With winter coming up I was considering one for my office. I've seen some mixed reviews. Was considering the mini. Any thoughts would be appreciated

If you usually heat your place with electricity, so you already pay for the same electricity but using another devices, then YES, worth it. For the same expenses you will get some sats, not too much but is something and also you participate in securing the network.
If you usually heat your place with other meaning, not electricity, then use it only if you have free cost electricity. Otherwise is costly to maintain it for few sats you will earn.
Simple as that.

Do you have one though? I thought the same thing but they are WAY more expensive than other heaters and I’m looking at a 5-6 year break even period using it for 5-6 months in the winter. This is why I’m asking as I thought it was a no brainer. Didn’t realize they keep 75% of the sats I mine with the cheapest model
