How is this in comparison to the Dr. Infrared Heater which goes on sale for $130 sometimes? Ignoring asthetics. Need mine for a big living room and not sure if it will be enough.

I had this and it's not that warm. We would crank this to the highest heat but the internal fan is not big enough to spread the heat all around. Looks nice but not as effective as an oiled filled heater. Had to return it.

How big was the room you were trying to warm? Wondering if this would be alright for a bedroom or office.

More than enough for bedroom or small office. This is excellent heater and sleek design. U can either mount it on the wall or leave it vertical placement. Very versatile and small footprint.

I'm assuming one of these would be better at warming up a bigger room:

Not really, they are both basically the same BTU output and wattage
