Already very popular in the US and South Africa, RugBuddy® has now been developed for European markets and meets all safety standards. I had a small fan heater which I hated using because it would make the room too hot and stuffy but minutes after switching it off, it would feel like it had never been on.

I plug it in as soon as I get into the office in the morning and the floor is warm within 30 minutes. Medium size RugBuddy (generously ‘desk-sized’ at 125 x 160cm, 250 Watts) costs just 7.5p per hour* to run The RugBuddy mimics underfloor heating where you are sitting, is hidden out of the way even when in use, and only costs a few pence an hour to run. When we decided to move my office into our summer house, the first question to be answered was: how will I keep it warm?By putting warmth where you need it - under your feet! - RugBuddy is more effective than other electric heaters. This means RugBuddy will keep you warm while consuming less electricity. RugBuddy comes with RCD protection built in as standard, in case of accidental damage to the RugBuddy. Please test this at regular intervals to ensure it is working properly

RugBuddy is a Personal Workspace Heater and your RugBuddy will soon become the best bit of office equipment you’ve ever bought! For example, when you use a RugBuddy electric heater for local area heating, you may find you can comfortably turn down your central heating thermostat by up to 3 degrees. This means you will save on heating bills while also cutting down on draughts caused by hot radiators. Those lovely cool floors are fabulous in the midday heat but can lose some of their appeal out of season, or on chilly evenings.But potential savings can be wiped out by higher domestic heating bills if you don’t plan how you heat your work space. When I arrive in the morning, the temperature in my office is anywhere between zero to five degrees. I turn on my RugBuddy and my oil filled radiator. After 45 minutes the air is at 20 degrees. I turn the radiator off and leave my RugBuddy on for the rest of the day, as that is all I need. This is not only a cost effective way to heat my garden office but it is great to be able to sit at my desk and warm my feet!
