Lava Heaters

The next-gen outdoor heater

An answer to the ubiquitous “mushroom” outdoor heaters, Lava recently introduced their pyramid-shaped heaters to the States. The big advantage, other than its striking European-designed looks, is ambient heat that radiates from the sides for better 360-degree warming. To achieve this safely, borosilicate glass tube contains the propane-powered flame while a wire screen on the outside remains safe to touch.

Made from powder-coated steel (available in five colors) , the heaters will endure rain, snow and other inclement weather and are easy to use and assemble. An electronic ignition makes it a cinch to fire up the propane tank enclosed in the base (it can also convert to natural gas), and you can even operate it by remote.

Prices start at $1,400 each—not so unreasonable for a wind-proof fire with a 10-year guarantee. Check Brookstone or Amazon to purchase.


Dyson Hot

A revolutionary space heater from the U.K.’s leading appliance producer

James Dyson has been turning appliances into art since launching his bright pink G-Force vacuum cleaner in 1983. Never ceasing to innovate, the eponymous line has grown to include several styles of vacuums, hand dryers, fans and now, a heater. The Dyson Hot draws on the technology used in the bladeless Air Multiplyer Fan, passing a stream of air over an airfoil-shaped ramp. Surrounding air is drawn in, amplified six times through induction and heated with 20 ceramic stones, never exceeding 392 degrees and alleviating the burning smell many heaters emit.

Taking over two years (and hundreds of prototypes) to develop, the Dyson Hot also uses as little energy as possible. Once the room has reached the desired temperature, the heater turns off and only turns back on once it detects the temperature has dropped.

Claiming to heat the whole room faster than any other heater, the oscillating Dyson Hot not only looks good, but is a valuable commodity for any chilly home or office. The Hot comes in white or blue with silver colorways and will sell online and in stores for £270.
