Sometimes its better to spend a little more and get products that are more fuel economical which saves money over the long run.

I’ll have to check out the scores of all those tested because I intended to go buy a new heater this weekend and I most likely would have gotten it from Kmart! Lucky I saw this

I only buy well known brands of electric products. Sounds like it would be a waste of money because it wouldn’t produce much heat which would mean you’d use more electricity having it run for longer.

Kmart appliance really aren’t the best.
Ive ended up spending a tad extra at Bunnings for a heater and it works really well, so much variety to suit everyone’s budget too.
Their return/fault policy is amazing

Kmart’s things are mostly bad quality unless you are buying branded items like Lego.

I love Kmart, and do own a few of their electrical products but I would never purchase a heater from there. Ill be sharing this review win the hope that it will save people money.

There’s a lot of things I love from Kmart, but I stay away from electrical appliances.

Good to know. Wouldn’t have bought such an item from Kmart, but well worth being informed.

Thsnks good to know

Thanks for sharing.

I don’t find this surprising. I bought a kettle recently from Kmart. It is so loud that we have to pause the DVD player in the adjacent lounge room as we can’t hear the TV over it.

  Wow! That must be loud!

I am not a fan of buying any electrics from Kmart

I would never entertain small heaters of any sort – a large heater that heats many rooms at once is the way to go these days – preferably gas as it’s slightly cheaper but far more efficient.

Oh no that’s bad

$55 for a door stop, oh dear. Won’t be investing in one of those.

But the Noirot was way more expensive to run, so not much help here.

I hope people are aware that if you have a house fire and you have a oil filled heater all insurance companies have an exclusion on insurance policies even if it isn’t the initial cause because they will explode.

  Wow how many people don’t know that, thanks for sharing.

We bought these heaters for our kids rooms and they are terrible! Forget about the poor heating. the loud cracking and clanking sounds they make are ridiculously loud so much so that our kids refused to keep them in their rooms after one night. Complete wast of money ????

Thanks for the information on the heater.

Won’t bother with this heater then.
