I live in Arizona and even on a hot day this AC cools off my garage. I especially like the auto/energy saver feature that turns off the Compressor and fan when the desired temp is reached. You need a sleeve to install this unit and the sleeve is made by Amana which is a little confusing.

Review of Swan SNCHW34050 Premium Hot Water Heavy Duty 3/4-Inch by 50-Feet

Swan SNCHW34050 Premium Hot Water Heavy Duty 3/4-Inch by 50-Feet Water Hose
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars

I was looking for a hose mainly to hook up to a auxiliary sump pump. I saw this on the Amazon warehouse for about $20 and figured it was a better option than the cheap 5/8 inch hose I was considering. Plus, I could use this for draining my hot water heater.

There's a couple of good features to this hose. The ends are very solid brass couplers. Well-made with zero leaks. They are hefty enough that I don't anticipate any problems with them for the life of the hose. Plus, the 3/4 inch size has a noticeably greater flow than a 5/8 inch hose (especially when using it with a pump), and it comes with a life-time warranty (according to the packaging, if it breaks you need to send back the ends and they will send you a new hose).

But the hose itself is problematic with regard to kinks. It's more manageable when used with hot water, but cold water (or any outside temperature below 80 degrees) makes it very cumbersome to wind/unwind. It kinks VERY easily and the kinks are difficult to work out. The hose came with two kinks that have set themselves permanently into the hose restricting the flow, and the outer casing at the kink points is cracked. No leaks, but just a matter of time before the cracks extend further.

Even though it was so inexpensive I returned it and replaced it with a 3/4 inch Flexogen by Gilmore (got two 25 foot hoses on the Amazon Warehouse for about the same price I paid for this -$20). As usual, Amazon was a breeze to deal with regarding the return.

I'll give it two stars due to the connections and the fact that, in specialized applications, it's workable. But unless you're willing to put up with some major drawbacks, it's not worth getting even at $20, and absolutly not worth the full price.

Also, although the product info says it will handle water up to 200 degrees, the label on the hose I received says the limit is 190 degrees.

We use these hoses daily for cleanup in a food processing facility. I've found them to be very durable. They last much longer than the standard hoses found at hardware stores.

This part is as described, and fit my old bbq regulator perfectly. However, the part I received is not the one pictured. The brass adapter is not as long as it appears, and the Acme nut is green. This does not affect the functionality so I am still giving it 5 stars. Cheap easy solution.

