Difference between stove and fan heater
Before I get to the point, let me explain.
A stove does not have a fan, so it conducts heat widely and close together, whereas a fan heater has a fan, so it conducts heat narrowly and far apart.
Also, while stoves do not require an outlet, fan heaters do. Please select the product that best suits your environment.
Odor Control
If the stove is suddenly turned off, unburned gas remains, which can cause odors. Therefore, many stoves are equipped with a function to suppress odors as much as possible by extinguishing the stove slowly.
Photosensors
Some products are equipped with a function that operates on low flame when no one is present for a certain period of time and automatically extinguishes the fire when no one is present for an extended period of time. (The time it takes for the fire to go into low flame operation and the time it takes for the fire to be extinguished varies depending on the manufacturer.)

remote control
This may also be available only on higher-end models.
safety device
The mechanism to extinguish the fire when the unit is shaken was installed in all of the models I checked.
Product Comparison Chart
Because of the greatly improved convenience and safety, our blog compared the following products
- With human sensor
| Manufacturer | corona | TOYOTOMI | DAINICHI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supported tatami mats (wooden) | 10,12,15 | 10,14 | 10,12,15 |
| Supported tatami mats (concrete) | 13,17,20 | 13,19 | 13,17,20 |
| Odor Control | ○ | ○ | ○ |
| remote control | ○ | ○ | × |
| feature | Fueling without getting hands dirty | Sensing humidity, automatically adjusts to the optimum room temperature | Cap removable with one-touch |
| Price | 33,000〜55,000 yen | 29,000 ~ 35,000 yen | 41,000 ~ 52,000 yen |
Since it is a primitive system, there were no major differences among manufacturers.
For the front-warming type, TOYOTOMI's feature of "spill-proof even if the tank is knocked over" is certainly important. However, the Corona's feature of "easy and clean hand unplugging when refueling" is more useful in daily use. Therefore, although the price is higher, Corona is recommended for the type of oil heater that heats only the front part of the house.
