Description
Potentially the best-looking mid-sized ceramic heater, the Lasko 6405 is ideal for heating small and medium spaces without drawing too much attention. With its speckled finish and decorated base, visitors might just confuse the heater with a nice piece of pottery.
This heater includes many different features that help it stand out among competition. The rotating fan makes sure that air circulates efficiently and is surprisingly quiet. Note that this model is more or less the “little brother” of the Lasko 6435 model (which includes a remote).
