A smart heater is only as good as its app and thermostat. Some keep your room within a degree of your setting all night; others lose Wi-Fi, ignore schedules or cycle so loudly you switch them off. In these space heater smart reviews we score how well each heater actually behaves as a smart device and as a heater.
We scored six Wi-Fi heaters on app and schedules, thermostat accuracy, heating performance, noise, safety and value. Scores combine manufacturer specifications, independent tests and long-term owner feedback. For our shortlist, see the best space heater smart guide; our Editorial Policy explains our process.
