| Tower heater & fan combo
Anyone own or can suggest a tower heater & fan combo?
Ideally the dyson sorcery is great, but i'm not willing to fork over $450.
The fan should be cool enough to cool a small bedroom in the summer by providing the similar output of a pure fan.
The heater should be warm enough to heat up a small bedroom in the winter by operating as a portable electrical heater.
A remote would be ideal and a timer (ie. turn off in 30mins by itself) would also be idea.
I have no idea where to even start looking. Local / online does not matter.

The dyson has crappy output. better to get 2 separate units.

agreed. Dyson has a nice concept but the power of hot and cold is too weak and not worth the price. Definitely better off buying 2 separate units.

might not help much as this is only a heater,,
bought this for ground floor as its sitting on concrete and base board is behind couch (which doesn't heat the room)..
works well, comes with remote and has 3 settings... (hi,low. auto)... Decor Glass Panel Heater
i did alot or research, buying one unit to do completely two opposite jobs isn't the greatest idea , cause both work on totally two opposite temp spectrum, thus causing more stress on the unit.
