i use this at work for myself and a few friends. We make two pots a day and the coffee maker has worked perfectly for a few months now. Its pretty quiet, but the coffee tends to be very hot! the longer it sits in the coffee maker the hotter it gets. Overall, i'm very happy with it.

I've had this coffee maker for almost a year now and I have no problems with it. I have the black one (white and silver are available) and the plastic water indicator does get stained by the coffee but cleans off easily. The inside metal plate should also be kept clean daily, simple wipe down helps both metal warming features stay clean. There is one important item to mention during cleaning, to avoid drips you should open the trigger & let warm water run through it, where the coffee drips or you will end up with leaks when the cup is pulled away because the trigger will stick (from old coffee). Finally, I use the programming feature dailyand I find it is easy to program in different times (if needed) and it has a good indicator letting you know it is already set. It's not meant to be a professional coffee maker as far as flavor, so if you know you will get good average coffee and if that fits your needs, you should also be satisfied with this maker.

Best Deals for Hamilton Beach 12-Cup BrewStation

We received the Hamilton Beach BrewStation 12 Cup Coffeemaker as a gift from my sister-in-law. She loved hers and had used it for a few months so she bought one for us. Shortly after buying this for us, her coffeemaker started leaking. She thought it was just worn out from the six months of use and purchased a different type to replace hers.

We used our BrewStation for the first time yesterday. The night before, I set it up and programmed it to make coffee at 5:00 AM perfect, we could get up and have coffee already made. It worked great. A minor problem is that I enjoy coffee throughout the morning and the coffeemaker shut off after two hours. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, I just turned it back on and life was good.

Now before I go on with my story, I need to explain how this coffeemaker works. You pour the water into the first reservoir (for water only) using the coffee tank to measure the amount of water. The coffee tank is placed back on the coffeemaker and the coffee filter and coffee is placed in a basket that fits on top of the coffee tank. The coffee is made and held in the coffee tank. To dispense the coffee, you place your cup below the tank and push on the dispenser button with your cup. Coffee pours right into the cup. Great idea, too bad it doesn't work as well as the concept!

Today coffee was brewed at 5:00 AM again. That's the only thing that worked well. When my husband tried to get a cup of coffee it poured out and would not stop. The cup overflowed, the coffee ran all over the counter and continued to flow until he unplugged it and put the entire coffeemaker in the sink. It finally stopped pouring out when it ran out of coffee. I've cleaned the coffee tank and it continues to pour no matter what I do. Since this coffeemaker runs just under $ 50, the twelve cups of coffee we've made with it very expensive!

I've emailed Hamilton Beach and am awaiting an answer to this dilemma. I need to purchase another coffeemaker today and it definitely won't be a Hamilton Beach brand. I can't afford to purchase a new coffeemaker every other day!

My advice is to purchase a different brand and stay away from this one. Unless you don't have cups and want to slurp your coffee off of the counter!

Honest reviews on Hamilton Beach 12-Cup BrewStation

I didn't look for a coffee pot without a carafe, but when I saw it, I decided to give it a try. What I found, I like.

This coffee pot lets you dispense coffee one cup at a time. You still brew it a pot at a time, however, it dispenses the coffee one cup at a time as you need it. Just press your coffee cup against the silver button (kind of like a soda machine at a restaurant). The coffee stays inside of a removable bucket and is kept comfortably warm.

I haven't had a single drip from this unit that wasn't as desired right into my cup!

One advantage that was unexpected was that this unit is kid-friendly. We never considered asking our 8 year old son to get us a cup of coffee because the weight of a full pot of steaming hot coffee would be too dangerous. However, without a carafe, this isn't an issue. Our son is perfectly comfortable with pushing a single cup against the silver button to dispense one cup at a time. Ahhhh!

Finally convenience. This machine couldn't be much easier to use. There is a large plastic bucket with a handle that sits inside the unit. Just pull up the handle and fill it with water and dump the water into the unit. Then, put the bucket back in. Add a filter and push the "On" button. There ya go. To clean it, just remove the bucket. In the days of latte and frapuccino, there's something refreshing about drinking out of a bucket!

