We still recommend those oil-filled~radiator~shaped heaters. Our DeLonghi is five years old and still works perfectly; there is no blower to wear out, nor any exposed heating elements to burn you or Miss Kitty. The 24 hour timer allows you to set multiple on-off sequences so you don't have to have it "on" constantly. If you check 'em out, OB says to be sure and check that the rib edges are 'rolled', not just 'stamped' sharp edges. LSA
Yeah, I was looking at those online. I was wondering if they are better than baseboard heat. I’ve got an oscillating heater with a blower that I use now and another that blows but doesn’t oscillate. Both have thermostats but no timers. They really suck up the energy and I trip a circuit breaker if I run the heater and the washing machine at the same time.
