CIARRA Smart Dual-Core Ceramic Electric Panel Heater Hardwired – Slim 24/7 Programmable Eco Radiator with WiFi, IP24 Bathroom Safe (1000W / 1500W / 2000W)

CIARRA Smart Dual-Core Ceramic Electric Panel Heater – Slim 24/7 Programmable Eco Radiator with WiFi, IP24 Bathroom Safe (1000W / 1500W / 2000W)

I specifically wanted a heater that could also be used in the bathroom, so the IP24 rating was one of the things I looked at before buying. I also like having Comfort, Eco and anti-frost settings, as they give more flexibility than a basic electric heater. The open-window detection is another thoughtful feature.

I went for the 1500W version for a bedroom and have found the ceramic heating very pleasant. The weekly programming is particularly useful, as I can set different heating periods throughout the week rather than manually turning it on and off. It’s a much more convenient setup for a room that has a fairly regular routine.

What convinced me was the level of control rather than simply having a heater that gets warm. The 24/7 weekly scheduling lets me plan when the heating comes on, while the LCD display and consumption information make the settings easy to keep track of. The design is also simple enough to blend into the room without standing out too much.

The compact design works particularly well in my smaller room. At 9.4cm deep, the heater sits neatly against the wall and leaves the floor clear. I chose the 1000W version for the room, and the combination of wall mounting and programmable heating makes it a much tidier solution than a portable heater.

The WiFi control is probably the most useful feature for me. I can set the heating schedule around my routine rather than leaving the heater running all day. Being able to adjust it from my phone is particularly handy when I’m working from home or coming back in the evening. The slim wall-mounted design is a bonus too, as it doesn’t take up floor space.

Being able to switch it on remotely before getting home from work is really handy. The app is intuitive and connecting it took just two minutes.

This radiator does its job perfectly. The dual-core heating system is really effective — the heat is gentle and steady. Would recommend!

I previously had a convector-type heater to warm my bedroom, and I decided to replace it with this 1500W ceramic radiator, which is much more modern. It’s a bit bulky and fairly heavy, and it gives a sense of quality, especially thanks to the rear fixing panel, which feels solid compared to some other models. Another thing I appreciate is the smooth surface, which is much easier to clean. With my old convector, dust used to get trapped in the grille — not the case here at all. Heating-wise, the warmth feels more even and the air seems less dry than with the convector.

The control panel allows full programming. It has several modes:
• Comfort
• Eco
• Frost protection

You can also set up a custom weekly schedule. It stays stored even during a power cut — only the time needs to be set again, so you don’t have to redo everything. There’s also an energy consumption indicator, plus an open-window detection feature: if the radiator detects a sudden drop in temperature, it automatically switches to frost-protection mode, then returns to normal operation once conditions are back to normal.

This radiator is modern, practical and more comfortable to live with than a standard convector heater, all for a reasonable price.

Excellent product. Efficient and brilliant value for money. Shame there are only two power levels available. The WiFi works perfectly.
