Space Heater Recommendation

BunSnoop — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 00:13:12 GMT

I have a ceramic oscillating tower heater similar to the below image but I need something that provides better heat. I live in Illinois and need a space heater for our 4-season room. I know Dyson has one for about $300 - does anyone recommend Dyson, or do you have any other suggestions?

I have two Duraflame heaters. Both are infrared and are very efficient. QVC has them on sale. I strongly recommend that if you decide to get them, make sure the heating element is on the top, not on the bottom. Both have the flame effect. I paid under $300 for each of them. They look like furniture. Well made.

@BunSnoop Couldnt agree more with @Whitney400 on using top heater infrared Duraflame heaters. We have 5 fireplace styles, 3 are stovetop designs with beveled glass on 3 sides, 1 smaller cube shape and one 3' wide mantle. All are powerhouses from the smallest to the largest.

Don't think you'd be disappointed.

I prefer the ones that look like a radiator and have oil inside that heats up.

I use a Dyson for heat (and cooling) in my small TV room that has no other type of heat. It works great, I'm satisfied, but it was expensive. I would not recommend buying an expensive item like this, from a shopping channel. Try Lowe's, Rural King, or Tractor Supply.

I recommend the Presto heat dish (I just bought a 2nd one from Costco). They put out great heat and they are very safe. I have bought other space heaters from Amazon. They have about a billion to choose from. Some get crazy high ratings, so you should be able to find many good choices.

I have an Allen infrared heater from Home Depot that I bought abt 3 yrs ago that is very good. Has alot of setting for heat degree, fan speed, and time setting. It is a tower style.

I have a Duraflame but it's an old model where the heater box is in the bottom which I would not buy again . Plan to replace the Duraflame with the new style where heat comes out from the top .

I bought a Dyson for my Daughter from Bed Bath & Beyond and it stopped working just shy of 1 yr . By the time the store opened back up as it was closed during covid for months in Md , it was over the 1 yr . The store said they had changed their warrenty on electronics and would not exchange it for a new one . I contacted Dyson and they accepted it back to repair the machine. They sent me a prepaid shipping label and thankfully I had kept the original box it came in which made it easier to ship back. They sent me it back repaired for free . I wish they had just replaced it for a new one but that's how it is after spending $350. ...

This is on my wish list too . I saw it at Target for $179-$199 but was hoping for a Black Friday or Cyber Monday special , but that didn't happen . I know some items never are discounted .

@BunSnoop I purchased the Dyson cool/heat fan. It has 10 settings and other options. It arrived yesterday and I will open it today. I especially wanted something safe for my cat to be around. I also live in IL and my bathroom does not have a heat/air vent so I need this fan desperately.