I bought this unit as a replacement for the nut assembly on my Mr. Heater extented hose I use for my elevated blind.. The original broke (after several years use) when I attempted to remove it during very fridged weather. This is a good replacement. The only reason I gave it a 4 star rating, rather than a five star, is the throw on the back side of the nut is shorter than shown...just a lenght of threaded pipe and no wrench lug. This was no problem, you simply use a ratchet head on the connection head lugs (inside the nut head) to tighten the unit to the regulator.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This heater is quite small compared to my other area heaters. It measures roughly 12 x 12 x 10 so it's rather tiny. That's a good thing because it gives you a lot more flexibility on where you can use or store it. Its size might make you assume that it won't put out much heat but that would be an incorrect assumption. I have two other area heaters that work really well but they are about 2 to 3 times as large as this heater. Both of my other heaters are louder than this one as well. This heater is very quiet for the most part. The only annoying part is the sudden clicking noise when the thermostat turns it on automatically. It tends to scare my dogs a little bit but other than that it's no big deal. You can choose from either the black or white finish. I have the white finish and the outside is painted metal that is strong. It reminds me of the outside of a washer or dryer. It should be very durable and last a very long time. The blade guard is designed so little kids can't get their fingers far enough inside the fan to hurt themselves. The exterior of the fan is designed not to get too hot so kids won't get burnt on it. It's a heater so it's going to get warm but not hot enough to do any real damage. It has a heavy duty power cord that is about 5 feet long. On the top of the unit there is a small LCD screen and buttons to turn it on or off, adjust the temperature or control the speed. It has high, low and fan only modes. Around the LCD screen there is chrome trim that looks nice. There are many uses for this heater. You can use it to heat one room or one level of your house. I have used it while working out in the garage and it even put out enough heat to warm my garage up very quickly. It might also be good in an office setting. In the instructions it says only to use it on the floor but I really don't see any reason why you couldn't have it on a shelf as long as it was sturdy. This fan has two different safety mechanisms built-in. First of all if a curtain, blanket or any other items where accidentally block its airflow then it will automatically shut off. If this heater were to accidentally be knocked over then this heater is supposed to shut off as well. These are important features to have if you have children or pets that might knock it over. It has a timer so you can turn it on and have it automatically shut off in 1 hour increments between 1 and 9 hours. One of the best options of this heater is the vortex technology that circulates the air / heat so much better than the average heater or fan. I really agree that this little heater can effectively heat my entire downstairs. It distributes the heat much better so it's not roasting hot by the heater and freezing in the rest of the house. I would highly recommend this heater to anyone but I will say that the price is a little on the steep side. You will however receive a 5 year warranty this a lot better than the average 1 year warranty that most products come with. There is certainly a lot of value in an extra 4 years on the warranty. You will have to decide for yourself but over I think this heater is great and a little on the pricey side but the extra warranty helps me justify the price. You may think that the warranty isn't a big deal but what if the heater decides to stop working after 18 months. I like having the peace of mind knowing it will at least last me 5 years or they will replace / repair it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have owned several models of Vornado heaters including the grey color of this model. This model is white and trimmed in chrome. It comes without a remote but the other color of this same model does come with one. I have one encounter their their customer service several years ago and it was outstandingly perfect. This heater is reasonably quiet and heats my room very evenly. As I own the other model of this heater I did find that the remote sensor is still built in this model. I am sure one can buy the remote as an accessory if one decides that it is needed. Some folks just set it and never use the remote. It is just a personal choice.

In some ways this model is a real beauty in its white and chrome trim. Highly recommended.

It is built like a premium product it is!

Honest reviews on Vornado TVH500 Whole Room Vortex Heater

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I really wanted to like this. I could really use a good heater for my house, since heating costs so much in the North. But, this was a mixed bag.

First, it does blow warm air, which is nice. But only directly in front of it. If you are off to the side outside of a 30 degree or so cone, you don't get moving air that is warm. You get moving air that is COLD. I mean, c'mon people! It's winter time! Why would I want a fan?!?

Second, the thermostat is weird. I set it for 72 and put it on high. The room temperature was 57. Within a few minutes, it told me that the room temperature was 61. I thought, "Pretty good!". Then, the air coming out got noticeably colder. Eventually, it got chilly. It would go on to become warm again, then cold again. And I was left wondering what was going on.

On the up side, it is relatively quiet. That said, I'd prefer a heater with a very quiet fan that blows less air, and that doesn't make me cold if I am not the lucky person who won the coin flip and got to sit directly in front of it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Personally I have very large vaulted ceilings, so using space heaters saves lots of money. Instead of trying to heat the whole house, I mostly just place the heater in the rooms I frequent the most shutting off spare bedrooms, etc. In the living room with the highest ceiling, I was hoping to use this as a new heater. When I got home the house was very cold 65 degrees. I plugged this heater in & put on the side of the room blowing toward the center. Surprisingly about 10 minutes later I realized the heater had turned itself off. The thermostat on the heater was reading 75 for heat & room 75... which is was far from. I checked the thermostat in the hall, it said house was 67 (merely on the other end of the same room). I unplugged the heater & plugged it back in, now the thermostat said the house was only 70 and the heater started up again. After another 15 minutes, off again. This was starting to get annoying. I tried extending the heater as far away from the wall as possible, the length of the extension chord (4 foot), hoping that would keep it from recirculated its own heat (me thinking that was the reason the thermostat was being tricked into reading a higher temp). Still after about 15 minutes, it was off once more showing 75 while standing less than 10 foot from the heater & feeling cold. Finally today it was running good & stayed on all morning, but not sure if the problem is fixed or just on hiatus. Either way, for this money I'd expect more. Sure it's quiet & the heat coming out is warm for such a small heater, but I want more than that for this kind of money.

