Amazon Basics Ceramic Portable Mini Space Heater for Office Desk, Indoor Use, Fast Heating, Energy Efficient, 500W, With Tip-Over Protection, Lightweight 1.4 lbs, Black, 5.87"D x 3.15"W x 5.95"H

This little heater has been a lifesaver. We are in a rental and need heat in our bathroom and bedroom at times - we aren’t used to the climate. Didn’t want to spend a lot on a product we can’t take with us. The price was right, but it’s also a gem of a heater. Although there is only an on/off button and no different settings for temp, and no cool fan, it’s nice and simple, small enough to fit in small spaces. The heat it puts out is gentle, not a blast of too-hot air. It heats up the room and makes no noise. Sturdy base. Closing the door to the room means a few minutes later you will have a softly warm room. I plan to get more when I return to my permanent home.

I started working from home durning the summer. Set myself up in a little corner of my bedroom since it's quieter than anywhere else throughout the day with people coming and going. TV's/phones/tablets blaring all kinds of things. It's worked really well. HOWEVER, it is now November in Oregon and it never dawned on my that it would be so cold sitting so close to the window. I had one of those tower plug in heaters from years ago when our furnace died in the middle of the winter but it felt like it was blowing cold air on me. I considered hanging a heavy blanket up but that would be ugly. I know myself and that wouldn't have lasted long. I had been looking at little heaters for a few weeks never really coming to a decision but yesterday I was freezing! I'm on Zoom calls all day so I must have looked mental trying to keep my hands warm. I looked at the "cute" ones but reviews were love it or hate it. In the end, no ones going to see it, this one will store easier being a boxy shape. The final decision maker was paying the extra $3 and it was delivered a few hours later. There's a distribution warehouse in my small city and now there's a massive gazillion square foot warehouse about 20 miles away. Not sure if it's up and running yet, not that it matters for this purpose. I plugged it in and there was instant heat. There was a slight smell but that burnt off in a matter of minutes. I've picked it up to move it and the safety switch immediately turned it off. I'm happy with my decision. Like most reviews though, I wish there were temperature setting. Even a low and high would be nice but for the price, I can't complain.

Bought this tiny heater for my little guy in winter. He was not happy about the temperature in our room so we needed a solution and this turned out perfect! It’s not super powerful but for the value, it did exactly what we needed it to! I imagine it would work well under a desk or in a small office.

(Update) I'm warming up to it now having moved it from underneath my desk to another place to the side. I've actually moved it a couple of places around my place and it's kind of becoming my new best friend. I do appreciate the safety feature underneath it that way if it falls forward it won't continue to operate. I do stand by my suggestion that they put graduating heat settings on it rather than just the one setting, but I understand for the price point that's what you're going to get. The biggest suggestion I could make, if they were to create a new model, would be to move where they OFF and ON button is because it's on the back, down at the bottom in the center, so you literally have to turn around the heater which means touching it and getting close to the heat to turn it off. I considered returning it before but it's proving to be useful and for the price point and the energy saving at 500 watts, you can't beat it. But again, this heater will probably get too hot to be placed right by your feet like say you're trying to hide it in an office space. In other words; it puts off a great deal of heat so depending on where you need to place it and whether or not you need it to be discreet and really close, or you're looking for something that puts off more heat that you can use to heat a small space will determine if this is the right heater for you. It is a good little heater that puts off a good amount of heat, and it's relatively quiet. My previous review titled, "One Setting - HOT"... This is a great little 500 watt heater puts off a tremendous amount of heat, so if you wanted to use this for a small space sitting it far away from you, this would be a great heater, and I highly recommend it for that situation. But in close proximity on top of your desk, or under your desk (which is what I needed for my feet because I have a desk placed in a cold corner of my house), you're going to get overwhelmed with heat. The other bad thing is; there's only one very heat setting, AND the button is on the BACK of the heater at the bottom, so you literally have to put your hand all the way around it to turn it around and turn it off. Ergonomically, it would be much better placed on top or on the side for easy access. Having a LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH setting with a more conveniently placed placed ON and OFF button would take this heater from good, to out of this world.

This heater is small and discrete so nobody at work knows that I have it. It has a safety button on the bottom to automatically turn off if it tips over to prevent any fire hazards. A perfect item to purchase especially at any workplace where building maintenance personnel are unreliable on maintaining their AC unit.

My work heater stopped working so I started browsing amazon for a replacement. All of the "nicer" more expensive heaters had not so great reviews but the reviews for this mini space heater were great and the reviews are right! Works great and keeps me warm at work! Definitely worth the $10.

So I love my personal space heaters. I had one like this years ago and I gave it away when I left my office job. I was excited to find this again for sure. What I like......... 1. The size is great, it doesn't take up much space and is nice looking. 2. This is super quiet ALMOST silent so it's not disturbing at all. 3. It does have a safety button underneath to shut it off just incase it tips over. 4. The cord is a generous length 5. The heat is very very hot. I didn't take a temp reading but it's hotter than my bigger ones. 6. Even brand new there is no burning smell while it's running. 7. There is a nice subtle red indicator light on the right side to let you know it's powered on. What I don't care for...... 1. Safety. While it does have the shutoff tip option, the front grill is metal and not plastic like my other heaters. The metal gets HOT and is enough to burn you if it's touched. This is especially bad if children use this. 2. There are not temp settings which means no dial to control anything BUT I understand because it's a cheap heater. Just putting it out there. 3. The power switch is on the back of the unit. This is fine for turning it on but after the front grill is lit up and burning hot you then burn your fingers because you need 2 hands to spin it and shut it off. If the button was on the top it would be fine. 4. Air flow is not very strong being it's only 1 speed but as I said in #5 above the heat is hotter than others I've had so it's a trade off. Recommendation: This is for older teenagers and adults and great for sitting at your keyboard to keep your hands warm. This will not heat up a room. Small children should NOT use this. The front grill is too much of a burn hazard on skin. If you are cold at work in your office this is perfect because no one will see or hear it. You just have to hope you don't pop the breaker from the amp draw. I would buy it again for ME but I won't be getting one for my daughter. It's not meant for kids.

Mighty little beast! This heater warms up a room as well as a much larger space heater I already had. This one, however, doesn’t have the nasty smell when I first turn it on like my other one. This one is cute, quiet and quickly warms me up. It auto-stops when I pick it up to move it, which is a nice safety measure. Great purchase!

Es pequeño, lo uso para calentar mi espacio de trabajo y cumple su cometido, no utiliza mucha luz, no esperes que caliente toda una habitación. Pero para pequeños espacios está bien y me duró todo el invierno. Compré dos opciones diferentes y el otro se quemó rápidamente y esté lo guarde para el próximo invierno. Si lo recomiendo.

Pensé que era más grande ya que no ví las reseñas, Pero si ví que era el más comprando, y ya entiendo porque... Es pequeño pero NO POTENTE!!💨 ✨, Calienta muy rápido, lo pongo en el piso y calienta todo un cuarto, su tamaño no es nada comparado a su potencial al calentar, ME ENCANTÓ ✨

esta bien si es solo para una persona, pero si quieres calentar una habitación aunque sea pequeña, para nada sirve.. aparte lo tienens que tener muy cerca de ti. Para mi esta bien, solo considera que es personal...

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.

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
