The thermostat is rated at a max of 7.4 amps so will only support a 1750W heater. This won't work for my heater and it would have been nice to know when ordering it.

I used this thermostat in a small pumphouse to switch on a heat lamp to keep it from freezing in the winter. Works great.

Where do I begin? This heater is no heater at all. We bought it when our 30 year old wood heater became a hazard. Ordered it from our local lumber company. It does not heat 100sq. ft. much less 600 to 1000. The stay clear glass immediately became covered with soot and within one week the "Z" bar, baffle support fell out. Unable to get a response from the company during the holidays, we continued to try to heat with it. After a couple weeks, they finally called us back, and told us the airflow was affected due to the bar being out, and to just pop it back in. Finally got it back in, only to find it still did not heat well. After about three weeks it is out again. Just fell out while heater was in use. Not being loaded or wood being moved at all. I opened the door to find it lying in the opening. Am in the process to see if I have any recourse or any possibility of a refund!

I've been heating with this stove in Northern MI for two years and for the price it heats as well as stoves that cost three times as much. I should know, my parents both heat with Lopi stoves that are quite pricey in their 2 houses both similar in size to ours. While it doesn't heat the full 1700 sq ft of our house, it keeps the core area around the stove nice and warm and spreads at least a reasonable amount of heat throughout the house to knock off the chill in the distant areas. I would suggest burning only nicely seasoned hardwood in this stove as softwood and even softer hardwoods don't put out the heat. We burn red oak exclusively and can keep the core of our home, which is a 1930's farmhouse, between 65-75 even on bitterly cold winter days. One final suggestion, make sure you follow the chimney guidelines to the letter and install the minimum of 15 ft of chimney above the stove as if you cut corners with it the stove will not draft correctly and won't heat up to it's intended levels. I'd recommend this stove to anyone who wants a good, solid wood stove at a good price.

We purchased this wood stove a few months ago and are very disappointed. The blower is so loud you cant just sit and listen to the fire ( even on the lowest setting). The damper design does not let enough air to the fire so we have to leave the door cracked and cant leave the room and the gasket already fell off and had to be replaced. Do not get this stove. Also it would be nice to have a ash box.

Honest reviews on Vogelzang TR003 Highlander EPA Wood Stove

While the stove itself is great (owned it for the last 4-5 years) the blower heater has not worked properly for the last 3-4 years. It is terrible. When it does run it makes a terrible noise and only one of the fans works. We have taken it apart and cleaned it etc. to no avail.

We have this stove in a 600 sf room, and it hardly keeps the room warm. The opening is so small it's hard to get wood into. This stove was certainly a waste of money.

Think very hard before buying this machine. We bought it with the hope it might actually cool down a room, or at least keep a room comfortable, but alas nothing of the sort was achieved. Instead we are left with a frightfully noisy and large thing that fails simply does not work.

It is besides a very poorly engineered machine, demanding that one spends half an hour at a time just adding or subtracting one of the hoses depending on how hot it is outside. And then one is left to refit it to the window, which cannot be done without copious amounts of unsightly gaffer tape. The instruction guide is so idiotically conceived as to explain, with an entire page of the booklet, how to fit batteries into the remote, yet not a word was written on how to connect any of the hoses, nor how to adjust the vent.

It should be a crime that such a machine be allowed to be sold. Do yourself a favor and buy something, anything, else.

I've got this unit in my bedroom, it's a small room of about 300 square feet. I live in Florida and it's very hot and humid for a large portion of the year. Works great, it's quiet, I've got several fans and they all make much more noise than this unit does. Even my little 12 inch desktop Sylvania is louder. It's a quiet humming that doesn't disturb. Keeps the room cool and blows cold air. It can keep my room at below 70 even in 100+ degree weather.

The dual hose system is nice, but it's been too hot for me to use it much. The manual recommends using a single hose if the outside temp is above 95, and it has been for a while here. I have used it that way on a couple of occasions when the temperature dropped into the low 90s. It does cool faster with both hoses hooked up, but can effectively cool my room even with a single hose with no trouble. It just takes a few more minutes to cool off. Switching out hoses is simple and only takes a moment to do. You just twist one end into the back of the unit and insert the adapter end into the window mount. If using single hose mode, the intake vent should be covered with one of the supplied vent covers.

It's also not a huge power draw. Heating mode does take quite a bit, a little more than 1200 watts, but cooling is a little less than 1000 watts. It's about the same as running my PC.

The manual is horrible and it's not made clear that you may have to do a bit of cutting to the window mounts for the hoses to get them to fit your window frame. It's the worst thing about this product, but looking up the instructions for another similar unit online did fill in the holes the user manual for this unit had.

