Review of Honeywell HZ2300 Honeywell Heater

Customer Ratings:

I use this under my desk at work and it's exactly what I wanted. Variable speed, not too loud, quick to heat. The temperature gauge feature is nice too, as is the auto shutoff in case it tips over.

Best Deals for Honeywell HZ2300 Honeywell Heater

Positive:

+ The heater will probably work well for at least a month.

+ It oscillates well.

+ The auto-off tip alert does work, but is very sensitive. If it is bumped, the lights in the room will flicker due to the power fluctuation until it situates. This is as opposed to my previous heater (a Holmes) that just shut it self off until I turned it on again.

Negative:

As another reviewer mentioned, this heater has a "child proof cap" style control knob. After approx. two months of gentle handling (because it was obvious that the heater was made with terribly cheap parts) I could no longer turn the heater off because the threads on the cap had worn off. In the end I had to unplug it to turn it off and stop using it.

After two weeks the fan blade started to make squealing sounds at random times. By the time the control knob broke, it had become quite loud. I never shook, dropped, hit or ever moved the heater. It was only set to oscillate for about one minute when it first arrived. It was another sign that this heater is cheaply made.

Honest reviews on Honeywell HZ2300 Honeywell Heater

We have one tiny bathroom without a heater. My old Holmes, which worked so well, finally died. I bought this Honeywell to replace the Holmes, and discarded the packaging or it would have been returned.

First, the Settings knob is the push-and-turn type, and when you press on it and turn it, it just keeps going around and around, Second, even if you turn the heat setting (the second knob) all the way up, the heater turns off after about three second (I actually timed it). Then, if you're lucky, five or ten minutes later, you'll get another brief blast of heat. Third, for the fan function to work, the room has to be as warm as the heater setting, which doesn't make any sense at all. Fourth, the whole unit oscillates, sending blasts of heat around in an arc.

I've been buying space heaters for that small bathroom for the twenty years I've been in this house, and the six dollar Rite-Aid heater I bought in a pinch two years ago worked better than this thing.

This is a nice small heater. It does everything that Honeywell says it does.

The only trouble I had was pushing down the child protection button. It does take quite a bit of strength
