"Best" can be highly subjective. Small heaters like this are limited to 1500 watts, so some might say buy the cheapest 1500w heater you can and you'll get the same amount of heat as an expensive one. Unfortunately, some of those inexpensive 1500w heaters have noisy fans. You could buy an oil filled heater and have total silence, but those tend to be bigger than I'd want in a TC.
Pelonis ceramic disk heaters are typically quiet and well made, but they're also expensive. But, I have one and love it for where we use it, which isn't in the TC. The heater I keep in the TC is a Holmes 1500w ceramic, moderately priced, with a quiet fan. I keep it in the camper because it has one thing that the Pelonis doesn't, and that's a "Low" setting that won't overload my 1000w Yamaha. So I can use it both in campgrounds with hookups, and camping off the grid.
