Warm Your Space Your Way with New Honeywell HeatBud™ Heaters

SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass., Nov. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The most common way for Americans to warm up during the winter months is by throwing on an extra blanket, according to a national survey conducted on behalf of Kaz USA Inc., distributers of Honeywell heaters*.  However, bundling up isn't always practical or convenient when at home or in the office. The new Honeywell HeatBud™ heater is a compact personal heater that provides targeted heat for customized comfort and just the right amount of heat to take the chill away, whether it's used atop a bedside table, underneath a desk or at the foot of a couch. Using ceramic heating technology to provide fast, even warmth, the Honeywell HeatBud delivers just the right amount of additional heat and uses 83% less energy than larger whole room, 1500 watt heaters.

The Honeywell HeatBud heater is available in four fun colors including black, red, white and green and has a modern, compact design that blends in with any decor. The low wattage and sleek profile is the perfect union of function and design, ideal for the quarter of Americans (26 percent) that use a space heater at the office*.  More than 50 percent of Americans also cite that they seek to make their homes cozy with inviting decor and warm colors*, which can be achieved with a personal heater like the Honeywell HeatBud that offers a pop of color and steady, targeted warmth just for you.

Packed with many of the safety features that come standard with all Honeywell heaters, the Honeywell HeatBud has a surface that is cool to the touch, overheat protection and a tip-over switch that shuts off the unit when it is not standing upright. These features, coupled with two convenient low wattage heat settings (250-watts on high setting, 170-watts on low setting), make the HeatBud the perfect solution for your personal comfort.

The Honeywell HeatBud heater is available at an MSRP of $19.99 at major retailers. To learn more, visit www.HoneywellHeatSavings.com.