Love this unit! Our place is about 800sq-ft, put it in the living room and it cools it and the adjacent kitchen. For our our bed room we simply roll the thing in there, being smaller will cool down much quicker of course. Haven't tried the heater yet but the fan mode alone blows nice and cool. Quiter than expected, and vented properly no condesation build up. If not vented (when brought in bedroom) the holding tank holds a liter and a 1/2 and can be drained in the morning. Love it! Remote such a plus.

I recently purchased this unit because my bedroom is fairly big and I seen 14,000 BTU. Don't even think of getting one, as my fan cools the room better. I had a 8000 btu window unit and it blew this 14k btu unit away.The unit blows fairly cool air but not enough to do the job in any room not even a doghouse. It's also very loud so don't try watching TV

This is my fourth portable AC. I have a boat that I frequently sleep on therefore, I pull my ACs out when leaving for an overnight visit. (Decided to do this after I had $10,000 of varies items stolen from my house.) I had intended to buy a Royal Sovereign Portable Ac which is the best of the three that I have but they no longer make my unit and I was not impressed with newer models are prices. I'm glad I got this instead. It works great in a large room. I also wanted one that was black/silver but this is a very nice looking model (better than the picture shows). It takes up a little bit more room than my other units but it is worth the use of space considering how good it works. It was easy to put together and the hoses that go through the window have a slick design better than the rounded models. I wasn't sure if I needed a two hose or if one would do as my other units are two but after reading up on it, I decided to go again with the two hoses. I haven't tried the heat yet but had the AC for two months use it almost daily and it works great. Did the job during a heat wave that was in the 90s with "feels like temps over a 100". It is a little loud but not as bad as my other units. Good price also as I spent several hours shopping for this product.

I bought this model heater from Sam's club, for the same price as Amazon. It has easy to use thermostat and fan controls, puts out plenty enough heat for most small bedrooms, and has a great fan output while remaining very quiet by using a blower instead of regular fan blades. I aimed it blowing under my bed and it keeps the mattress warm as with the room. Definitely the best heater for the price range I've ever found.

Honest reviews on Lasko 5900 Pivoting Ceramic Utility Heater

I originally purchased this heater to use in the garage when I work on my cars during cold weather. For kicks, since my master bedroom tends to get colder than other rooms during the winter, I tried it in there and it works great. It's reasonably quiet, much more so than a few other space heaters I've tried that were advertised as "quiet". The two knobs are simple to use. With the heat knob at about 40% of full setting and the fan knob at the second lowest setting, it does a great job of keeping a large bedroom, a large bathroom, and a large closet nice and toasty all night. This heater blows a ton of hot air at full setting, much more than is need in most rooms. At 40-50% setting, it blows warm, comfortable air, does *not* get hot enough to burn, and I can comfortably rest my hand over the front grill. It is child and pet friendly. The unit is well put together and sturdy. It's virtually impossible to tip it over. It pivots to adjust the airflow angle. This is one of the better purchases I have made in a long time. I would buy it again without hesitation. I rate it four stars simply because it's not silent.

This heater is an excellent buy. There is really only two heat output settings. The "third" setting is the "econo" setting and really uses the two different heat settings based on temperature difference between the setting and the room. The fan is not to loud and not too quiet. It is perfect for background noise for sleeping. The safety cutoff switch when the unit tips over works just as described when I tested it. The displayed temperatue setting and other lights are fairly bright and bothered my wife when while we slept. I put a couple of layers of translucent tape over it and it took care of that problem. The stand does not have adjustable height. Ceramic heaters are also safer because their elements do not get glowing hot like most heating elements. When this is combined with the safety cutout, it is much safer than the older style units.