I recieved one of the defective ones. It frist started with no current to the coffee maker .By unplugging and plugging back in several times ,I would finally get the clock blinking again .Then its other symptoms of the faulty electrical supply ,it would stop making coffee when only a 1/3 of the pot was brewed ? I would have to restart the brewing process at least 3 times B/4 a fulll pot was brewed ! Hamilton Beach seems to think everyone has a back up coffee maker laying around .They tell you to cut off the cord and send it to them and if you are lucky you may have a new one in 3-4 weeks. In my case I would have to go out and buy a second pot ,while waiting for my replacement ! Thanks to customer service from amazon.com ,they have come up with a differant way to make this customer happy. If I had it to do all over again ,even though I like the potless design of the Brew Station ,I would wait till someone else made a more reliable and better quality built machine ! When they sent me the instructions to cut the cord and mail it to them along with shipping charges for the new maker, I was left speechless and now to find out this is a factory defect ,on what appears to be on a significant amount of these coffee makers ,I believe they have alot of gall making the comsumer pay anything ,for replacement. Has Hamilton Beach ever heard of the two words "class action" ! I will never buy another Hamilton Beach product again. I thank amazon.com for great customer service !

We have one of these Samsung heaters at our business, and it does a great job. It heats and cools a modest sized conference room, about 250 sq ft. We chose the Samsung system for the appearance of the indoor unit. The room has a modern decor, so out of all the options available, we liked the looks of the Samsung Vivace. The indoor unit is attached to a small appliance (heat pump) that sits outside. The two are connected by a couple of small copper pipes and a wire. The outdoor unit has an electrical circuit connected to it. When running, both the indoor and outdoor units are VERY QUIET--this is another benefit. This model of Samsung has a great air cleaner, too. We are very pleased.

I purchased a dutchwest stove around two years ago maybe three. Non cat type with the optional blower. Had to upgrade because my wife is the primary user during day. The old stove required a secret handshake to operate. This dutchwest is awesome, my favorite part is how you can open the ash tray door and instantly reboot the fire. It will go all night stoked at eleven pm damped down. Seven am pile a small batch of wood on top of the ashes open the ash door boom new raging fire. I am writing this review now because I am on line looking for new gaskets for stove. Hope this helps enjoy

LG LP1200dxr 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner Review

Customer Ratings: 4 stars

I've owned this unit for 2 years and it runs 24/7 from around May through September. Other than cleaning the air filter there is no maintenance, and the unit will turn just about any room into an ice box. I originally purchased the unit for an upstairs room with western exposure that would just be unbearably hot during the summer. This unit turned it into the coolest and most pleasant room in the house.

It is a large and heavy unit, and a bit noisy if you plan to sleep in the room with it. But we did get used to the noise, and it was certainly a fair trade off for the comfort it provided. I would not hesitate for a second to purchase this unit again, and when summer rolls around I am so thankful that we have it. Very well built and efficient cooler.

I have had this unit for 3 years and it has performed very well.Even though the portable ones aren't supposed to be as good, we got this as it was well rated at the time. It has vents that go up and down to move the cold air around. It is powerful and gets the room very cold. I am sure it would cool an area 3 times the room I have it in easily. You can program it to a specific temperature. You can set it on dehumidify. It shuts down if the water chamber needs to be emptied and that can happen several times on very humid days but I just put a shallow pan under it and pull the plug to drain it. It has a good solid vent hose and a washable filter that is easy to get to. I have a slider window so I can't mount a permanent AC unit and also it is not my house so this is a great solution. It is a way to change the area you want to cool also. It is heavy and large but is on wheels and it's not whisper quiet but it is basic white noise and easy to sleep through. When not in use in the winter empty and clean and cover it to keep out dust. Store in a warm dry place or mold can grow in air conditioners when they aren't in use. If needs cleaning consult a pro to avoid damaging condenser.

I love this product. It has 4 modes (Cool, Fan, Dry and Energy Saver) and all of them work perfectly! I'm using it in my bedroom which is big and it lowers the temperature to 60F in any of its modes. I got it one month ago and so far, I haven't had any real problem with it. The only thing is that the water container gets full every 20 minutes approximately, when the humidity is around 78% so I would like this container a little bit bigger.

