Vertical or Standard radiator?

[robbie77]

Hi All,

I have another can of worms query.
I was all set for getting a vertical radiator, probably like most until I saw the price... B & Q and Screw fix do something like I was looking for :


B & Q (web link was huge so left it out )
Vertirad Vertical Panel Radiator Anthracite Grey (H)1800 x (W)595 x (D)66mm
£197.00

Screw Fix


Same size oceanus rad (single)
£200


http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/Designer_Radiators_OceanusRads.jsp?ts=52215

Duplex rads are £300 plus

Both these rads would fit the limited space I have as its a small vertical wall, however so will this:

It's a normal double rad that is 700mm wide and kicks out more heat and is £46!

I was wanting a bit of a feature and realise this is purely cosmetic but was wanting something a bit different.

Mounting a normal rad on its side would probably be a bit naff and my dad suggested mounting two radiators one above another (he was around woodstosck time) for a feature.

Any other ideas or experiences or recommendations or shall I just get my hand in my pocket?!..

Thanks

your last option sounds the best. dip your hands in your pocket.

Yeah I was expecting that!

What about the one radiator on top of another.... the woodstock option is that viable if not ridiculous?
