My first waterbed heater lasted nearly twenty years. When it died, I grabbed the first heater I could find and it was small and chintzy, the thermostat lasted barely a year. To replace it, I shopped more carefully this time and found this one. This waterbed heater is big and beefy, like the first one. It heats the bed quickly and efficiently. I did have to get past the safety warnings which were rather scary, but really just said to use it only on a big sack of water type bed only and keep it off the seams in the supporting wood. Though I have only had this a couple of months now, I expect to get many years of service from it.

It was easy to install and works great. You can't beat the price for the quality of waterbed heater. I would recommend this product.

This heater lasted 3 1/2 months...tried to return and wasn't able to because the window already expired. Waste of money.

The full watt heater maintains the temperature accurately. This is our second InnoMax Thermal Guardian Quantum, the last one worked well for over 5 years. Will buy again if I live that long.

Product does what it's supposed to do. I can't rate it higher because I don't know how long it will last.

Homebasix LH890S 750/1500-Watt Vertical Quartz Heater Reviews

Customer Ratings:

This product turned out to work perfectly. It arrived on time and it works as it should. A quartz heater is the only solution for a loft where you need to heat the room rather than all the heat going upstairs!

However, this particular quartz heater (unlike the ones I've had before) is fan-forced, which in my opinion is not as desirable because of the noise issue. It is not noisy as some fan heaters, but I would have preferred the quiet kind, they works just as well. Maybe in my enthusiasm, I didn't check that very carefully...I don't remember seeing 'fan-forced' in the description but I could be wrong.....anyway, that's why I am changing my rating to 4.

This unit does a great job heating my workshop. The bracket allows me to mount it to my ceiling so it doesn't take up any additional space. It is much quieter than the last heater I had. It's alot of power for the price. I would recommend it.

I bought this to heat a mostly insulated 3-car garage workshop. This unit would struggle to heat this much space in a severe climate but our winters here in the Pacific Northwest are fairly mild. My garage is quite comfortable to work in after an hour or so when outside temperatures are in the 35 to 40 degree range. The unit is thermostatically controlled so you just need to let the space get to the temperature you want and turn the dial on the back down until the heater turns off. From there it will turn itself on and off as needed. It is a bit on the loud side, but isn't nearly so loud as the power tools I'm using. I suspect this would be quite expensive to run if you used it to heat a garage all winter, but it's fine if all you want to do is heat it a day or two a week. The upside is that this has made my garage workshop useable year round and I don't have to wait until spring to begin work on projects.

We used this item in our Kidding barn for our goats....it needs to be 45-50 degrees in the barn when the kids are born and the heater kept the 18 X 40 ft barn toasty during February in South Dakota.

Honest reviews on Dimplex CUH05B31T 3750/5000-Watt Compact Industrial Unit Heater

Found this unit to be convenient and efficient for heating my garage and basement. I purchased two of these and wired them up with a plug so that they are not permanently installed. In this way they are portable. They are capable of bringing the temperature in my garage from freezing to a comfortable 60 degrees. Depending on how cold my garage is, I do believe that the units are sufficient for most cold days. Unfortunately, my garage is not insulated, including my door which is aluminum. In that case, if the temperature drops into the low twenties or below, I think this unit would have a hard time coping with raising the temperature to a comfortable level to use tools. But, for most applications, this unit works well enough. I did have one problem with one of the units. The temperature switch was defective and because it was out of warranty, I literally had to take the switch apart to fix the unit. You should also be aware that if you turn off the unit while it is in its heating, the fan will continue to run in order to cool down the coil sufficiently before it will shut off.

Heater was installed using 208V about 4 weeks ago in a large electrical room. I have the built in thermostat set to 4 and the Dimplex heater keeps the upper part of the 14' high cielings very warm, the lowerpart of the room is cool but comfortable. I might install a cieling fan to push the warm air down.

