Review of New - Twin Window Fan by Lasko

Customer Ratings:

I wanted an inexpensive haust fan to remove smoke from the room. This does the job and the noise is minimal. I would buy again if all you want is a simple fan that does the job without breaking the bank.

I thought this was going to help my life be easier, to draw the cool air into the room, or vent the hot air out of the room.

I have to turn the fan in the window, front to back, etc. It does not lock into the window, I actually have had to place a large planted pot in front of it to keep it steady and not falling over. Would I buy this specific fan....no. I do think there is another fan that gives you the options of having the fan blow into the room or out of the room, just by turning a dial.

Oh yes, when having to turn the fan, its hard to hold onto, and often slips out of my hands. Cumbersome.

I can't believe how quickly the log set arrived! It is just what we wanted since we cannot use our firerplace for a real fire. It does provide supplemental warmth and we enjoy watching it as do our cats. Our only problem was that we plugged it into an outlet that serviced our TV, several lights, etc., and when I turned the controls to their highest position, we had darkness!! We have an older house and had not thought about the wiring. The log set now has its own outlet and line. Thank you for a good product, good service, and a great price!!

Arrived super fast. Easy: just pull out of the box and plug in. I live in a mission-style 1926 apt that formerly had natural gas inserts. To sub fire, I bought this. Potentially cheesy on its own, it morphs into an almost glorious scene (to disguise the Lego-look, I camouflaged with an attractive fireplace screen.) Keeps the room slightly warmer (9'x14') so not a big game changer in the heat dept. Remote control fake fire does kick some butt during rainy Seattle months. Good value for added ambiance.

looks nice in a unused fireplace but the heat from the heater is not for a 13 by 12 living room so dont think it will keep you warm on winter here in Indiana if you want a nice look for your fire place then go for should be 99.00 dollars because of the not so good heat out put!!

While this blanket certainly heats well, the location of the controls right in the middle of the blanket means that you're always fighting the wires and trying to get them out of the way. Also, the slightest bump changes the setting on the controls, so you frequently turn them higher or lower or even on and off without wanting to. I'm surprised that the manufacturer let this very poor design off the factory floor.

This is a nice blanket. It warms up reasonably fast and provides an even heat over the entire blanket area. The only thing I would change is where the power cord attaches to the blanket. The cord comes out in the middle of the blanket on one of the narrower sides. So, if you have the blanket over you in the long direction, from your shoulders to your feet, the cord comes out by either your neck or feet. Because of my wall outlet location, the cord has to be by my neck, which can be a nuisance. I think it would be much better if the cord came out one of the corners instead.

We got this blanket for Christmas and it actually works really, really well. There are three heat settings, plus it turns off after 3 hours so you don't have to worry about burning yourself or getting overly sweaty throughout the night. We actually DID save money on our power bill last winter (January was almost $40 lower than December!). It was pretty amazing. We're actually excited for winter again so we can use it. Very comfortable and very pretty looking on the bed the ivy color matches our drapes!

Honest reviews on Sunbeam Microplush Throw Blanket

Very pleased with my Sunbeam microplush electric throw. It warms up very quickly and then somehow adjusts to the temperature of your body. The warmth is even and consistent. DOES NOT feel like a thermostat is going on and off to adjust. All over warmth. I can equate the comfort to taking out a towel from a warm clothes dryer on a very cold day. The throw is not as soft as a microplush blanket because let's face it, it's an electric blanket and it has very supple wires inside...but you really can't feel them. The thermostat control doesn't look like the one pictured. It is long and is very easy to operate. One button changes the temperature from low to medium to high. Has a 3 hour shut off which is really convenient for kids who forget to shut it off or when sleeping. A couple of reviewers said that the plug was in the middle of the blanket, which is not so. The plug is positioned at the BOTTOM of the blanket in the middle. I don't find it to be in the way at all...also the electrical cord is sufficiently long enough to accommodate outlets behind a couch. Like it so much, I just ordered another one for my son who thinks the one I just got for myself, is his :) You won't regret this purchase!

I got this for my girlfriend for Christmas since she is always cold in the winter time.

Long story short, she ended up spending the majority of the winter curled up underneath it.

It warms up quickly, and kept her nice and toasty even when we turned down the heat to save on utilities.

Also, those who complain about the cord coming apart have not connected it properly. There is a plastic latch which when clipped in keeps the cord securely in place.

