Rank #7 in Best Patio Heater 2026: 10 UK Models Ranked by What They Actually Heat
STATUS Outdoor Electric Heater, 2000W Free-Standing Tower, 3 Heat Settings
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The STATUS is a free-standing electric tower heater with three settings — 650W, 1300W and 2000W — operated by a pull cord, with an adjustable height and an angle-adjustable head. At 210cm tall and 9.2kg it stands on the patio rather than being fixed to a wall, and it has a tip-over switch.
Its reviews are more informative than its specifications. One owner reports plenty of heat for a corner space but suggests two units for an open area with wind, and a second bought a repeat unit because the heat did not reach the other end of the garden — which is a clearer statement about 2kW coverage than the 200 square feet in the listing. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing and the reviews on it, not from our own testing.
How those 88 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.4 stars.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Easy install, pull cord on/off and setting if you don't need all bars on. Throws out plenty of heat for a corner space, but may need two if open area and a little wind chill is in effect. Plenty of cable.”
“Great for the garden space we have. The heat just didn’t cover the other end of the space we needed so ended up buying a 2nd. Great value for money”
