Perfect size for a small apartment. The remote works well. Haven't used it for heat but the fire is very cozy even though it's not the most realistic flame. Very happy with the rich color and finish.

Despite all the negative reviews of this unit on Amazon.com, I found several other positive reviews elsewhere on the internet, and so I decided to give it a try. I'll admit I was skeptical as to how this unit would perform, especially since it seemed to be much less expensive than other 12,000 BTU units AND it included heat pump functionality. That being said, I am quite pleased with its performance so far.

After the terrible process of having to return a damaged portable AC unit of another brand just a week earlier, I was relieved to see when this one arrived at my door in rather robust packaging. Lifting it out of its "easy open" outer box and inner cardboard crate, I was able to observe its features in person for the first time. The multi-color display is a nice touch; the bright VFD display provides simple animations of the unit's current function, as well as a basic clock (used for setting the on/off timer), and the current temperature setting. The remote control sits in a holster on the back of the unit. I found the remote to be a bit bland, with all the buttons but the power button the same size and no distinction of the most frequently used buttons (i.e. temperature, mode) from the less frequently used extras (i.e. sleep mode, Celsius/Fahrenheit setting). The use of the remote is limited anyways since the display on the unit sits facing upward, preventing you from seeing what you are doing unless you are hovering above it.

Installation is pretty straightforward. The user's manual includes several photographs of the installation process, which doesn't differ much from any single-hose portable AC on the market. You simply screw the hose into the adapters and attach the adapters onto the back of the unit and onto the adjustable panel which you close in your window.

So now the important part: how it works. I found the unit to perform quite well. The AC function is plenty cool, and with three fan settings, you can adjust the level of output (and noise) to the current conditions. The heat pump also works well, and I was impressed with the fact that the unit waits to start blowing air into the room until the heat pump has begun generating warm air. That way, on a cold winter's day you won't get a rush of cold air in your face while the unit starts up. After your set temperature is reached, the unit shuts down completely (including the fan). Perhaps handy for some people is an auto mode which automatically heats if the temperature is below 68°F, dehumidifies if the temperature is between 68°F and 80°F, and cools if over 80°F. There also is an oscillation feature which helps circulate the air into the room.

As others have said, this AC unit is not super quiet. While in fan-only mode, the noise is minimal, but while heating, cooling, or dehumidifying, the exhaust fan in the back of the unit adds a considerable amount more. While nobody will be fooled into thinking a jet is landing, some may find it difficult to sleep with the unit in the room if it is doing anything but circulating air.

Just another quick note about draining the water bucket... be prepared to empty it no less often than most air conditioning units, regardless of what the manufacturer claims it can evaporate through the hose. I also agree with others who have said that the drainage plug is really close to the ground, so you may want to place it on a hard surface or elevate it slightly to assist in the drainage process. You do get a short hose and drip pan in the box to help you empty the moisture into a larger pan, but you may want to keep a towel handy as well.

Overall, this air conditioner/heat pump unit is a economical choice if you need all-season comfort in an area of your home. Various room-size estimations abound, some even rating this unit up to 500 sq. ft. My suggestion is that you use this unit for no more than a single large room, as you will probably see much worse performance if you try to heat or cool an entire floor with it. But for supplemental heating or cooling, you really cannot go wrong with the Soleus Air PH3-12R-03.

I had this AC unit for less than 1 months and it now SCREAMS! due to a bad pump. The manufacturer said they would "look at it" but I had to pay the shipping cost to ship to them in CA. Not worth the cost of the shipping, Total waste of money. NEVER buy from Soleus! Crap manufacturing, cheap plastic parts. poor warranty service. $400 just thrown away for something that only work for 2 months at best! I'd give zero stars if I could! DO NOT BUY, you have been warned!!!!!!

I just bought this 3 weeks ago. After numerous window units I thought I would try a portable unit so I could direct the air where I wanted it. First of all this unit was difficult to install. The directions were terrible. I have had a lot less problem with my previous window units. 12,000 BTU's should cool my entire living/dining room. It works okay if you are directly in front of it, but 8-10 feet away just so so. It is as loud as any window unit I have had. It does not cool down to lowest temp so compressor is always on. After running it quite a bit for three days I just had to drain the condensation holding tank which was an experience in and of itself! The plug is on the bottom about a half inch from the floor. It is below the hose so you have to remove that. When you remove the cap, there is no type of plug, so the water immediately begins pouring into the pitiful plastic drainage tray that is provided that holds about 1/2 cup at the most. With a 1.5 liter tank to drain you need to also have a bucket or a bowl and plenty of towels as I found it impossible to stop the flow trying to empty the tray of water into the bucket. Long story short, don't waste your money. Way to expensive for the hassle. I'm going to go have a beer and make up with my dogs who are quivering outside after hearing my yelling of obscenities during the drainage process.

