May need to pick this up for next winter.
Buy.com has a Lasko Ceramic Heater on sale right now for just $19.99.
It was unusually cold here this winter and I only have one little space heater, so getting another one for next winter may be a really good idea.
It was really cold here this winter, and it's technically not over yet, it's not even February yet, so we could still get another wicked cold front or two between now and the end of March.
Having another small space heater would be very useful and helpful.
The one that I have now was only able to heat up just this one room, so yeah, having another one would be a good idea.
Then I could put the other heater in the dining room or kitchen hallway, and that way the boys bedrooms would get some heat on those cold winter nights that we had.
The Lasko ceramic heater has an adjustable thermostat just like the heater I have now, and it has an automatic overheat protector just like the one I have now, so that there's no risk of fire.
You would be amazed just how many people try to use things like bbq grills and stuff INSIDE their homes here during the winter and then die of carbon monoxide poisoning and stuff, it's really kind of crazy just how many people do really stupid things to get their house warm when it gets cold.
I'd rather just have a couple of portable heaters than to do something so stupid like bring a grill inside the house, and really, for $19.99 or even the regular price of $29.99, is a small enough price to pay to stay warm and not have any accidents.
Comments
I have a Lasko countertop heater in this camper along with another type of heater. Those along with a stove burner going keeps this place nice and warm (the heater quit and we can't afford to fix it right now).
I think that would be a very good investment for you and will help keep you nice and toasty when it's cold.

Mmm I'm tempted to buy that space heater. We use propane for our heat, but it is INSANELY expensive -- we're talking $250 - $300 per month! We make do with the thermostat at 62° and plenty of blankets. We also have one space heater in our living room, but our living room is pretty big, so I could definitely benefit from having another space heater at the other end!
