complexity which I find very convenient for daily use. Build quality appears excellent, feels substantial and well constructed compared to cheaper alternatives available in same general category. Overall extremely satisfied with this purchase and would recommend to anyone else living in rented accommodation with similarly narrow awkward spaces requiring effective heating solution without extensive structural modification.

My husband and I run a small bed and breakfast in a converted farmhouse, and one of our guest rooms has always been slightly tricky when it comes to heating because of a narrow section of wall between the window and the en suite door, an area where guests often mentioned feeling a slight draught, particularly in the colder months when we get a lot of walkers passing through the area. We'd tried various solutions over the years without much success, mostly because standard heaters simply couldn't fit in the available space without looking out of place or getting in the way of guests moving between the room and the bathroom. Discovered this vertical panel while researching alternatives specifically designed for narrower spaces, and after measuring carefully it looked like it would be a near perfect fit for that troublesome gap. Ordered a few of these actually, one for the guest room in question and a couple more for other narrow spots around the property that had similar issues, all through the website which made comparing the different wattage options simple enough for our purposes. Delivery arrived within the stated timeframe, all units well packaged and in good condition. Had them all installed by a local electrician friend who does odd jobs for us around the property, he mentioned the vertical shape actually made positioning easier in a few of the trickier spots compared to some of the square panels he's fitted elsewhere for other clients. Went with a mix of 1000w and 1400w depending on the size of each particular room. Since having them installed we've had noticeably positive feedback from guests, several commenting on how warm and comfortable their rooms feel now compared to previous stays, which matters enormously in this business given how much repeat custom relies on those small details that guests remember and mention in reviews of their own. The dial thermostats are simple enough that guests have no trouble adjusting them to their own preference without needing to call down to reception for help, which is exactly what we wanted. Build quality feels robust enough for the kind of regular use a busy bed and breakfast puts furnishings and fittings through. Would highly recommend these to any other B&B or guesthouse owners dealing with similarly awkward narrow spaces in their guest rooms.
