That's not really effective and they're sold out too. In spring I looked at a good one but didn't buy it because I didn't want to spend so much money. Now of course they're all sold out. I hope I won't be that stupid again next year.

Same here. When looking to buy one during colder weather you look at the price and think: "Nah, that heat wave won't be so bad..." ... and a few months later it IS that bad.

Here it isn't only that bad, it's way worse. Holy shit, I'm dying.

If you're smart you'll wait till off season when they go on sale and snag one up.

Haha, "next year" like this is the last of it. I like your positivity.

They become available again once it gets colder.

Nah nah nah we need to start with passive cooling first, where I'm from houses all have proper shutters that keep the heat out in the summer and the warmth in the winter. I just don't understand why it's not standard in the UK. Oh wait, that might have to do with your windows that open the wrong way round......

All I want is simple really, a 16° bedroom with a 10.5 tog duvet, all year long. What do you mean it's not realistic???