For example, I had to use the instructions from another company's similarly designed dual hose AC to discover that the intake vent should be covered when running in single hose mode. It's not mentioned in the manual at all. Another tip is to extend the end of the intake/exhaust hoses out a bit before trying to screw on the window exhaust/intake adapters. The manual doesn't mention it, but they don't screw on properly unless you extend the hose a little on the end.

I considered taking a star off for those issues, but the unit is good enough to forgive them. It wasn't difficult to figure out what to do just based on how the parts fit together. The initial installation instructions are the only area that suffered. Operating the unit once installed is clear enough. It doesn't explain how to hook up the hoses and the window mounting section. It's not hard to figure out, but it did cause a moment of frustration. Once I figured it out, it mounted into the window with no trouble aside from a bit of trimming on the plastic sliding section [no tape or extra materials required].

It's an excellent product, well designed, and it works as advertised. It won't cool off a house, but will keep a 350 square foot room comfortable with ease even in extremely hot weather. The instructions are poorly written and not nearly as detailed as they should be, but as I said, filling in the holes with a user's manual PDF from another dual hose AC was easy to do and filled in any information gaps left in the poorly written instructions. I shouldn't have needed to do that, but it's not a problem with the unit itself.

It's a great AC unit with a horrible user manual. Worth every cent I paid for it, and I really don't think poor technical writing justifies a ding in the score. The unit itself is exactly what it says it is, and does exactly what it says its supposed to.

No bad. Solid construction. My main need, though, was to sit here in the basement and not go up to nuke my coffee in the microwave avery ten minutes to keep my sips warm. This promised to be able to keep warm from the USB connection. Not so -not enough juice there, I guess -at least from my laptop. In the car it was fine. And don't expect it to warm up your drink from a colder state. It will only maintain status quo.

Ok, so this product actually topped my list for my husband this year. When going for a product that is used everyday (for coffee and tea drinkers) this one takes it full swing. He loved its features and its geek appeal. It is very nice quality and the red strip around it is actually quite comfortable and slip proof. Nice. The plugs work just as advertised, and it keeps coffee warm in the car (and desk) on winter days..

The only downside we saw to the mug was the lid is push on vs screw on, so there is the possibility it could spill or leak if knocked over that being said, we have been using it for about a month now, no spills.

Overall a great product. Great quality mug. Great features.

Honest reviews on Dual USB & 12V Heated Mug - BLUE

This is one of those products that will be can be rated anywhere from 1 to 5 depending on your needs. Assuming this product doesn't break, it will serve it's purpose for me. The USB DOES NOT keep coffee piping hot for an extended period of time, but when there is piping hot coffee going in, I can enjoy it for about the next hour. By the end of that hour it not hot as originally was, but still hot enough to be called hot. My cup of coffee is normally gone after an hour anyway. The heating mechanism basically serves the purpose of slowing down the natural heat loss from the cup of java. I hate the microwave, so I was looking for an at work solution to this age old dilema. I brought one of those insertable coils that broke on the first cup, so I'm hoping this doesn't break. So there is basically a progressive decrease in temperature over an hour or two, but 45 minutes later, I was still satisfied with a "relatively" warm-hot cup of coffee. If you need it piping hot as the initial minute or two, you might be disappointed. But I really hate when my coffee gets lukewarm, and I only need the heat for and hour or less, and until scientists invent a better solution, this will have to do. Oh, and I don't think this cup will turn likewarm coffee to hot or even nice and warm. Good looking cup though............

Not only does this mug keep drinks warm for quite some time on its own, but it reheats drinks that have gone cold. Ten minutes down the road with the charger plugged in, and your coffee/latte/tea is hot again -almost too hot, so be careful! Also, this mug fits in my VERY narrow cup holder without demanding that I wrestle it free to drink. I'd say 5 stars, except the charger imbued the packaged mug with a yucky petroleum smell that took some work to get out of the mug and lid (and is still there on the charger, but how do I wash that??).

