It isn't going to completely heat your room up, I would suggest a larger model with more power. Or get two. I have the same size room and have Spanish tile, so it gets cold! I have 2 heaters, which makes it warmer with 2.

It could heat 10X10 easily in 30 mins. It could work well for 20X20 with high temp

I think you will be surprised at how well this heater will work in that space. I use it in a room that is 15x20 and we have it on the lowest setting most of the time and stay at 68 degrees easily. It's a fabulous heater.

I'm heat and cooling a 12 x 30 atic room and it does great. The room is well insulated though. Hope this helps.

We have this heater installed in an open area of our home that is 2 levels (a drop of 2 steps to the lower level) and approx 30 x 40 with an open beamed ceiling. An open hall leads off upper area and there are open doors to other rooms. It takes the chill off the entire 1500 sq foot house, is not very effective in the back 3 rooms of the house, but keeps the upper area where it is installed (30 x 20) very comfortable. I definitely would go bigger if you want it to heat your entire house, but it's great for smaller areas. It is economic to run. We are very happy with it.

I tried using mine in a 15 x 18 bedroom, and it did nothing unless I put it about 2 feet from the bed. The problem is that the heat is not strong enough to rise. So if you put it in on the floor, your feet will be warm but the rest of you won't. The bright light was also too distracting for me to sleep. I've only found that this heater warms a *very* small room, like a 6 x 4 guest bathroom, and only keeps a person warm if they sit level and within a 2-3 feet radius from the heater. Hope this helps. I say save your money and buy something else. I had better luck carrying a hot water bottle around and curling up in a blanket.

I am heating a basement room 16x24 with a 10 ft ceiling and it does a great job. I use the economy setting which allows us to drop the heat by several degrees. Also you can set the on- off times so it doesn't have to waste heat during the night. My unit is the EX 17 (BTU) Natural Gas model.

I can feel the difference in keeping a large, open living room area (1000ish Sq ft) comfortable. Much depends on how cold the outside temperature is and how well insulated the house/room is. This will heat a small (600 sq ft) bedroom (with door closed) very well. The quality and ease of use is excellent

We use it in a bedroom 350 square feet with hardwood floors and it warms the room . Don't know if it would be warm enough on its own for a living area .

I use it to heat 2 small rooms and it does a good job. So I'd say a medium size room. It's the best heater I've used and tried many before stumbling across this one.

I have a 20 X 20 basement room that is freezing. When I turn it on, the heater reads that it is 55 degrees in the room. If I turn it on at 6 am, the room is comfortable (maybe 74) by 8:30. I think it does a very good job. My parents have one that they use to heat their family which is maybe 30 X 20. I really like it.

Spark,We have been very happy with this unit. We have 3 now. It should heat room that size quite easily. Set the heater to the temperature you want, don't just set it on high because it will continue to heat the room, and it will make your room too hot...

For a space of 60 sq ft....I doubt it'll have an immediate warmth impact....You may feel warmth after a few hours of use...If your looking for a high output portable heater...Allow me to suggest "The Big Heater Buddy" ...It'll put out btween 4000-9000 Btu's... Check Cabelas website...The deal with refurbished units....Good Luck.

Yes, I have this heater in my living room and kitchen, which are about that size. The two rooms are divided by a wall with a window and door way in it. One heater does a good job of heating both rooms, we rarely turn both on

We have two of these ~ one for the bedroom (approx 11'x14') & another for the front of the house (kitchen & living room mostly ~ about 3x the space). It works very well...seems to warm us up even faster when we leave it on "oscillate." We live in Michigan, where the Winter gets very cold & snowy...always warm inside! :) hope this helps...

It will not heat a regular sized room. I use it in my living room near where I sit on sofa. It takes chill out of that space.I may be just fine for a small child's room. You set how hot you want it, it turns off when it reaches that heat level.

I got have it in a 12x12 n it heats up pretty good and fast and safe... I love it that u set it up at a temperature n if the temperature drops it activates on it's own it also comes w a remote control. Love it because i also have one in my girls room n work perfect safe it's not like those metal ones thats heats up n u touch it u can burn yourself not this one. I am in love w these heaters. And it heats up bigger rooms too.

It won't warm up a room that big. It is a small-area heater. I use it as a secondary source of heat to spot warm a sitting area. For that, it's just fine.
