Summary

The CT22360 is a fully assembled 22-inch ceramic tower heater for warming one room, with 1500 W and 900 W heat settings, a digital thermostat and a three-position oscillating sweep. Check the safety list before you buy: this model has no tip-over switch and no timer.

Strengths

  • Fully assembled out of the box, with the remote and a user manual included.
  • Two heat settings and a digital thermostat give basic control for a small room.
  • Three oscillation positions, including a full 360° sweep, spread heat around a room.
  • The remote docks on the back, so it is harder to lose between uses.
  • The intake filter is removable and easy to vacuum.
  • Backed by a three-year warranty, longer than many budget heaters.

Weaknesses

  • No tip-over switch and no timer, so it is lighter on safety features than Lasko’s own step-up towers.
  • The automatic thermostat only works on High; on Low the heater runs continuously.
  • The button beeps cannot be turned off.
  • Lasko lists coverage at 150 sq ft while some retailers claim 300 sq ft.
  • The manual says most heater components and many electronic parts are not sold to consumers, so repairs are limited.
  • A Home Depot Q&A buyer reported rattling, a strong smell and a very hot top after about an hour of use.

Heat, thermostat and controls

The heater has two settings: 1500 W on High, which is also the setting it starts in, and 900 W on Low. Lasko confirms the 900 W low figure through its product-expert answers, even though the manual only documents the high setting. The thermostat is automatic only on High; the heater shuts off about 2°F above the setpoint and restarts at 1°F below. In Auto mode a fan samples the room air for 15 seconds after the setpoint is reached, idles for 4 minutes, then samples for 10 seconds every 10 minutes. On Low the unit simply runs continuously. The digital display toggles between °F and °C, and the control buttons beep; there is no documented way to mute them. Lasko’s own table lists no timer and no auto shut-off for this model.

Oscillation and remote

A dedicated button cycles through three sweep positions: 90°, 170° and 360°; a fourth press returns the unit to a fixed forward position with no oscillation. The manual says the middle setting is 170°, and one Best Buy owner describes 180°, so treat the exact middle angle as unclear. The multi-function remote mirrors every control except the °F/°C toggle, takes two AAA batteries that are not included, and docks into a holder on the back of the unit; replacement remotes come from Lasko customer service.

Safety, maintenance and repairability

Safety features are basic: a thermal overload protector that cuts power when the unit overheats and resets after unplugging for 10 minutes, a cool-touch housing, a polarized plug and an ETL listing. There is no tip-over switch and no timer, and Lasko’s own table confirms both absences. Routine upkeep is filter care: the manual says to vacuum the intake grilles and the removable filter every two weeks, and its troubleshooting guide blames a clogged filter for a heater that repeatedly shuts off after a few minutes. Lasko warns against extension cords and power strips, and says most heater components and many electronic parts are not sold to consumers, so the practical repairs are limited. The warranty runs three years from the original purchase.

Is it worth it?

There is no instrumented lab test of this exact model; Consumer Reports, TechGearLab and Tom’s Guide have tested other Lasko heaters, not the CT22360. That leaves the manual, the warranty and owner feedback as the main evidence. Snapshot listings in 2026 put Home Depot at $89.99 and Best Buy between $89.99 and $99.99, with a Walmart marketplace listing at $72.61; McCoy’s showed $107.78 and DK Hardware $133.36. At or below $80 it is a strong value; between $81 and $100 it is fair; above about $120 the case weakens, because Lasko’s CT22498 and CT24362 towers add a tip-over switch and a timer for similar money. Electricity is the dominant running cost at 900 W or 1500 W.

Which model this is

This page covers the Lasko CT22360 Full-Circle Warmth 22-inch ceramic tower, UPC 046013776099, sold as Home Depot internet number 321752794 and Best Buy SKU 6540518. Retailer part numbers differ from Lasko’s own, so match on CT22360. Do not confuse it with Lasko’s CT22498 or CT22498C Elite towers, the 24-inch CT24362, the 25-inch 6451 or the 23-inch 751320, which are different models; a Reddit thread about the Costco 22-inch Lasko heater covers the CT22498C, not this one.
