Will it heat a whole bedroom?

No. At 450W it is a spot heater for a desk, bathroom or small closed space. For a full room you need a 1,000W to 1,500W heater.

Does it need any installation?

No. It plugs into a standard wall outlet and hangs there. Check that the outlet is not behind furniture and can take the weight.

How does it compare with a 1,500W portable heater?

It uses roughly a third of the power and gives roughly a third of the heat, but it saves floor space and has no cord. Choose it for close-range warmth, not whole-room heating.

What does the remote control do?

It handles power and settings from across the room. It is a convenience, not a smart-home feature, and it needs a clear line of sight.

Is it safe to leave plugged in?

Ceramic outlet heaters are built for continuous outlet use, but keep the vents clear, avoid outlets behind curtains, and do not plug it into an extension cord or power strip.

Our take on the homfan 450W Ceramic Wall Outlet Heater with Remote Control

The homfan is a small ceramic space heater that plugs directly into a wall outlet and comes with a remote. At 450W it draws modest power, so it warms a desk, a bathroom or a small room rather than a whole floor. That makes it far weaker than 1,500W portable heaters, but it needs no cord across the floor and takes up no floor space. Owners of outlet heaters like this tend to value the compact, wall-mounted format and the remote; expect modest heat output and some fan noise.