Honest reviews on LG LP1200dxr 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

Best unit ever! I bought this for my bedroom and to give my dog some relief while I am at work. I am a total internet junkie and feel like I am really good at researching online, I was nervous because this was the first AC unit I have ever purchased and most reviews of portable AC units most were not that encouraging. Works so good I am considering moving this unit to my livingroom and getting a smaller unit for my bedroom with less BTU's, I will stick to LG units since I've had good results with this one.

Pros:

1. Super cold! My room is between 200-300 sq ft I leave my door open to the hall/ living room and my bedroom room is like an ice box within minutes, temp set at 64. Sometimes I rig a regular oscillating fan in front of my bedroom door and it will drag the cool air to the living room.

2.There is an "energy saving" option. The temperature will regulate itself, great to be able to leave it on when I am at work and come back to a cooled down room.

3.I have not had to worry about emptying out the water tray at all and I ran the unit continuously last summer.

4.The self cleaner mode is awesome.

Cons:

1.Electric cord is too short. I do not have many outlet options in my apartment and since the cord is so short it's pretty much stationed to one outlet that barely reached a window for the exhaust.

FYI: I have the old school crank windows that open left to right that force me to leave the window open all the time for the exhaust to exit. I had a piece of thick plexi glass cut to the size of my window with a 6x6 inch square cut out of one corner so the exhaust can escape. I replaced my screen with the plexi glass to comp for the window remaining open. I have security bars on my windows to I wasn't worried about safety. Just in case anyone else has this issue.

I got this portable air conditioner to cool the second floor of my one and a half story bungalow. I only have to run it for 2 or 3 hours in the evening to get the second floor bedroom nice and cool for sleeping. It is a little loud, but it is basically white noise and very easy for me to tune out. It is necessary to drain the water once every few days into a shallow pan (it's the only thing that will fit under the lower drain), but you don't need a way to let it drain while it is running. When the water tank gets full, it shuts itself off, so no mess to clean up. It is also very easy to fit the exhaust vent into the window when I want air conditioning and take it out when I want fresh air. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. It does exactly what I wanted it to.

I had read reviews for it a few years ago, and the negative reviews convinced me that it wasn't worth buying. Why buy something when I could clean better without it? I got it as a christmas present a few months ago. It has some issues, but I'm still giving it five stars because I still love it!

SUCTION: It is true that the Little Green is not as powerful as a regular steam cleaner. But the suction is still pretty good. If you hold incorrectly, the opening isn't pressed against the carpeting and so it won't suck anything up. You have to make sure that the opening is sealed against the carpet. Once you know what angle to hold it at, it is easy to get it right. If you are confused about this, try it out on your palm.

SPRAYS EVERYWHERE: It sprays the water in a wide "fan". If it sprayed a tiny stream it would take forever to spray something, so the wide spray is good. If you were using a spray bottle, you'd have the same "problem". If you really don't want to hit something move it or cover it.

LEAKS: If you leave it sitting around full of water, it will leak. Mine has never leaked while I was cleaning, but one time I left it on the kitchen floor overnight and it left a pretty big puddle (of cleaning solution, not the dirty water). When you are done using it, you have to rinse it out and put it away. If I have a lot of cleaning fluid leftover, I put the tank in my mop bucket (opening facing up).

DIRTY WATER TANK HAS GUNK AND HAIR IN IT: Don't you ever vacuum?!(kidding). Pour hot water in there (bathtub faucet works great), slosh it around, and dump it out. Do that a few times. Don't leave dirty water in it, or it will smell. It's dirty water.

YES IT HAS ISSUES, BUT, IT IS WORTH HAVING AROUND: When I think of all the times I had to clean diaper blowout, spit-up, cat puke, and spilled drinks out of the carpet by soaking it up with rags, spraying it, waiting ten minutes and then "dabbing" (over and over and over again, with all the windows open) I just have to think of something else and try to stay positive. If anything happened to my Little Green I would buy a new one in a heartbeat.

I have been using it for months, but today was the day I knew I had to write a review for the Little Green. My toddler took off his diaper, "had an accident" and ground it into the creamy white carpet until there was over a square foot of... well, it was pretty horrible. If I had to spray and "dab" that clean, I'd still be working on it next week. But with the Little Green it took about 20 minutes and that includes the extra time it took to clean out the Little Green (because: ewww).