I purchased two of these units. One for a home office that is approximately 10 x 12 with 9 foot ceiling and the other one to be used in various other rooms of the house as needed. For the unit in the office, it is the perfect size and does a great job of keeping the room warm. I like the fact that the unit does not get hot to the touch if accidentally touched and that is is fairly quiet. It does have an "Econ" button on it which changes the fan speed from low to high as needed, a nice touch. It has a big bright display that is easy to read from anywhere in the room. Also comes with a handy remote control, not necessary, but a nice to have.

I did try the other unit in our family room which is a large 15 x 17 with 15 foot ceiling and the unit really did not warm the room at all, which I didn't expect it would. So know the limitations of the unit. Even still, in the big room the heater did take a slight chill out of the room, but not enough to justify it running non-stop for several hours.

The unit has a sleek modern design and does not take up much space. I'm really happy with the units.

NEW FOUR STAR REVIEW (OLD 2 STAR REVIEW IS SHOWN BELOW):

I upgraded this product from 2 stars to 4 stars. I now like this product. I moved the location of this product away from the house heating vent (my husband had placed it in the corner near the house heater vent). Customer service also recommended that I unplug the unit to 'reset' it so now I turn it off and unplug it after each use. I have also had great temperature success using the ECO mode instead of the Level 1 mode. I set the device to 67 degrees, ECO mode, and oscillate and it keeps the room in a range between 65F-70F (when set at 67F). This range is acceptable to me. The oscillate mode still makes a slight clicking, but seems to smooth out after it has been in use for awhile. In any case, it does not seem to bother my daughter. Now I'm sleeping much better.

OLD TWO STAR REVIEW:

The first week, this product seemed to work nicely. I had it set to 68F and it seemed to come on and shut off with a +/3 degrees max difference from the setting (I have my own thermostat in the room). This week (week #2), I woke up at 4am and noticed that the temperature in my daughters room was 72 and the heater was still going (I had it set at 67F that night). Last night I was awake almost all night monitoring the temperature. I do not have confidence in the thermostat setting on the heater because it seems to not shut off even after the room is over 3 degrees from the setting (or even +5 degrees as I found out when it was set at 67F and the room was already at a hot 72F and the heater was still going). My daughters room isn't that big and I have a thermometer set on the opposite end of her room. Also, when the heater is on oscillate, it makes a slight clicking sound. The heater fan by itself is quiet. Another minus is that there is no confirmation light to show you if you've got the heater in oscillate mode. Sometimes I think I've got it on oscillate (by pressing the button), but when I check later, the heater is on without oscillating. There is no way to know if you've pressed the oscillate mode On or Off (no light for that). I would like to return this unit.

Michigan: We have an 1800sq ft house with a very open floor plan with central heat that works great except for our closed-off master bed/bath/closet that occupies about 400sq ft and there is a 10 degree difference in there on cold days. We insulated the attic to R60 and had foam injected into the walls, but it actually made my bedroom colder since the heat isn't running constantly now that we have proper insulation. The HVAC guy wanted to sell me on zoning, which is very expensive. So I bought this little heater to see if maybe that would work. It does, and it works great! I have it set up on our dresser, and I just set it to "ECO" mode at 70 degrees. It kicks on only when it needs to, and oscillates warm air around the room. It is very quiet and makes less noise than my tower fan does on low. I'm not sure how it would do if you were heating a room with no supplemental heat, but it works great for making up the difference to get my bedroom on par with the rest of the house. No more cold noses and cold feet at night! It doesn't take up a lot of room and it looks quite attractive. I am quite happy with this solution.

On taking a closer look at my second unit after it died, it look as if it was wired for a 240/120 volt circuit and not a 12/24 volt circuit (internal wiring too thin). For the price and the fact it is CE certified I'm not impressed. I expected a better product with CE certification.

