10 Reviews: Best Space Heater for Basement (Dec 2023)

This ceramic heater includes a digital remote control to help you create the ideal warm environment for your space. It has an elevated nature, and the oscillation ensures that the warmth is distributed uniformly across the room. It’s also equipped with ceramic safety features to keep you and your family safe. As you can see, this heater has a space-saving pedestal design that takes up less than 1 square foot of floor space, making it ideal for a small basement.

Love love love this! I have it in my basement craftroom which can get 10 degrees colder than the main floor. This heats up quickly, oscillates and has a shut off timer in case you’re prone to forget and leave it running.

With three heat settings to choose from: medium, high, and energy-saving, you can create a comfortable atmosphere in your room. The Energy Saving Technology was created for this heat to help you save energy and lower your heating costs, so it won’t break your wallet even though you use it for a long time. What’s more, the thermostat and a secure overheat safety sensor work together to keep it from being too hot.

Love this quiet little heater! My home office is not connected to the central heating system, so an Ohio winter requires some supplemental heat -- not just an open doorway to the rest of the house. This little ceramic space heater heats the space quickly, quietly and is booked as an "energy save" appliance. I especially appreciate the safety switch that automatically turns off the heater if it is upset.

With an automatic electronic thermostat, two heat settings, and an 8-hour auto-off timer mode, you can easily change the temperature to suit your needs. A multi-function remote is also included, allowing you to control all heater functions with ease. You won’t have to worry about safety when using this heater because it has built-in safety features including overheat security and a cool-touch exterior.

It is that time of year when the temperature drops and parts of the house get really cold. This tower heater solves that dilemma. It is light weight and can be moved from room to room. It has a remote, so you do not need to move to change the temperature or make it oscillating, I rarely use the timer function. The heater blasts heat, but it really is quiet compared to my old ones.

This ceramic space heater, which produces abundant heat without open coils and is long-lasting, provides instant warmth to your space. There’s no need to be worried about noise when using this heater since it’s built to be a low-noise heater that emits about 30 decibels while in operation, so it won’t interrupt your sleeping, resting, reading, or working. Furthermore, the adjustable thermostat and three heater modes with a fan; high heat, low heat, and fan only, ensure that you can achieve the ideal warm atmosphere.

This heater performs well. Even in low heat mode it will warm up a smaller room in no time at all. On high, it rocks. The thermostat can keep a consistant temperture in the area.

If you want a portable heater that you can move around with, this one is a good option because it comes with four swivel caster wheels that can spin 360 degrees. This heater has an oil-filled radiator that does not use a fan to force hot air out, making it almost quiet to operate. It will make your home look more contracted, atmosphere, and warm because it comes in a classic design that can be used in any place in your room, including your basement.

I live in the basement of my house and it’s very cold all year long. This radiator heater has helped me stay warm when my room gets unusually cold. It’s very quiet, easy to use. I can set the temperature from 65 to 85 degrees and set a time on how long it runs. The best thing is it comes with a remote control, I don’t need to get up to adjust the temperature if needed.

Lifesmart is here to provide a smart heater that will not only provide a warm and comfortable atmosphere but will also provide warmth without the high cost of heating an entire house. Instead of heating the air, this heater uses infrared light wavelengths to target people and objects. This function keeps the room’s current humidity level and does not dry out the air. As you can see, this heater has a stylish design with a Quakerstown dark oak cabinet and mantel, making it ideal for use not just in the basement, but also in other rooms.

I bought this fireplace for additional heat in my 750 sq ft basement and I must say I am very impressed. I debated this purchase for years and also whether to purchase this or a quartz heater or oil filled radiator type heater. I chose one of these units because I also wanted some ambiance to go with the heat. This unit has the high, low, and eco setting and we usually set it to low or eco and it takes the chill off of that large space wonderfully. The interface on the unit is very accessible and user friendly and as a bonus the remote is just as user friendly. For supplemental heat and a very nice ambiance I don't think you could beat this unit for the price! I would purchase again in a heartbeat.

This heater, like the previous one, has a realistic 3D flame effect that makes it pleasing to place in your space. With five customizable brightness levels, the flames dance on and behind the logs, giving the illusion of being in front of a true wood-burning fireplace without the mess and hassle. It has infrared quartz heat to maintain natural humidity, overheat protection to prevent overheating, and an adjustable digital thermostat to enable you to control the temperature of your room.

This is a cute little electric stove. Make sure that you check out the measurements before you order. I bought it for my utility room in the basement, and it gives my basement utility room a lovely glow and cozy warmth. I also love the remote control. You can use the "fire" without the heat if you choose. The knob on the door is super cute, and when you open the glass door, you can see the thermostat and the other digital numbers that tell you the temperature, the time setting (how long do you want it to run), and the flame intensity (see photo). I chose this particular stove because of the glass sides. I thought that was prettier to see the flame by three sides. ...

This is a smart heater that uses WiFi technology to enable you to monitor your heater from your phone. Oh, and it not only allows you to change the temperature, but it also allows you to activate the child lock for safety and set the heater schedules from your phone. This heater has a wall-mount design, so it doesn’t take up much floor space, and it warms up easily. It’s also incredibly energy efficient thanks to the proprietary HMS dual-wall technology designed on this heater.

I wall mounted this and it looks and works great. Heats an entire 1000 sqft basement during a 10 deg New England winter day. I struggled a little connecting to wifi, but once I got it working it has stay connected without a problem.

This electric tower heater has enhanced safety features such as a non-visible heating element, a protected touch surface, automatic shut-off, and a tip-over safety switch; it is also ETL listed, so you won’t have to worry about its safety. It also has specially designed heat channels that combine air and heat to deliver a fast, even and long-range heat projection. This heater is an excellent option for heating your basement.

Love my new heater! My office is I. The basement and so cold. This works very well and keeps me warm, Warner than I thought it would.

Opolar is here to offer a heater that is made of a waterproof plastic design. Aside from that, due to the front and rear slope covers, no water can easily reach the machine. Oh, and for your safety, it has IP21 cover to keep it away from water while using it in the bathroom. Because of the adjustable thermostat, you can set the temperature to the desired level. When the level is reached, the unit will stop working and restart when the level rises.

Very durable and easy to use. I have it in my basement bathroom which is freezing and it warms it up very quickly.