After having a baby with reflux, two cats, a husband, and ME using tan microsuede couches for almost 4 yrs, I was about to pay to have them professionally cleaned. When I looked into the cost of that, I then started looking for upholstery cleaning machines. With microsuede, if you dont remove all of the water, a horrible watermark is left and these compound over time and make the appearance of the fabric look awful. I knew that whatever I purchased was going to have to be able to remove the cleaning fluid AND clean really well.

This product not only meets my standards, but exceeds them! Worked like a charm and will save us tons of money in the future since we have a new baby coming in 6 wks!

FYI, included with the machine is an 8oz bottle of the cleaner (Advanced Stain). I bought a 32oz bottle along with the bissell because I wasn't sure how much I was going to need per cleaning (only a few ozs!!!) and wasn't sure if any came with the machine. The 8 oz. bottle will last me a good amount of time! Just thought I would mention that!

The machine is a little loud (wasn't sure of what to expectsounds like a vacuum). But, it's worth every penny!!!!!

After reading reviews on Amazon, I sent my grandson to buy locally the Bissell SpotBot Pet Carpet Cleaner. He had not seen what I wanted, and brought this home by mistake. It is the best spot carpet cleaner we could want. The power brush works well, and the vacuum extracts the filth and water, so the restored carpet dries quickly. My house is a severe test, since we have multiple pets, and the less said the better. We have used other carpet-cleaning products with this, besides the little bottle included, and they work well, and the machine has not clogged.

Honest reviews on BISSELL Little Green ProHeat Compact Multi-Purpose Carpet Cleaner

This is the best hundred bucks I have ever spent! I have had this product for several months. I wanted to have plenty of time to use it and really test it out before reviewing. I really wanted the spot bot but could not justify spending that much money on it. After owning it I am VERY happy that I ended up with this instead of the spot bot. I LOVE this machine. I have two dogs and a child (also a military husband who tracks in god knows what on his dirty boots every day) and my carpet is fighting a never ending battle to survive. With this machine I have been able to VERY quickly clean up messes and also remove stains that have been in my carper for over a year. One of my dogs has a bladder issue that has required three surgeries in the past year. In the weeks leading up to and the two weeks following these surgeries he becomes incontinent and leaves at least a half dozen stains (more simply put, he pees in the carpet)per DAY. I have had problems in the past with trying to clean these messes up and just before buying this product I was thinking of replacing my carpet. I bought the little green proheat and proheat carpet shampooer on the same day. THEY ARE BOTH AMAZING! Since I began using them my carpet looks brand new. Literally. My neighbors all comment on how clean my carpet is and ask what type it is since it still looks brand new. I LOVE IT! Every time my dog has an accident or my kid spills something I just grab my little green, spend 30-60 second using it and BAM!, the mess is gone. I have used this to clean us fresh messes and also to clean up very old stains that I thought had no chance at coming out. I am so glad that I did not spend the extra money on the spot bot since I have read it can take over an hour to clean one stain. The little green is so much faster and could not be easier to use!

The only thing I must warn your about is that it is a good idea to actually empty the dirty water tank after each use. I forgot to do this for almost a month and started to notice an unpleasant odor every time I started to use it. When I finally had to empty the dirty water chamber I realized that this was there the smell was coming from. For the first two months I was religious about cleaning the dirty chamber and Flushing the spray line with hot water (as I had read that spray line clogging seemed to be a problem for a few people.) After several months of use I have not been flushing the spray line and only suck up some clean water from my kitchen sink after each use and mine is performing beautifully. It is very simple to use and requires no real preparation. I simply fill the cleaning solution tank when It is empty (rarely) and put it in the closet and it is ready to go at a moments notice. The suction is amazing and the cleaning solution is quite hot after the heater has had 15-20 seconds to heat up. You will not regret buying this product; I promise! If mine were to break tomorrow I would absolutely run out and buy another!

I really look at all the reviews of everything before I buy it. I don't usually write reviews but I felt that this little machine has been so great that I had to let people know. First off, out of millions of these machines sold there is possibly going to be a lemon in the group. If yours doesn't work return it and try a new one. I think I have the slightly older model because mine doesn't have the skinny attachment shown in this picture, but it's the same machine.

