I have always hated space heaters

I don’t know why it is, but I have always really hated space heaters. I think that they are just terrible. Not only do I hate the way that they look, but I also hate the way that they are a danger to people and property. I know that they have made advances in space heater technology over the years, but I still think that something that plugs into a wall and produces heat on purpose just can’t be good. I really don’t understand why people want to have so many space heaters placed around their homes during the winter. This is usually something that I see in older people’s homes. I don’t know if they think that they are saving money by using electric space heaters that they plug into the wall instead of their central furnace system, but I just don’t think that it works. Honestly, plugging in a whole bunch of space heaters that run on electricity probably actually makes the heating bill higher than it would be if they would just turn their thermostat system up a little bit. This is exactly what I keep trying to tell my grandma, but she will just not listen to me. Back when I was a little kid, I burned my hand on his space heater and I have had a vendetta against him ever since. You just can’t convince me that a space heater is the way to go when you are trying to heat your house in the winter. I honestly feel like any other heating source would be better than a space heater.
