Our verdict

A pyramid style radiant patio heater that burns propane and promises a ten foot warm zone. The listing mixes tabletop mounting with wheels in the title, so check the exact base before buying.

Overview

A flame inside a quartz glass tube radiates heat outward in a pyramid shaped tower meant for patios, gardens and backyards. Tip-over protection and weatherproofing suit outdoor placement.

The glass tube makes the flame visible, giving atmosphere as well as warmth, and the stated coverage fits a small seating area. Mounting is described inconsistently, and the listing gives no tank size or run time.

Who it's for

Small to mid sized patio seating areas that want a radiant heater with a glass flame tube fit it. Big events and windy open spaces will want greater output or wider coverage.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Visible flame in quartz glass
  • Weatherproof build listed
  • Propane and natural gas listed
Cons
  • Mounting type conflicts with wheels in title
  • Fuel hookup details missing
  • Run time per tank unknown

Performance notes

Radiant heat warms people and objects directly rather than the air, so coverage drops quickly in wind. Output depends on the burner rating and gas supply, and the stated range is a zone around the heater. Placement near seating matters more than raw output.
