This is a great heater, for a small area. On the lower setting, it makes no noise at all. I use this for heating a studio apartment and it works well.

Purchased to maintain garage above freezing. This heater has kept my garage (400sf) and everything in it from freezing. Today it is -2 degrees. It's working great. Well worth the money.

For some reason I thought this heater was going to be larger than it is. It's a good thing I found a great price on it because had I spent North of $100 for it I would've been very disappointed. The build quality is average and it heats ok. Just don't expect it to do much out in a garage. It's better suited to a basement workshop or similar.

Honest reviews on Dayton 3VU31 Heater, Space, 120v

Bought this item base on other positive reviews. I thought I would be getting a heavy duty industrial strength heater, to help warm our basement.

This thing is flimsy, light weight and rattles like crazy when it runs. I can get more heat out of my hair drier. I glows very bright but the fan hardly moves the heat.

Does anyone make a decent heater?

These tools are very attractive and well made. The base is very stable and won't tip over easily. They have the rustic look I wanted. My only complaint is that the measurements given are for the stand the tools attach to and not the tools themselves. The product info. should indicate the tool lengths separately at 19 inches rather than the 22 inches listed as the product length.

This is a quality, well-made set. All pieces are welded; no nuts and bolts. Although smaller than average (which I knew when I purchased) it is the perfect size for my fireplace. It adds character to my fireplace without becoming the focal point. I am very pleased!

I had read several reviews. Some said it was noisy and some said it quieted down after a while. The noise level is to high for me. It heats up what I want, but I would not buy another one because of the fan noise;

Review of LifeTime Ceramic Disk Furnace with Thermostat Control

LifeTime Ceramic Disk Furnace with Thermostat Control and Oscillating Base Electric Heater by Pelonis/Del-rain
Customer Ratings: 5 stars
Buy Now
I love the look of this heater, you'd never know it was one, it looks like a high-tech retro computer speaker, so cool. The oscillation is smooth and quiet. It hasn't been terribly cold yet (45-50 degrees or so), I'm using it to heat a den, about 20'x20", and it heats the entire room (lots of windows and floor to ceiling sliding glass doors), on the low setting (750 watts), with the thermostat set to about 50%. The thermostat is a dial with plenty of gradationsI want to say it goes to 11 (some of you will get that joke, it actually goes to 9). Seriously, you'll experiment to determine the setting that suits you, but the thermostat is plenty sensitive and works perfectly. I tried it with the unit set to high (1500 watts) and it was too warm in a matter of minutes, heats the room fast.

The owner's manual and description are wrongsay that the thermostat maintains the temperature without the unit cycling on and off, untrue. When it reaches the desired temperature, it shuts off (including oscillation), turns on again when the temperature dips (actually preferable for saving energy). There's one small amber LED, just bright enough to let you know it's on but doesn't light up the room or interfere with sleep.

I formerly had an old oil-filled radiator type electric heater that finally bit the dust, this is the replacement. With that heater in mind, I was looking for one that could be run without the fan. For some reason I had a mind-block on this issue, thought when it was advertised that the heating element and fan were separate that it meant the heat could be run without having the fan on (I mention this if any of you have the same misconception). That's not the caseyou can run the fan by itself with no heat, but you can't run the heater without the fan. The fan is not quiet, but not terribly loud either, has a white noise type neutral sound I don't mind, sleep-wise, but it's loud enough that when it comes on you need to increase the volume on the TV a notch or two. What you'll need to consider is if you're bothered, sleep-wise, by a fan turning on and off, which is does according to the thermostat setting. I've gotten used to it, doesn't bother me.

The metal grille covering the disc on the front gets very hot, but the top stays cool, I have birds that land on it. The heater would not be suitable within reach of small children, I'm not sure about dogs or cats, probably not if they're heat-seeking &/or not too bright.

I bought this because the research literature touted ceramic disc heaters as the most economical and energy efficient to operate, one estimate was 3-5 cents per day. This is my main concern, I'll update this review when I get a full month's electric bill. If my bill is low I'll be VERY happy with this little dynamo.

***I also bought the non-oscillating version with four small discs, I'll be evaluating it too. Both heaters are economically priced, solid, and compact. The 4-disc model doesn't have a low setting, operates at 1500 watts. By the way, these disc heaters are sold under the names Pelonis, Del-Rain, and Lifetime, they're all made by the same company and look to be identical (but with considerable variation in price).

The shovel is smaller than pictured and it does not go together the way they show. However, I really brought this for the brush which was well worth the price. I can sweep hot coals back into the fireplace and it does not melt. The hanging hook is really great as well. Get if you need a brush but not if you want a combo set.

The short handles are convenient for cleaning up when you're sitting by the hearth, and the hooks are handy. These were a great deal at $15, and they look OK and seem sturdy enough. But the workmanship is not great: many of the cuts, rivets, welds, etc. are rough or crooked.

So much better than the average fireplace tools with their long unweildy handles! This is perfect for shoveling out the ashes.

doesn't site nicely like in picture, top brush just kind of lays to the side of the first hook like they aren't really meant to go together.

