I watched a Mathias wandel YouTube test video on infrared heaters. The style with the metal cover like in the first two pics, weren't the best as they lost a lot of heat to the cover. The open one type in the 3rd pic did well in the tests

Does this 1500 watt model put out more heat than the $25 Walmart bathroom special heater that's also 1,500 watt if two heaters one heater is $100 the others $25 and they both put out 1500 watts which one is more efficient

Mathias is great but this heater isn't the same as what he tested. The grill and and casing of this heater is plastic and thanks to the fan blowing the hot air away from the heater the grill stays only warm to the touch. I have both the same metal-grilled heater he tested and 4 of these Heat Storms and the latter are much more efficient at heating a space.

I've been looking at a way to keep my unheated but insulated mud room warm during the winter months (New England). I've always been concerned with burning down the house…

Are these safe ro run all day with minimal supervision? Or should they be used more as space heaters and monitored at all times?
I have one in each of our 4 bedrooms and we sleep with them on. They are screwed to the wall, they don't get hot to the touch, and we keep the area in front of them clear. We're on our 3rd winter with this setup and zero issues so far.

We bought this last year on Woot for our basement (my wife works from home down there) and it has been a great addition. The space is approx 700 sq ft of finished space with a tile floor. The heater does a great job maintaining the temperature, but not necessarily raising it. We've found that if we run the HVAC to get up to 68 and then set this to 70, it will hold 68 for a few hours before needing to have the big system come back on.

Because some of our back rooms (including my office) don't heat up as much during the day, I think we are gonna consider getting one more!
Is the HVAC not more efficient than the heater? Or is the probablem that you just need zoned heating?

The biggest problem would be something touching the heating element which I don't see as an issue here. The other problem is old house wiring. A 1500W heater would take basically all the juice from one 15Amp breaker. I seen people put in a rod in old apartment fuse box because they keep burning the fuse!!! That's asking for a fire. If you run this on a 15A circuit, you will probably trip the breaker. Most lighting circuit are 15A while kitchen circuit are on 20A circuit.

The breaker or fuse is designed to protect the wiring, not your device. Too much current on house wiring is asking for a fire. So don't swap out a higher amp breaker or fuse if it keep tripping without upgrade the wiring.

Also, with electrical heater, they are all equally "efficient". That is, the electricity used are all converted to heat. It's best to direct the heat to the person and and "heat the room".

Our basement opens to the main level, so heat rises up and out relatively quickly, so the basement cools quicker. So to keep my wife's office space constantly warm, this allows us to maintain her ideal temperature without having to run the big system. I put an energy monitor on the heater and after initial startup, it runs in the 500-800 watt range for most of the day, until it auto shuts off once temp is met. Also, we have solar and run an excess, so electric heater is "free" versus our gas furnace, sorta...lol

Tldr, it is more efficient to run the space heater

We purchased two of these last winter from that deal. They are being used for our kitchen which is built on a slab and a tile floor, so it gets cold when you're barefooted.

These are a great solution for our situation, but it is important to keep the two side filters clean. We didn't notice them at first, and the power draw got one of our outlets pretty hot. Super easy to remove and clean tho.

They work smoothly otherwise. Glad we got them because the lows right now are around 20 degrees!

Which Walmart heater for $25 comes with WiFi control ? Curious if I should get that instead

Bought this last year at this price, totally worth it. I have it in my basement bathroom, against recommendation, in the mountains of Colorado and I used it all last winter when I needed to preheat the bathroom before taking my morning shower. Download the app, create a schedule, set the duration, and don't even have to think of it. Not whisper quiet, but not super loud either. Highly recommended.

Does the product specify whether it's safe for the bathroom? I'm interested in adding some extra heat for the bathroom while taking baths.

Got a different infrared heater last year for my kids bedroom. But the light from the element was an issue at night. How much light do these output

I believe that I read in the manual that it was not intended for bathrooms or anywhere moisture builds up. It is on the opposite wall of my bathtub and shower and it's been fine for me but I'm definitely going against recommendation.

This one says it's bathroom safe.

The listings are weird though. This seems the same as the white one, so no idea why it's listed separately, as the 1500 watt ones are listed on the same page, but with a color choice option
