I rent a 100+ year old home in Pittsburgh, PA, with terrible windows and bad winters. I've tried more room heaters than I can count, but I like this one a lot. Since there isn't a fan, it's silent, so there's no white noise. It's pretty tall, but it's thin and is on wheels, so you can move it around easily and find a good place to put it. It heats up very quickly, and keeps my living room warm. Highly recommended.

I bought this product in 2008 and used in steadily for nearly 2 years during two winters in the Pacific Northwest. Our winters are relatively mild, but my apartment has poor insulation. I have mixed opinions about this heater. On one hand, it is compact and can really add heat to a small space. On the other hand, I don't think it is designed or intended for long-term use. Bear in mind that I'm not an electrician, so my comments are only based on observation without a lot of context or training. Beginning about 1.5 years after purchase, the front panel appeared to degrade and would "glow" in certain spots - visible only if the lights were off. I don't think this was a true defect, but (as a guess) simply due to the sustained level of electricity / current and some amount of degradation in the wiring due to long-term constant use. Finally, just a few days ago, when I turned the heater on, something overloaded and a massive shower of blue electric sparks rained out of the heater where the cord connects to the plastic base. Although nobody was injured and there was no fire, the cord was severed / melted and the unit is now inoperable. I can't say what the cause was; there had been no "trauma" to the heater and nothing was wrong with the cord prior to this incident. Just old age, I guess. Anyway, it is now heading for the landfill....I need to buy something similar that has a longer life expectancy. If you're looking for something "safe" over longer periods of time, I'd keep looking. Just my honest two cents.

I bought this for my father last winter. It works well in a small bedroom or if you're sitting fairly close to it but in the living room, it doesn't quite do the job. The pros are that it's quiet and has a nice contemporary design. We've had no problems with odor and this still works a whole year later!

I enjoyed my first one so much that I purchased a 2nd one to use in my son's room full-time 2 years ago. These both work great for me. I did spill something one on one of them, it smelled for a bit. But I've had 2 other smaller DeLonghi products putter out on me.

Absolutely quite, energy efficient and effective. Since we got this heater, we are really happy because it produces NO noise whatsoever, heats up the room real well, does not have a fan so the hot air does not get blown towards you, but spread out across the room evenly. 5 star product.
