How to choose
Read noise figures first
Noise figures differ across the picks: the GiveBest runs at or under 45 dB, the Swocky runs under 36 dB and the ciciglow under 40 dB. Check whether the figure covers all modes or only a low mode, since noise can rise with heat output. For the Oprunsy, compare its 3 modes, thermostat and 2-second heat start.
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 Oprunsy and Swocky have adjustable thermostats, while the GiveBest offers Fan, Low and High settings and the ciciglow uses a manual thermostat. When you compare picks, match the control type to how much adjusting you want to do.
Size, weight and placement
Give any space heater clear floor space and plug it straight into a wall outlet rather than an extension cord. Keep the cord out of walkways, and use the ciciglow tilt bracket to aim the airflow where you need it. The ciciglow weighs 1.2 pounds, the Oprunsy 2.43 pounds and the GiveBest 2.8 pounds.