After days of searching the web ,places like eBay ,Harbor frieght and many,many others i found this heater here on Amazon, the price was much better than the other sites for a btu rating of 30,000 and having a blower all ready installed , the heater was a little bigger than i thought it would be, but not a problem ,i purchased it for my 12x16 ft work shop,it was actually an over kill, even though my work shop is not insulated this heater will roast you out if turn up on high, i only have to set it at about the number 2 setting to make my shop nice and comfertable, the heater shipped reasonably quick, it did arrive with a small dent in the left front corner due to rough handling by ups, but was a minor fix bending it back to shape, the instalation was easy and the blu flame looks awsome burning, it is quite quiet when on and the blower is nice and quiet to, i had it hooked up to a 50lb tank and it has barely used any propane, this would be a very nice heater for in the home too as a back up or to help warm up a house on a chilly morning, im having a new house built this spring and you can bet that there will be one of these in it, i am very pleased with this hearter and i highly recommend it. i live in NE Pennsylvannia, and we get some very cold winters here, with this heater going i love to do my tinkering in my shop now on a cold winter's day, my buddies come over to hang in my shop now in the winter to shoot the bs and my girlfriend loves that theres no tracking up her floors now because us guys are all out in the shop, if your looking to save on your home heating bill this heater is the ticket, if you have a hunting cabin and need something better than a wood stove this heater is your ticket, although it does have a blower you do not need electric to use this stove. it also is versable in the means of it can be use with natural gas to, a very simple little change to convert it over from propane if you desire, all changes are in the hearter its self no going to the store to buy this and that, i give this heater both thumbs up, a very satisfied customer here Sure Heat 30,000 BTU Blue Flame Dual Fuel Gas Space Heater with Thermostat and Blower

The heater works great, I have no problems with it at all, I really love it, the blower when set on automatic starts up and then stays on for a short while after the heater goes off, but it is kind of loud. It was very easy to hook up, we had no problems with that, even came with the hook up line to hook it, it's a flexible line, (we replaced a old one that was broken). The only problem I had with this has nothing to do with the workings the heater itself, it's grill that goes on the front of it that was broken when we got it, it doesn't effect the heater any at all, just a little safety feature. I contacted the company and after several emails back and forth, they sent me out a replacement, or so I thought! The grill was way too small, so I sent off another email to the company and have not heard a word from them about it. I told them that if they sent me out the shipping label I would send one the 'new one' that is way too small back to them, like I said, I have not heard a word from them and that was on Oct., 23, 2012, probably won't hear back at them if it's taken this long! I love the heater, but would like the company even more if they would just either read their emails and replace the wire screen for the heater or just tell me that I'm not getting one to replace it, that the warranty doesn't cover it, (which it should!), it's suppose to come with a one year warranty I believe. I ordered the heater on the 24th. of Sept., and it came shortly after that, but like I said, after receiving the wrong replacement part, I contacted Sure Heat again and have not heard a word from them at all, I would recommend the heater, it does heat very well and works really great, but if I'm having this kind of problem with the company, I think I would order from another company if I'm wanting to ever replace it. ***I just wanted to update everyone about the company, I DID finally get email from them today, 11/12/12 and they said they never got my email I sent on the 23rd. of Oct., and asked if I still wanted a replacement, I replied to them that yes I still would like a replacement and if they sent a shipping label I would send the smaller one back we had received. This was just a little while again and I will keep updating as progress is being made. I did tell the gentleman that had wrote to me that I would correct this review, (I had sent them a copy with the link for this review), and as promised I am keeping my word on that. So, let's see what happens.***//****UPDATE-12/15/12****I received the new replacement today as promised, since that was the only problem I had with this heater, I have upgraded the stars to a 5 star rating! This heater is better at heating then I expected! It's not been down below zero here yet, but so far on the lower 20 degrees outside, the highest number we turn up to on the knob is around the number 2! I would certainly recommend this heater if you're looking for a great heater with a blower included that really warms the place up! And I want to say a personal thank you to 'JR' for handling the email part of the messages to straighten this up.

I purchased this heater due to the great price with blower and thermostat options. I did not pay much attention to the other reviews mentioning the poor packaging and assembly issues. the day that my stove arrived I opened the box to find 4 small peices of foam ment to hold the entire heater during shipment. after opening the box i noticed that the glass had fallen into the heater and i needed to take it apart and reinstall. after doing all of that I went to turn the heater on and the knob on top was broken so I was not able to use. placed an exchange with amazon. hopefully 2nd is better.

Pleasant Hearth 1,200 Square Feet Wood Burning Stove, Small
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars

