I need advice on what radiator will fit my situation.

Rad is to be Single panel, 600 x 1200 horizontal, White


Rad is to be installed on the side of a hall-way, so the end of the rad is very visible. For that reason, the brackets must hold the rad tight to the wall and the brackets should be unobtrusive.

Your standard rads (e.g. Type 11 from Wickes) have big long ugly brackets that are very visible from the side and do not hold the rad close to the wall.

I would go for a more expensive 'designer' rad (e.g. Moretti Sorrento from Screwfix), but nowhere does it show what these look like from the side or where the brackets are located or how ***bersome they look.

Any advice appreciated. If anyone has a picture of a Moretti Sorrento from the side, even better.
 
the brackets have two spacing

one about 11/2-2" off the wall
one under 1/2" off the wall

most rad these days have these type of brackets
 
I fitted one a few weeks ago. I think it was made by moretti but cant remember.
The brackets were minscule and held it tight to the wall.

4 x tiny brackets fiddly to align. Everything is a trade off and because it was devoid of convectors - the heat output was low for its size.
