Product Information

We put 23 electric heaters and 43 space heaters to the test in The Lab in Des Moines, Iowa, and in our homes, assessing their heating performance, design, safety features, noise levels, portability, and value. The entire exterior stays cool to the touch, making it a nice option for families with young children.

Infrared heaters, also known as IR heaters, use a quartz heating element to directly warm people and objects, rather than heating up the air like a ceramic heater. Additionally, the unit is quite sturdy thanks to its wheels, making it difficult to overturn in most cases.Overall, this is a great option for those seeking a wall-mounted heater that blows warm air downward. Unlike a convection heater, which warms the air in a room, an infrared heater uses radiation to directly warm people and objects; the feeling is comparable to being warmed by sunlight. The first is quartz infrared, while the second is PTC (positive temperature coefficient) — a self-regulating feature that adjusts based on the room's air temperature. It silently emits infrared heat to create a dry and warm environment with an adjustable thermostat to ensure an optimum level of comfort in your home. The heaters stay relatively cool to the touch, making them a safer choice in households with pets or kids.

LifeSmart LifePro Infrared Tower Space Heater: After putting this heater to the test, we discovered a few flaws. If the heater is the room's primary source of warmth in a room, you’ll want a higher watt rating (closer to 1,500 watts) for bigger rooms. The fan operates quietly, making it an ideal choice for use in an office or other quiet environments. They still use electricity to run, however, and while your bill might be lower, energy use depends on the size of your machine and how much power it uses. Like most of the heaters on our list, this model also has overheating protection and a timer setting.

The heat will slowly begin to dissipate to a certain, predetermined temperature, then switch on and remain on again until the 'set' temperature is regained. You can choose between high or low mode, and a convenient remote control is included for easy operation.
