The Honeywell HCE200W UberHeat Ceramic Heater is a handsome space heating unit that resembles an old-fashioned wind up alarm and radiates heat like nobody’s business.

It’s also affordable and well-built.

The Lasko Air Logic Bladeless Space Heater has been designed with modern technology to dissipate heat uniformly and quickly over wider spaces. A unique feature of this space heater is the inclusion of heat channels that provide continuous projection that is made possible with a combination of ceramic heat and ambient air.

The Lasko Bladeless space heater is also backed by patented blower technology and widespread oscillation which means it can heat up a room or area of 400 square feet in two hours. It is great for use in the bedroom or children’s room as it operates with a low noise output. Additional features include an automatic shut-off feature and a tip-over switch that work together to enhance safety. Overall, this space heater is safe for the home environment with an extremely cool surface and no visible element. The heat settings can also be toggled between high and low.

Space heaters with programmable thermostats have a leg up on those without them. The thermostat allows you to run the indoor heater in a more energy-efficient way.

There’s the usual suspects when it comes to safety in the auto overheat shut-off and tip over protection and the unit is covered by a limited 3 year warranty.

But there’s no doubt the system is more effective than your average electric heater. Be sure to also check out our list of the best outdoor heater for more great items like this.

One of the first space heaters made by the Lasko company, the Lasko Ceramic Tower Space Heater is a powerful unit which offers a fiberglass design and built-in handle for the easy flow of air. Designed as an elongated space heater with a self-regulating ceramic element, it produces 1,500-watts of power to provide heat in an oscillating motion, which covers an area of up to 300 square feet. An exciting feature of this space heater is an LCD display screen which reveals the unit’s status.

What’s more, the thermostat of the Lasko Tower space heater is programmable which means you can set the heater to give you the desired temperature. It has an automatic heating mode which estimates the amount of energy needed to heat the room; once the desired temperature has been reached, the space heater then shuts down. The automatic heating mode also prevents the device from overheating and with the inclusion of an oscillating fan, hot air is equally distributed around the room. The heater comes with remote control for easier managing of the control functions such as the oscillation and timer.

The high mode gives you all 1500 watts of power and the low mode gives you 1000 watts. It has an integrated carrying handle and is designed with a low center of gravity to stop it from tipping over.
