Why waste money on heat when you can run an ETH mining farm in your house and use the heat byproduct?
That relies on you having those cards or buying them at hugely inflated margins. If the former then that's what I did (although still use space heater for additional heat when needed)
I have an older ceramic heater and it's worked well, but I mainly use an oil filled radiator style heater when I need a little extra heat. They seem to provide a nice even heat in a room. With that said, I bought the Mainstays model in the OP with the intent to use it primarily as a fan for cooling in the summer.
People should stay away from fan space heaters like this one. They're junk. I bought the same one without the Black and Decker branding from Home Depot and the performance was pitiful. Returned it for a ceramic heater. Spend the extra $10 and get a ceramic heater. You'll probably make the difference back on electricity.
BTW the Pelonis looks like the Black and Decker that was on Slickdeals for $23 the other day before it sold out. Just a different remote and color combo.
I don't know that I'd say electric element heaters are junk, necessarily, but I agree that ceramic heaters are objectively superior in that the coils can be comparatively fragile and more prone to failure.
You're not saving anything in electricity, though; electric heat is electric heat, and it's 100% efficient. 1500W is 1500W whether coil or ceramic. The design and quality of the fan can make a difference, however.

Yeah, the fan heaters and oil-filled radiators fill different needs. Radiant heat (the radiator) is great for more consistent and "broad" heating, while the fan heaters are great for directing more intense heat to a particular place. Obviously the design of both can make a difference, but overall, they each have their own best use-case.

I have this exact unit on sale. It is by far the best heater I own, heats the bathroom in no time. The fan function is not bad. It's not strong though.
My only complaint it that it is that it only has two speeds and no temp control.

Don't forget, if set up correctly, it'll pay for itself and the AC it requires to keep it cool too!
