who the heck would pay $8,500 USD for this?

I think it's cool.

Even if I had that kind of cash, I probably wouldn't plop it down on that, but it's definitely cool.
 
Not sure if anyone with that kind of money to spend on something like this doesn't already have a good heating system. Who knows though. It's pretty cool albeit frivolous considering you can spend 5% of that money for ceramic low profile heaters with the same BTU.

Ceramic ones not much more...

And in the economies of scale the dude sticking this on his wall is probably paying less percentage wise and a normal dude buying a $30 space heater.

You can buy a car for $3000 too that legally is no more capable of getting you to the store than a $3MM exotic 🙂

 
Droog is an enterprise based in Amsterdam and set up in 1993 as a statement on designing things while high. We operate worldwide together with partners, clients and manufacturers, designers, artists and architects in all areas of design, and we do it while stoned. Working from a mentality that is close to human, our products each tell a story about themes such as: memories, nostalgia, re-use, craftsmanship, nature and getting high. In our aim to create innovative concepts that change perspective, we want to substantially contribute to the international debate about designing while stoned and then pricing while in la-la land.

People don't buy a 3 million dollar exotic car for transportation. Just like people wouldn't buy this heater to heat themselves. Both are bought for pleasure, not need.
