we picked this one because it was silent (no fan) and had a temperature control with an on/off switch.
i use this in my daughter's room because the existing baseboard heater no longer functions well.
attactive-quiet-easy to use and economical.
actually, cr rated a different model (hz519) but this is exactly the same but has knobs not digital controls and is half the price.
- adjustable thermostat
out of the box it is nice, compact and lightweight.
buddy heater doesn't function over 7000 ft.
easy to use.
one downside is its size and another is no temp control.
the remote control is a big plus !
my guest have the remote control right by them and can always change the heat accodrding to their wants.
be sure to read the directions to set up the timer and temperature properly.
the remote comes close to an auto start function, unless my bath door is closed or i forget.
a big draw was the digital (readout) thermostat, timer, and oscillating functions.
the fan function works great forcing the heat where it's needed.
i'll come back next year to update you, but so far it functions like a fantastic little heater.
very easy to install and operate.
i installed mr.
i have owned mr heaters since 1992, they are durable and easy to use, the only con is each burner is not independantly controlled.
each time you turn it on, you have to push several controls to get back to where you like it, with this heater, you just turn it on.
the only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is that the controls are accessible to little fingers.
since the control is analog it doesn't reset on power failure.
it was super easy to set up and i love it.
however, you may need to hang a box fan up near the ceiling or install a ceiling fan to circulate the heat back down, it puts out a strong trickle of heat in a 360 degree radius that is easy to
i had been looking for some kind of a heater for the garage and after taking back 3 heaters to wal-mart for poor quality control, had about given up on finding something the works well.i had bought 2
excellent product, easy install and set up, no baseboard should be without it, a real energy saver.
easy and quick installation.
the install was easy as 1-2-3 (actually, 3 wires and screw to studs).
other than that, they are easy to handle (relatively light weight) which makes them easy to install in your home.
i decided to install one of these heaters in the closet (120v version) and a few minutes after turning it on that closet was hot as a sauna!
it was because a piece of plastic burr was getting in the rotation of the fan.also, unit will sometimes overheat and shut off - you won't know until you wake up in the cold.one-button control means
the only issue is that you can't trust the temporature control.
the temperature control is so-called "one-button" control.
we are extremely pleased with the product design, ease of use, and overall performance.
they are adjustable in 5 degree increments, which seem to be accurate in terms of actual temp, but it would be nice to have the option of setting it for each degree in between.
i love this heater and it is really easy to use.
i am very satisfied with my purchase because of its many functions that i do not find any other products which can be compared to this one.it really depends on how you want it.
easy to carry to any space, not bulky.
temp control thermostat, 1-2-4-8 hour timer, oscilation, and energy saver mode.
the pro's to this heater are the weight,caster wheels, remote control to control timing and temperature.
its remote control makes operation very convenient while the red lcd temperature number makes it very convenient to see even when you're in bed.
it's simple to operate, and the controls are upfront where you can see them, and reach them, without stooping.
the remote control is what makes this an instant favorite for me.
the remote control works very accurate and the thermometer
we have only one heat control for our furnace.
i had been using the non remote control digital vortex heater for years now and love it.
i just picked up a sony flat-screen unknowing that lowering the volume on the tv's remote lowers the temperature control on the heater.
it has a remote control, which i am finding quite convenient, it is spoiling me.
in terms of function though you can get the exact same results by buying the much cheaper (about half price) original vornado without the remote.
i did not install it as the instructions say because i only use the heater by itself, not with any other appliances and i unplug them after each use.
ease of installation, however you do need to have a wall outlet in a desired location
this little heater is worth the money.compact and quiet with adjustable heating makes this the perfect bathroom accessory.
(just make sure you follow the installation instructions exactly.) as far as the extra socket, i have a lamp plugged into one of them and as long as the heater stays on low, i have no problems at all.
all night, but the gas company wanted $3000 to install a
the only negative is that it's on the floor with the controls on the bottom, a long way to stoop to turn it on or off, so i wish it had a remote.
silent and effective with good controls.
very simple to use plus good safety features.
i also don't use the oscillating function.
the two dials on the soleus' base give me the flexibility to control duration of the heat (up to 120 minutes), the distribution of the heat (oscillating), and the temperature in a very safe and
the best additional function is that it automatically shuts off if it falls or tips over.
the choice of opeating modes--lo, high, low-thermostatically controlled, and high-thermstatically controlled--offers me flexibility to meet varing conditions.
those 2 units had remote controls and could only be set at 5 degree intervals 60 65 70 75 80.
i have a bh3950-u that uses the dial controls, which is not precise enough to set temperature.
pros: easy to use, quiet, safe around active pets.
they are very easy to move to another location if you want to.
great control features, too...and a the temp readings and thermostat seem accurate.
the temperature control is a wonderful feature as well, we end up using this instead of our gas heat in the house (it ends up being cheaper).
the controls have a power button, a low button, a high button, and several temperature settings.
this product is everything that it says it is..it heats the area designated, has two controls and the fire itself looks very real..it reminds me of my old wood stove..its a joy to watch and also to
it is totally enjoyable to sit in front of this at night and watch the "flames." there is no remote control with this particular heater and that was not made clear in the description.
it is a 240v heater and requires a hardwired installation so is a little bit of a pain but i wired everything up and had an electrician friend come check out my work before i turned it on and all was
prior to installing this unit i was using a monitor kerosene heater which was plagued with mysterious 'shut-downs'.
thermostatically controlled fan will cycle on and off until the ambient temperature is above 55 or so, then will run continuously until reaching desired temp.
after installing the heater and powering it up, in about 10 minutes the chill is gone from the space.
this thing is so easy to use, the flame looks great (kind of bizarre actually - i forget it's fake) and in a short time it really heats the whole room quite comfortably.
so if you're not comfortable with the idea of installing your own replacement parts you might want to find another option.
pros: looks niceeasy to install cons: noisy operationthermostat inconveniently located on rear the bottom line: spend a little more money for a heater with quieter more reliable operation.
