Radiators

I'm looking at redecorating my hallway and looking at slightly larger radiator to replace one that's been there 25+ years.



I cannot see the difference between these two examples at screwfix apart from one is twice the price of the other.



Flomasta 600mm x 1200 @ £59.50

Google AI helpfully suggests that the expensive example is for DIY and the other is trade rated, but only because it's got enough 4 or 5 star review ratings.

The cheap one is at close by stores for collection. Is £60 the Screwfix delivery charge?

Not quite, they sometimes have large reductions on remaining stock which they want to get rid of from shops.

It's dropshipped by the supplier. It might be the extra for the supplier to deliver it to you on a pallet.

However Flomasta is a brand of Kingfisher who own SF (and B&Q) so in this case it's all the same company underneath.

One is for collection only, the other is for delivery only ...
