Thoughts on portable electric heaters
-
I like those too. They’re silent and the safest as far as setting nearby things on fire.

No. Very light.

My spouse likes it cool... Thermostat is set at 60, but our living room not infrequently gets into the upper 50s. I want to knit sweaters for our birds. One gets used to it. I do wear fleeces - have a flotilla of them from lightly warm to the point where a couple of them are as warm as a medium weight coat. Winter is easy.
What's challenging are the summer months when my spouse wants to think of our home as a very large refrigerator.

I like our oil-filled heater but it just doesn’t get hot enough.

They are good for small areas. I kept my insulated tack room above freezing in the barn in Maine. We have one near the desk at the gallery (plus several others that blow air) since the rooms in the lower level of our building have no heat. I like that they don’t make noise, and are so much safer than the ones that get red hot. They are easy to move around too. Just don’t get a cheap one. Our cheap one from Walmart quit working after the first winter.
