The Atom One is the giant-killer pick — Dreo's $50 heater matched Dyson's performance in CNN testing. Best buy for value-conscious shoppers.
The AVH10 is the best-overall pick — Vornado's vortex airflow heats the whole room evenly, not just the air in front of it.
Best value. Matches Dyson performance. Smaller brand than Lasko.
Best overall airflow. No remote unlike Lasko 755320. Pricier than tabletop.
