It's a space heater. It's supposed to be "inefficient." The whole fucking point of a space heater is to convert electricity into heat. What the fuck is wrong with you?
EDIT: I didn't expect people who know what they're talking about to reply lmao

I mean it's not totally absurd, straight electricity to heat creates more air currents that move the heated air upwards to the roof and creates a cold draft on the floor level, while something like a water based heater radiates the warmth a lot slower and while it heats the air around a bit slower it doesn't cause as bad convection currents which keeps the room at a comfortable temperature more easily. 80 degrees at the roof level doesn't help anyone if the draft destroys your ankles. There's a reason why floor heating is more efficient than other heating systems. If you only try to heat the air around the heater to maximum temperature, it will be uncomfortably hot close to the heater but it gets cold just a few feet away from the heat source, while slower heating will keep the air currents at a reasonable level.
