De’Longhi has hot heater deals at ALDI, but its no-name heater gets hotter

Aldi will have two cheap De’Longhi heaters up for grabs later this month, but it's no-name circulating heater is the cheapest and most powerful.

The supermarket’s Special Buys on Saturday April 27th include the De’Longhi Ceramic Capsule Heater, a De’Longhi Ceramic Tower Heater, and a generic Compact Circulating Heater. While information on Aldi’s website is limited for the two De’Longhi products, the Compact Fan Heater is an Amazon favourite available directly from De’Longhi and participating retailers, while the Ceramic Tower Heater looks to be a device the manufacturer wheels out for offers like this. This particular model isn’t listed on the De’Longhi Australia website, but it does look identical to a Ceramic Tower Heater that is sold exclusively at Lowe’s in the USA.

Here are how the three Aldi heaters compare;

Both the Ceramic Capsule Heater, and Compact Fan Heater are relatively no frills devices. They have the basic safety features (tip over switch, and thermal shut off), and a simple rotating crank to operate the heater, but the brandless Compact Fan Heater packs more power and therefore generates more heat. The 2000W heater has two functions, either warm (1900W) or hot (2000W), both that will cover a larger space than either of the De’Longhi heaters available during these Special Buys. That also means that it will be more expensive to run over winter, so you'll need to pick your priorities.

The Ceramic Tower Heater on the other hand is the least powerful, but has the most bells and whistles. It has a remote control, a digital thermostat, a 24-hour timer, and a fan function so it can be used in Summer without the heating elements. 

Limited stock of these heaters will be available from Aldi stores across the country from Saturday April 27th.