MY HOUSE IS less than 2000 sq ft. 4 yrs ago my central A/C WENT OUT 3 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. So could not afford to buy new one at 5 grand, thought I'd be smart & install window units & close of rooms not in use. Last summer lived in one room, still having electric bill in the hundreds, I said to myself can't do this another yr. WELL this unit has changed & saved my life, who would have thought 1.5 ton unit would cool my whole house down so much! It was painless install too, the hardest part to INSTALL IS ELECTRIC had to run 230/240 over put in A/C fuse box close to the outside unit,then uncoiling the copper tubing one small one larger, is the most difficult thing, as it is aways the opposite(to uncoil) of what one wants to do as far as uncoiling the copper tubing, so pay attention to that otherwise its all very easy!

HOW DOES IT WORK? Its AWESOME, can cool my whole house down. ( I collect the water to water my orchids) Get 5-7 gallons a day of fresh water, that really blows me away. My electric bill has gone down alot, last month paid $120. where as last yr it was $300 for 1 room. Another great feature on the unit is the little air deflector, it moves up & down causing the breeze to change helping to disperse the coolness, this unit is so nice I had to have an AIR CONDITIONER party for it, everyone was amazed. My friends are jealous & one was angry that I did not tell him sooner, hell I didn't know 'she' (call everything good a 'she')was going to be so great, its my second love especially after working outside in the heat all day & come home to a dry cool house, wow! For under a grand after spend a small fortune on window units, this unit is very inexpensive, I say its the best deal in here! Don't hesitate just buy it you will be amazed like I was. You do need a vacuum dryer to help suck the lines dry, otherwise you don't need an installer. You can get most airconditioner guys to do this for $50 to 100 bucks well worth it, your unit will last longer & run great.

It's 105 out now just got this unit installed before the heat wave hit in my one room apartment. HVAC guy took about 6 hrs to install and it works great. Cost me a total of $1,500 compared to a quote of $4,000 from the local H/C Shop. It is a little more than "whisper quiet" but who cares I am very happy. Will report back on energy usage.

The AC Unit did not work initially after installation. The HVAC contractor who installed the unit for me had to work on the unit several times over a two week period to find out what the problem was. Once he determned what was wrong with the unit the fix was easy. The unit now runs but does not seem to pull all the mooister out of the room as other units do.

Alhough the price was good on this AC unit, if I can't find someone to get it working right then the savings were not worth the problems.

Honest reviews on Pioneer Ductless Mini Split Air Conditioner, Heat Pump, 18000 BTU

The unit works very well. The only negative thing I can see is more information on details and diagrams for installation would be helpful, especially on the wiring diagram. Also, needed is information on where to go if questions or maintenance issues come up.

It cools wonderfully and is quiet enough; however, from time to time water pours out into my floor. HVAC installer say it is faulty construction of the unit and is refusing to accept customer service recommendation to check if the drain hose slants downward. Still wondering is the unit or the installer?

I love this candle warmer. It's very cute, warms candles well, and is exactly as pictured. It also puts out just enough light that I like to leave it on in the living room at night for those middle of the night bathroom trips. I have only found two small issues. One, having it fairly close to our front door, I am always having to fish moths out of the melted wax. Secondly, I did have a little trouble finding the right sized candle for it. Seemed everything I had around the house was either way too small, or just shy of fitting. That being said, I did find a good jarred candle at my local Wally World that worked perfectly. Obviously, most candles don't tell you their dimensions, but I always carry my handy-dandy lil pocket tape measure. FYI: 5"tall x 3 1/2"diameter this size fits perfectly snug in the lantern!! I do LOVE the lantern though, and plan on getting another.

I already had purchased one of these warmers in a store and everyone who visits wants one. It makes my whole condo smell wonderful and I don't have to worry about the candle catching fire with the light. Now I am ordering Christmas gifts for friends and family.....love it!

This is a wonderful product, when you turn it on the candle instantly starts to warm and scent the entire room, then your entire home. You only need one and your home will be scented with your favorite candle scent. Enjoy :)

My mother in law had one of these and I had to have one! First it came packaged really well! You can use any candles but I prefer Yankee and it really does put out the wonderful smell of a candle without burning it. I would absolutely buy another one of these!

I love these! They are so pretty and provide great ambient lighting more than just burning the candle would provide. It's just a lovely, aromatic, lamp. I love the aroma that wafts through the room, it smells much cleaner and better than when I burn the same candles. Obviously, it is obviously safer and I notice that the black smoke residue from previous candle burnings is now gone, which I love, and the candles stay full and don't burn down to nothing now, which makes me wonder how much of that waxy residue we have been breathing in all this time. I read that the scent leaches out immediately but I have some favorite candles I always buy and they seem to be infused all the way through and have not had this problem. I occasionally add a few drops of essential oils in to boost the scent so if you find that your candles lose their scent quickly this is a good option to help prolong them.

I will be getting more of these (have four for myself) for Christmas gifts this year, especially for my mother-in-law who is elderly and a forgotten burning candle could be a problem.
