Could a Tabletop Patio Heater Fulfill Your Needs?

It is always disappointing when we have to cut short our get-togethers or even our time alone out on the patio is simply because the temperature drops a little too much for us to be comfortable.
By investing in a patio heater we can ensure that the duration of our fun isn't dependent upon temperature alone.
Most people are familiar with big freestanding gas powered patio heaters, which are great, however, many people don't necessarily have the space nor wish to have such a huge heater and so have found themselves looking for a smaller alternative.
Enter the tabletop variety.
Many of those have a table and chair set outside on our patio and thoroughly enjoy entertaining guests or merely spending a little time with some of our family around the table.
Tabletop heaters are especially designed for the seated environment.
Good freestanding patio heaters are more than capable of warming up people seated below, however, the heater will always have to be placed to one side of the table meaning people furthest away from the heater are going to find themselves more uncomfortable and cold than those closest.
No-brainer, right? Tabletop heaters are absolutely ideal when people are gathered around a table -- seated or standing -- because everybody will feel the warm glow of the heater equally.
Tabletop heaters are normally capable of around 20° output, so are perfect for taking the chill out of the air in most situations and in most seasons providing temperatures aren't too extreme.
Of course, they may be called tabletop patio heaters but they are also usable in other situations, and can be placed on fireproof chairs or stools and are very popular with people who have balconies.
Another major advantage of tabletop heaters is they can be moved around easily by anybody of any physical capabilities -- big patio heaters can be very heavy and elderly folk especially may struggle to move them around themselves; a problem which simply doesn't exist with the tabletop variety.
Also, should you desire to only bring out your heater once in a while, tabletop types are very easy and compact to store away whereas big patio heaters will either have to stay in place or take up a fair amount of room elsewhere.
Therefore, for limited space, tabletop patio heaters are ideal.
