How to choose

Read coverage as the maker's figure

Four of the picks give a wattage figure: the BZGG draws 1,000 W, the SETEN draws 500 W, the LYNBKLS draws 450 W and the YOUCIDI draws 200 W. The useful number is the coverage each maker gives: 200 sq ft for the BZGG, 100 sq ft for the LYNBKLS, 10 sq.ft for the YOUCIDI and 10 square feet for the SETEN. Compare that figure against your room's floor area before you pick.

Thermostat versus heat settings

A thermostat lets the heater cycle to hold a set temperature, while plain heat settings only pick a power level. The LYNBKLS has an adjustable thermostat from 60 °F to 90 °F, a timer and a remote. The BZGG has 1,000 W on high and 700 W on ECO, the KIDEE has 2 heat settings and the YOUCIDI has 2 speeds.

Placement and cords

Give any space heater clear floor space. Keep cords out of walkways, and use the carry handle on the BZGG, the KIDEE and the SETEN to move the heater between rooms. The LYNBKLS mounts on a wall outlet, and the YOUCIDI cable unplugs for storage.
