Electric radiators v oil filled radiators. Which would buyers prefer?

Planning to sell a one bed flat next year that has no gas. Current storage heaters are old and ugly so planning to replace with electric radiators or oil filled radiators. Have no experience of either and wonder what buyers might prefer. Any thoughts?

Oil.

The last house we renovated for resale we replaced storage heaters with electric radiators upstairs to save space, and oil filled nice Victorian metal style (but electric) downstairs. The Victorian oil filled looked really nice and the electric radiators upstairs took up less space… but neither heated as well or as economically as the clunky storage heaters!

Quantum storage heaters are better and worth a look.

Oil filled.
I changed our old convectors for Dimplex q-rads (still convectors) a couple of years ago, but would have bought these Creda oil filled ones if they'd been around then.
You don't get that burning dust smell with oil filled and they're a bit safer.
