Sorry if this has been asked before, but what's generally the most efficient suplimental /emergency heater for a small room?

I'm looking at oil filled rads around £60-80.. Preferably ones that you can set a specific temperature on, rather than just a min /max dial?

Any better options?
Thanks!
 
Thanks yeah.. doh! re: my efficiency comment!

I was thinking something like this:

I dont care for the smart functionality, but having an onboard thermostat I can set to 17c or whetever is pretty essential - but does that just mean the oil will only heat to 17c? or it will stop heating when the ambient temp reaches 17c?
 
Room is a box room, maybe 3m x 3m so I'm guessing an 2-2.5kw oil rad will be enough to not have to run it at max, but with the option of turning it up if needed?

It's consistent ambient temp I'm after so I guess oil rad is best?
