The Mr. Heater Big Buddy is a portable radiant propane heater that runs on two 1-pound tanks and puts out 4,000, 9,000 or 18,000 BTUs across three settings. It heats up to 450 square feet and carries two safety shutoffs: an oxygen depletion sensor and a tip-over switch. It suits garages, workshops, patios, tents and job sites where there is no power outlet. Against smaller Buddy models it trades extra weight (17.1 lbs) for far more heat, and it needs a hose and filter to run off a 20- or 40-pound tank. Owners like the output and the safety features; the common gripes are the cost of 1-pound tanks and the bulk.

Owners rate the Big Buddy highly for its heat output and safety shutoffs, and many use it in garages and tents. Complaints center on fuel burn at the high setting and the need for extra parts to run off a large tank.
Heater Big Buddy is a portable radiant space heater that runs on liquid propane. It can be used indoors or outdoors. It has high, medium, and low heat settings and a single control start knob.
The heater connects to two 1-pound propane tanks. It can also run on propane tanks up to 40 pounds with an additional hose and filter. The hose, filter, and propane are not included.