I've had this machine over 2 years now and it still works great. It's light and compact, the hose is adequate to get where you need to without bumping into the machine all the time. The machine itself is quieter than some other machines, but of course it's going to be somewhat noisy. You won't be able to clean in a sleeping baby's room, but it won't wake up the whole household if you have to use it in the middle of the night. The electrical cord is long enough to extend to places you need to go and it's very compact and it fits neatly under my bathroom sink without taking up all the room. I like the heater for the water because sometimes the water in the tank can cool down before you are finished with cleaning the spot. The instructions are very easy to follow and it's pretty easy to clean out when you are done. The dirty water tank you do have to rinse a few times and shake the container to get rid of any debris, but truly not that big of a deal. The super tough stain brush is helpful for tough stains. I usually don't have to use it though because the regular attachment does fine.

All in all I would highly recommend this machine. It has been a life saver of stains in my carpets. I have 1 cat, that pukes, a dog and kids and this has saved my carpets many times.

Like a previous reviewer I got the heater damaged. It was banged in on the side. On the same side the piece you handle it with( since you cannot touch the fins when it's hot) was half broken off. I was so desperate for the heater that I overlooked it since it didn't affect the fins for the heat.

On the positiveit does work well for heating a small room.

it was cheaper than similiar heaters(in the $30's) when I purchased it.

it appears to be a safe heater.

On the negativethere's no numbers on the unit just high or low and some dots in between these levels, so you cannot gauge the different levels between high & low.

it increases the electric bill more than I expected it would which makes it expensive to run.

Honest reviews on Seasons Comfort EOF201, Seven Fin Oil Filled Radiant Heater, White

For some reason the product was shipped without much care taken (UPS) and arrived in a banged up box. Even the styrofoam packing inside was broken into pieces. The heater inside did not look completely new, either, with black scuff-marks on the front panel. However, the hardware all looked completely pristine and new. Indeed, I am not a fussy consumer, so ultimately I wouldn't care if it were a returned product sold as new. Bottom line: it works absolutely perfectly. Exceeds expectations. The hardware was easy to attach. The heat is consistent, silent, odorless and safe. I use it around my small son with no worries. It has no temperature setting in actual numbers (C or F) that you can set, so you do have to guess by trial and error until you find a temperature that you wish the product to maintain. That is the downside. But, it will maintain that temp. all night, perfectly, with no cold intervals while it turns on again. The price is lower than competitors, but with the exorbitant shipping cost (see complaints about shipping above), the final price is equal to or slightly lower than DeLonghi, for example. I am happy with this product and expect to use it for many years.

We already had the 30,000 BTU heater and it works great. This 20,000 works just as well. The thermostat keeps the temp pretty even....no constant adjusting or getting to hot or too cold. We don't have electric for the blower yet but the blower on the 30,000 works very well. The pilot ignition is much better than our older heaters...just a gentle press of the button.

This is my compromise to a wood burning stove for these Michigan winters. It's quite superior in many ways to a wood stove as much as I hate to admit it! Natural gas is cheap for one... and this does not use much of it either. I find in our 12'x15' room I'm quite comfy keeping this thing on its lowest settings 1 or 2 out of 5. We use this in addition to our natural gas forced air furnace. Evenings after work I don't need to heat the whole house toasty warm so I just heat up one room that way.

It automatically turns on and off as needed, regardless if you choose to use the blower fan or not. The blower fan can be on all the time, or also activated by the thermostat. I'm having zero issues with the AA battery ignition system, just remember to hold the thermostat button down for a few seconds after the thing lights the pilot so the thermocouple can heat up. If there is any complaint, it's that the fan is a little on the loud side but again not mandatory to use. I also wish it would smell like a fireplace at times :-) Great unit!

Best Mr. Coffee MWBLK Mug Warmer Deals

Mr. Coffee MWBLK Mug Warmer
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

As with everything, I went on a search of all mug warmers in the universe before buying this one. I found a universal complaint of ALL mug warmer reviewers (of any brand) was "doesn't get hot enough" (especially the USB models). I think the manufacturers walk a thin line between "doesn't get hot enough" and setting the house on fire.

