Güde GH 2000 (85175): what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- Documented key data: Güde states 75 m³/h, 54 dB and 115 cm of cable, transparent values instead of vague claims
- Two heat settings: 2,000 W for quick warmth, 1,000 W for more economical operation in small rooms
- Fan function: can be used in summer as a pure fan without heating
- Continuous thermostat: keeps the desired room temperature constant
- Safety & brand: overheating and tip-over protection plus the brand background of Güde
Points of criticism
- 54 dB audible: at 54 dB it is clearly noticeable, and it is not meant as a quiet bedroom device
- High consumption on setting 2: 2,000 W adds up on the electricity bill in continuous operation, which is typical for the class
- Only for small rooms: as a compact fan heater it is no alternative to fixed room heating

What does it cost to run?
At a maximum of 2,000 W power draw, an hour of use at 35 ct/kWh (German electricity price) costs about 70 cents. A two-hour heating evening therefore costs about €1.40: cheap as a targeted top-up heater, expensive as permanent heating.
Calculation basis: 35 ct/kWh (German electricity price, 2026, rounded). Values from the manufacturer data sheet; actual costs depend on use and tariff.
Build quality & everyday use
What carries the Güde GH 2000 (85175) in everyday use: documented key data (Güde states 75 m³/h, 54 dB and 115 cm of cable, transparent values instead of vague claims) and two heat settings (2,000 W for quick warmth, 1,000 W for more economical operation in small rooms).