I got one of these for my outdoor patio overhead fans/lights. The timer is good but I have used these and other wall based spring wound timer switches from Intermatic and they don't last more than 3-5 years. The timers quit. Still can be used manually but that's not what I am buying this product for. In that time, you make your money back from the savings without a doubt but be prepared to buy a new one as they will not last. I love the product, hate to be so honest about the lack of useful life but I think Intermatic knows as I've had over 12 of these (many with different timer settings) at my properties and only a few lasted over 5 years. Easy as a light switch to install. Several years of saving on wasted electricity makes this a good deal. I've tried other brands and they fail even sooner.

This short life is not representative of all Intermatic timers. The ones that are encased in a metal enclosure with a 24 hour timer and trippers that you can change have been in pools and electric water heaters for 20+ years without a problem except resetting the timers when there has been a power outage. They are great!

Update: One year later...still going strong!

Have a very nice active fireplace with the bush of a button on a remote controller! Very realistic flames and glowing, burning logs. The heat given off completes the effect.

The raised log basket looks good even when the "fire" is turned off. Because real burning logs in a fireplace are not in front of a vertical wall, the black rear panel was a concern. However, in the fireplace it blends with the blackened fire bricks and is not a distraction. Some brands have "mirrored" panels which are more noticable. Reviews of other manufacturers inserts complained about heater fan noise. The hum of the ClassicFlame fan is not noticable, it is almost like the sound of a real fire.

A very satisfactory electric fireplace insert. It is ready to plug in and enjoy right out of the box.

Bought this ac unit for cooling an 800 square foot apartment. It did it, though not how you'd expect. The office it was placed in was very cool and crisp on all but the hottest of days. The unit does struggle above 90 degrees fahrenheit, but below that it is sufficient.

Kept the whole apartment a good 10-20 degrees cooler than outside, which considering it's meant for one room, is not bad.

I put this air cond in a room that was too big (15x15) I've had it for a month and a half and its doing the job very well. it only takes 15min to cool off the room and it runs 24/7 and it not that loud. I'm going to buy another one for the bedroom.

If you close the room, it will cool it down in 20 minutes on maximum cool settings. Fans could be better though.

Cheap DeLonghi HS15F Safe Heat Convection Heater

Customer Ratings: 3 stars

I bought this heater over 2 years ago, have used it on a regular basis since day one, and it's still going strong. My apartment is pretty cold and the only other heat source I have is electric baseboard, which is WAY too expensive to use, so this little heater is my main source of warmth. I love it and would recommend it to anyone!

I was disappointed with the quality of this heater, it produced very little forced air and did not heat the room that way I hoped. Not usually typical with Delonghi products to not be efficient.

Save your money... this heater is NOT safe at all. It actually gets very hot to the touch, emits some type of chemical smell when first used, and did not warm my living room at all. To top it all, the quality of this heater is very poor. I returned it and bought a Vornado whole-room vortex heater-which stays cool AND heats the entire living room perfectly (for the same price).

Honest reviews on DeLonghi HS15F Safe Heat Convection Heater

Have this unit for past 2 yrs and it works perfectly. I heats up my bedroom which is approx 350sqft in about 30 mins. If I have the dual heat setting, the room gets heated up within an hour.

If you are looking for perfect heater for a bedroom or any other room then this unit will be sufficient. I also save on electric bills as I do not run the central air when I am using this.

Unit arrived couple of days ago and the box was taped around the seams, which wasn't a concern but opening today the unit was used. The plastic bag containing leg stand and screws was already torn open and had masking tape to keep closed. Screws were missing and looking at the unit very apparent it was used!! I've purchased many, many items from Amazon and can't believe they would sell a USED item as brand new!! What a shame or should I call them a sham!

Best Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater Deals

Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars

I wanted a quiet heater to use in my den in the evening. I watch TV in this room and didn't want a noisy heater that competed with it, forcing me to raise and lower the volume to adjust for a noisy heater fan. This heater is the quietest fan-forced unit I've tried, and I've tried quite a few. The only heaters quieter than this one would be the micathermic or oil-filled models. The micathermic ones only heat up the area directly in front of the panel and not the whole room, and the oil filled heaters take way too long to heat up.

