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

We've lived in this house for around eight years now and there's always been one particularly awkward stretch of wall in our narrow entrance hallway that's never had any purpose beyond being somewhere to hang a couple of coats. The hallway itself is quite tight, probably down to how the original Victorian layout was designed, and every heater we ever looked at over the years was simply too wide to fit without sticking out into the walkway and becoming a hazard for guests coming through the front door. When I came across the vertical version of this panel I honestly couldn't believe how perfectly it would solve the problem, the dimensions matched almost exactly what we needed for that narrow section of wall. Ordered it through the website on a Tuesday evening, the whole process took no more than five minutes, and it arrived four days later extremely well packaged with no damage at all despite what must be quite an awkward shaped box to ship. My husband fitted it himself over a Saturday morning, he said the installation itself wasn't particularly different to a standard panel, just required a bit more care with the vertical alignment to make sure it looked straight, which took a little longer than he expected but nothing majorly difficult. We went with the 1400w option given how draughty that hallway can get with the front door opening and closing constantly throughout the day. Since having it installed the transformation has honestly been remarkable, that previously cold, unwelcoming entrance now feels like a proper part of the house rather than somewhere you rush through as quickly as possible. Guests have commented on it more than once, several asking where we got it from because they've got similar narrow spaces in their own homes that they've never known what to do with. The dial thermostat is simple and reliable, no fiddly settings or apps to worry about, just turn it to where you want it. Build quality feels excellent throughout, definitely gives the impression it's built to last, backed up nicely by the lengthy warranty which gave us extra confidence given how much we were spending on this compared to a cheaper conventional heater. Overall this has genuinely solved a problem we'd essentially given up trying to fix, having resigned ourselves to that hallway just being a bit of a cold, awkward space forever. Would wholeheartedly recommend this vertical option to anyone else dealing with a similarly narrow or oddly shaped area that a standard heater simply won't accommodate.

We have quite an awkward narrow landing at the top of the stairs which has never had any heating in it at all, just relied on heat drifting up from downstairs which never really worked especially in the depths of winter. Saw this vertical version and thought it would be perfect given how tight the space is, most heaters just wouldn't fit there without sticking out too far. Ordered online, straightforward process, and it arrived within a few days well packaged. My husband fitted it himself, said it was easier than he expected given the narrower shape actually made it simpler to find a spot between the stud work. Since having it up the landing is so much more comfortable, no more rushing through that bit of the house on the way to bed. Went with the 1400w version given how tall the landing ceiling is, and it heats the space up quickly, within a few minutes you can feel the warmth. The dial is simple to use, no fuss at all. Really pleased we found this, solved a problem we'd honestly given up trying to fix given how few options there seemed to be for such a narrow space. Would definitely recommend to anyone with an awkward gap that a normal heater just won't fit into.

Our cottage has some genuinely strange original features from when it was built a couple of hundred years ago, including a narrow alcove in the living room that was apparently once used for something entirely different but now just sits there as an odd, cold, unused nook that's never had any real purpose since we moved in. We tried various things over the years to make use of that alcove, from shelving to a small table, but heating was never something we considered until I came across this vertical panel while browsing for solutions to the general chilliness of our living room, which despite having a working fireplace still gets properly cold in the depths of winter away from the immediate hearth area. The dimensions of the alcove meant most standard heaters simply wouldn't fit, but this vertical option looked promising after I measured up carefully, so I decided to give it a go. Ordered through the website, the whole process was simple enough, and delivery arrived within the stated timeframe in good condition despite our slightly out of the way rural location which sometimes causes delivery delays with other companies. My husband fitted it into the alcove over a weekend, said the fitting itself wasn't too different to any other panel heater he's put up before, just needed a bit more care given the age and slightly uneven nature of our old cottage walls, which as anyone with an older property knows are rarely perfectly straight or flat. Went with the 1400w version given how large our living room actually is once you account for the high ceilings typical of this style of cottage. Since having it installed that previously wasted, cold alcove is now one of the warmest spots in the room, and it's completely transformed how we use the space in the evenings, no longer huddling right up close to the fireplace to stay warm. The dial thermostat is straightforward and reliable, and the build quality genuinely impressed both of us given how solid and well finished it feels compared to some of the more budget options we looked at before deciding on this one. Overall this has been a brilliant solution to a problem we'd essentially lived with and ignored for years, would highly recommend to anyone with a similarly awkward architectural quirk in an older property.
