The best Heidenfeld infrared heaters, compared.
Top pick: SOUTHEATIC 3000 W wall heater – Strongest star line in this outdoor set, 4.7 from 11 reviews, at 3000 W and IP65, with a small sample as the limit. Best value: Könighaus Smart Dual 450 W – About £99.90 with feet, a remote, Wi-Fi and a towel rail in the box, on 3.8 from 582 reviews. Updated October 2026.
A search for a Heidenfeld infrared heater on amazon.co.uk does not currently return a buyable Heidenfeld panel. This comparison holds eleven other electric infrared listings from the same shopper journey: outdoor patio radiants, indoor flat panels, and portable halogen or carbon heaters. If you need an original panel with the manufacturer’s ten-year warranty language, confirm the brand field before you pay. In this amazon.co.uk batch that field is never Heidenfeld. How to choose when Heidenfeld stock is scarce is in the [Heidenfeld buying guide](/hub/heating/heidenfeld-infrared-heater/sub/heidenfeld-infrared-heater-buying-guide). A Heidenfeld infrared heater, in the sense of this search, is an electric radiant heater from that German brand: wall and ceiling panels, picture and mirror variants, outdoor IH patio heaters and hybrids. The eleven rows below are other brands in the same journey. They are not a Heidenfeld panel with another badge. Match the printed watts, or the printed square metres, to the space you will occupy in line of sight. A government user-experience report on infrared heating stresses that comfort depends on line of sight. A 450 W is not an open-plan solution.

Question 1 of 2
Where will you use it?
This SOUTHEATIC wall patio heater lists 3000 W at £179.97 with the strongest star line in the outdoor set: 4.7 out of 5 from 11 reviews on amazon.co.uk. The sample is small, so treat the score as promising rather than proven at scale, but the wattage step is real for a cold wall overlooking a garden. IP65 appears in the comparison row, which is the language buyers look for when mounting under partial cover, still not permission to aim radiant heat into a shower zone. Illustrative full-on cost is about 78 p per hour at 26 p/kWh, so pairing it with a timer or remote matters more than on a 1200 W portable. Weight and dimensions on the listing suggest a fixed install you should mount solidly on masonry or a rated bracket. If you need hundreds of UK reviews before trusting a patio mount, compare the 2000 W SOUTHEATIC row with 54 ratings instead.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Large sheltered terrace walls where you want maximum electric radiant watts and can accept a thin review sample
Less suitable: Small balconies on a budget, indoor rooms, or buyers who will not mount a high-wattage heater safely
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The listing states 3000 W.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads outdoor.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing prints IP65. That is sheltered outdoor language, not permission for a shower zone.
The SOUTHEATIC 2000 W wall heater lists at £99.99 with 4.6 out of 5 from 54 reviews on amazon.co.uk and IP65 in the comparison row, with wall or ceiling mount language on the listing. That combination is the balanced outdoor pick when 3000 W feels excessive but Harrier’s IPX4 feels too light for your exposure. At 2000 W continuous, plan on about 52 p per hour at an illustrative 26 p/kWh tariff, the same order as the Harrier stand but in a slimmer fixed bar form. Fifty-four reviews give more confidence than the 3000 W sibling’s eleven, though still far below Warmlite’s indoor tower volume. Mounting on brick or a rated pergola beam keeps the radiant cone where guests sit. Extension leads outdoors remain a bad habit Electrical Safety First warns about. Check the live listing for remote or timer bullets before you assume scheduling features.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Fixed sheltered terrace walls wanting IP65 wording and 2000 W without paying for 3000 W
Less suitable: Indoor bedrooms, totally exposed rain, or renters who cannot mount hardware
Specifications
Common questions

Warmlite’s oscillating carbon tower lists 500 W and 1000 W steps at £56.46 and carries one of the largest review samples here: 4.4 out of 5 from 1,197 ratings on amazon.co.uk. That volume makes it a useful signal for plug-in room heat, but it is not a Heidenfeld panel and it is not line-of-sight patio radiant. Owners typically describe quick warmth in front of the grille while the rest of the room catches up more slowly, which matches how halogen and carbon towers behave compared with a wall panel. The floor-standing format suits a home office or bedroom where drilling is forbidden, though tip-over and clearance rules still apply. At 1000 W on high, illustrative cost is about 26 p per hour at 26 p/kWh if the thermostat never cycles off. Negative themes in similar UK tower reviews mention noisy oscillation, dry air and the unit switching off when moved, so treat it as a directional boost rather than a whole-room replacement for gas central heating.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A dry room where you want immediate directional warmth and can place the tower on the floor away from curtains
Less suitable: Bathrooms, outdoor gazebos, or open-plan spaces you expected a flat panel to heat evenly
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The listing states 1000 W, with 500 W and 1000 W steps described for the oscillating tower.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads indoor.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing does not state an IP rating. A blank is not bathroom or outdoor permission.
