don't have them as yes they do block some of the heat. Same as putting anything in front of a radiator will.

See, I just don't get radiator covers. They do block out the heat from the room and we all know there's a radiator there hiding it's ugliness under the pretty cover. Sorry, but my tip would have to be don't bother

They do a bit. I have one in the hallway, but only because it was a really ugly radiator and it was the first thing you saw coming in the front door.
