"Running costs not an issue"Aesthetics are a matter of personal taste, but I think some of the Electrorad ones look quite sleek:I don't know what your friend's budget is, but you can often find hardly-used second-hand ones on eBay etc. once the owners realise how expensive they are to run!N.

She gets allowance for heating as she’s home based worker so she’s not bothered
it more than covers the costs she said1 -

Have a look here at a few - https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/electric-heaters/article/best-electric-heaters/best-electric-heaters-from-our-tests-aeXs65b7VHCm
In the end there really isnt a "best" electric heater. A £200 heater wont be any more efficient than one from Argos or B&Q for £30 although it might look prettier and have better controls
They have different characteristics and it depends whether you want a quick warm up or continuous background heat. They are all 100% efficient and will cost the same to run for the same amount of heat, its just how that heat is delivered which affects how well it suits your requirement.Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers2 -
Haverland Smartwave.
My son has just fitted one of these in an apartment for someone.
Very clever, as it has sensors that track movement in room and habits.
That is, it basically learns when the room is occupied and will adjust the heat ,on , off to suit how the room is used depending on time of day and when you are usually in. It can be altered remotely etc as well.
It was about £550 I think to purchase and is wall mounted.

I bought an Adax Neo Panel Heater for my home office. I have it set on a five day timer, but also use the app on my phone to turn it on/off. It makes my office really toasty and looks good as its quite slimline.
They come in various sizes and I bought the 1400w one.Mortgage 30 Apr'25. est. £211,500k £309,749, Ends Feb'36 Jun'39 (target Feb'31)
Equity: 40.7% (aiming for 40% LTV before remortgaging);