Harrier’s rounded patio unit is the cheapest outdoor row in this comparison at £48.99, with 4.4 out of 5 from 342 reviews on amazon.co.uk and a 2000 W headline. Listing bullets mention IPX4, which is splash resistance rather than the IP65 wording on some wall mounts here, so plan for sheltered gazebo use rather than exposed driving rain. The same listing supports stand or wall mounting, which matters if you rent and cannot fix brackets to masonry. At full 2000 W, illustrative running cost is about 52 p per hour at 26 p/kWh, double a 1000 W tower, so timer discipline matters for terrace budgets. Review themes often praise quick warmth under cover and criticise cable length or cosmetic damage in transit. It is the value narrative in the outdoor slice of this table when you accept IPX4 limits compared with the Devola or SOUTHEATIC IP65 rows.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Gazebo or covered terrace seating where you want 2000 W radiant heat without paying triple-digit prices
Less suitable: Fully exposed patios, indoor rooms, or installs that require IP65 and fixed wiring only
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The listing states 2000 W.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads outdoor.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The bullets mention IPX4. That is splash resistance for sheltered outdoor use, not an IP65 claim.
The Devola patio listing is priced at £109.99 with 4.4 out of 5 from 157 reviews on amazon.co.uk and prints 1200 W with IP65 in the comparison row. The title line includes 2000 W, so read the live rating plate before you treat the watts as settled. That IP line is what you would expect for a sheltered terrace mount, but the structured indoor-or-outdoor field reads Indoor, which clashes with the patio-oriented title and bullets. Before you drill, open the live page and check whether the seller still describes outdoor use in the main bullets. At 1200 W full draw, illustrative running cost is about 31 p per hour at 26 p/kWh, so an evening under a gazebo adds up quickly unless a timer cuts hours. Review volume is healthier than the newest SOUTHEATIC wall rows, yet this is still radiant heat you aim at people, not air you circulate through the house. Several UK patio threads complain about short cables and packaging dents rather than failed elements, which fits a mid-price electric radiant. It sits above the Harrier stand in price but below the 3000 W SOUTHEATIC wall unit in this table.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A sheltered wall or pergola where you want IP65 wording and a 1200 W electric radiant with a solid review count
Less suitable: Indoor bedrooms, open gardens without shelter, or anyone who needs a clear outdoor use line in every spec field before purchase
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The comparison row states 1200 W. The title line includes 2000 W, so check the live rating plate.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The structured field reads Indoor. The title and bullets are patio-oriented, so the two lines clash.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing prints IP65.