Initially, I tried putting a cold cup of coffee upon my new Mr. Coffee and was disappointed in the warmer's ability to heat up an already cold cup of coffee. (tried both metal and ceramic mug)

The good news is that if you put a fresh hot cup of coffee right from the coffee maker onto the "burner" that it does a pretty good job in keeping it hot from that point. I review this as satisfactory performance and give extra credit for its slim and sleek design.

I bought my Mr. Coffee mug warmer locally at a store. I wasn't expecting much out of it because of the reviews about it here on Amazon, but hey it was really cheap, under ten bucks. I was pleasantly surprised at how it kept my cup of tea consistently very warm throughout the day while I'm at work. This is how hot the heating plate can get: put a drop or two of water on it, and the drops will sizzle and evaporate quickly. The key to getting the best experience out of using the Mr. Coffee mug warmer is to use with a cup of HOT tea/coffee/soup/whatever. It won't make your cold beverage hot again (use a microwave for that).

Best Deals for Mr. Coffee MWBLK Mug Warmer

I've had it for several months now, using it daily, and it's performed very well! Here is the deal with temperatures. If you place a hot cup of tea/coffee on it, it keeps it hot! Not the burn your tongue hot. As you drink, the cup becomes less full, and actually heats the contents more. Also, I've placed a half full cup of cold coffee on it, and it heated it up to a nice warm temperature within a few minutes. The heating plate will accommodate larger coffee mugs. The only disadvantage I've noticed with it is the counter gets rather warm were it is placed, so keep flammables and paper away to be safe. Also it does not have a auto shutoff that I'm aware of, however I have it plugged into a power box with motion control, so if I leave my desk for a long period it will shut off. I also try to make sure the bottom of my mug is dry before setting the cup down on it, to keep the heating plate clean. So if your like me and like sipping on tea or coffee at the office, with out going to refill for a hot cup every time your liquids get cold, then you'll be happy with this warmer.

A lot of reviewers have stated that this hot plate does not get warm enough to keep your coffee hot. I disagree, but also think I know why they are having that experience. How well this warmer works is extremely sensitive to the shape of your coffee mug, in particular the way that the bottom is. I did some controlled experiments to determine how much heat this warmer puts into a liquid in a cup and found as much as 30 degrees of variation between different mugs of the same or similar material.

The bottom line, is that any hotplate style coffee warmer depends on maximum surface area contact with the bottom of your mug. If you have a mug that is broad and flat at the bottom, filling the heating surface of the warmer, it will work great. If you mug is very narrow at the bottom or arches up so that only the edge is touching, the heater cannot be as effective.

You should either buy a different mug, or forego this energy wasting method altogether, in favor of a well insulated stainless steel vacuum mug like the ones from Contigo. Personally, I like the taste of coffee best out of a real mug, so I continue to use this warmer, just with a broad based mug.

I don't know why so many people have trouble with this item. My mother-in-law gave this to me well over a month ago and I think it's the greatest thing since TIVO. The key is to use a regular size cup with a flat bottom (not the ginormous ceramic cups that are more like SOUP bowls and only have a tiny bottom), and to put it on the warmer as soon as you pour the coffee into the cup. It WILL keep it not just warm, but HOT. It is 3:30 in the afternoon right now and I am still sipping on a HOT cup of coffee that I poured at 8:00 this morning. The lower the liquid gets, the hotter it gets, so be careful. I've also found that putting a piece of paper over the cup (like a piece of junk mail or an old CD case--without the CD inside, of course) will infinitely increase the heat factor, though it's not too safe and really isn't necessary (I've done it a few times when the dogs were shedding and my husband wanted the ceiling fans on didn't want dog hair in my cup, so I covered it...and it was so hot I burned my tongue.) Regardless, this item (the Mr. Coffee Mug *WARMER*) is not meant to heat up cold liquids; that's what microwaves were invented for. This is a great product when used properly and at the very least, it does what it was intended to do: keep beverages warm.

It does not work properly and I don't know what to do about it, unless I send it back. The flame does not come on even though I follow the sketchy instructions carefully. Margaret

I recently bought the heater and for now it is awesome. First if all the width fits perfectly in my fireplace, so no reconstruction. The flames emitted enhances the ambience of my living room and also Ian pleased with the heat it gives out. At first I was skeptical to purchase this heater but one review wasn't enough to deter me from trying out the product. I am well pleased.

