Reading a lot about heaters, the truth is that I was leaning towards the Norwegian ones, but on one hand their large dimensions and on the other hand the possession of an already functioning Atlantic 2500 watt since 2006 (!) led me to buy another Atlantic heater. Of course, the new model has been technologically upgraded (electronic thermostat, silent) and has been improved aesthetically.
From the use so far, we can mention:
1. Nice Design. Relatively small dimensions (compared to others). Design-wise, its surface is slightly curved (D-shaped) for better heat diffusion in the room.
2. Very good heating performance. Very good heating quality - does not dry the atmosphere. Immediate heating performance. No comparison to air conditioning and clearly better than oil-filled radiators. I have placed it in a unified living room-kitchen area of ​​35 m2, attic, north-facing, with good insulation, for auxiliary heating. I have been impressed that it comfortably covers the space (without being tested yet in extreme conditions) as well as the quality of its heating - a sweet sensation. Of course, it is used in addition to central heating and the space is already relatively warm (so far it easily reaches 22 degrees from 17 degrees in about an hour with an open door to the rest of the house).
3. The feet it comes with fit perfectly and although it does not have wheels, the transportation of the heater is relatively easy because it is relatively light.
4. Its surface heats up but is safe to touch - you don't get burned - unlike central heating radiators.
5. It is completely silent: you cannot hear the thermostat (electronic) and you cannot hear the expansion and contraction of the construction material.
6. During the first operation, I took it out on the balcony and operated it for 20 minutes. It emits a little smoke for 2-3 minutes and a burnt smell, which disappears after a while.
7. Regarding consumption, I cannot speak yet - I have been using it for two weeks - but I believe it depends on many factors (room insulation, air currents, selected operating temperature, initial room temperature, operating hours, etc.). Attention is required for the socket to be installed as it is 2500 W and requires a socket with a 16A fuse. If not available, it is better to choose a model with fewer watts.
8. I also bought an F129 2000W for the workspace, which has all the positives of the F119 with an electronic programmable function. The on/off switch of the F119 is simpler to operate. Also, the F119 has an Eco mode in which the heater operates 3 degrees lower than the selected temperature (comfort mode), saving energy and maintaining the room temperature within "reasonable" limits (the room does not freeze in case of absence or at night or when there is no need for intense heating).
9. The only possible negative thing I noticed is the quality of the device's assembly: the screwing of the two metal panels could have been better (French design and Ukrainian assembly, made in Ukraine). This does not affect the aesthetic presence of the device in the room (it is only visible when looking at it from behind or vertically above) as well as the stability of the device (quite compact).
10. 5-year warranty!
I am thinking of buying more to enhance heating in other rooms.
I will come back when I have information about the consumption and performance of the heating (under different conditions)
