I need to replace two radiators in my flat. The ones which are currently in there are just convection type heaters, which i understand are quite expensive to run.

For people in the know, what you would replace them with? I don’t have exact measurements of the rooms to hand, but they're the bedrooms of the flat...and aren't massive. I'm looking for something which will hopefully last quite a while, rather than just a quick fix. However, because the flat will soon be lived in by a tenant, i dont want it to cost the earth. Some people have told me to just stick a crappy and cheap heater in each room, given that i aren't going to be the one paying the bills...but i'd prefer to do it right.

The radiators must be electric btw, and ideally available from the high street (i.e no internet orders...because i hope to get them in and working this weekend at the latest)

Not very many options.

On-demand electric or night storage basically. Dimplex do some nice slim ones - http://www.dimplex.co.uk/products/domestic_heating/installed_heating/duoheat_radiator/index.htm - can also have remote heating controls which isn't bad.

All pretty expensive to run though.
