Here are our top picks of heaters to use on the patio or inside the house this winter.
When coping with this month's ever-more extreme-feeling winter weather, even bundling up in a comfy blanket and heavy socks may not do the trick: This is where space heaters come in handy. Not only does the compact technology boast adjustable temperature settings which work to warm up spaces, but space heaters can help limit your energy use and save you money in the process.
The other allure of a space heater is its portability. Whether you need to transport a lightweight, indoor device from one room to the next or you need to wheel an outdoor heater to a different corner of the backyard, it's possible, thanks to the more modern styles.
There are currently a ton of space heater options on the market — some budget-friendly, while others are on the pricier side with a whole array of high-tech features. To help you determine which space heaters are really worth the investment, we've scoured the internet in search of the best models for every lifestyle and budget. Our favorites include the Dyson Bladeless Fan & Heater, Vornado Heater and the Lasko Ceramic Space Heater.