This one is recommended for bathrooms (Guessing that means smaller rooms that are closed while occupied.) Certainly doesn't have the heat output that the larger units do, but more than adequate for the average bathroom. It would easily heat a medium size bedroom.

I would never know this heater was made in China. The build quality is standard appliance grade--like a washing machine or dryer. I have been using it for a year now and it still works fine. No thermostadt--it's just on or off. Efficient. Good for a bathroom, bedroom, etc.

***BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK***

I purchased this DeLonghi PAC A120E a year ago when my wife and I needed a stand up air conditioner unit. I should have read the reviews here because it started leaking water all over our carpet and hardwood floor. This unit has been in operation for 3 months and it has broken down and has ruined a 150 dollar carpet. I have tried to contact the customer service for DeLonghi but it is useless. The nearest service center is 75 miles away from my house and is NOT open on weekends. The company does not pay for shipping or send a technician out. DeLonghi is unwilling to help or provide any kind assistance in this matter. Why should they? They already got paid. Our local repair shop will not touch these units and will cost about 200 dollars to replace the part. Please keep in mind this unit is still in warrantee. We are left with a VERY EXPENSIVE PIECE OF JUNK (a 700 dollar piece of junk). They say it is NOT their policy to ship or pay for shipping to their service center. Its a great scam. If I could give this product a negative number I would. SAVE YOUR MONEY. I will NEVER buy a DeLonghi product again. I just want to reiterate what an absolute inconvienece this is. It is the hottest week of the summer and my thermostat has reached 93 in my living room. So, thanks DeLonghi for that. I'm sweating as I type this and I bet your CEO is sitting somewhere very cool and perspiration free.

PS. I am not exaggerating and have not had any previous problems with DeLonghi, but they have been awful to deal with.

This unit does the job advertised, I will admit that. It does cool a room very well. In fact, it keeps the back half of our house nice and cool.

The downside is that it leaks like crazy. Even with the dehumidifier off. And I live in El Paso, not exactly a humid area of the country.

The problem seems to mostly stem from the fact that unlike most similar units, the internal tank is not removeable. This means you can not drain the water off before it overflows the tank.

To make it worse, there is a drain hole in the rear of the unit. But hooking up a hose does not good. It seems it is only made to drain the unit at the end of the season, not for routine use. This places it to high in the tank to actually drain.

We are seeing roughly a gallon of water a day leaking from this unit. I just wish I had looked here before I bought it.

Best Deals for DeLonghi PAC A120E 12,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner

Yes this unit leaks like crazy.

Here's the problem (and a solution). There are two reservoirs in which water is stored, an upper and a lower. The lower reservoir has an auto-shutoff if the water level gets too high the AC unit shuts off so it doesn't overflow. Water is supposed to trickle down from the upper reservoir to the lower. The upper reservoir has no auto-shutoff. Here's the problem dust collects in the upper reservoir preventing water from moving to the lower reservoir. When this happens the water has no place to go so it causes the unit to leak onto the ground.

Here's a solution to the problem that I found helps. Turn off the unit and unplug it. When facing the front of the unit remove the left side panel (there are about 6 screws that need to be removed and then the panel slides off). Inside the unit on the left side you will see a small white tray with a hole in the middle this is the upper reservoir. Dust is collecting in that small hole. Using a hand vacuum and a drinking straw can remove a lot of the dirt. Tape the straw so the vac only sucks through the straw like an vacuum attachment. Then just vacuum in the hole and hope that it gets most of the dust. You may need to do this every couple of weeks as dust builds.

We are on our second Pinguino after our first machine leaked on our carpet. We returned the unit now the second machine leaks aproximately 4 pints of water a day. Delonghi know they are selling a defective product. When you call customer service there is a promt for Penguinuo air conditioners!

They refuse to do anything about replacing this unit at no cost to me.

As posted under some one else's review. As you're facing the unit's front, remove the left panel by removing the two screws under the handle and the four screws covered with caps, then pull down on the panel and it should come off:

As my unit started to leak as well, I came here looking for solutions. I'm certain that this is the issue. When I opened the side panel, with a flash light, I could see that this small hole inside the white plastic "cup" was filled with dust and Pug hair (we have 2). So I took a pick and was able to clean out was clumped up and removed the rest with the straw and vacuum method. From my estimation, this accumulated over about 5 months of on and off use over a period of about a year and a half. Also, I vacuumed up the side radiator, as it also had accumulated dust and hair.

