warmer

Warmer is something that provides warmth—a device, garment, or covering that raises temperature or prevents heat loss: hand warmer, seat warmer, leg warmers.
A warmer is also a container that keeps food at serving temperature: a buffet warmer.
As a comparative adjective, warmer means more warm: It's warmer today than yesterday.
