Best Fan Heaters to Bring Warmth to Your House

The strength of the Trustech 2 in 1 Portable Ceramic Space Heater is that it has two modes - warm and cool - that work instantly, allowing you to enjoy a whole-room comfort all year round.

What's more, it doesn't consume energy like crazy. Yielding 1500 W of power and with a tilt feature, the unit can warm a whole room, transferring the heated air to all of its corners, thus, eliminating cold spots and reducing the time you'd need to run it continuously.

We've said that the heater produces instant results, but it's not quite true. You'll need to give it at least three seconds, and it will start to emit the radiant warmth all-around your space, which is still much quicker than many other fan heaters. The unit incorporates the ceramic heating elements which are famed for their ability to produce warmth virtually on demand, reaching the desired temperature in just a few seconds, and the fan activates rapidly to blow heated airflow over the room.

Thanks to all of that, though portable and primarily intended for personal use, the Trustech 2 in 1 Portable Ceramic Space Heater can effectively heat cold offices, bedrooms, nurseries and other mid-sized rooms.

Though we didn't give the Trustech Portable Space Heater Fan the title "Best Pick", it's pretty darn close to it. Encased in a small housing, this unit packs PTC strong power and is able to heat any small to mid-sized area in seconds. Not only that. Just like the model above, this one has an oscillating feature and supports two operation modes, so you can comfortably use it all year round. The only thing where these two models are different, apart from the design, obviously, is that the model above has two fan modes while this one has only one. Not a huge difference, but still.

Pivoting towards design, we really like how the Trustech Portable Space Heater Fan looks. It seems it's been specially designed to seamlessly match any decor without looking weird or obtrusive there. Plus, it's been designed to be very compact. With the size of 6.5" x 5.7" x 9.8" and 4.54 pounds of weight, it will find a place in the smallest of rooms.

When it comes to protection, the model isn't lacking in this department either. You get the tip-over function that automatically shuts the device off in case it's been knocked to prevent fire hazards. There's also overheat protection included. So, it has everything needed to give you peace of mind when your kids or pets are playing around it.

Many people get quite sceptical about using small heaters, often thinking of them as not being effective and potent enough to heat a room. This often can be true of portable models, yet there are also exceptions, and the Optimus H-1322 is one of them. In spite of its overall small dimensions and pretty light weight, this model holds ample heating power and is able to warm a quite spacious room in a short time.

Starting with its settings, the Optimus H-1322 features three modes - the High, Low, and Fan. The Fan setting allows using it without the heat during summer or when you want to circulate warm air once your living space has already been warmed to the desired temperature. The Low setting comes in helpful for maintaining the set temperature while the High setting makes it possible to quickly heat a small to middle-sized room. Featured on the heater is also a handy thermostat. It doesn't make use of any numbers but using it is pretty simple - when the desired temperature is reached, it stops heating and once this temperature goes several degrees under the selected setting, it resumes operation, automatically turning back on.

Turning to the design, the Optimus H-1322 has nothing fancy and looks quite simple overall. It has a white housing with a built-in carry handle and features intuitive controls on the front. You get two separate dials - one is used for the thermostat, another one lets you turn on low, high and fan settings. As for the size of the heater, with 10.5 x 9.2 x 5.5 inches of dimensions and 2.3 pounds of weight, the appliance is very easy to place just about anywhere as well as put on your desk if you need some additional warmth when working at the computer. The heater has a long 6-foot power cable and provides a good reach.

This model is not only super affordable but also it is very performing and can become the only heater you need. Despite measuring just 6.2" x 4.75" x 8.3" and having a footprint no bigger than one AA piece of paper, this portable space heater is able to heat a room very quickly. Plus, because it's so small, storing it away when you don't need to use is super easy since it can seamlessly fit under your couch, bed, in a corner of the room or in your closet. Wherever you put it, you can be sure it won't dominate the place and will look right there.

Speaking of the features, the beauty of this heater is that everything is simple here. Basically, you get the standard set of features including variable temperature settings and heating modes. In order to adjust the settings and choose different modes, the power button serves as a control knob. Also included is an adjustable thermostat that will let you customize the temperature.

When it comes to performance, as we've mentioned, though compact and small, this heater can easily heat up a one-bedroom apartment in a matter of seconds, and it has the perfect size to be used in dorms, offices, and small bedrooms. What's more, as it costs just a bit more than 20 bucks, you could easily get a few of these to place in different rooms and pay much less than you'd have to pay for a space heater or oil-filled model. So, it's a real bargain.

If you need to heat just a small area, there’s no sense to buy an expensive full-size radiator. You can buy a small ceramic space heater and it will get the job done just right. The HOME_CHOICE Small Electric Portable Heater Fan is just one such model in point. While costing a little more than 20 bucks, it can effectively warm small home and office spaces and do it taking very little time.

Just like more costly fan heaters, the HOME_CHOICE Small Electric Portable Heater Fan utilizes advanced ceramic heating elements. They allow it to reach the set temperature faster, provide more effective heating, and make sure that heat doesn't disappear soon. On top of that, it also offers three working modes. You can set it to run at a high heat setting (1500W) if you want quick results, switch to Low (750W) when the room is already warm, or use it as a fan in summer. Besides that, the heater isn't void of safety features. It has a tip-over switch placed on the bottom left that powers it off if it's been tipped or tilted and it is also fitted with overheat system so if it's used for several hours in a row and its parts get too hot, the appliance will automatically shut off to prevent fire.

Of course, the HOME_CHOICE Small Electric Portable Heater Fan isn't perfect (although very few appliances are). One of the complaints some people have regarding this model is that it doesn't produce consistent heat, despite adjustable thermostat that it comes fitted with. That being said, this issue is not common and occurs mostly when you use it in mid-sized rooms. Another thing that is worth mentioning is that it might feel wobbly if you place it on uneven surfaces. So, it's best to find a good spot for it straight away to eliminate unnecessary tilting. Other than that, the heater is very decent, especially considering its tiny size.
