Best Personal Heaters in the UK

Despite being so powerful, the model is not too big. Of course, it is slightly bigger than its counterparts on our list (17 x 11.5 x 20.4 cm), but this device is still significantly smaller than average floor heaters. Thus, you should be able to fit it on your desk. Plus, if you need to move it around, there is a convenient handle on top that stays cool to the touch even if the device works for long hours.

The other thing that positively affects the performance of this unit is the 70-degree automatic oscillation feature. Not only does it dissipate the heat around the room when working on the highest setting, but it also helps to keep your whole workplace warm enough so that you can move a bit around it even if you’re using an energy-saving mode.

The manufacturer also took proper care of safety. Since it may be easy to accidentally hit the unit with your arm, there is a tip-over switch. If your heater falls down, it will turn off automatically. What is more, there is an overheat protection. Thus, you don’t have to manually check whether the body gets too hot - when it reaches a dangerously high temperature, the heater will shut off to avoid further damage. This helps to significantly prolong the service life of the appliance.

All in all, the COMLIFE PTC Personal Heater Fan is one of the best personal heaters on the market right now owing to its high power and efficiency.

With the Dimplex personal desk heater, you won’t have to put on extra clothes when going to work in winter. This little appliance will make sure you feel comfortable enough at your workplace even if the temperature outside the window is far below zero and the central heating in your workplace fails. The working power of this device is quite small (250 Watts), however, it still can tackle the job perfectly. It won’t affect your electricity bills too much, yet will still provide you with enough heat. Just place the device at a distance of about one metre, and you will feel the warmth in a few minutes. In addition to this, the heater is fitted with a standby thermostat, allowing you to adjust the temperature. The device is safe to use since it has an automatic cut-out. Plus, like almost all the other high-quality models on the market, this device has overheat protection.

Now, what we're talking about here is a mini ceramic heater with thermostat that is designed for use on tables and desks, so it should probably come as no surprise that the model features exactly 16,6 x 11,5 x 19,5 centimetres in overall dimensions, the sort of size that will allow you to find some space for it on just about any working station. Plus, taking into account the heater's measly weight that adds up to less than 900 grams, you could simply put it in your purse or your backpack and take it with you to your office or bring it back home if you feel so inclined.

Of course, just because the model isn't necessarily the most sizable option out there, doesn't mean that it could get by without some of the things that make a ceramic heater what it is. The adjustable thermostat is there, so you will be able to change the temperature around you using a control dial conveniently located on the front of the model. The overheat protection will make sure that the model will never put you in any kind of danger. Other than that, the tip-over safety switch is also there, which is especially important given how much easier it is to tip this heater over given its shape and size. Finally, the eye-catching ice white colour will prove to be a perfect addition to any office environment.

To paraphrase our earlier point, if you are more or less satisfied with the overall temperature at home or in your office but you still end up feeling a slight discomfort during the coldest of days, Pro Breeze may just be exactly the sort of mini heater that will be able to satisfy your needs.

The other thing that we really like about this appliance is that, unlike many space heaters, it doesn’t make the air way too dry and cause breathing issues, skin and eye itchiness, and so on. You can leave it on for hours, and you won’t have to use a humidifier along with it to normalise the level of humidity.

We also consider this fan heater a great choice for people with kids and pets as it is fitted with all the necessary safety features and comes with an FCC certification. It features overheat protection and a tip-over switch in case the heater falls down. Plus, the body is made of flame-retardant material that doesn’t get extremely hot, so there is a lower risk of burns.

Do note, however, that you can feel a rather strange chemical smell the first time you turn the unit on. Luckily, it disappears relatively quickly, so we don’t consider it a huge downside. Last but not least, despite a relatively small price, this model is pretty robust and was built to last. To back its quality, the manufacturer offers a 1-year warranty.

Wrapping up, if you seek a decent appliance for home or office that is safe, silent, and is able to make you feel warm in a matter of seconds, we highly suggest going with the NEXGADGET Personal Heater. This appliance boasts good durability and won’t cost you a fortune.

The next good thing is that the heater is very lightweight and, hence, easily portable. Thanks to that, if both your home and office get too cold in winter months, you can carry this device in your bag or backpack to work and back home.

Moving on to safety, we believe that this small space heater is actually one of the safest models in its price range. Apart from the standard overheat protection switch, this model also comes with a timer that you can set for up to 12 hours. It will be very handy if you decide to rest on the couch near the working heater and you are not sure if you are going to fall asleep: just set the timer and have your rest. The device will turn off automatically, which helps not only avoid fire hazards but also lowers your electricity bills.

We also want to add a few words about the warranty. From the get-go, you receive a 1-year warranty with your purchase. Plus, you can extend it for one more year after the product registration.

To sum up, even though the Warmlite WL44014N Personal PTC Heater is very budget-friendly, it doesn’t lose in functionality to more advanced expensive models. It is compact, lightweight, and can be adjusted according to your preferences.
