Finally, a stylish heater for your home

Econo-HeatI just walked downstairs and noticed a strange-looking square against the wall in our office. Turns out, it’s our new Econo-Heat heater.

It, however, was no ordinary heater.

Heat CirculationUnlike the typical coiled radiator or fan-based heater, Econo-Heat has an unusually slim, touchable, and modern design. Even better, it uses fire-safe and energy-efficient convection heating technology, costing you a mere 3 cents an hour on your energy bill. Plug it into a standard outlet, and you’ve got instant Modernist heating. All for about about 80 bucks.

Oh, did I mention you can paint it to match your room? That’s almost as cool as my new Wii. Almost.

Thanks to Rick Rankin, DDO’s project manager extraordinaire, for discovering this.

    The real question; however, is how well does it work at keeping the room warmer? It almost sounds too good to be true–but if it makes a real difference I’ll pick one up!

    doesn’t design have to be blatant and impractical? like these entertaining examples: http://www.designboom.com/contest/view.php?contestpk=14&itempk=10307&p=3

    Woah, that is cool. Seems to be safe for young kids too. Must add this to my 2007 christmas list.

    I’ve also heard of someone getting multiple ones and lining them up for more warmth. But also it makes a nice Modernist looking installation.

    I bought a heater from Target, because winter in Chicago was really brutal. But sadly, it doesn’t warm up the room as i expected .. dangittt
