The kid working there saw me comparing heaters (checking wattage) and decided to help.

He assured me that one (the most expensive) was the "most efficient" one they had.

To the unschooled -efficiency in electrical terms - is the most efficient unit is the one that can do the assigned task, wasting the least electricity being converted into heat.

All you might achieve with a more expensive model is reliability. Every unit there is 99%+ efficient at turning the electricity into heat, yes?