Pickiest stove in the world. Have had it for 2 years now, barely keeps the 950 sq. ft. house at 68 degrees. Unless you have lots of dead standing trees to throw in it, it doesn't burn hot. 90% of the time, you have to get it started by leaving the door cracked open about an inch or two to get a fire started (on and off for hours some days), or restarted when throwing in more wood. Forget about anything that may be slightly damp or not totally 100% dried out, it will NOT burn. Just smolder to death and cause lots of cresote in your chimney. When you do get it finally going, it burns about 2-3 hours before needing wood to put in it. DOES NOT burn overnight 6-8 hours like advertised. I load it down every night about 11pm, and on the dot I wake up at 3am when the furnace kicks on (I keep it at 65 degrees) to load it down again. I burn mostly oak, walnut, ash and occasionally locust and poplar. The insulation brick seems to suffocate it more than anything, but don't want to remove it cause the design of it may let flames through and catch any cresote on fire in the chimney. I can fit logs up to about 16" in it comfortably, but keep a few 3-4 inch pieces to keep as fillers when loading it down for the night. The angle of the top makes it difficult to get more than 3 (4"-5" logs) in at a time. Messiest thing in the world when it comes to cleaning it. No matter how delicate or easy you are, the door tends to blow out ashes every time it starts to get full. I usually have to clean mine out every 2-3 days if temperatures stay in the 20s to 30s. When it does get below 40 degrees (yes 40), it has a hard time keeping up with dropping temps in the overnight hours. I saved and saved for a stove, and now I am stuck with this one until I can get a bigger, more efficient user friendly model. Only positive thing I can say is that when it does burn hot, its wonderful, and has saved me money on heating costs ($230 a month down to $85 on average). I recommend buying a stove bigger than what you need (which I thought I did), and not a pleasant hearth, its just way to finicky.

good stove for the money, easy to install, the insulation around the door was damaged but customer service was quick to send repair cement for it. As expected, it is not easy to get a fire to burn very long.

It does heat a large family room and more quite well, in spite of vaulted ceilings.

This coffee maker has been terrific. I researched coffee makers online, and wanted a machine that consistently reached the proper water temp and quickly made coffee. The coffee is hot and stays hot in the carafe. It quickly makes the 8 cups, and automatically shuts off. I like that all the coffee grounds are saturated, as the water comes out in a broad pattern. My husband also thinks it makes a better cup of coffee than our previous machine.

The Bonavita just arrived. Haven't even turned it on, Looks GREAT even though the outer carton was damaged; the contents survived.

I am (was *) upset that the Gold Tone Filter does not fit this machine. This was importaint!

Just makes no sense to package a Gold 'basket type' filter with a high quality coffee maker that only accepts '#4 cone type' filters! Does it?

The coffee cups received are different than shown.

They're ...almost as nice as the ones pictured, so I won't make this a big deal.

The ceramic Hario and Hario paper filters are a nice plus.

If you set this heater on high it will give you way too much heat for one bathroom, unless it is a bigger than average bathroom. I initially used it in my bedroom, but again, too much heat, so I now use it on the stair landing, which is open to below and it still manages to warm-up the space without the heat concentrating too much -I don't like warm spaces, I'm just looking the tone-down the cold, and this does the job very nicely... but I've gotten the same results from heaters a lot less expensive than this.

Two things to consider: it is NOT "quiet operation". The fan is actually pretty noisy I can hear it all the way down to the kitchen, when it's on I put on music to drown the fan sound.

Secondly, unless you screw it onto the wall, it will come off just by the fan vibration, and forget trying to use a hairdryer or any other appliance using the extra outlet, the hardware to hold it in place is just too flimsy. Since I don't want it as a permanent fixture, I found my own way to hold it in place (using an outlet cover -this actually works better the hardware provided) but I still put my left hand on it when I turn it on or off to keep it from jumping off the wall.

This heater is really fantastic! It mounts on a wall socket in just second, and is removable just as fast. We heat a 16 X 12 three season room with just one of these heaters!

I agree with the Jan 18, 2005 review; the heater does not stay in the wall outlet. It falls out when you turn the knob to turn it off/on or after a few seconds on (from vibrations). It was our second time purchasing this model; the first one from a couple of years ago did not have this problem.

Honest reviews on Seabreeze Off the Wall ThermaFlo Bathroom Heater

I had doubts that this heater could keep our bedroom warm

all night, but the gas company wanted $3000 to install a

wall heater. So we gambled on $50+ and installed the

Seabreeze. It took about three minutes to install it and

a couple of nights to find the ideal temperature setting.

Now it quietly holds the room at a comfortable temperature

all night.

This would have received five stars except for the thermostat,

which is a bit temperamental. Sometimes it would turn on the heater immediately after setting it manually to a position which turned it off.

I would rate this with minuses if I could. I used it for a short period of time, perhaps 30 or so times at the most to top off my bathroom so I could shower comfortably. This morning I tried to use it and IT BURST INTO FLAMES! SO glad I was standing right next to it when that happened! It has never been dropped or kicked or damaged or mistreated in any way. I have used many electric space heaters and never had anything like this happen before. It stank up my whole apartment and would have burned it badly if I had turned it on and walked away. Thank God I didn't with my daughter, her husband and two precious grandchildren right upstairs, I'm so glad I didn't walk away from this horrible heater after I turned it on this morning!