Now for the bad news......the digital thermostat. First off, the settings are in five degree increments, rather than one degree. If I set it for 65 the heater brings the room up to about 68 then shuts off. That's fine, but then the room will drop to 63 or 64 and the heater doesn't come back on. I'm either going to be hot or cold. If I set the unit to 70, after reaching 75 degrees it still runs----totally unacceptable. If Holmes improves the thermostat they would have a decent little heater here. Oh, one other thing. There are two output settings, low and high. They only control fan speed. The heater uses 1500 watts at both settings, unlike most other models.

The heater portion of this unit performs admirably: fast heat generation, quiet fan good for warming small to medium-sized rooms in a short amount of time. The heater does eat a fair amount of current the manual rates it at around 13 to 14 amps, which may be a big deal if you're on a circuit with only a 15 amp breaker. It's also light and compact, so it's easy to carry from one room to another, and doesn't take up much space.

The downside is that some of the fancier features of this unit are unreliable the oscillating base tends to bind and gnash gears, making a loud cracking sound. It also seeps oil from the base. Also, the digital thermostat is inaccurate, and has a tendency to lose calibration over several hours. I've purchased two of these heaters, and I've noticed all three problems with both.

As a space heater, it fits the bill well. But be advised that you may not get full use of the other features that you are paying for.

I want to like this heater, it is so quiet. But, in thermostat mode on low heat, the unit shuts itself off and goes into reset mode, thinking it is overheating. What a shame, all 3 units failed miserably. Thermostat mode works fine on high heat, but I need low heat for a smaller space.

Honest reviews on Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater

I get headaches from gas-powered wall heaters you usually see in older apartment units. I thought this might be a good deal for my bedroom. While it does the job, my electric bill TRIPLED in a month. This would be better for sparing use at your office or something. Look for a heater that is a little more energy efficient if electricity costs are important to you.

I got this little heater for my desk because I work on the cold side of the building. A couple of other coworkers had this model and were very happy with it, so I decided to try it too.

One deciding factor is that this unit looks good. There are cheaper heaters out there, but they all look like cheesy plastic. Being in a somewhat public area (I don't have my own office) the heater needed to look nice, and this one definitely fits the bill.

More importantly this heater works very well. As soon as you turn it on, you can feel the heat pouring out of it, with no hesitation. My toes are soon toasty and my fingers no longer frozen. Equally important is how quiet it is. On low setting I can't hear it at all, even when it was sitting right next to me! On high setting the fan is audible, but not distractingly so.

An interesting feature is what Holmes calls "Viziheat". Since there are no glowing coils inside this unit, it might be hard to tell if the grill might be hot. When you turn on this heater, the orange stripes appear on the grill as it heats up. You can see these in the product photo here. When the grill has cooled off it fades back to black. The grill seems to be the only thing that gets hot. When the unit is pumping out heat, you can burn yourself on the grill, but the surrounding plastic housing is surprisingly cool to the touch, which makes it easy to adjust its position safely.

My only complaint about this heater is how poorly the enclosed instructions explain how the thermostat works. This unit has what they call "1-touch" for heat settings. There's only one button on this thing and you press to turn it on, and repeatedly to achieve what temperature you want. Sounds easy, right? What's confusing, and what the instructions don't bother to mention, is what it means when the temperatures are lit up in red or green, sometimes both! It has multiple pages of warnings and safety instructions, but not a single word on why I feel no heat at all when a number is lit up in green by itself. I eventually figured it out, but still, a little less "don't touch the grill when it's hot" and more useful information please! It's sad how most companies are so paranoid about getting sued because a few lawsuit-happy idiots were dumb enough to hurt themselves. But anyway, if you're good at figuring out puzzles, you should have no problems deciphering how the heat settings work on this thing. Overall I'm happy with this heater.
