Russell Hobbs Space Heater in Black & Silver 1500W Silent Portable Oscillating Ceramic Round Electric Heater, Low Energy Digital Display, 4 Modes, 24hr Auto Timer, Overheat Protection, RHCH2002S

I am extremely cautious when reading reviews on Amazon for obvious reasons. I am reviewing this little heater based on my everyday use experience as of mid November 2025. I got a 3x3.5m bedroom and a smaller bathroom that get extremely cold during the winter months. I needed a heater that would heat both of these spaces adequately, mainly the bathroom as the landlord is a cheapskate and does not have pre a installed heating element in it and it gets frozen. I can confirm that this heater heats up both rooms (being used separately on each of course) more than adequately! Even better is the fact that you can set a target temperature on the heater and when the room temperature reaches the target, it shuts down temporarily and when the temperature drops it turns on again to keep the temperature steady. In terms of noise, imagine having your average gaming pc blowing air while you play a demanding game. Yes it is a bit noisy like a computer high speed fan, but this is never a problem for me to sleep. The only drawback with this device is that the led indicator on the front is very bright, it also blinks when it engages the stand by mode, so it might not be ideal if you want complete darkness. And a blinking light in the dark is not the best while you sleep. A hack for it is to stick a piece of a tape on top of the display so the light dims down considerably while it still remains legible as shown on the photo. Still it is a flaw that shows that the designers have not tried/tested the product in reality, prior to launching it to the market. The cable is about 1.9m (74 inches) long so that should prove adequate, there is the knock down auto shut off option if you have cats, children or alligators (both are the quite the same really) in the house and will keep you and them safe. There's also a remote control device that goes with the heater (batteries are included) which offers the same functions as the main panel on top of the heater. The heater's retail price and it's size compared to it's functionality makes it the go-to device if you're on a budget. On the summer months you can use the device as a desktop fan as it offers the ption to blow air without the heating element turned on. In conclusion, it is one of the very rare cases where the marketing slogan on the box: 'Let's get toasty', lives up to true words. Most heaters promise a lot, a lot of them do not deliver. For the price of this device, it a no brainer. I could deduct one star because of the very bright display but the overall performance and effectiveness vs it's price really rips that drawback off the chart. Plus the solution to this is very easy (not quite stylish though, but you can find a wide selection of ready available adhesives to stick on. Very happy with this heater, let's find out how long it will last.

I bought this heater too take away the chill between the times the heating is off. I had read plenty of reviews for many heaters, this seemed the best so I took a punt and purchased it, I have to say I agree with the reviews, it's a nice size, not to big, very modern looking and has plenty of features, all of which are easy to understand. It's very well made, good quality materials. The remote is very handy as well. Heating wise I am very surprised how well it heats an area, I have it in my bedroom which is fairly large and within a couple of minutes it's up to temperature and I feel it would have no problem heating a bigger area with ease. It has many functions and they all work perfectly, I normally select a temperature and allow the heater to reach this, it then shuts itself off, when the temperature drops below my setting it automatically starts and brings it back up to temperature again. The heater is more powerful than I expected, it really is great value for money. As for noise level, it's not silent, as I said before I have this in my bedroom which is quiet, but I don't notice it after a while and I don't have heating on when I sleep anyway, even if I did it wouldn't disturb my sleep, I can imagine if placed somewhere like a front room or similar rooms with everyday noise you wouldn't notice it at all. My verdict on this heater is that it's more than I expected, it will heat up much larger rooms than my bedroom with ease, I did get this at a discount price, but it is well worth the standard cost as well. I am pleased that I spent the extra tenner to buy this instead of the socket heaters I was originally looking at, I know this is capable of heating any decent size room with ease, I wouldn't be as confident with the smaller socket heaters. Plenty of features, nice looking, well worth the money.

Nice and neat unit. Kicks out enough heat for a small to medium room. Well built. But... The remote control seems to share a few codes with my LG television. So turning the TV on also toggles the heater and the volume control sets a timer. Just something to be aware of but otherwise it's a great little heater.

This is a wonderful little heater that kicks a lot of punch. My heating recently packed in during the ice and snow, this heater kept my room cosy. It makes very little noise so is ideal for the bedroom. I love the remote control function as it means I can stay toasty in bed and switch it on to warm the room up. Weighs very little and so is easy to move from room to room. Excellent value for money I would highly recommend this heater.

Very good piece of equipment. I thought I'll keep it on my desk as it's small, but it produces quite a lot of heat so has to be further away. Great to heat a small home office without having the central heating on for the whole house. Remote control very useful. It is small, sleek and looks great. It makes noise, but not very loud, does not distract me from work at all. Great machine for the price. Very happy with it.

It heats up quickly and does an excellent job of warming the room evenly without being too loud. The sleek, modern design looks great in any space, and the digital display and remote control make it incredibly easy to adjust the settings without getting up. I also appreciate the safety features—they give real peace of mind when using it for long periods. Energy-efficient, powerful, and user-friendly, this heater delivers exactly what it promises. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable, comfortable warmth!

Lasted about a month of light use before it went bang and stopped working. Unfortuntely too late for me to return through Amazon, and no response from the manufacturer so far. Avoid!!!

very high noice, otherwise good product.

Great little heater with powerful heat output. Great you can set the temperature and via remote control. The only two negatives are: (1) the default heat setting whenever you switch it on is 35, requiring to constantly dial down the setting; and (2) even if switched off put plugged in, the unit has a bright led light, so a bit annoying if using in a bedroom as the light is notice when trying to sleep. Would be great if one could adjust the display brightness. Otherwise, very happy with this heater.

The modes are not properly working . Example , if i keep in high it should be 30 to 35 , for low should be 20 to 25 and the eco mode should change based on the outside temperature . This is not automatic .

the white light from the display is horrible. it never turns off and its super bright, making it impossible to use in a bedroom, even when turned off.
