Duux Threesixty 2 4

People are just starting to get their cold weather gear on: gloves are coming out, scarves are being wrapped, jumpers are being aired and this is just when you’re indoors! The colder weather is slowly creeping up on us and as a result, items like this end up being more sought after. A little electric-powered heater that does the job and does it quickly.

The Threesixty 2 can heat up a space of up to 30 square metres in half the time it takes a conventional heater and it does this by firstly utilising a Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) heating element. This means that the resistance increases significantly with temperature, a kind of inbuilt thermostat if you will. This helps the heater maintain a consistent temperature. Secondly, the way the outlet is designed ensures the heater spreads out the warmth evenly in a 360 degree radius. Certainly something to put in the centre of the room then!

This heater can also be controlled via your mobile phone, using the Duux app. Indeed, there are very minimal buttons on the heater itself, giving it a very clean appearance. And at only just under 22cm tall (about 9”) it’s not really going to be sticking out like a sore thumb. It’s relatively quiet too, hitting 46 dB’s at worst (about the same as a decent fridge) so really can be rather unintrusive. It does come with a ‘tip-over’ feature which makes it automatically turn off if it’s accidentally knocked over as well as a safety switch on the bottom so it can’t be turned on accidentally, both of which significantly reduce the risk of fire or heat damage, especially if you have young ones or pets. Finally, there is overheat protection to really put your mind at rest and with voice control available via Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, it’s quite the neat little package.

An affordable compact electric heater.
  • Small & quiet
  • Lots of safety features built in
  • Good at what it does
  • Plenty of control via the app
  • Even with all the safety features built in, something about not being able to control the temperature on the device itself leaves me a little concerned.
