Brightown Small Space Heater for Indoor Use - 400W Low Wattage Portable Personal Mini Heater with Tip Over Protection, Low Noise Desk Heater for Office Bedroom Home Use

[PROS]- Good for only warming your own self up, without baking the room- Perfect size and heat output to be deskside, if wanted- Relatively quiet, especially for the price- Low wattage[CONS]- Good for only warming your own self up (not really a *SPACE* heater)- I would not trust the safety on this thing too much- It's so lightweight that it's easy to tip over (safety button should turn it off), and it struggles to fight against the weight of it's own cable, ie, it likes to turn out of position- I would NOT set this on carpet, since it's easy to tip over, and the grille on the front gets darn hotThis itty-bitty electric heater should NOT be thought of a "space" heater, but more of a "me" heater. It's the perfect thing to put under your desk by your feet to give you a cozy, piping-hot draft of air focused on you.This little thing *cannot* realistically warm-up a room well, and that's EXACTLY what I want out of it.Somehow pulling LESS watts than the NVIDIA RTX 4090, this thing still puts out a cozy amount of heat, kinda like a hair dryer on an extra-low setting. I keep it under my desk if I want to warm my whole body, and put it deskside if I want to just warm my torso.DO keep in mind that aside from the alleged thermistor safety mechanism, their idea of safety is a cheap-feeling button on the bottom, so if the unit is tipped over, it no longer turns on. I would NOT trust this thing with much confidence, but since I only ever use it when I'm right in front of it, all works out.

My desk in in a temperature controlled lab space, which is held at 69-70 F 24/7. This doesn't sound too bad, but when I'm sitting, not moving, for long periods of time with the air circulating (like a small breeze) around me then it feels a lot colder sometimes. I bought this heater for under my desk (see image) which is a fairly enclosed space, so I was a little worried that I would constantly have to turn it on and off, since it's only about 1.5 - 2 ft away from my feet at all times, but it works perfectly!Super easy to set up, and it creates this little bubble of warmth right around my legs, like I'm wearing invisible heated leggings! It's also very quiet, you can't hear it at all over the air circulation sounds from the ventilation system at my workplace. If you get up right next to it, the sound it makes is a low pitched hum, similar to the noise of a PC fan (like one other person said) but a little lower pitched.When I put my hand next to it, I can only feel the fan blowing from up to 1 ft away from the front of the fan. This is great for me since I didn't want it to be scalding hot to my legs 2 ft away or to heat up the surrounding desks. But if you have a more open desk (not fully enclosed like mine) then it may not heat up your space as well.It feels extremely safe, as one person said, there's a little peg on the bottom so that it shuts off if it is knocked over. I've been running it for about 10 minutes now, and while my legs are toasty warm, the sides of the heater are cool to the touch. Only the front of the heater gets warm, so I don't have to worry about my desk catching on fire or anything.All in all, this was exactly what I wanted, keeps me nice and warm at work without bothering my neighbors or alerting people who may have something to say about personal heaters being allowed or not allowed (I didn't ask).

I bought this little guy a little over two years ago. My house is old and cannot handle high wattage heaters without blowing a fuse, so this low wattage heater was my option for under my desk. For such a small heater is works pretty well. Definitely keeps my feet and legs warm. It does not work to heat up an entire room but is great for a small space or within close proximity. The safety features are good, if it moves at all it shuts off. You cannot adjust the temperature, it is only off or on. As said I said I have had it for more than two years and it has just started to not work. It blows but the air coming out is not as hot. For $20 I think it was very much worth the investment.

it works great so far and just what I needed. low wattage so it won't trip the breaker. It won't heat a whole room, but a little added warmth when placed close in an old home with subpar heating really helps knock off the chill.

I am using the mini portable orange heater and have been for about a week and a half. I am using it as a room heater and not as a desk heater and it is working. I am able to keep my bedroom warm and above 70 easily when the temperatures drop to around 40 degrees. I will be using this 400-watt mini heater for the winter in our room and will see how it does with different temps. There is a little pressure bullet on the bottom that keeps it on and if it is knocked over it will shut off. It also features a safety overheat shut off. So far I am really fond of it despite the orange color. It is working very well and I think I have finally found a sufficient extremely low wattage heater that will heat a larger area then just personal space. It definitely keeps me personally warm if I use it that way as well. I will update in colder months.----Updated- ---At around 20-30 degrees this heater is able to keep the bedroom at 67-69 degrees steadily even after letting temperatures drop some. So, I am happy with this item and will be continuing to use it. Its small and provides safety elements other little heaters do not.I have used it for several months now and am really happy with the order.This review is for the 400-watt orange Brightown that is almost a square.