I've got it running now and I'll report back if this indeed fixed the problem. I will also try to take pictures.

Update Its fixed, ran for several hours, no leaks. Take a look at the video I posted, it was for sure the clogged hole causing the issue. Also, not sure how much the bottom tank holds, but at least it will turn off automatically when that tank gets full. Hope this helps everyone out. Hate to see people think they're wasting their money.

Use caution. I take ZERO responsibility if you damage your unit.

Cheap 12V, Travel Mug, Stainless Steel

Customer Ratings:

I have had many kinds of 12v mugs. Most have been poor quality and inexpensive. I decided to buy what looked like a new design and was 3-4 times more expensive than any I had previously purchased. I WAS WRONG!!! The design was new but the effectiveness of the product was sadly lacking. To the touch it felt warm on the inside. but it did not have the capability of keeping even very warm coffee warm. I had tried it for even 2 hours and the contents going in warm came out practically cold. I bought two cups--so it was not just one defective cup. I returned them to Amazon! :(

I saw this RoadPro mug in a Pilot Truck Stop so figured if truckers buy it it must work. Wrong. My coffee woluld stay warmer sitting in the sun. USB 5v doesn't do a thing. The 12v from the car not much better. I had a $6 12v mug from Walmart that kept the coffee hot but it only lasted 6 months and was only a christms item. I'll wait.

Heating is very weak, but it does heat (sort of). Mine had a leak in the bottom when I received it, which I repaired, assuming it was a fluke and not just poorly made. I am not terribly impressed with this mug, but it does keep hot drinks from getting completely cold. It doesn't do much more than that.

Honest reviews on 12V, Travel Mug, Stainless Steel

The coffee is very hot for a long time and the USB is very convenient to use. My problem with the cup is that it drips when you drink from it. The lid is on tight and the coffee is not higher than the bottom of the lid. I wanted to email you about this problem but maybe this is enough to get a response.

Overall the cup functions well as a cup. Don't expect much beyond that. Heating element draws too much power causing USB ports on PC's to report a 'over current' situation on a USB port and then deactivates that port. Also blows fuses in the car. You get what you pay for.

Best Sunbeam SFH8111 Oscillating Heater Fan with Remote Control Deals

Customer Ratings:

I bought this heater at Lowes on 10/4/09. I took it home and assembled it according to the instructions and turned it on. The heater kicked off within 30 seconds and the overheat light started blinking. I turned it off and unplugged it for a few minutes and tried again. I never could get the heater to stay on for more than 20 or 30 seconds at a time. The next day I returned it to Lowes, and when I began to tell the lady at Customer Service the problem, she just nodded and said "yeah, I know, we get a lot of these returned for that reason". Instead of getting a refund and buying a different brand (which I should have done), I exchanged it for the same heater. The second heater worked fine, for about 2.5 months and then started having problems again. Tonight I haven't been able to get the heater to stay on and the overheat light keep flashing again. I am going to try to return this to Lowes in the morning, but since Lowes only has a 90 day return policy and it has been about 93 days since I got the second heater I hope they will let me exchange it for a different brand heater. I wouldn't recommend this heater at all after all the problems I have had with it.

I'm sorry to hear that the previous reviewer didn't like it, but I have one that I also bought at Lowes and I think it's great. We have it in our VERY large, 550 square foot family room, and it warms up the place nicely within a 10 minutes. Now, mind you, I have central heat, but that room is always colder than the rest of the house, due to it's size and the number of windows, and I bought it to warm it up more since I have a baby daughter who likes to crawl on the carpet where it's coldest. If you're looking at this to be a replacement (temporary or permanent) for a complete lack of central heating, it's not going to do the job.

It has two heat settings (low and high), a tip-over sensor and it oscillates, which is nice for spreading the heat around the room.

As a supplemental heater or one for the cold nights, it's great. In fact, that's how I ended up at Amazon... Lowes is out of them, and I'm going to buy two more to replace the energy-hog oil heaters that I have in those rooms... I hope this helped!

I bought this at Lowe's, for the same price at amazon to hold me over until my central heating gets turned on. I live in an older house probably 1950's design with cinder-block outer walls, a tile floor in my living room and poor insulation so take that into account with this review. This heater is small about two feet tall and says rated for medium size rooms on the box. When first turned on there was a strong plastic smell but it dissipated after about 10 minutes. I currently have this in my small/medium living room and have to this about 3 feet away from me as the fan blows really low. I feel warmer but only enough to take the edge off, not freezing, but not entirely comfortable. With the built-in fan its as loud as a medium oscillating fan. Overall its ok for the price but don't expect anything spectacular.