Honest reviews on Soleus Air PH3-12R-03 Portable Evaporative Heat Pump/Air

I hope my review can save someone else the trouble and expense that I have endured, I purchased this unit for $420 and we used it for 1 month then put it away until the next summer well when next summer came around it didn't work just hot air comes out.

We call soleus air to use the 1 year manufacturer warranty and indeed they have told me that I will get a new one but I have to ship the old one back at my expense which from michigan to california is $160 shipping and packaging but they don't tell you this and every other company I have ever used pays shipping on a defective product especially one that was only used for a month.

I have $600 into this unit now and they are sending a new one supposedly but what about when this one goes out then I have to pay another $160 to ship it back???? what kind of service is that? My mother purchased one of these units before she had central air installed and she got 2 months out of hers and threw it in the garbage rather than pay the shipping back which is probably a smart move.

I wish that I had asked my mother what brand unit she had before I bought mine it would have saved me $600 bucks and they can keep sending me their junk until one actually makes it a year or I get tired of spending $160 to send them back or get central air which I can't afford but at the price this has cost me I almost could have bought central air.

They were nasty about it on the phone too with the attitude that this is their policy and too bad if you don't like it so if you want to brave it and buy their junk go right ahead but don't say you weren't warned.

The junk companies like soleus air have their people put good reviews on their products it's been a practice of these junk peddlers for a long long time so that explains the couple of good reviews.

This air conditioner/heater/dehumidifier is highly overrated by the manufacturer. 12,000 BTU should make your home feel like a refrigerator. It doesn't! It doesn't come close to the air cooling capacity of window units with less than half this rating. The drainage outlet is located way too close to the floor thereby not allowing for a hose to drain properly without elevating the unit. While there is a condensation overflow tank drainage again is an issue. I ran the unit for a solid eight hours at the lowest temperature setting/highest fan speed and the first floor of my small home was only marginally cooler. I was very disappointed as I had hoped this was the answer to both my cooling and heating needs.

I have used many heaters for ice fishing for my tents and of all the ones I have used this one is by far the best one I have ever used. It puts off plenty of heat for a 2 man, 3 man, and 4 man ice fishing tents with no problem it does so well that after about 25 minutes to 35 minutes of use in an ice fishing tent my buddies and I have to turn it down to either low or off because this heater WILL bake you out of the tent LOL. I have also used this in camping tents with no problems at all, we usually run the heater for about 35 minutes to get the tent nice and warm then turn it off and get into our sleeping bags. Just make sure that you don't kick this over after you turn it off in a camping tent it stays warm for awhile and it will melt/burn the hell out of your tent. I highly recommend this heater for anybody that camps or ice fishes in high altitude areas, unlike other heaters that have touchy low oxygen sensors and shut off and have a hard time reigniting this one will not give you ANY problems igniting and staying lit in a high altitude area. I have used other Mr. Heaters with the ceramic plates and most of them are crap if you are in high altitude areas, they work good in lower altitude areas but this one will give you no problems no matter where you are.

I purchased the roll and glow fireplace from HSN. Love it, it really keeps my living room warm and I do not have to run the base board heater, which saved me over $100 heating cost per month. However, I did not purchase the filter for the Roll and Glow and too much dust got into the heating element and caused it to go out. I thought that I was going to have to purchase a whole new unit. But just by chance I thought that I would check Amazon to see if a replacement fan blower and heating element could be purchased. I purchased the replacement part. My brother and I removed the old unit and put in the new one and we are up and going. Works wonderfully. So happy with this product! Also, it was not too difficult to install, I did not see any directions in the package, but everything just plugs in to the electronic panel on the fireplace. We just mapped which wire went where, because the stock element was the exact same as the replacement, unplugged the old (which was not that easy, take your time with it) and plugged in the new element which was a breeze. Thank you!

I figure the labor charge and the gas burned from taking it to a repair center, (nearest one to me is 25 miles), would have at least tripled what it cost me to just do it myself. The connections are very tight, even taking my time I still managed to pull one of the wires out of the connector, giving myself an additional small repair job.

