We’ve given a YouTube video below for Challenge 2kW Ceramic Tower Heater which you may find useful, and you can can also find more pictures too using Google. But there are smaller, more portable options, such as those we've tested, that are designed for use indoors. Fan heating solutions are ideal if you are short on space and looking for a compact and stylish design with an easy control that will provide you with direct warmth and extra efficiency.

It has built-in electronic control that you can adjust using the controls or with the remote control for your convenience. For electric heaters with programmable thermostats, we set them to a specific temperature and compare the temperature display on the electric heater to our own temperature monitors to check for any discrepancies.Each type of heater varies in energy efficiency and running costs as well as maximum operating temperatures and additional features such as timers and remote controls.

If you were to try replacing the use of your central heating by putting an electric heater in each room, it will definitely end up costing much more. Whether or not we're paid doesn't change how hot a deal can potentially get - that's only up to hotukdeals members.Some brands are of course well known for delivering exceptional quality, and likewise some are known for poor quality. It emits heat from side to side to ensure the whole room gets cosy and features overheat protection that immediately cuts off the power if the heater is knocked over. Once we’d used the remote to set the temperature in degrees Celsius, the fan kicked in straightaway and then shut off when the room was up to temperature. Here's what Stacey had to say about it: "I couldn't believe the heat from the device as soon as I turned it on, and I only found myself using it for half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening- so it's just 54p a day for me to keep warm at my desk- that's all I need while my large back room can sometimes take a while to heat up with the heating on.

In our tests, we set every heater to run at full blast so you can see the maximum amount it cost to heat our medium-sized test room.

We were impressed by how it dispersed heat into the entire room and by how we didn’t need to be anywhere near it to power it on. Depending on how effective the heater is, it can take anything from 30 minutes to an hour to notably raise the temperature of a medium-sized room. We monitor how much the room temperature changes over the course of an hour using temperature probes. The fan ranges in temperatures from five to 35 degrees, so whether you're too hot, too cold or somewhere in the middle - you can adjust the temperature to your liking quickly and easily.

We liked to whack it up to 2,000W and turn the thermostat up to the max, and found it was more than capable of generating enough heat for a 15sqm home office. While some heaters can be used straight out of the box, others have complicated program and timer settings.

This affordable heater from De'Longhi has two heat settings and a powerful 2400W operation, perfect for warming up your home in a hurry.
