Vornado VHEAT Whole Room Vintage Heater
If you enjoy being surrounded by beautiful things and prefer a mid-century aesthetic, the retro-designed Vornado VHEAT Vintage Whole Room Heater is for you. Of course, it wouldn't be one of top space heaters if it didn't deliver on its promise of heating an entire room. At its highest heat setting, the Vornado was able to boost the temperature in a 15 × 10-foot space by roughly 4 degrees Fahrenheit, which is a fairly typical performance compared to the others. You may guide the hot air to your favorite spot by pivoting the head. At 0.26 kWh, it uses less energy than most of the other heaters.
The VHEAT is exceedingly simple to operate, with only two heat levels regulated by a simple toggle switch. You can also save energy by lowering the numerical thermostat once the room has heated up. It's loud - with a noise level of 59.6 decibels when turned on high, this is one of the loudest space heaters. Its surfaces get warm than room temperature as well, but not to the point of being a burn danger or even uncomfortable to touch. The most significant disadvantage is that it is significantly more expensive than other space heaters with comparable performance. However, if appearances are important to you, this could be the one for you.
