Personal ceramic heater for desk use
The Lasko MyHeat 101 is a 200-watt ceramic heater built for personal comfort at a desk or workstation. It delivers 682 BTUs of warmth directly to the user rather than heating an entire room. The unit plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet and draws roughly 2 amps, reducing the likelihood of tripping a shared office circuit breaker. It is intended for individuals who need focused heat in a fixed indoor location.
Compact build with fixed settings
The housing measures six inches tall with a four-by-four-inch footprint, allowing it to fit on crowded desktops without crowding keyboards or monitors. A six-foot cord with a two-prong plug provides reach to floor or wall outlets without an extension lead. The heater operates on a single heat setting with no fan-speed selection, oscillation, or timer. The exterior remains cool to the touch during operation, and the unit produces a low white-noise hum suited to quiet offices.
Step up from no heat or high-wattage units
This model replaces the absence of personal heating at a desk or the use of a 1500-watt tower heater that warms unused space and risks overloading circuits. The jump is worth it when the goal is to keep feet and legs warm in a cold cubicle or under an air-conditioning vent without affecting neighbouring workstations. It is not suited for buyers who need to heat a whole room, require adjustable thermostat control, or want a tip-over safety switch.
