Amazon Basics Portable Ceramic Space Heater, Small Electric Heater for Indoor Use With 3 Heat Settings, Temperature Control, Lightweight (1.7 LBS), 520 w, Black, 5.1"L x 3.5"W x 7"H

I've bought 2 of these Amazon Basics Ceramic Space Heater, Electric Heater for Indoor Use With 3 Heat Settings, Temperature Control, Lightweight (1.7 LBS), 520 w, Black, 5.1"L x 3.5"W x 7"H. WHY I ORDERED THIS: - I needed a new small heater for under my home office desk in a very chilly room. - My older 200 Watt heater just was not giving me enough heat for this winter. - When I saw this 500 Watt Heater on sale, I decided to buy it. THE GOOD STUFF ABOUT THIS: - I am so glad I bought this 500 Watt Heater as it is perfect size for under my desk. - It give off plenty of heat to keep my feet and legs warm. - I love that even though there is no thermostat, you can select a lower Wattage use if you want. - I really appreciate that the controls are on the top of the heater so it is pretty easy to reach them. - I also love that there are red indicator lights that show if it is on fan or heat mode, and if it's set at Hi, Med or Low. THE NOT SO GOOD STUFF ABOUT THIS: - Wish this did have a thermostat, but it's not a deal breaker for me. - I also wish that the little red indicator lights were just a bit larger, as they are hard to see unless it's quite dark. CONCLUSION: - I love and enjoy using this little Amazon Basics Electric Ceramic Space Heater for use under my office desk. - While it was still on sale at around $13, I actually bought a spare one because i love it so much!

Quite, delivers good amount of heat especially in close proximity. Did not raise my electricity bill significantly.

Interesting little heater. I bought this for under-desk use to keep my feet warm. Adjustable louvers would be nice to direct airflow down toward one's feet if desired. Very quiet. The fan is almost inaudible at LOW in a quiet room, and only very slightly louder at MED. At HIGH, it can be heard, but just; it's by no means loud. It would in no way interfere with conversation or phone use. Regardless of fan speed, the power draw is always the same, at approx. ~520 watts, + or - a few watts depending on fan speed. I checked amp draw with a clamp meter. It draws ~3.9A at LOW fan speed, 4.03A at MED fan speed, and ~4.13A at HIGH fan speed, the difference being only the current consumed by the fan. So basically, it's always drawing very slightly less than its rated ~520 watts for the heating element. Don't expect this to warm a large 20x20 room; perhaps a bathroom is more likely. It's fine and quiet for an under-desk feet heater.

This heater maybe small it it puts out like a larger heater. Heats well.

I thought it was a very affordable and effective space heater

I was looking forward to this heater based on the reviews, but before purchasing, what you need to know is that this thing is absolutely tiny, and doesn't carry much punch when it comes to heating. Your money would be better spent on a bigger, more powerful heater, because this one really won't do much for you.

This started out as a great little heater and put out a lot of heat for a small room, but it only lasted one season. The second season I try to use it the amount of heat it put out was substantially less, and it seems like it's on it's dying leg. I would not buy it again.

This is a really good little heater for a small space. It's not loud at all, and puts out a good amount of heat. I've been using it in my bathroom, which gets very chilly in the cold months. It's been so nice not freezing when I get out of the shower. The safety feature of it turning off when tipped over works great. It's small and light so it's really easy to move around. Although it's small and light, it doesn't feel cheap and flimsy. One of the things I really appreciate is that the front doesn't get really hot. So many little portable heaters get so hot, and this one doesn't.

Agréablement surprise de la chaleur fournie par ce petit appareil. Permet de chauffer rapidement un petit espace tel une minivan.

Good and Portable but it stopped working after few hours and the after half an hour sometimes even just few minutes after automatically starts working again! Kind its kinda cute and goods for office desk corners.

Produces a lot of heat. Nice a small for the floor or on a table/desk.

Good for small are

Bought two of these to heat a storage shed to prevent freezing in the cold weather. They were to be turned on and off by a temperature controlled outlet. However when the power to these heaters is turned on, they go to standby mode until they are turned on with the power button. They seemed well built and produced enough heat but not suitable for a remote location. Had to return them.
