The first review I gave for the Homebasix Milkhouse heater was a good review. However, now that I have owned two of them for awhile, I have had to revise my opinion downward. The first heater arrived in great condition and worked great for awhile but after a few months, the thermostat began to stick, the heater would stay on and not turn off until I manually turned the knob. The second heater arrived somewhat beat up because the heater box itself was not packed into another box. This second heater has never been reliable because the thermostat would completely fail and and the heater would not come on at all. The heaters were so inexpensive that I just dumped both of them. When they work, they put out good heat but when they don't work, they either overheat or don't heat at all. I hope no one bought this heater based on my former review. So, I'm still looking for a reliable milkhouse heater like the old ones they made 20 years ago.

There were several heaters of differing price ranges that I looked at but I chose this for the price and the basic features and am very happy with it. It is a simple heater with simple safety features, and it is solidly constructed and very quiet when operating. It is much quieter than other milkhouse heaters I have seen and it also has a fan setting that just blows cool air, which is perfect for my office because sometimes I just need some air circulating and sometimes I need to warm up the office. The tipover safety feature works well (I only tested it to see if it works) but I guess it also turns off when it gets too hot. I like it and it does everything I need.
