After the fiasco of the first heater I tested a few weeks ago I was not sure this one would be any better.
However it has worked out perfectly.
Adjustable from 15 degs C. Timer function. Two speed fan. 60 seconds cool down period when put to standby reducing stress on the elements.
Perfect for a small workshop like mine and will save me money over the 1000/2000 watt fan I currently use.
This one is out of stock but just search Amazon for "500 watt ceramic heater" there is plenty on there.

I have got 3 of these I have 1 in every bedroom I put them on about 6 they heat up the room before I go to bed still going strong
Right, I use mine for my bedroom and be toasty 😂.
Ive got one of these off ebay. It took sooooooo long to come from China I actually got my money back after 2 months, The 3rd month is arrived but the listing had been removed by ebay. These heaters simply cannot heat a reasonably size area. They r only 500w and the claims made for it are massively exaggerated
Purchased four of these a couple of months ago. Two are already bad. One melted the plastic around the heating element and out of commission. The other one keeps going off and on. When running, will only heat small closed space, does not heat as the advertising leads you to believe. Definitely cannot recommend these.
I got mine in Lidl marketed as Salter and it is fine and still going strong after 3 winters (cost £12 back then)
They are not recommended in the uk and there should be a total recall and then destroyed. There have been many cases of overheating and causing fires the grill on the front have been known to melt. Don't even consider buying one .
The grill on the front is metal, so a big shock hazard, even more so it is falls off.
For small closed rooms it will suffice (like the toilet), for a living room you need 1000-1500W if you go that way. Cheaper would be a lower power infrared panel heating only yourself and the spot you're in and not the room like these convection heater thingies. Could be used to heat your hands when sitting at the keyboard
I've got a couple, branded Beldray.
I paid £14-99 a piece.
It doesn’t heat up the room and they don’t let me return!
You thought a 500 watt heater would heat an entire room?😳
I have had this type of heater for a few years (there are so many with the same design) for heat in a chilly breakfast room, it does a nice job of heating the room. I noticed a design flaw right away of which I had a solution. When plugged into the wall socket it sticks out from the wall and may fall out of the outlet. I found a solution, I made a leg to support the bottom the right length to rest against the wall below the unit. I used a super tape to attach the leg to the heater and a drawer knob attached for against the wall. I'm sure other people have had this problem, I hope this helps. Let me know what you think
You can save money if you don’t buy this do nothing heater ,it is not UL approved and big fire hazard.
It is an even bigger shock hazard.
I've used mine all winter keeps house at temp once it is up to temp
Can you review solar power bank from B&M shop
the one I bought worked for about a week. today the plugin meted and fell off the wall.it got too hot and the wires melted. not good for long uses . only uses for short times . the heater dont last.the back side on the bottem dont have support and it comes out of the wall socket. needs to be made with a support bar.
Pennies to run. Just lots of them
15 c in a workshop = 59 f that is cold glad I don’t work there blimey he’s potty
Please don’t let Amazon sell these?!?!?!?
I contest the notion that this video will be rubbish! That somehow suggests the others aren’t. 😉
I hope you will be visiting us soon...................................
I used these though it works but take a bit longer than normal heaters. However recently one of my heater which used almost 6 to 7hrs a day start melting internal socket from lower bottom. I can imagine if some one use more than 21 c temp it can cause fire in house. 30 dec 2022 uk electric saftey board recall these products thats why it wont be available on amazon
Have you got details of a product recall?
@@Trevs-Shed Lots of these heaters still on sale at Amazon. Contacted amazon chat, not interested about recall.
@@michaelwarnes3800 Yes, I was looking at them myself. Bloody disgrace. But won't be the first time.
I have ecowarm space heaters and I love mine
You must be wealthy! 😂
I am amazed that these products are still for sale. They are unsafe and illegal! Please stop buying them.
It's no more efficient than a 1000 or 2000 watt unit.
All electric heaters are 100% efficient.
At 500watts it's more efficient on the pockets ❤
@@Andy-kd5or No it's not.
A 500 watt heater will take twice as long to heat a given amount of air, to a certain temperature, as a 1000 watt heater.
Everything else being equal, they will both use the same amount of electricity, to heat the same space, from the same starting temperature, to the same finish temperature.
There crap. You need to sit on it..suppose to heat room up. No it does not. Pure crap......false advertising 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Mine works great saved big money
Agree.... Pure useless and I had mine in a very small room... Sending back to amazon
B and m blaupunkt for 15 quid never skipped a beat❤
Nearly everything from amazon is Chinese cra.....
i bought one exactly it from amazon but its so noixy but a scam review and advert its conving in their video how they the theory plus the video being played dony buy it i cant return mine already used it not efficient at all fake review im frustrated to have believed the convinc visual advert and sales pit on youtube all false statements i gambled my full name here i'm not fake person i deserve chuge compensation from the maker
Everything is a scam nowadays, you can’t believe a word anymore!
These heaters are useless. It's designed to plug in and hang from the outlet. The shape and weight of the heater unplugs itself in a minute or two. Utter garbage.
Hi I agree it isn't the best design but mine is in daily use and doesn't come out of the socket unless I run in to it accidentally.
@@Trevs-Shed Mine FALLS OUT, all by itself after just a few minutes. Yours looks like it has a grounding post on the plug. Mine only has 2 US spades. No grounding post.
If you like yours, God love you. Mine is useless in my home.
@@seansky2721 Right, didn't realise you are in the States. Can't see how it could possibly work in the States or in the EU with just two pins... We do have a thick and long earth pin in the UK. Certainly helps but this is a poor design from that point of view.
The 4 of mine have UK plug , so mine are great , I don't use the remote controls with them , as I say I love mine, also have halogen heaters which are also cheap to run ,
This is junk
The only useful thing from this rubbish video was you told us the wattage. So it really isn’t an efficient heater to buy. If left on for 24 hours would use the same as leaving a 3kw kettle on for 6 hours.
Damn sight more efficient that a 2000 watt heater turning on and off on a poor thermostat, it is saving me money and the workshop is never over heated. Yes, I can do basic math as well.
