Warm up your dorm with these top products

Space Heater from Riomor

A space heater is sure to do the trick when you need to warm up your dorm room! This particular model from Riomor can oscillate 60 degrees, is portable, and fully electric. You can select from three mode settings: low heat, high heat, and fan which is actually cold air, making it perfect for year round or when you need a noise machine to get to sleep. And it’s small enough that students can bring it home during winter breaks and weekends to warm up their own room.

Before buying a space heater, always make sure they are allowed in your college’s dormitories. Some schools do not permit them or have very specific requirements.
