I ordered the last deal with manual controls for $25. The heater came fast in the mail and had a small dent on the front panel when I opened the box. I contacted the company and they said it was most likely damaged in shipping, but the box visibly had no damage. In any case, the refunded my money and let me keep the heater. I haven't used it much but it heats fine. I prefer the manual control heaters/fans so I can control them with smart plugs.

Can someone explain the advantage of an oil-filled radiator vs a traditional electric heater or radiator? Are they any more energy efficient?

Bought it with Paypal, surprisingly, they didn't tax it.

Put a $16 dollar Walmart box fan next to any oil filled heater (sideways, wind easily passing unobstructed through heater fins), run the fan on low (just for quietness), and be amazed how much more effectively the system works.
1. brings a cold (i.e. previously unheated) room up to temperature much faster
2. less latency in automatic thermostat on/off temperature adjustments, more evenness, since the fan permits faster temperature rebounds in the room
3. with some wind, whole room stays more evenly heated, no cold/hot spots
4. face it, room just plain feels less tomb-like with a little air movement
5. new heat is quickly washed sideways off the blades, out of the immediate area, preventing a hot "bubble" of air from developing around the heater, preventing unnecessary off-cycling downtime, allowing the heater to heat the room "more aggressively"
6. (VERY important→) instead of heat streaming directly upward to the ceiling, pooling up there like an upside-down glass of water, the constant crosswind sideswipes all the new heat, sending it scattering out laterally, across the floor, better warming the lower areas/items in the room (the areas which humans occupy!)
The result is, now the "bottom" of the room is warm too, not just the very top/ceiling. Your feet, the cat, the furniture, etc.
Create 2 systems placed far away from each other, and heat a big room.

There is no energy efficient heater. They convert all electric energy to heat. The more electric use the more heat!!

I was taxed -- $1.81. Used Paypal also. Seems like a great deal to keep my tiny home office room warm this winter.

As far as I know, it's a gimmick and these do a worse job on all fronts. It's still a 1500 watt resistive heater like all the rest on the shelf. However, it takes longer to heat up and start radiating after you turn it on, so you have to plan ahead. Many radiator-style heaters also suffer from an issue where they can't actually radiate 1500W and throttle down when they are overheating.

They certainly aren't more energy efficient. They are still resistive heating which is the least efficient heat there is.

There is - it's just big and expensive: a heat pump. They "magically" give you more heat than the energy you put in because they are moving that energy in from the outside.

Would an oil-filled heater stay warm longer after shutoff as the oil is still hot and takes time to cool down?

Know nothing of this brand, but can't say enough about oil filled. They are great in my opinion. FIrst time using was about this time of year when our HVAC went out with a new born. Went 3 days with no heat as we had to get outside/inside units replaced. Kept our master bedroom toasty to where we were sweating at night even with a "vaulted" ceiling. 2nd time was last year with the ice storms and power was out for 3+ days. I put the oil filled in the unfinished basement with a garage door (approx 1,100 sq ft) to help make sure the pipes didn't freeze. I kept a temp gauge down there to alert me of drops in case the generator went out and that area never got below 62 degrees even though that area is a walkout and has the garage door.

My only con about oil filled is that they do take longer to warm up an area vs. a radiant heater or other type. If you looking for something to warm up the bathroom for a quick shower, it is probably not a oil filled.

I think they use oil because water based fluids will freeze, and/or rust the steel (?). Some buyers will leave unit in subzero spot until they want to warm it up

Yeah, but I don't know if that's a good thing. If you are turning it off because you are leaving the room, it's a waste. If you are still in the room, why not leave it on?
