Compact Design and Heating Features
The black PTC ceramic heater measures 19cm wide and 40cm tall, making it compact enough for smaller spaces. It has two heating settings of 1,000W and 1,500W, allowing users to choose between lower and higher power. It also features an energy-saving mode with adjustable temperatures ranging from 15C to 35C.
Users can change settings using the control panel or the included remote control, which works from up to 20 metres away. The heater has a sensor that detects movement up to three metres away, switching on when people or pets are nearby and turning off when the area is empty. It also has an oscillation function, a timer of up to 12 hours, and safety features including overheat protection and a child lock.
Usage and Safety Recommendations
The manufacturer recommends using the heater in rooms measuring between 15 and 20 square metres. It comes with a remote control and has a built-in handle for easy movement around the home. Users should follow the manufacturer's safety instructions, keep the heater away from flammable materials and never cover it while in use. Running costs will depend on the power setting, how long it is used and the electricity tariff.
Alternatives and Customer Reviews
Shoppers can find alternatives on Amazon, although they will pay more than the discounted Breeins model. The Dreo Electric Space Heater costs £49.99 and features three operating modes, an adjustable thermostat, an ECO mode and a remote control. Another option is the Silentnight Comfort Control Ceramic Fan Heater, also priced at £49.99 on Amazon, offering 2,000W of heating power, a remote control, 70-degree oscillation and a nine-hour timer. Argos is selling the Keplin 2000W Portable Ceramic Desk Fan Heater for £30.99, but it does not include a remote control or motion sensor.
The Breeins Electric PTC Space Heater with Remote Control is currently £35.99 on Amazon, with one shopper awarding it five stars, writing: "Excellent value for money. The oscillating settings make it ideal to heat more than 1 room if placed in a hall. Heats up a single room very quickly, and the Eco mode is a great setting." Another added: "I've always had my reservations about standalone electric heaters, but I must admit this one seems to be pretty good. There is a kill switch underneath the base that turns the unit off immediately should the unit be tipped over onto its side. I tested this, and it works well."
The unit kicks out a ton of heat for a 1500w unit. I tested the draw and it's exactly as it says. The unit can switch vertically and horizontally, giving great coverage in a reasonably sized room. You can set the temp easily through the remote control and temp/modes button, you have an Eco mode, person detection mode, child lock, 12-hour timer mode it works really nicely, and what I like a lot is the cool 30-second down when you turn the unit off, a nice little touch with safety in mind." One shopper left a three-star review when their order arrived without the remote, writing: "Nice little heater warms large room up, would have given more stars if it had the remote."
