The fan sits on top of a stove oven or wood burner and is powered by its own internal motor.
Thanks to a thermoelectric module, the unit distributes warm air when activated at 50-345 degrees.
It measures 25 x 16.4 x 11 cm and has a two-year warranty.
Shoppers have expressed their delight with the product with one calling it a "fantastic addition" to their stove.
The device is a welcome addition as the cost of living crisis continues to bite amid winter's stubborn frost.
One savvy shopper noted: "This is a serious money-saving device - maybe the concept sounds unlikely but it works very well to circulate the heat from a wood-burner to warm the entire room."

How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
