"GREAT WHILE IT LASTED! BUT IT ONLY LASTED 10 DAYS...." 2009-10-10
By S. Mckinney (Midwest USA)
My wife and I fell in love with this heater as soon as we took it out of the box and plugged it in. It produced almost immediate radiant heat, very pleasant!. It takes a little while for the convection aspect to kick in. The heater draws in the cooler air at floor level. The warm panel draws the cooler air up between the back of the heater and the wall. The narrow one-inch space between the wall and the back of the heater speeds up the flow of air, producing a sort of Venturi effect, which is what makes the air in the room circulate. We questioned whether the thermostat and eco mode were working properly. The heater has an automatic eco mode. When the room temperature reaches the desired thermostat setting, the heater reduces it's power consumption from 1500 watts to 1000 watts. However, the eco mode always kicked in before reaching the room temperature that we set on the heater's thermometer. So, I don't know if this was a defect, or if this is the way it's designed, but it defeats its purpose by lowering heat output when the room has not even warmed to the thermostat setting. If it weren't for these two problems I would have given it a 5.

Nice looking. Easy to move around. Easy to use with remote. Feel it could emit more heat. Will see how it affects electric and gas bill. Has to be close to area you want to warm (like sitting in my chair).

"Best space heater I have ever owned" 2008-02-02
By Vicki L. Evans
I put this heater in my daughter's bedroom in December 2006. It keeps her room heated throughout at a consistent temperature in the cold months. The unit is never hot to the touch and uses little electricity. Our pets love to lay right next to it on a cold day. I have always been a little nervous about the burn and fire hazards associated with space heaters, but feel perfectly safe with this one. Steady on it's feet, also - with all the activity, I would have expected it to get tipped over a few times by now, but it hasn't. I am getting ready to order another for the living room.

"ONLY HEATS OBJECTS IT"S POINTED AT!" 2010-08-29
By R. kossak (southwest boonies)
In some 5 star reviews, they mention how well it works if you stay in one spot. For me that is a disadvantage because I move around with a room alot. This heater will only heat objects which will then eventually heat the air around the object. That seems to me a inefficiant way of heating a room. If you sit right in front of the heater within a distance of maybe 6-8 feet, nothing works better. But if you move out of that spot, it's cold. However, keeping in mind that it heats objects, I attempted to heat an 8'x8' shed to 80%-85% because I was raising crickets, while the night time temperatures were getting down to 60%. I put the heater in the middle of the shed and pointed it to a flat piece of steel about 1'-2' away. I turned it on low and was able to heat the shed up to a max 80%. The piece of steel got so hot that you couldn't touch it, but it heated the air which is what I needed, but there is another disadvantage. There is no thermostat, so the heater was on continuously and there was no way to fine tune the amount of heating meaning it can very easily overheat as well as underheat, plus, if there is a power outage even for a second, the heater goes off and stays off, and that was a big concern for me. I eventually settled on a "base board heater" which is very efficient and accurate.

Works great as a spot heater for the garage! It feels like you're standing in summer sunlight.
  
"Worked great... for five months" 2010-04-03
By Andrae Covington (Portland, OR)
This was a good heater while it lasted. I used it at my computer desk at home to supplement the furnace; often I just relied on this heater alone. I live in an old house with little to no insulation, so warming surfaces (including me) vs trying to warm the air seemed like the way to go. The brightness does take some getting used to, I placed mine on the floor off to the side. This heater uses a halogen heating element shining back towards the aluminum reflective dish, so as bright as it is, you are not looking directly at the halogen bulb unless you make a concerted effort at a strange angle. I used both the high and low settings as needed. If you have exposed skin within two or three feet of the heater (in direct line with the heat), the high setting will start to turn your skin red. I never had a problem while wearing long pants and long-sleeve shirts though. I did not use the oscillation feature as I was sitting in one place and always wanted the heat on me. If I got warm enough that it felt uncomfortable, I turned the heater off for a while. As my review title says, everything was great for about five months. Then I went to turn it on and saw a poof of light, then nothing; just like what usually happens when a light bulb burns out. I took the wire screen off so I could get a better look at the heating element, which sits behind a small aluminum disc. It is more robust than a typical halogen bulb, and appears to be hardwired. Clearly the manufacturer did not intend for consumers to replace the heating element. I checked their website and could not find replacement parts. One reviewer claimed the halogen element should last 3-5 years if you don't shake or move the heater around. Obviously this was not my experience. Pretty expensive for five months of use. There is a one-year warranty, but it does not include "5) Freight and Insurance cost for the warranty service." Right. By the time I paid to ship the thing to them... and presumably also paid for shipping the replacement back to me? ... might as well buy another one. Typical throw-away-society example. Disappointing, but not too surprising.

"non-dry heater" 2010-03-14
By KT (USA)
Excellent heater, especially if one is looking for a heater that does not dry-out the air in the room. Only con is the brightness, during nighttime while sleeping.