SOUTHEATIC’s portable patio listing sits at £69.99 with 4.3 out of 5 from 13 reviews and a 1200 W headline. The comparison row prints IP24, which is a lower ingress rating than the IPX4 or IP65 siblings in this table, so treat it as carefully sheltered use and read the live bullets before leaving it unprotected in rain. The compact weight on the listing suits moving between a table and a wall hook, but moving a high-wattage heater while it is hot remains a bad idea. Illustrative running cost at full 1200 W is about 31 p per hour at 26 p/kWh. The review count is still in double digits, so pair the star rating with the longer Harrier or Devola samples if you want a larger crowd of reviews. It fills the gap between a £49 Harrier stand and the triple-digit fixed wall units when you need portability.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Covered dining setups where you want a movable 1200 W radiant between fixed installs
Less suitable: Fully exposed weather, indoor use, or installs that require IP65 proof on the listing
Specifications
Common questions

What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing prints IP24.
SONBION’s quartz halogen unit is the lowest cash outlay in the table at £39.95, rated 4.2 out of 5 from 511 reviews on amazon.co.uk with an 800 W two-step setting. That makes it the budget answer when someone searched Heidenfeld but only needs a small desk zone warmed, not a wall panel with app control. Halogen light and heat are immediate in front of the element, yet the air in the rest of the room changes more slowly, and many UK reviewers note bright glare and dry air compared with oil-filled radiators. There is no IP line for bathroom use and no outdoor rating, so keep it on a stable surface away from soft furnishings. On the high step, illustrative draw is about 21 p per hour at 26 p/kWh if it runs flat out. Quality-control complaints appear in the class at this price, so inspect the guard and tip-over switch on arrival.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Tight budgets for a single occupied spot in a dry room
Less suitable: Whole-room panel heat, bathrooms, outdoor dining, or anyone sensitive to halogen glare
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The listing states 800 W, with two settings.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads indoor.

The listing does not state an IP rating. A blank is not bathroom or outdoor permission.
The 800 W Smart Dual is listed at £169.90 with 4.1 out of 5 from 159 reviews on amazon.co.uk. The spec table gives 800 W, 90 × 90 × 1.3 cm and 9 kg, with the same feet, remote, Wi-Fi, towel holder and IP44 bundle as the 450 W Smart Dual. The final bullet still mentions mounting the 450 W panel, which conflicts with the 800 W spec line. No square-metre figure is printed, and one review on the listing says 800 W suited only a small room while the panel felt large for that output. It shares a listing image with a 600 W Smart Dual in the source data even though the dimensions differ, so check the spec table on the live page before you assume size. The maximum temperature setting is 70 °C. It delivers more watts than the 450 W Smart Dual, and electricity still costs about four times gas for the same energy, per the Energy Saving Trust. Pick it when you want the higher Smart Dual wattage with the app and rail. Step down to the 450 W if a smaller face and a lower price cover the same spot.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A larger occupied room where you want the higher Smart Dual wattage with app control and you accept an upper-band price
Less suitable: Small desk-sized spots the 450 W already covers, or budgets capped near £100
Specifications
Common questions
What power does the spec table give?
800 W, 90 × 90 × 1.3 cm and 9 kg. The last bullet still says to mount the 450 W infrared panel.
Can it stand on the floor?
The listing includes stand feet and a wall mounting system. A towel holder, a remote and a Wi-Fi app are also in the bullets.
Is coverage stated?
No square metres are printed. The maximum temperature setting is 70 °C. IP44 is printed.
Across 582 amazon.co.uk reviews, the 450 W Smart Dual sits at 3.8 out of 5. Reviewers who park it under a desk or on one floor say the spot warms within a couple of minutes, but several warn it is not for large or open-plan rooms. At £99.90 it is the cheapest panel in this set, and the carton already includes feet, a remote, Wi-Fi schedules and a towel rail, which is why it is the best value here. The listing prints IP44 and names the bathroom among room types; that line is not a wiring diagram. The maximum temperature setting on the spec table is 40 °C, lower than the 70 °C line on the 800 W Smart Dual. Owners often call the surface too hot to touch, including the back, and some treat the thermostat or app reading as unreliable for the whole room. One review describes a delivery without instructions, feet or the remote. For one occupied small spot you can stand on the floor, it matches what UK reviewers describe. For heating a big cold room or replacing gas central heating, the wattage and the mixed star line are the limit.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A desk, home-office corner or small occupied room where you want feet, an app and a towel rail without buying a separate thermostat
Less suitable: Open-plan living space, whole-house heat, or anyone who needs a printed m² range before they drill or stand the panel
Specifications
Common questions
What does the listing say is in the box?
