Hello value experts, please help me out!
I have decided I would like to buy an oil heater for some small spaces I hope to heat. So I went online and bought the cheapest I could find that had reasonable reviews. So I bought this.
I was wanting it to heat up my bedroom in the morning for an hour or two (really struggle to get out of bed when it's cold - first world problem, I know, but I have the disposable income, so why not?).
However, oh my goodness, the loud clicking and popping noises it makes were unbearable. Woke me up and I'm already over it.
So, I will return this. However, my next question is, what should I go with? I thought Delonghi was top of the range, so looked at their top-of-the-line Dragon 4 (seems I can get this for ~$260 on good guys commercial).
However, in my experience with other products, top brands are usually paying overs for the brand name.
So that's my question. Is there a less expensive reliable oil heater that has a timer on it, and isn't going to make horrendously loud popping/cracking noises? Or is that just the curse of oil heaters?
Noting there are reviews that say even the Dragon 4 makes terrible noises.
They all make those noises AFAIK
