Description
The Select Under Desk heater is a freestanding, small personal heater specially designed for offices and the work from home market. Perfect for providing personal heating for legs and feet for homeworkers as well as people in commercial office environments. This low energy mini desk heater provides a supplementary heating solution at minimal cost.
The Under Desk heater comes with a simple foot pedal for handy on/off control. It also has Herschel’s in-built SMART-R system for App-enabled control, via the SmartLife App. An ideal solution for larger offices enabling both user control, to allow increased comfort for individual employees that feel the cold, as well as facilitating centralised control to ensure heaters are not accidentally left on.
Unlike fan and convector heaters which warm up the entire space, this mini desk heater uses radiant heating technology to directly warm people, a cost-effective system for providing additional warmth where required.

Available with a 5 year warranty the mini desk heater is supplied with feet and comes with a fitted UK plug. The mini desk heater is freestanding only and cannot be mounted to a wall.
Note: the Under Desk heater is not intended to heat an entire room, it is designed to gently warm legs under desks. For commercial office environments, please see the Select Ceiling Tile heaters which can be used in conjunction with Under Desk heaters to provide a complete office space heating solution.

It’s easy and compact and much cheaper to heat a small room and I like the shape as it’s light to move around.

Great Under desk heater but will not warm a room!
Great under desk heater. As long as you are about 2 foot away its great, good to warm hands as top is slightly cooler than bottom area. If you want to warm a room this does not do it. 1 great thing is, it pulls hardly anything from the grid compared to fan heaters. I would recommend.

The under desk heater is excellent
The under desk heater is excellent. Exactly as promised, it keeps me comfortably warm without needing to run the central heating. Looks smart compared to most heaters, and unlike most gadgets that claim to be smart, it worked smoothly with the app without fuss.

A good heater
Our 2nd infra-red heater from Herschel. Arrived on time, well packaged and cleanly designed. The heat output is good and the iOS app gives good control.

I couldn’t be happier with this under desk heater. It is lightweight, easy to set up, easy to hook up to the SmartLife app/Alexa/Google. I spend a lot of time at my desk and my feet are often cold. I currently have it set to 24C and, because I have solar, it’s costing precisely nothing. If I had to pay for it, I calculated on max it would still only cost 6.14p/hour (inc VAT).
Customer Service –
Fantastic to hear your feedback on your Under Desk heater. Thanks for sharing.

Got one of these before Christmas after hearing a radio4 program suggesting infra-red as a more economical method of heating – people rather than spaces. It is excellent! Heat output is nearly instant – it’s like having warm sunlight – but only on your legs.
Seems really well made. Can be controlled easily via an app to adjust the warmth output, also there are timers.
The only thing I would really like to add is to have some kind of sensor so it would switch off when I’m not there as it’s frustrating to realise you’ve left your desk and left the heater on. But the app will let you switch it off from inside the local Tesco if you remember…
Customer Service –
Thank you for your brilliant feedback, we’re delighted that you are satisfied with your heater. We do have a PIR sensor available to puchase on our website if you’d like to use a sensor alongside the heater and App.

Purchased the under desk heater 220w to heat us instead of the while house while working from home. Since plugging in we have been able to lower the heat in the house and our desk in the office is lovely and warm all day. No complaints. Have other electrical appliances on throughout the day so can’t directly comment on Leccy but it’s certainly not outrageous and not noticed any crazy increases and we are running the heater most of the day.

Thanks for your feedback, we’re thrilled to hear you are enjoying your under desk heater. At the current rate of 34 pence per kWh, the UD220W heater costs 0.22kWh x 34 pence which equals 7.5 pence per hour to run. If you run this all day for say 8 hours, it will cost around 60 pence per day. Not bad for keeping you warm in your office all day 🙂

Our office is in an old building with poor insulation. We’re on the first floor and the shop underneath is vacant and has been for a couple of years. Despite having the heating on, it always feels cold and we end up with 2 or 3 electric fan heaters constantly on the go. At the same price as 1 x 2kw fan heater, I can have 8 of these (220w) running, keeping individuals legs nice and toasty.
It’s a big outlay for the heaters but they should pay for themselves quickly, and keep the office team happy!
Home Instead.
Customer Service –
Thank you for your review. It is great to hear that the office is happy with the Under Desk heaters & they are more cost efficient than the electric fan heaters.
Steve –
The under desk heater was just what I was after to take the edge off my cold office. I didn’t want something that baked me, so the gentle heat from this infrared heater did just the trick. It was straight forward to hook up to my Google home, making controlling this really simple.
Customer Service –
Thanks for your review. It is great to hear that you are pleased with your under desk heater.
Mark Campey (verified owner) –
A nice sized little heater. I would have given it a 5 star if there was some type of light on the panel or illuminated foot switch to indicate when it was on/off.

Thanks for your great feedback. We’ve passed your suggestion onto our Design team.
Bert Stewart –
Great little heater. Warms quickly and very cheap to run
Customer Service –
Lovely to hear, thanks for your feedback.
Tim Weller –
An excellent little 220 watt heater that is just the right power for a heater to have alongside you. Sufficient for a small cold room at the bottom of the house. And, it takes such a small amount of electricity, too!
Customer Service –
Thank you for your brilliant review of our Under Desk Heater, we’re glad it’s keeping your room warm.
M Lowry –
Really pleased with our under-desk heater which is working efficiently and providing dedicated warmth in the little “office” off our kitchen. This is a small but cold room with 3 outside walls, a high ceiling and a tiled floor – making it difficult to heat in winter. The under desk heater effectively warms up the person sitting at the desk. We are really pleased with it and would thoroughly recommend.
Customer Service –
It’s fantastic to hear your feedback on the Under Desk heater and how it is keeping you warm. Thank you so much for taking the time to share it.
Maksim –
I absolutely love this heater. 5 stars for The quality and performance is top notch. Was just wondering if it’s possible somehow to turn off the wifi blue led? everytime i use the footswitch the wife comes back on, and this blue light is too bright to have the radiator running at night, so each time i have to manually turn off the wifi by pressing “-” button for 10s. I’d rather have wifi turned off permanently, if possible, and just use the footswitch to operate the radiator. Thanks
Customer Service –
Thanks very much for the feedback. We are pleased to hear how happy you are with the under desk heater. Unfortunately there is no way to turn the wifi off however we have passed your feedback on to our Product Design team.

Great little heater for keeping warm while home working. Feels very sturdy and well made. Gets up to temperature very rapidly. Google home operation is easier than using the app (‘okay Google, turn on the heater for 2 hours’ saves forgetting to turn it off). I’ve knocked it down a star because of the default behaviour when using WiFi. If you are turning the heater on and off with WiFi control so it’s always got mains power, in the event of a power cut the heater comes on set to 37 degrees when power is restored. I can see why they chose this because it allows simpler operation with the foot switch…but it would be better if it simply remembered the last state it was in (i.e. on or off).
Customer Service –
Thanks for the feedback Andy. We’re really pleased to hear that you are enjoying your under desk heater. At the moment there is no setting to keep the last set temperature in the event of a power cut however your comments have been passed to the product development team.

This is my second Herschel heater, after having one installed on the ceiling of a kitchen extension.
Through winter when working from home, this under desk heater has been brilliant! It keeps me nice and comfortable without having to heat the whole house. I use the Smartlife app to control the heater entirely – bypassing the need to use the included foot switch. I can control the temperature, turn it on/off and also it easily integrated with Alexa.

Thank you for your review Ben. It’s brilliant to hear that you’ve been satisfied with your under desk heater and haven’t had to heat your whole house when working from home.
