This one works great and at $21.50 is a great price - https://www.amazon.com/Lasko-754200-Ceramic-Adjustable-Thermostat/dp/B000TKDQ5C.

Just a dp on this heater - it definitely pumps out heat well despite its size. However I found the thermostat very poor at regulating room temp. The swing between on and off was too large - a 2 or 3 degree swing would be fine but this was more like 10 degrees.
I'm an optimist; but only because life isn't going to give me any other good choices.

This is a serious question - I know the heater is small in size, but if its output is 1500 watts then how is it any different from a big sized heater that also draws 1500 watts? If the space is bigger, you'd need more watts (i.e. a second heater) not a bigger one, no?

I've had this Lasco for over 10 years. It heats up pretty fast and keeps a good even temperature. What's funny is that it is $5 cheaper now than when I bought it a decade. I highly recommend it.

If you want a larger heater consider an oil heater. I'm sure there are cheaper options but here is one that I've used which worked in a larger room.

I recently bought this one
https://m.staples.com/Honeywell-Digital-Ceramic-Compact-Tower-Heater-HCE311V-/product_1034667
Does an amazing job on warming up a smallish bedroom in a very short time when it's on almost the lowest.
It's not from amazon but hey its from STAPLES!
(Actually I think it's cheaper in best buy)
