Product Description

Product Description

The innovative and exclusive design of the Vento VV551225 from De'Longhi provides both high performance and exceptional value for money. It features the "Venturi Effect", in which an internal chimney-like structure increases convective air flow. This means that the air produced is hotter (by up to 10 degrees centigrade) and ejects up to 40% faster. The main body of the radiator is encased in a surrounding second outer shell, creating a chimney-like space in between the two. Air is drawn in at the bottom, heated by the main radiant heat of the radiator and then expelled at the top. This convective effect increases the speed at which the room is heated, in addition to the radiant heat produced.

With 2.5 kW of heat output, the Vento is perfect for larger rooms or for boosting existing heat sources around the home. It has three variable heat settings and an adjustable room thermostat to set and maintain the desired temperature, as well as an anti-frost function and an overheat safety protection feature. The VV551225 comes with wide-span castors and an integrated carry handle for easy transport. Also included is a three-year guarantee.

Great Heater 27 Nov 2010
By Mike J VINE™ VOICE
Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
This is apparently a more advanced type of heating system with Venturi effect ducts (like they have on F1 cars) that heats quicker and gets hotter... well I don't know about all that, but it certainly works very well.

I have it at work next to my desk and it keeps me nice and warm without me having to be right on top of it. It gets hot in about five minutes and stays hot all day, using the built in thermostat to turn on and off as needed, saving electric.

The unit has three heat levels and I leave it on the lowest setting and it still gets too hot to touch. You might want to think about how it's placed if you have kids or pets... it does get hot.

The unit weighs around 17Kg which is quite heavy, but it does come fitted with little wheels which work well, the wheels also fold away under the unit, for storage I assume. There is a fairly chunky power lead about a meter long which can be wrapped around a winder on the unit when not in use.

A great heater, but I have deducted one star because I think it is a little ugly, but functionally, it's fantastic.

Great heater 23 Nov 2010
By Cambridge Ian VINE™ VOICE
Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Got this to heat up my office.

It's a great looking item, although a little on the large and heavy size - helped by being on castors.

Heats quickly, has a thermostat with a 5* c anti frost setting, 3 heat settings and works really well.

If you want an electric oil radiator then this one would bd hard to beat.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
This Delonghi VV551225 Vento Oil Filled Radiator, hereafter referred to as the Vento, is a well-made product that performs as advertised.

The product description boasts of a 'venturi effect' to accelerate air flow through the heater. Much as I hate to admit it, in a side-by-side test with another oil-filled radiator of the same wattage my hand could indeed detect an apparently greater flow of warm air from the Vento. Nothing like the blast from a fan-heater, of course, but the Vento fulfills a different function.

Construction seems solid enough, although the Vento is not as heavy as other (much older) oil-filled radiators we have used. There is a three-year guarantee, but I would be amazed to need it. It is stable on its fold-out castors, it looks smart and has a neutral colour that will fit in any room, so anyone with a heating system to supplement through the cold months could well find it a very good choice. It lacks a timer, but as those things tend to tick and whir only too audibly in the dead of night I view that as a good thing.

My only negative point is that on heat setting #3, which is the highest, the smell of hot heating element is far too noticeable. I assume this odour will vanish quickly with use, but if not I shall be back to dock a star off my rating.
