What are the differences between a ceramic heater and a convection heater in terms of heating efficiency and performance?

Ceramic heaters use a heating element to warm up ceramic plates, which then radiate heat into the room. They are quick to heat up and provide instant warmth. Convection heaters, on the other hand, work by heating the air around them, which then circulates to warm up the room. While ceramic heaters are more efficient at heating small spaces quickly, convection heaters are better at maintaining a consistent temperature in larger areas.
