Lasko 32" Digital Ceramic Tower Heater vs Dr Infrared Heater Dual Hybrid Space Heater

The Dr Infrared Heater is the stronger pick for heating a whole room: its dual PTC and quartz elements, 5,200 BTU output and 400 sq ft rating move more warm air than the Lasko's single ceramic element. The Lasko is the better fit for a bedroom or office corner, where its slim tower shape and oscillation spread heat quietly without taking floor space. Owners of the Dr Infrared praise its output and safety shut-offs but note the fan noise and bulky box; the Lasko is lighter and easier to move, though it lacks tip-over protection and a timer on the base model.

• Choose the Lasko 32" Digital Ceramic Tower if you want a slim, light tower that oscillates warmth across a bedroom or office and is easy to carry between rooms.
• Choose the Dr Infrared Heater Dual Hybrid if you need to heat a larger room fast and want a 12-hour timer, three heat modes and tip-over shut-off.
