How to choose
Compare noise in decibels
Noise sets how loud a heater runs: the QQT stays under 30 dB, the DREO runs at 34 dB and the BZGG runs at 40 dB. The Coolfor and Honeywell list quiet operation, so compare them on settings and size instead. Compare decibel figures with room size, since a lower figure suits bedrooms and offices.
Settings, thermostats and timers
Settings set how many heat levels you can choose: the DREO gives 3 modes, the QQT, BZGG and Honeywell give 2 settings each. Thermostats set a target temperature: the DREO sets from 41 to 95 degrees, and the Coolfor and Honeywell have adjustable thermostats. Timers set shut-off time: the Honeywell gives 2, 4 or 8 hour auto-off options. Compare settings with thermostats and timers for your room.
Coverage and placement
Place a heater on a flat surface with clear space around it, and keep the cord out of walkways. The Coolfor weighs 1.45 lb with a carry handle, and the QQT has a hidden handle, so compare weight with handles for moving.
