A Little Space Heater That Really Puts Out

My "man room" gets kind of cold sometimes. Last year I had a little space heater I used in the room. But I moved that to the living room. It puts out enough heat even if it is quite small.
But today, earlier in the day, I was getting very cold in my room and I thought, I would like to have another little space heater for it.
We were going to Walmart anyway for some other stuff, so I went down that aisle that had the space heaters and took a look. Much to my surprise there was a tiny little space heater there for $13. I checked it out, considered it, and thought, let me just see what this little guy can do.
I put it under my desk and plugged it in, and I have to say, for a tiny little $13 space heater this thing is absolutely perfect for what I need. It's actually a little too warm. I have to shut it off after a couple of minutes. There is no way to regulate the temperature.
But this thing makes my work area VERY cozy. I am impressed for the money I spent.

Wow, for $13 you can't go wrong! Just make sure you don't walk away and leave it on, for $13 it may not have built-in safety features such as auto shut-off when it gets too hot.

@porwest Haha, that's for sure! Would suck to lose everything over a $13 gadget!

@moffittjc I think it might be more beneficial to take it to work and leave it on over the weekend and see if I have anything left to go back to on Monday.

My husband has a space heater in "his" room too. He's always cold. Glad yours worked out for you.

@LindaOHio My wife is like that, but she's going through menopause. I am going to use her this winter to melt the ice on the driveway.

Very good buy there Jim.
I have one similar bought from Walmart 3 yrs ago for 8.99 and it has been warming me fine ever since.

@NJChicaa You might go and see if you can get one of these little guys at Walmart. I mean, it's not going to heat the room, but for $13 it can help you cozy up a bit. Like I said, I am impressed with how much heat this little guy puts out. I had to shut it off.

I use my space heater in the bathroom. I'm always cold during winter coming out of the shower. Sounds like you got a great deal
