You might have a quirky home that you’d like to accessorise in a different way. That’s where this GAIATOP heater comes in. Rounded with wooden legs, this speaker is very chic. But if you’d rather use it without the legs, that’s also fine, as the legs are completely detachable, and have a non-slip silicone for stability. It’s a ceramic heater with an ETL listing. That means it was independently tested and conforms to Underwriters Laboratories standards, so you can be assured that you’ll be safe in your home. It’s also super quiet, more so than a traditional heater, so you don’t have to worry about being woken up in the night.

If you’re stuck for space in your home, and looking for a neat compact heater that will fit into tiny areas, this is the perfect one. Like the last one, this heater can also blow both hot and cold air. And if you’re worried about safety, this heater comes with an automatic thermal cut-off so you don’t ever have to worry about overheating. It’s also made from a fire resistant plastic. What’s also great is that it can be put into a position that works for you, and can be laid on its side or upright. It’s also low energy helping you to reduce your energy bills.