This would be a five star review if the description were accurate.

The description says it has a thermostat. There is none. It simply has Low and High, and you can get some variations in between. It does not regulate itself to maintain a desired temperature, as would be indicated by the description "thermostat".

To be honest, though... Based on the price, I pretty much figured that it would not have one, and it does what I expected it to do.

I think the description should be amended.

I am ordering the much more expensive 20k and 30k versions of this heater. I expect they will actually have a thermostat... hopefully.

Best constructed, best control knob system, best set of legs, best heat transfer.

I hooked it up at one end of a small apartment and it transferred the heat easily through-out the apartment even to a shower room just off the hallway.

I purchased this heater for a rental unit on the back of my house on hopes of reducing the electric bill. The blue flame option was what I needed since the space is limited and I dont want my tenant to complain about his furniture getting too hot or even himself by standing on front of it. Installation was kind of easy, I like the fact that it comes with expansors, and required screws, the only tricky part was to reach the back wall panel on the bottom to secure it to the wall.

Settings are low or hi, my tenant says that it works great and he is just not trying to find a happy point. Will be updating rating as I heard more from him.

I bought this heater for my 90 year old Dad. This product was easy for him to learn how to use. Especially love the safety features(turns off at overheating & turns off if tipped over). I was worried that my Dad wouldn't be able to move it from room to room but it was so lightweight that he enjoys it in every room. The oscillation is also a great feature because it heats up a larger area. I was very pleased with how quickly the product was delivered. All in all it is wonderful & I thank Amazon for the speedy service.

It works fine as a heater, with nice slim design and buttons.

But it's a bit louder than I thought it'd be!!

I even phoned them to check if I this is normal and they admitted that they make some sound, unlike their humidifier.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to sleep with it on.

I might return it after few days, depends on how well it warms up the room.....

Very capable medium sized heater. It was able to heat up my medium sized room to 70 degrees within 30 minutes while on the low setting. I live in Boston, and the electric heating bills during the winter months are ridiculous. So, I'm hoping this heater can keep my room warm at a reasonable rate as compared to my electric baseboards. The heater, has an excellent, easy to use touch sensitive display and looks very sleek.

Honest reviews on Crane EE-6353 Space Heater 600/1200 Watt

This space heater arrived promptly and in excellent condition. The only problem is that it is adequate for small rooms only. I wish the heater were a bit more powerful. However, it is attractive and adequate for small areas and when only a minimum amount of extra heating is desired.

Amazon carries another heater by the same maker as this one, it is the "Crane EE-6490 Space Heater 600/1200 Watt". The Product Features and Details seem to be switched on these two. At least this is my assumption; check them both out and you will probably agree.

For instance, the larger one is probably the one that is 20" tall, and the smaller one 8.6" tall. Another important difference: the smaller one probably does not come with a remote, but the larger one probably does.

I bought this unit to replace the one on my Amana Model SRD21VW-P1315501WW. The refridgerator called out for a Defrost Thermostat R0161088 which is the same sensor unit with a large harness and several connectors which cost $34 and required running wires through the back wall of the freezer compartment.

My freezer kept getting stuck in a defrost cycle (ice cubes melt and then freezing back into a big chunk). To test, I cut the old one out of the existing harness, leaving about 4" inches on the thermostat. I then put the T-Stat in ice water to check for continuity and removed it to if it opened at around 40-50 degrees. The thermostat failed so I ordered this one as a replacement. Crimped on male and female connectors to the harness and the new thermostat and voila! My refridgerator was back in business.

Exactly what I needed. Amana fridge was building up frost/ice in the back of the freezer. After melting with a hair dryer, it worked okay for two weeks, then all the ice/frost built up again. The thermostat was not allowing the defrost heater to kick in (once a day) to melt the ice. This thermostat fit the bill and cost way less than calling a repair person. Identical to the original.

Great ! OEM pproduct. It wired right up no problem. Mine went bad. And anywhere in town they wanted an arm and a leg for one of the defrost t-stats and they are fairly cheap and amazon had what I was looking for at the right price. Can't beat that with a stick!

I bought this heater to take the chill off some of the cold days we had in Florida this last "winter". I did not need to put on my central heating system to heat the whole house when I am in the living room, this little heater did the job just fine.
