Default where can I get the right converter to plug a 300W 120V US fan heater into a UK socket?

I have no idea what that is, but simply buy two and wire them in series
then.

On the heater, or on the ebay Step Down / Up Transformer 230V-110V AC UK-US
Voltage Converter 200W 1000W UK?

I guess the heater plug is the one with no fuse. So will the transformer
which I guess is fused, make it safe or safer?

The heater is

https://www.amazon.com/Optimus-H-411.../dp/B000GG8DTS
so is 300W

I guess it's not technically a fan, it's an infra red heater that is
designed to look a bit like a fan. I don't think it has any fan on there.

Thanks
