What size room will this effectively warm and what is the temperature rise?

I live in Florida, so I only use it for the look. The unit gives you on option of light or light/heat. The remote only power it on/off.

I would have to guess a room 600 to 900 square feet would be fine and you'll probably get a 3 to 5 degree rise in temperature if left on

I had a small room and was toasty Was no temp reading on it but it raised my thermostats on my furnace by three degrees

I think it will struggle to heat this area. I am assuming that this room is high. Heat rises so you will be heating the upper part (possible where the bedrooms are) I suggest you get the Sengoku CV-2230 KeroHeat Convection 23,000-BTU Portable Kerosene Heater. I did use that unit in a great room but used a fan placed on the upper level to 'push' heat back down and around - did a great job and was very, very economic - remember to do monthly maintenance on these units to get the best out of them

My room is 20 feet by 20 feet, so 400 sq ft. While i dont have a thermometer in there to gauge temps, the estimate in my review was based on the temp from our car and the temp at which we set the Dyson to. It raised our room about 5 degrees in about 30 minutes and it was an even heat throughout the room. Having said that, it is too soon to know electric bill implications.

I'm not sure up to how many square feet it warms, but I have had it in a room that was 400 square feet and one that was 600 square feet, both rooms were kept very comfortable. I like that it is small and it has low and high. It kept each room nice and warm and wasn't loud.

I use it to heat a room of about 15' x 20' in size. It does just fine, when it is real cold outside (10 degrees or 22 degrees below freezing) it takes a while to reheat it up after a weekend or not using it a few days.

Most definitely. Tops out at 81 degrees, but was a godsend for me and the family when our pipe froze, rending our furnace useless for a few hours. This kept us from freezing and even helped heat a 550 sq ft room up to about 64 degrees from 59 F. It'd do far more in a normal sized bedroom.

Our room in the basement is approximately 20x25 and it heats it very well. It pretty much helps the whole basement (700 sqft) feel warmer. I love it!

We have two of these ~ one for the bedroom (approx 11'x14') & another for the front of the house (kitchen & living room mostly ~ about 3x the space). It works very well...seems to warm us up even faster when we leave it on "oscillate." We live in Michigan, where the Winter gets very cold & snowy...always warm inside! :) hope this helps...

I use it in a 12x 16 ft basement workroom and the temp goes up about a degree an hour--about the same as the small kerosene heater I used to use there. But that room never gets colder than about 56 degrees and I work comfortably at about 62-64. I like it but I feel I have very specific needs.

Thanks everyone, your feedback helps a lot. The temps get down to about 25 in the early morning but always warms up to about 40-45 by mid day in Central NC. Ooops didn't see the typo... the space is 14x40x10 (560 sf with 10 ft ceiling height) fully insulated ceiling walls and floors with a ceiling fan to aid in heating or cooling circulation.

It heats up well, but I use it mostly for instant heat rather than heating up the room, since it is a fan forced type. I guess, if you're going to use it for the main heater, about 10X15 would be the maximum you can get, without other heating source.

In a poorly insulated older home, it's way more than adequate for a 15 x 15 room when outside temperature is in the 30s or even lower.In a room that is twice that size, it's just not enough at these temperatures. A space heater is a necessity. Overall, in my situation after exactly one year of use, GOSH am I pleased!!

Hi Melissa, I live in Ct The 20,000 heats my living room,dining room without any problems 74 degrees on the number 3 setting(it goes up to 9) I think you should go with a smaller unit like a 10,000 btu or smaller which would give you more than enough heat. It stands about 24-25 inches high with the legs on ,you also can wall mount it.Steve

I mainly use it in my living room/tv/dining room, about 25x30. It is sort of one large room with half walls. It heats the entire area well.

A small to medium size room warms up well over thirty minutes anything over 12x12 may be disappointing unless another space greater is add ed

Depends on the outside temp. They can keep a 11 x 10 room warm @ a temp as low as 25 degrees.

I have mine sitting in front of me but about 10 feet away. It is strong enough that I get warmth, but don't feel a big breeze. It is a mighty little heater, and I think you would like it. The room I have it in is about 12 x 15 and it heats it up nicely even at the medium settings. So it will heat up a bathroom nicely I think. it heats the whole room, not just the ceiling..hahaha...
