Best Heater Ever!
I was amazed at how well this heater will warm up the area. Actually I have not had the setting above 3 of 6 and it keeps it nice and comfortable. My electric usage has remained low. It warms better than our last heater. The best thing is that the entire outside remains cool to the touch and perfect when used near children, pets or elderly to avoid burns.

So far, very good.
Only used a couple times in a 200 sq. area. Heats room to comfortable level very quickly. It hasn't gotten really cold here yet, so can't say what will happen in winter. Also am curious to see electric bill. But so far, very satisfied.

heater
the heater that we purchased didn't heat the room we bought the heater for. We thought it would do the job and heat the room but it didn't.

This is a great little Heater.
I have had the product for about 3 weeks now. It seems to be doing what we wanted. Some heat in the garage.

Simple to use.
I bought this unit to heat about 300 sq. ft. in my basement and it heats the whole basement! I haven't seen the unit turn off even at the lowesr setting given the room being warm enough. so I'm not sure if the thermostat measures room temp or if it's there to just protect the device. Still, it keeps the room warm. I don't know how efficient it is compared to an equal regular heater.

better than a space heater
Purchased it on sale for around $60.00 and I have always wondered how well this style of heater would work. Heating our 450sq foot addition during the day is OK. It definitely does better than the smaller $20-$40 space heaters we were using. I have left it on over night in the middle of the room away from cold walls and windows to see how much warmer the whole room would be in the morning. Without the heater the room is usually about 56 degrees in the morning with the heater left on over night It was about 60 degrees in the morning, not worth leaving on over night. If you are within 5-7 feet of the front of the heater you can get some good heat. The room is an addition in the back part of our house and the forced air heater we have does not reach there.

Provides great warmth.
My daughter and son-in-law live in a 100-year-old house, which during winter, is very cold and drafty. I purchased this portable heater for them hoping it would help provide some warmth for them. I also was careful to choose a heater that would be safe around their 2-year-old son. I'm happy to say that this heater helps to keep their living room warm enough for them, even during the recent digit temperatures we experienced.

I use it in my kids room works very well seems just as good as the 15th watt systems
Works very well in my kids bed room i use it to supplement heat because my thermostat is on other side of house and can get ki da cold. Reason i went for a infrared heat is because my daughter got burnt on a oil filled radiator style heater and the infrared heater is so safe it's comforting to know my kids are safe around it

Works great in a 12x12 room or a 13x11 room
We own 2 units. Worked so well, we bought a 2nd. Safe and quiet. You might forget to turn it off when you leave the room. Remote is also great to have - I velcro'd it to the machine so I dont lose it. 6 levels of heat settings. Great buy for $99

    On it's way back to the store
    I was sitting right in front of it and it was on high and couldn't feel any heat. Room still cold after hours of it running. Would only be good in a really small room.