I use this heater to heat my workshop. My work shop is a 20x26 space. I insulated the ceiling and made sure to weather seal all the doors. I use a 170k BTU heater kero heater to bring the shop up to temp and then let this guy take over to keep it warm. No smell fumes and it fuel efficient. I run it off 30 lb tanks and so far I have over 30 hours on one take. I run it mostly on the low setting. Its easy to setup and use.

Optimus H-3013 Portable Utility Heater with Thermostat Review

Customer Ratings:

I have purchased two of these heaters and encountered the same problem with both of them.

Granted, they are a low priced heater. I paid $19.95 (on sale) for each of mine.

Both functioned for a few months, being used only occasionally for limited amounts of time to heat my basement workshop.

The amount of heat produced; even at the maximum setting was very disappointing; for both units.

Worse yet; both unit developed the same problem.

They would temporarily shut down and then resume operating a few minutes later. Both the fan and heating unit would shut off, and then resume operating temporarily.

It was like a thermal overload was producing a temporary shutdown.

the end result was that very little "heat" was produced.

The old adage about "getting what you paid for" certainly applies to this heater!

Politely stated; it is a piece of junk!

very disappointed, expected more based on what looked like heavy duty construction. Stopped working shortly after purchase. returned for credit

Honest reviews on Optimus H-3013 Portable Utility Heater with Thermostat

Dont buy this as a heater. Maybe buy this as a fan.

This unit has a few settings: Fan, 500w, 1000w, 1500w.

You have to set it to 1500w to get any sort of heat, and that is just too high of a power draw for too little heat. And the thing sounds like a lawnmowers. The fan is hardly balanced.

Only buy this heater for its cold-war era nostalgia. For heat, you're better off with a tiny ceramic heater box.

This is a great unit and just like it states it is wisper quiet. Easy to read digital temp. Took about 5 min to warm a 63 degree room to 72! Takes up little space, I put mine in the corner and you don't even know its there. It is also an attractive unit that I don't mind having in any room of the house. The remote controol is a plus also. I Did not think I needed it, but now that I have it, I love that feature also. There is an easy to use timer on the unit also. That is a nice feature so you don't forget to turn it off when you go to work etc. I am thinking about ordering another one as this is such a handy unit. With heating costs this winter it is a money saver to use this electric unit to supplement your heat.

I bought this heater for my living room. I have central heat and air, but this helps me save money on my heating bill. It's slightly more expensive than other ceramic heaters, but it has an air purifier and a remote control. None of the cheaper ceramic heaters have those features. You don't realize how handy the remote control is unless you have owned an electric heater without one. You can make minor adjustments to its thermostat with the remote control. You can adjust the thermostat from 64 to 90 degrees. It has a big, bright LCD display on the front that shows the temperature and other information. Many people seem to prefer those electric oil-filled heaters, but some of them can take forever to heat up a room. This heater produces a lot of heat quickly. It's rated at 5,200 BTUs. A small air conditioner has a rating of about 10,000 BTUs. It also has the ability to automatically alternate between high and low power when it's in AUTO mode. It doesn't always use 1500 watts of electricity because of that. Sometimes it will only use 950 watts if a room is already warm. The Sunpentown SH-1508 is the best electric heater I have ever owned.

SPT SH-1508 Tower Ceramic Heater with Ionizer

I would have to give this rating a one star unfortunately. THe heater while in itself is a great cost you must be warned of the manufacturing of the product itself. I have two of these heaters purchased within a few weeks of each other. One worked well, we were so pleased that we ordered another (my roomies and myself) unfortunately the first one came broken, making a horrible clicking sound and the company (SPT)has refused to help. Amazon did send a replacement for the first and then the second one arrived making an horrible buzzing noise. Amazon was not willing to replace this one. Today is the 8th week of owning both the heaters. THe first one's face plate caught fire today because of poor wiring used in the assembly of the heater, and the second one I am afraid will do the same. This product almost set fire to my house and everything that we own.