Honest reviews on Sunbeam SFH8111 Oscillating Heater Fan with Remote Control

Don't buy this heater. I'm not sure I'd buy another sunbeam product actually. Just like the other reviews, my heater worked for a while and then started shutting off while the light around the temperature adjustment would flash. If you move the unit it may or may not come back on. The temperature display sometimes comes on and sometimes it doesn't. It lasted one short season and after that, its been nothing but a headache. Basically the warranty covers its initial use and it sounds like after that the majority of these die.

Review of Holmes HCT460-U Home Base Transformable Tower Heater

Customer Ratings:

Just bought this unit. The design is quite nice as far as being able to rotate the vents and the flexibility to have one down, one up, both down or both up. You can set the desired temperature, but you should know that you can only set it to 60, 65, 70, 75, or 80. That's it. Nothing in between those. The main problem I have with this unit, and it is going back tonight for a replacement, is that my room is 64 degrees, and the unit won't go on until I set it to 75. And even at that, it shuts off after the room gets to about 65 or 66. To me, it seems like the thermostat is off by about 10 degrees.

The thermostat never works. It won't turn on no matter what temperature is set. Asked Amazon for a replacement. The replacement was even worse. Thermostat was off more than 10 degrees, plus one of the towers was broken. Had to send it back for refund. The only good thing is Amazon's service.

it is effective and somewhat stylish. however, it severely dries out the air, and leaves a twinge of plasticity in the air... not recommended for a bedroom (which I tried first) but will work in a draftier setting, like a living room or garage...

Honest reviews on Holmes HCT460-U Home Base Transformable Tower Heater

I purchased this product a year ago and it has worked wonderfully in my finished basement. It keeps the whole room heated very well if I leave the door to the upstairs closed. Guests really appreciate the warmth since the basement traditionally is very cold.

We're now using it at our office because of the very cold weather and it's doing a great job keeping the heat even throughout the back of the office (and I sit next to a large drafty window).

I don't have any problems with the temperature. Our office stays steady at 74, except in my area, but I can set it to 75 and the temp feels like the rest of the office.

I also have very dry hands in the office and I feel no difference when this heater has been used the past two days here. Everyone in the office has been raving about the awesome design and the output it generates.

I think it is well worth the price!

This is an excellent stove I have used the double barrel type for 3 years but you need to be aware of one thing. The stove door bracket (part number #6 see it on the "replacement parts" downloadable .pdf hyperlink) is made of exceptionally thin steel that will bend when you close and secure the cast iron door. Several days ago in the night the fire alarm went off. I ran downstairs in the smoke filled house to find the door had loosened and opened up was wide open and fire was coming out of the door 2' into the air. Very scary situation. Got the door wedged shut with a cement block. I removed part #6 the next morning and fabricated a new door closure part #6 made of 1/8" thick metal. It works fine now. The manufacturer's customer service did not answer my email about this dangerous situation. Stove is 5 star. Door catch part #6 is dangerous.

All in all it's a very good kit, however, the draft hole is too small. When the door is closed and the draft damper is wide open, the fire goes out due to lack of oxygen. Also line the bottom half with fire brick, if you dont the bottom will burn through!

Was looking for a way to heat a small steel building...And here it is! Assembly was easy. Legs were a little short, but I was aware of this. Just used some cinderblocks under the legs to bring it up from the floor. Brought temp of bld{20x30} up to a workable level of comfort. Beats buying a wood stove for hundreds of dollars. Parts can be swapped from one barrel to the next when barrel starts to give way from use. looks like years of use from one barrel,by use I mean 20 to 30 hours per week during winter months.

The legs were bought to mount on a Kozy World KWN191 18,000-BTU Vent-Free Natural-Gas Infrared Wall Heater. Legs are pieces of plastic much the same as the ones included with a standard box fan. Two pieces of plastic that should come included in the box by Cozy World. The cost of $18 is ridiculous for no more than what they are. The Kozy World heater is not that impressive to begin with but for the price they cost, they need to include not only these legs but the fan and any other accessories required to make them work 100%. After I purchased the legs and the fan, (which you can't buy locally at the same store ---Lowe's), with shipping cost AND the kit required to hook it up to gas, I had to shell out another $80!
