Amazing small powerful heater!!
I normally don’t write reviews, I was very pleased with cute heater. The heater works amazingly, well for its size. It heats up very quickly and provides consistent warmth without being loud. Perfect for a desk, bedroom, or small space. I love how compact it is while still putting out plenty of heat. Easy to use and feels well made. I would definitely, recommend this to anyone needing a reliable small heater. If the heater is knocked over, it will automatically turn off.

Awesome little space heater
We just had crazy cold weather in South Florida, and I needed some extra warmth. This Amazon space heater is small, very quiet, and turns out a lot of heat. I put it near my desk, but I have so many papers on my desk, so I brought in a little table from the porch to put this on. This space heater has one setting, but it is just right. There is a little white button on the bottom of the unit, so if it tips over, it immediately turns off. The price was right, and delivery fast when you really need it. All the space heaters were sold out at the local stores. I will use this every time we get chilly weather. Highly recommend.

Best bang for your buck ANYWHERE, it would only be shown up if Tesla sold cars for 50 bucks!!!
Warmest and coziest $15 I've ever spent! This thing is incredible, it works perfectly, It's like a hair dryer but 10 times quieter as far as sound goes, It's super portable from room to room (Even though it's great it is still just a tiny heater, and sadly you do in fact have to carry it around with you if you want to stay warm in multiple places). It doesn't have a timer, but I don't think it really needs one. This puppy is consistently pumping the perfect amount of heat regardless of the room size and previous temperature. It's really weird but it's basically perfect at bringing any medium to small size room to room temperature as long as you let the heat stay in just that room by sealing cracks and closing doors of course. Well done Amazon, you knocked my socks clean off with the price to performance you get from this beauty of a mini heater!

Cutest desktop heater!
I am typically freezing in my office & I decided to buy a space heater. This is the perfect size for my desk and my favorite feature is that it turns off whenever you move it or if it tips over which is great to avoid any hazards. There is no temperature control on it, but I think it provides just the right amount of warmth. It does exactly what is says with no hassle. Just flip the switch on and off(after it’s plugged in) that’s it. Easy assemble, functional, and pretty quiet.

Great little heater!
Powerful little heater that works really well in a small area like a cold bathroom. I keep it plugged in, inside a cabinet. About 15 min. before a shower I put it on the tile floor and turn it on. It does the job! Let it cool and put it away. Great for older folks who don't like gadgets, thermostats, digital stuff. Just plug it in and turn it on. Can't beat the price and that little sucker really pumps out the HEAT.

Perfectly good for a $20 simple device, I like it
This heater is perfect for what it is: Pros: - it looks good on my desk in white - it is quiet (but not silent) - puts out enough heat to warm my shed-office in the mornings - it put out heat within a few seconds - the metal surround does not get at all hot - all the heat goes forward - so you can pick it up to move it with no risk of harm - has a simple pressure switch on the bottom to avoid against it running while tipped over - I have it on a power monitoring smart switch which confirms it draws 500W as advertised Cons: - it is only 500W, about like a hair dryer on medium, if you have a large space to heat, have a cold room you want it warm very quickly this isn't for you. I sit it on my desk about two feet from me and run it for an hour before starting work to heat my 6x8 garden shed/office to about 70F. That's maybe $0.05 of electricity where I live. WFM. - its either on or off but given the medium output there's really no need for lower output settings - no thermostat so if you're running it in a tent as suggested in the description you may need to turn it on and off to avoid over heating, for about $20 you can get a adapter with a temperature probe to turn it on and off but then you might want to buy a different unit with it built in. I looked at the 1-star reviews and frankly other than the complaints about it failing (can't comment on reliability, I've had mine a week) they are ridiculous. - yes the front grill gets hot - unless you want something very different and larger there's no avoiding that, it's a heater! - plenty of appliances have two prong plugs and metal cases - if the case is electrically isolated there is no risk if used in accordance with instructions. It's ETL listed. This is not a wet location device nor should it be used in one or with wet hands, read the instructions. Do you use your hairdryer in the bath people? Don't! - the tilt switch is simple and I don't see any risk of it failing, so long as the heater is on a firm surface it is perfectly functional - read the description, this is 500W. It does not draw 15 or 20A to blast you with heat, if you have a large cold room to heat buy an appropriate device with more than 500W output - no it doesn't have a battery, if you want it in a tent you'll need to BYOB but it would need to be a big one - a 3kWh battery will run it continuously for about 6 hours (that should indicate the folly of thinking it would include a battery, it would be massive or last just minutes!)

