I have a tiny, and minor wattage ceramic heater, and so long as I close my
bedroom door, it can eventually warm up the room. That's actually when
the furnace isn't working. it would probably take less time to warm
things up if I tried sealing the bedroom door.
 
You don't get warm by aiming a heater at you, you get warm because the
heater warms up the room. It takes time, but if it's not doing the job,
then maybe you should seal your window up better, and then work on the
door. Small heaters don't work well trying to heat a whole house or
appartment, the place cools down faster than the heater can warm things
up.
 
I think I paid $30 for this heater, on sale, and I'm glad I bought it. It
took care of my room when the furnace stopped, and it was cold in the
house, and so I'm glad to have it for emergencies, though more likely the
electricity will be out and thus no furnace or heater. But it's valuable
to have, in the fall or spring, I know it's there in case I want to warm
things up a bit without the furnace going on. It's cheaper to heat room
by room than heat the whole place by the central furnace, one advantage of
the people who all switched to electric heating, a heater in each room,
because the lure of cheap electricity convinced them to switch.
