- A great space heater can make the bitter cold of winter bearable, and the Trustech Ceramic Space Heater is our top pick because it's affordable, programmable, and it heats up quickly.
If you don't have central heating, or do but don't want to use all that energy, then a space heater is a great way to ensure you keep nice and warm during those long winter months. Space heaters will keep you warm in your frigid office, that one cold room in your house, or your chilly dorm room.
There are plenty of space heaters to choose from, so you might have to do a little research to find the right one for your needs. Thankfully, we've done the research for you to find the best space heaters you can buy. Here are a few things to keep in mind.
- Room size: You'll want to think about the size of your room. Space heaters can often only do so much, and if you're trying to heat a huge room, you may want to consider buying a larger space heater. Likewise, if you're largely going to use the device in a smaller room, then perhaps save some money and energy and go for a smaller space heater.
- Energy efficient models: Additionally, some space heaters are built specifically to be energy-efficient and buying one of those options means you could save a little money on your monthly energy bill. Plenty of those energy-efficient heaters are high-quality, too, and they will heat your room just as well as any non-energy-efficient heater.
- Portability: While you may not be taking your space heater out of your house often, you may still need to move it from room to room. If that's the case, you'll want to make sure that it's relatively easy to move.
Last but not least, you'll want to consider what the space heater looks like. Sure, that may not be as important as offering heat, but the fact is that a space heater could well become a piece of furniture in your house, and as such, it should be able to fit in with the rest of your furniture reasonably well.
