compared with generic pressed steel panel radiators, how

The correct name is cast iron sectional radiators.
They have only one advantage; they are very long lived.
They are very heavy, expensive and slow to heat up/ cool down.
Unless you love the appearance!

Nostalgia for schooldays?


Malleable iron nipples?
What kind of a school did you attend?

Family tradition has it, that my late mother-in-law was dismissed from
her wartime factory job for slapping her supervisor, who had asked her
to get a bag of grease nipples from the stores.
