Sensa Nursery Space Heater: Safe & Efficient 1200W

Perfect for Nursery (with one caveat)
The nursery is unfortunately the coldest room in our house, and there isn’t much we can do with the central heating situation. During the winter months, the nursery would drop in temperature to the high 50s at night, which was way too cold. I was terrified about putting a stand-alone heating unit in the room with the baby all night, but I was also desperate. I’m so glad I purchased this heater! It’s very safe and truly simple to use. It has an automatic shut off if it’s moved, which the baby did a lot of when we first placed it in the nursery. It’s cool to the touch, and you can lock the control panel so littles can’t change the settings. It keeps the nursery at a consistent temperature, which I didn’t think was possible with the size of the room and vaulted ceilings. We still have sleepless nights, but at least I know it’s not because she’s cold. The only complaint I have is the incredibly bright display light that you can’t turn off. We try to keep the nursery as dark as possible at night, and the display light is bright enough to light up the entire room. We found covering the display with several layers of black masking tape to be an inconvenient but successful way of blocking out the light. Overall, I still highly recommend this product to anyone who needs a safe stand-alone heating solution for their child’s room. I agonized about this purchase, and I’m writing this review so you don’t have to!

I’m not a fan
Our nursery is the coldest room in the house, as we’ve learned. The heater was a dud out of the box. The remote sensor wouldn’t turn on. The heater worked for a little bit and shut off in the middle of night. My little woke up screaming because it was 65 degrees in his room (outside temp was like 18 degrees). I’ve read the manual and nothing did the trick. Waiting on a replacement. Will update.

I did a ton of research on low wattage, safe, electric heaters. The researched spanned every blog on heaters, every type of heater, every website seller of heaters and every review on heaters. This was our best option by far.PROS- Its crazy quiet, we can sleep with it kicking on in the middle of the night and not even notice.- It is super safe. It has so many safety features and a 3 prong plug so we feel plenty safe to have it running while we sleep.- We live in a tiny house @ 150 sqft. (with tons of windows and a door from the 80’s) this little thing keeps the whole house warm in -20 no problem. We are more comfortable than we have been in months prior to finding this heater.- Low wattage! This heater should cost less to operate because it runs at a fraction of other heaters, it also shouldn’t kick on and off as frequently as bigger heaters. For households like ours who have low amperage capacity, this heater is a wonderful option to have on the market.- All the extra features/ buttons it comes with listed above. Like the temp setting, cool to the touch and high & low settings.CONS- The temperature setting is a bit annoying as other users have mentioned. I thought we could monitor the house thermostat and turn the temp. dial on the heater to figure out which number 1-7 would correlate with 20 degrees. But that system hasn’t worked so far and we have to keep an eye if it kicks on too low or waits too long to kick off again. Bit of a bummer.- The power cord is shorter than other portable heaters.Some random (not good or bad) facts that I would’ve liked to know before purchase.- There is a little red light on top when its running. It’s so quiet I can’t always hear when its on having this light means I can just look at the machine. Its not so bright that it shines in the dark- The cord storage at the bottom is nice but it makes it hard to move the heater around without activating the tip over safety function on the bottom. It needs a bit of adjusting sometimes. Carpet may be a nightmare.- The instructions explicitly mention to not use this heater in a bathroom or with an extension cord. So heads up if thats your plan.- Some reviews mention price as a negative factor but the value is pretty great in my opinion. After all my research, 100$ is pretty on market with all other thermostat heaters and the safety features of this one blow the others out of the water. Although getting a sale or warehouse deal would be even better:)Overall, awesome heater for the price, safety, portability and wattage settings. Definitely recommend!!

The product worked reasonably well when it was working, it stopped functioning after three very short uses to trial the heat before winter (max 10 mins of use!).The lights on the top are very bright, we bought light coverage stickers as suggested.I have contacted customer support – hopefully there will be a fix/solution to it malfunctioning so quickly.

Works perfectly in our toddler’s room. Cool touch front and thermostat help keep the room warm but not too hot and the kiddo safe. Great product, would definitely recommend it.
