I got one of these last year because i wanted a strong heater in a small package, small footprint, to use in my bathroom, because the built in heater stopped working. It's perfect for heating a small room like that. Then i got another one for my bedroom, it's quiet, strong, and small, it fit into a small space near the bed. Then, i got a third one for the living room. The living room is a large room, and i use the heater like a small fire place, it really pumps out the heat. It's not going to heat the whole living room, but sitting next to it feels like sitting next to a small fire for warmth, very pleasant, not too hot when close to it, just a nice strong warmth. In the living room, the central heating doesn't do that well heating the lower part of the room on a cold night, the heat rises and it can be set on a high temperature and still be cold where we sit, so we use these heaters to warm up our space, nice source of heat, very portable, lightweight, sturdy. No complaints, it's perfect for what i use it for.

This is a handy little heater that serves its intended purpose well heating a small room. I use it to take the chill off my computer room which is not usually heated like the rest of the house since I'm not in there all that often. The unit itself is plastic with a metal grille, but it feels very sturdy and well made. The fan noise level is acceptable. It is far from silent, but is quiet enough that it doesn't interfere. The controls are straight-forward. One dial is the power dial which has 4 settings: Off Fan Low High. The other dial is the thermostat with an infinite range of settings between and +. (I've found that just below the halfway point is very comfortable, but then again, the winters in California aren't exactly subarctic)I'd recommend this for anyone with a small area to heat. a bedroom, computer room, sewing room, etc. (mine's in a room about 12 foot square). I doubt it would efficiently heat a room that was too much larger.
Follow up review Nov 2011: I just plugged this item in for what will be the 5th winter season. It works as great at it did when I bought it. Still a great item and highly recommended.

Here's my review of the Lasko 754200.
Update: 09 Feb 2009. I have learned to sleep with the fan noise of this space heater. However, I'm a very heavy sleeper.
Update: 26 Feb 2009. I am keeping this Lasko heater in the living room. I have bought another heater for my 8' x 10' guest bedroom, the Optimus H-5210 Infrared Quartz Radiant Heater available here on Amazon. The Optimus is virtually silent, and takes a bit longer to heat a room that has a ceiling fan (from 60 degrees, it takes a couple hours to truly heat the room up to 70 degrees), and that's fine with me.
Update: 08 March 2009. I am very happy with my Optimus in the guest bedroom!
Honest reviews on Lasko 754200 Ceramic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat
Have had this heater for nearly four years and it has sustained 3 moves with me. Still works great and heats bedroom effectively.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Lasko 754200 Ceramic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat
Lasko warms nicely but thermostat is such that heater stays on a long time (5 minutes or more) but doesn't come back on for a long time, maybe 30-60 minutes. It's the opposite of another heater I have which comes on frequently for a short time each cycle. So with the Lasko you get almost too warm by the time the thermostat shuts it off, but temperature in room has to drop quite a bit for the thermostat to turn it back on. I find myself manually turning it on and off via thermostat.