Holmes Wall Mount Space Heater Fan Review

Customer Ratings:

I own two of these, one in a small bathroom, and one in a larger 9' X 9' bathroom.

The unit is compact; it has a plastic part that you fasten into the wall, and then the heater rotates sideways to fit into it, then back to vertical to lock in place.

The controls have a power button, a LOW button, a HIGH button, and several temperature settings. We don't use the temperature settings, so I won't comment on them here. The heater works great in both locations; the small bathroom uses low heat and the larger bathroom uses high heat.

One needs to be aware that when powering off the unit, you have to hold the button; the lights will change (clockwise), but the next time you power on the unit, the last setting you used will be set. In other words, if you have the unit on HIGH and you PRESS the power button, it will go to LOW heat. In the same situation if you HOLD the power button, the light will indicate LOW heat for a second before the unit turns off, but the next time you power up it will be in HIGH heat.

The unit has an overtemp circuit if it gets too hot it will shut down and it requires a lot of time to completely cool before it will allow a power up. We discovered this when we attempted HIGH heat in our smaller bathroom but now we save energy by using the LOW setting, so it was a good experience.

The unit also has an ALCI plug, which means that if you drop it in the tub or just generally get it wet, the unit will disconnect from the mains and is not hazardous the plug will simply blow it's circuit and the unit shuts down. This is perfect for bathrooms.

Excellent unit, great operation, nice design. Recommended.

I bought this heater last year for the guest bathroom thinking it was inexpensive, and small.

Now that it started getting cold again I could not find the bigger heater for my master bath, so I got this "little one". I mounted it on the wall (away from the bathtub and shower). It took all of one minute to mount it.

The thermostat setting is great because I leave the unit running all the time at 65 degrees, then bring it up to 70 in the morning. It only came on once or twice overnight, but the bathroom is not icy cold.

Pros:

has thermostat you can set by 5 degree increments.

Cons:

turning the unit on and off is difficult

thermostat settings don't go low enough and have a useless high end

I have a Lasko 754200 Ceramic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat, but the continuous thermostat doesn't have any degree markings. I thought I would try this Holmes heater that has settings for 60,65,70,75, and 80 degrees. I use this in an unheated attic that I use for office space when I work from home. I find myself wanting to turn the heater on or off several times a day, but there is NOT simple on/off switch. There are 13 settings on the heater:

1. off

2. low no thermostat

3. hi no thermostat

4.-8. low on each of 5 thermostat settings

9.-13. high on each of 5 thermostat settings

There is a single button to cycle through these settings. If the heater is on low/65, then you have to push the button exactly 4 times to turn the heater off. If you accidentally push it on too many times, then you have to push it 12 more times to cycle through all the settings again. Very annoying if you want to change the settings with any frequency.

The thermostat is set in 5 degree increments which is fine enough me. However, I could see myself wanting a temperature setting of less than 60 degrees at some point (such as to prevent pipes from freezing), but this isn't available. Yet the unit does have an 80 degree setting, which I can't see myself ever using. At 80 degrees, I am turning the air conditioning on!

I will not be buying another one of these in the future, but will go with the Lasko instead, which I have really liked. You don't know the exact temperature setting you are getting with the thermostat with the Lasko. However, on the Lasko the thermostat has a much greater range and is very easy to turn on and off. This Holmes unit works great if you always need the same setting, but otherwise it is a pain.

Unit shuts down when small internal tank fills with condensation. Must empty/drain daily in warm weather, or weekly in mild weather. Drain is very close to floor. So close a deck of cards will not fit under drain. The unit weighs 65 lbs. It is very hard to lift, tilt and drain into a bowl, or can. I contacted customer service and asked for tips or suggestions. I was hoping that they could suggest something that others had used to solve the problem. Customer support said each customer must do what works for them. I heard,"You bought it, it's your problem, figure it out." I think I will try to find a small sturdy plant stand, or table to set the unit 4 or 5 inches off the floor. Then I can put a good sized pan or conainer under to drain and only need to empty the water once r twice a week. I hate standing on my head or crawling around on my knees trying not to slop water all over In fairness the unit preforms well, is sturdy, ez to use and all around very good. But now I need to build or buy some Rube Goldberg system to take care of a problem that could have been cured with bigger wheels, or some how raising the unit 2 or 3 inches before selling it to the public and making it the consumers problem. This would be a great unit if you had sloped concrete floors in a garage.

