What works
- ✓Long track record with thousands of buyer reviews
- ✓Adjustable thermostat and 12-hour timer
- ✓Runs quietly in a bedroom
- ✓Plugs straight into the outlet with no cord
What does not
- ✕Sits at full list price most of the time, so there is no real saving
- ✕Heat output fades fast more than a few feet away from the outlet
The verdict
Ontel Handy Heater Turbo Wall Outlet Plug In Heater earns its #3 place on the strength of buyers who want a familiar brand name. In a week of testing it behaved exactly as the listing suggests: quick to warm the air immediately in front of it, but limited by the room size it can realistically hold.
If your target space is small and closed, it is a sensible buy at $29.72. For a bedroom or an office you sit in all day, our #1 pick warms a far larger volume of air and holds temperature far more reliably.
