Essential home appliances like heaters are often characterized by their function over form, which is something the Koleda 'Ember' compact electric heater aims to change with a fashionable design that doesn't skimp on power.
The compact appliance features an almost Dyson-inspired design that elevates the simple unit to a chic solution for staying warm in the winter months. The unit is rated to heat up spaces as large as 215-square-feet and has a 1,200W capacity, while the ceramic heating element inside the unit will distribute heat evenly with a powerful yet silent built-in fan.
The Koleda 'Ember' compact electric heater features a connected design that will allow for app-based control and also features the Smart Zoning feature that will enable users to link multiple units for a room-by-room heating functionality.
