Space heaters are so cozy–they warm you quickly and can be safely kept nearby. Limiting the area you heat saves money on utility bills, and with energy costs soaring this winter, we could all use a little savings. Unless I get bumped out of the top place by the dog, you’ll find me cuddling up near one on cold days all winter long.
In the NYC region, gusts of cool air from the ocean and rivers make the winter cold and damp, chilling to the bone. Space heaters are great at warming quickly for near-instant gratification when coming in from cold weather activities. They're also indispensable should there be an issue with your primary heating system.