Exactly what we needed for the RV. Pefect size, features, and safety. I would buy these again.
For a motorhome you can't have powerful space heaters. The Amazon Basics Ceramic Space Heater is perfect & I bought 2 of them. The quietness level is fine and we don't notice it, other than the nice heat. Even new we didn't smell anything. The tip over shut off is a great feature but the heater doesn't need to stay on that long (it works great). It doesn't have a timer but for this small space it's not needed. Unpacking and setup was easy, with true ease of installation, just plug it in and go. The overall quality feels solid for such a compact heater, and the functionality is exactly what I needed: fast, consistent warmth in a small space. For the size and price, this heater delivers outstanding performance.

I recently got the Amazon Basics Ceramic Space Heater, Mini Heater, and we’ve been using it both on our camping trips and in one room in our basement. It really helps with the cold weather, providing quick and consistent warmth wherever we need it. The heater is compact and lightweight, making it easy to move around and set up in different locations. Despite its small size, it heats the space efficiently and keeps the room cozy without using too much power. Overall, this mini heater has been very practical and reliable. Whether we’re camping or just trying to warm up a chilly room at home, it does the job well and makes cold days much more comfortable.

Compre el producto en septiembre del 2024, lo uso casi diario y puedo decir que es un excelente mini calentador. Calienta rápido y es perfecto para espacios pequeños como la oficina. Es compacto, silencioso y fácil de usar. Mantiene una temperatura agradable sin llegar a sofocar. Muy buena compra, lo recomiendo totalmente despues de más de un año de uso.

This heater does not put out a tremendous amount of heat but there again it is small and compact. They said it was not recommended for outdoor use but I got it to put in an insulated shelter for a feral cat and works absolutely perfect.has been running 24/7for a month now in -35 to-15 degrees Celsius. And is the best purchase I could have made. Good roll ever shut down on it in case it gets knocked over which has never happened. It is the Perfect temp and I would not hesitate to buy it again. It is the ideal unit for a small closed or semi enclosed area. Can't beat it for that price. It is sturdy and well insulated. Does not get warm on sides and top. Am very pleased with it knowing it is not a fire Hazzard in any way. Elimited the need for a heated water dish also so it more than paid for itself .Wished I would have bought it sooner.

Gran opción para no pasar frio sin embargo no calienta grandes áreas es mas personal, poner a tus pies en tu escritorio o tu sala, en una mesa al lado de la cama etc pero no calentará una habitacion

When I read the other reviews I was a bit worried, but I didn't need an expensive wild heater. I live in a basement in Toronto which is cold and damp. This little heater was purchased to warm a corner to keep my reptile nice and toasty. Which it does! BUT! It also takes the chill out of the air, and surprisingly, contradictory to other reviews does in fact warm the rest of my room. Nothing drastic but it's clearly a very powerful little heater. I don't run it for long periods of time, and hour or two at a time, so it hasn't died and I can't speak to that but I would never run it for longer than that. There is no temperature control, only hot! If this was under a desk I would imagine your toes would be kept very warm but the heat doesn't go very far, when compared to blasting. Just in general it warms. The smell that people are talking about I also experienced, but the label does warn of that. It isn't anything to worry about, and goes away after a few uses. It does recommend using in a well ventilated area the first time to eliminate headaches. It's a chemical smell, I believe the label said it was from sanitizing the product. The cancer warning.. is because products must include those in the state of California. Unless you were planning on eating the thing, you will be alright. In summation, I love this heater. It keeps my large space a bit warmer, warms smaller spaces well. No heat control but is gets hot! Smell goes away, cancer warning for legal purposes.