A remote, stand feet, a wall mounting system, fixing accessories and a towel rail. One review says a delivery arrived without instructions, feet and the remote.
Does the listing state an IP rating?
Yes. It prints IP44. Bathroom is among the rooms named in the bullets. There is no zone diagram on the listing.
What heat output and coverage are stated?
Heat output is 450 W. The maximum temperature setting is 40 °C. Square-metre coverage is not stated.
Byekalt’s 1000 W panel-style listing is priced at £139.99 with 3.8 out of 5 from only eight reviews on amazon.co.uk, a thin panel sample beside Hocosyme’s missing star line. The title mentions thermostat control and a TÜV line, which is a manufacturer test mark rather than a UK comparative test or a Part P wiring certificate. Dimensions on the listing describe a tall slim panel suited to wall fixing in a dry room, not a bathroom zone decision without an electrician. At 1000 W full output, illustrative cost is about 26 p per hour at 26 p/kWh. Without a printed square-metre band in the extract, treat coverage as line-of-sight top-up heat only. If you need a larger UK review file before spending panel money, compare the Könighaus Smart Dual rows.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Dry-room wall mounting when you want a 1000 W panel and accept a tiny review sample
Less suitable: Bathroom zones without fixed wiring, shoppers who need a Heidenfeld badge, or buyers who need hundreds of UK reviews first
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The listing states 1000 W.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads indoor.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing does not state an IP rating. A blank is not bathroom or outdoor permission.
Hocosyme’s ceiling-mounted infrared listing shows £149.99 in this comparison but no amazon.co.uk star line or review count in the listing extract, so the score stays at the bottom of the scale until live ratings appear. The bullets name 1000 W with a 10–25 m² marketing band and IP54, which is more ingress protection than many indoor panels here yet still not a shortcut past BS 7671 bathroom zones for a plug-in lead. At 17.2 kg in the dimension row, ceiling fixing needs solid joists or a rated track, not a plasterboard toggle alone. The comparison mount field says wall, while the title says ceiling, so confirm the fix before you drill. If heat output on the live page disagrees with the 1000 W note, photograph the rating plate first. Compared with a Könighaus Smart Dual, you trade app and towel-rail extras for a ceiling-first layout. Treat this row as specification-led shopping until UK reviews accumulate.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Rooms where ceiling radiant suits the furniture layout and you can verify watts on the live listing before install
Less suitable: Shoppers who rely on star lines, renters who cannot fix to structure, or bathroom installs without an electrician
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing state?
The bullets name 1000 W and a 10–25 m² band. Check the rating plate on the live listing before you drill.
Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
The listing field reads indoor. The title says ceiling-mounted and the mount field says wall.
What IP rating appears on the listing?
The listing prints IP54. That is not a bathroom zone approval.
Eleven amazon.co.uk electric infrared listings are kept. No Heidenfeld HF-HP panel is in the table. There is no lab test. The score blends the amazon.co.uk star line, the size of the review sample, whether watts, use and IP agree across the listing, and how well the row fits a patio, a panel or a portable job. Weights sum to 100. The top pick is the strongest outdoor star line. Best value is the panel that includes feet, a remote, Wi-Fi and a towel rail at the mid price.
Star line
40%Up to 40 points from the amazon.co.uk rating divided by five. A missing star line scores nothing on this part and pulls the row to the bottom of the table.
Review sample
20%Up to 20 points for the number of amazon.co.uk reviews. Under 20 reviews scores low. 100 to 499 scores higher. 500 or more scores the full part. A tiny sample on a high star line is marked down.
