This budget-friendly electric heater does more than warm your home

The rapid heating function blasts hot air out in seconds - (The Independent)

If you’re looking for cost-effective ways to keep warm this winter, I’ve spotted an excellent deal on our favourite tried-and-tested electric heater. Not only does it warm up the air in your home, but it purifies it, too.

Appliances expert Rachael Penn named it the best electric heater overall, praising its multiple functions. “This does everything you need it to do: it heats up quickly, holds the heat and purifies the air,” she said.

The price of the heater dropped to a record low during Amazon’s Prime Day sale earlier this month and has remained at this price since, but we could see it drop further during Black Friday, which is now just weeks away.

For more ways to stay toasty this winter, we’ve also rounded up the best electric heater deals this month, plus our tried-and-tested pick of the best electric blankets. But if it’s the Dreamland purifying electric heater you’re after, here’s everything you need to know.

Dreamland silent power pure air fan heater

In Rachael’s review of the best electric heaters, this model from Dreamland took the top spot. This was, in part, because of its multifunctionality. Not only does it feature a built-in air purifier, but it also has a cooling function, so it’ll serve you well year-round.

“Perhaps the feature that impressed me the most was the built-in ioniser, which purifies the air as it heats”, said IndyBest reviewer Rachael Penn. “This means it can reduce dust, pollen and other particles in the air, making it ideal for those with allergies.”

It also delivers on heating capability. There’s a rapid heating function, which “works incredibly well, blasting out hot air in seconds”, Rachael said. “It has a programmable timer for one, three and nine hours. It needs to have a time limit set, so you can’t just leave it running indefinitely, which some might find frustrating, but it’s actually a very good safety feature.”

What’s more, it’s very quiet: “It was barely audible even on the highest fan setting, so it’s definitely one you could have on while you’re trying to relax or even sleep,” noted Rachael.
