SweetFeet: I have used electric infrared heaters. They kind of work. They heat the objects in a room. So if you have your feet under the desk they will be cold. The long and short of it is that you need BTUs in the other end of your living room. It really does not make much difference what the source is.
I also like a heater that does not have a fan. It does not stir the dust up either. I have also had troubles with heaters with fans in them. The pet hair will plug them up or even become a fire hazard.
I like the oil filled electric register type heaters. We use several in my old house as the room lay out prevents good heat circulation. They do not get as hot as a radiant heater and they are a much more even heat. They will not get hot enough to really burn you or anything that touches them. You can touch them but not hold your hand on them. So they are safe with pets/kids around. Plus you have some where to "warm up" too. I have one right beside my desk and it keeps me toasty.
I have linked the the Delonghi brand heaters. I have had several different brands but this one seems to be the best bang for the buck. I use the 1500 watt ones that are thermostatted. They usually are under $75 in cost. I have some of them that are over ten years old. I have one in my shop office that is 15 or so years old.
You are only going to get so many BTUs per watt. The Eden Pure heaters are just all hype. They only produce the same heat as any other with the same BTU useage.

After Captain Cook's exploration of the east coast in 1770 the British Government decided to establish a penal colony in Australia. The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