Listing trust
25%Up to 25 points when use, watts and IP agree across the row. An indoor/outdoor clash is marked down. A missing heat output on a panel row is marked down.
Fit for the job
15%Up to 15 points for a named outdoor IP rating, a panel with a thermostat or app in the box line, a stated coverage band, and a towel rail or feet in the carton.
A Heidenfeld infrared heater search on amazon.co.uk currently lands on other brands. Decide the job first: sheltered patio, a small indoor panel, or a portable halogen or carbon tower. Then read watts, IP, the controls actually in the box, and the size of the review sample. This is not a lab test, and a seller sentence about a bathroom is not a zone approval.
A Heidenfeld infrared heater, in the sense of this search, is an electric radiant heater from that German brand: wall and ceiling panels, picture and mirror variants, outdoor IH patio heaters and hybrids. On amazon.co.uk at research time the only Heidenfeld-branded infrared listing was the IH100 tripod heater, ASIN B0BGXVCRC2, and it was unavailable. The eleven rows below are other brands in the same journey. They are alternatives and specification references.
This amazon.co.uk batch has no Heidenfeld-branded panel in the table. The IH100 reference listing was unavailable. Check the brand field before you pay.
IP65 on a patio listing is sheltered outdoor use. IP44 or IP54 on a panel is not a zone diagram. Fixed bathroom wiring in England and Wales is Part P work.
The same watts cost the same on the unit rate. Infrared is not shown here as cheaper than gas central heating. A thermostat shortens hours. It does not change the draw while the element is on.
Start with the product type. A glowing patio heater, a flat indoor panel and an oscillating carbon tower do not do the same job. Outdoor rows here are Harrier, Devola and the three SOUTHEATIC listings. Indoor panels are the two Könighaus Smart Dual models, Byekalt and Hocosyme. Portable indoor heat is Warmlite and SONBION. Then match watts to the space you occupy in line of sight. The government user-experience work on infrared stresses that comfort limit.
Controls have to be in the box line, not assumed from the category. The Könighaus Smart Dual listings claim a thermostat, a remote and Wi-Fi, plus feet and a towel rail. Several SOUTHEATIC comparison rows leave controls unstated, so check the live bullets before you assume a remote or a timer. SONBION and Warmlite are simpler two-step heat. Outdoor units rarely include a room thermostat suited to a bathroom zone.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want a patio radiant between about £50 and £110 and you can keep it under cover. The Harrier 2000 W at about £48.99 has IPX4 in the bullets, stand or wall mounting, and 4.4 from 342 reviews. IPX4 is splash resistance, not an IP65 claim, and it is not an indoor heater.
You want plug-in heat for one dry room and you may not be allowed to drill. The Warmlite oscillating carbon tower at about £56.46 stands on the floor at 500 W or 1000 W, with 4.4 from 1,197 reviews. It has no IP rating, so it stays out of bathrooms and off the patio.
You searched Heidenfeld and will accept another panel while HF-HP stock is not on amazon.co.uk. The Könighaus Smart Dual 450 W at about £99.90 includes feet, a remote, Wi-Fi and a towel rail, with 3.8 from 582 reviews. It is not a Heidenfeld original, and it is not an open-plan heater.
This page does not compare buyable Heidenfeld panels. The IH100 was unavailable on amazon.co.uk, so the table holds eleven other electric infrared listings. The top pick for a large sheltered terrace wall is the SOUTHEATIC 3000 W at about £179.97, on 4.7 from 11 reviews, with the limit that the sample is small and the hourly draw is the highest here. Best value for one occupied indoor spot is the Könighaus Smart Dual 450 W at about £99.90, because the carton includes feet, a remote, Wi-Fi and a towel rail, against a mixed 3.8 from 582 reviews. Skip a patio unit for a bedroom, and skip an IP line as bathroom permission.
