Will it heat a 250-square-foot room?

Only partly. The 250-square-foot rating assumes a well-insulated space; at 400 watts it raises the temperature slightly and mainly warms the area right in front of it.

Does it need special wiring?

No. It plugs into a standard wall outlet and mounts over it. The outlet's location decides where the heater can go.

How is the Deluxe different from the standard Wall-Out?

The Deluxe adds a remote control, a 12-hour programmable timer and a nightlight.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

It is rated for indoor use including bathrooms, but keep it away from the tub and shower and plugged into a GFCI outlet.

What comes in the box?

The heater, a mounting bracket and hardware, and a remote control.

Is it safe to leave on overnight?

It has no open flame and a ceramic element, and the timer can shut it off. Follow the manual's clearance guidance and don't cover it.

Our take on the Handy Heater Wall-Out Electric Space Heater Deluxe with Remote

The Handy Heater Wall-Out Deluxe is a small 400-watt ceramic space heater that plugs into a wall outlet and mounts directly over it, so it needs no floor space or cord across the room. It adds a remote, a 12-hour programmable timer and a nightlight, and is rated for rooms up to 250 square feet. At 400 watts it draws about as much as a few light bulbs, which makes it cheap to run but weak: it warms a person or a small zone, not a whole cold room. Compared with 1,500-watt portable heaters it is far less powerful, but it is quieter, safer to leave plugged in and easier to tuck into a bathroom or hallway.

Pros

Plugs into an outlet and hangs on the wall, no floor space used
400 watts draws little power, so it can run for long stretches
Remote control and 12-hour timer
Ceramic element heats up fast and stays quiet
Built-in nightlight for dark hallways and bathrooms

Cons

400 watts is weak; it won't heat a 250-square-foot room on its own
Warms only the air close to it
Wall-outlet placement limits where it can go
Small fan and element mean slow warming of larger spaces

What reviewers say

Owners treat it as a personal spot heater rather than a room heater. Most like the outlet mount, the remote and the low running cost; many say the heat only reaches a few feet and that it is best in a bathroom or beside a chair.