I cannot reccomend this product to anyone. Although the price is fine (money wise) is it really worth risking far much more than sixty something dollars if it costs you your life? I do not think so. I am so upset by this that I will write to amazon.com today strongly recommending that this product be removed from their site. Because if three products have thus far been malfunctioning who knows how many more of these are out there will similar situations. So far I have found over 200 similar stories about this product. Thank you for your time and I wish you the best of luck in finding whateever it may be that you are looking for.

Happy Holidays everyone.

Honest reviews on Sunpentown SH-1508 Tower Ceramic Heater with Ionizer

This machine is larger than many ceramic models but nice looking and heats very well. The fan is very quiet. I like that you can use it as a fan without heat as well. My only complaint is that the blue LCD that tells the temperature does not dim or shut off and is VERY bright. Too bright for a bedroom. Really lights it up. I'll be looking for some way of safely masking it. Otherwise very nice but hope it lasts.

OCTOBER 08' UPDATE:

2 California coastal winters (mild and short) and it's dead. Well not dead, but working erratically (noisy, not shutting off when the room reaches the Auto shut off temp, ...) No longer safe or usable.

For the bright light, I masked it with electrical tape. Safe and effective.

After reading dozens of reviews on dozens of heaters, I gave up and ordered what looked good. So far, I very happy with this one. Although assembly was indicated, it came fully assembled. It heats my son's bedroom (10 x 12) in very short order and it takes the chill off my living room (16 x 22). I switched to a pellet heater as my primary fuel and there are some areas of my home that just stay cool. I'm confident this will do the job on all but the coldest of days (Mid-Michigan). The directions are easy to understand and the remote is simple to use. The only drawback is the LED panel is super bright for my sleeping preference (great nightlight for a kid) and when the timer (max 7.5 hour) shuts the unit off, it seems to erase the preset room temp. It then defaults back to 75 degrees. Could be I haven't figured it out yet but either way, that's a minor thing to me. Overall, I think I got a good deal on a good heater.

In the digital age, we forget mechanical things do make noises. If you plan on installing this switch any where near bedrooms, you may hear the timer ticking down. It reminds me of an old school alarm clock. Anyway, this switch was easy to install and works great for the whole house fan. However, it's on the wall of the master bedroom and it is annoying trying to sleep. If you plan to use this away from sleeping areas, it's a fine count down timer switch.

The switch mechanism is large and would not fit in a 2 1/4 inch deep box with a wire connector on the side. Plan ahead.

(Sorry, it's now installed and it's too late for me to measure it. Why does Amazon not give accurate measurements? When they give measurements, it's often the size of the packaging.)

The mini switch plate works with a regular switch plate (standard or "rocker" type) which is not included.

Made in Tunisia!

The unit does not include a cover plate. I went to the local big box store, purchased one and then decided to use the original plate.

Other than that, it works as expected. As I recall......... the item description indicated...... no cover plate included. Don't be surprised, when it arrives without one.

When you turn it counterclockwise it turns on as advertised. But, when you return it to off, it stays off for a while, and then some time later, it turns back on. What a surprise. I've learned to live with it. Just have to turn it a little counter clockwise to stop it.

It works, for now... its not any louder than normal mechanical timers, i do notice it at night but im ok with a little noise to go to sleep to. Also this doesn't have a ground terminal, which i thought was interesting. I guess they figure you wont need one? Either way it works without, i'm just wondering if i'll ever get a shock out of this thing

Ok, where do I start? First this thing requires a 30 amp circuit. For you who don't know 30 amps is what a clothes dryer or a welder uses. High voltage! Which is fine but I doesn't put out that much heat! It heats a 2 foot x 2 foot area to about 80 degrees. So if it is right between your legs it works great. I had high hopes for this heater, especially because its made in America, but it was a big disappointment. I am trying to return it now. Hopefully all goes well there.
