Our take
The digital, remote-control Comfort Zone that stays on the same 30 A circuit as the CZ220, if you can find one. We'd pick it over the 7,500 W model for a garage near 500-600 sq ft.
The plug-in route if you have, or will add, a dedicated 30 A circuit with a NEMA 6-30R outlet, and a heater you can store in summer. Its manual says floor use only, not for household use, and not to leave it running unattended for long.

1-year warranty; after 30 days the heater ships to World and Main freight prepaid.
The product page advertises wall or ceiling mounting; the manual says floor heater only. Go by the manual. Not for areas where gasoline, paint or flammable liquids are used or stored.
