Customer Reviews for Cadet 120-volt 1,000-watt RBF Series In-wall Fan-forced Electric Bathroom Heater in Chrome

Pros- install worked with existing wall box and is very simple even for an inexperienced electrician - was able to re-use old Thermador steel grill cover as title states (see photo) - old school style and look Cons - build quality is fairly flimsy and pales in comparison to original unit - heat output is substantially weaker than original unit, luckily my bathroom is small, but would definitely not recommend for a larger bathroom - heater protrudes about an inch out and is not flush with wall. Overall I would give this a 3.5-3.75 total stars. It gets the job done but falls short in a few key areas

It is a very good product that works easily and very well. It was easily installed It does not make but a low unnoticeable noise I am pleased with it I have been using it since it was installed

Not as warm as the old thermadore.

Measurements were misleading

This unit is fine but it only puts out half the heat that the 60 year old unit it replaced did. It's a fine unit but it doesn't throwout heat like the old Thermador unit did. But if you can't fix the old one it does fit great.

Shipping was too long, Returned item

Does what it is designed to do best - heat the bathroom.

The motor blew up after 2 minutes of heating

It does not heat as well as the 50-year-old one I had to replace.

Very disappointed. This heater is completely unusable without the mounting box. Unfortunately this part is sold separately. They should include all the parts to install this heater or let customers know they cannot use it without buying extra housing.

This is junk , doesent come with the incloser to fit in the wall and noplace does it tell that

I was disapointed that heater that is rated 1000 watts takes so much longer than portable heater of 750 watts to heat my bathroom that is 7ft X 5ft -6 in

The unit heats up quickly and it’s quiet. I love how the blower distributes the heat around the room.

Very disappointed in this product. lf new of this product not putting out enough heat in my bathroom to heat it up the room. I would not bought this product. Now stuck with 2 heater that don’t heat up the bathroom after taking a shower. Maybe y’all can fix this problem. Like to hear y’all respond.