This unit is easy to set up , made well . It cooled an upstairs bedroom in a poorly insulated house , fairly large room at that , eventually got it down to 70 degrees .No problem with it spitting moisture or needing to be drained as it says in its item description,even in a high humid room.BUT ,is this thing LOUD . On the lowest setting its noisier than any other AC I've ever owned.I had it running 2 days and gave up on it ,Threw my old AC back in the window because I could not sleep through the noise this monster makes ,and Im a person that can fall asleep anywhere with a TV blasting .This thing kept me up 2 nights in a row .I had to shut it down.Its more suited for a large wreck room , cellar,garage, or outside enclosure where noise wont be an isssue and it can be pushed off into a far away corner !!

Now I dont know what to do with it and Im $350.00 bucks lighter in the wallet ......

Im back to finish this review after this summer of 2013 . These portable ACs are not worth the money ! The design is flawed ! The hot exhuast hose is fed out the window ,but it is constantly re-warming the air in the room because it is so hot. Most very hot days ,this unit could NOT get the roon cooler than 80 degrees .

I don't know why Amazon.com is using a drawing of a bathroom vanity instead of a photo of this great little heat panel. Visit other sites to see what it really looks like. Photos show it as a grey panel with rounded corners. This is accurate, but what the photos don't show is that the front surface is covered with a soft, felt-like covering which adds to the warmth of this little gem. The back is just metal. It heats up quickly and silently and radiates warmth almost instantly. It would easily fit under a desk. It's hard to believe it only uses 150 watts of electricity. I like this unit better than others I've looked at, since it comes with attachable feet and the on/off switch has a red light to remind you that it's on. The switch and light are on the right side and can be easily seen from the front. I'm very pleased with it. But keep in mind, it's meant to be close to you, and it probably won't help heat up an entire room. Still, the warmth it radiates is impressive.

Wonderful, warm, safe, uses barely any electricity, and adds just that right amount of warmth to one person (on top of normal house heating). Great if you have one person in a household who gets cold, but the other people are not cold. Great if you sit at a desk all day and want a heat source near you that is safe. Will help heat up a very small bedroom easily.

I purchased this for under my desk in my home office as my feet are always cold.

It works "okay" and emits a constant, small, soothing amount of heat, but does not get real warm.

I was finding myself pulling it between my legs. Then it felt much warmer. (Heat comes out both sides.)

I was sensible when I purchased it knowing that it is only 150 Watts ... there is only so much heat that a unit of that size will throw.

What I did next was the "ticket" to total and complete warmth for my feet under my desk!

After this purchase, I purchased a heated floor mat. (Foot Warmer – Cozy Toes – 18"W x 19"D x 1/2"H)

That floor mat product is excellent and gets very warm.

I now use the 2 products together and I'm extremely happy.

This heating panel is definitely better than nothing, but If I could recommend one or the other, it would be the floor mat. It emits much more heat directly to the feet.

I hope this was helpful!

This is a great little heater if you need to heat a small enclosed space or simply provide some extra warmth to an area. I use this heater for my birds. I was forced to move them into the basement and this heater allowed me to do that without compromising their health. The birds can bathe, relax, and play without getting too cold or too hot. There is no temperature adjustment but, really, it doesn't need it. The front gets hot but not enough to really catch fire or burn someone right away. Although, leaving your hand there for a few seconds might result in a minor burn. The lighted on/off switch is a nice touch. Overall, I like it so far... we'll see how long it lasts.

Summary: A real time saver for cleaning the numerous spills stains and messes from kids and pets. Semi-Automatically (see details) cleans vomit and other unpleasant messes.

We have 3 kids (ages 2, 4 and 7) and 2 cats. One of our cats (Pukey cat, AKA Natasha) is a Siamese and vomits regularly. Our youngest is potty trained but still doesn't fully comprehend the concept of wiping one's behind on toilet paper. Need I say more? We're using this thing perhaps three times a week.

This device is a bit larger than you'd expect. At approx 8"x16"x16 it's about as big as a small canister vacuum.

It cleans an 8" circle with each cycle. This is typically good enough, when a mess is just larger, I find that it's easier to use the hand attachment (which also has a sprayer) to clean the "outlier" than to run another cycle. With a fresh pot of cleaning solution and an empty collector, it will run 4 cycles. Although it has a "Surface stain" and a "Set-in Stain" cycles, I have yet to find an organic stain (Vomit and stuff from the other end) that needed the "Set-in stain" cycle (which scrubs for six minutes instead of three.) We're pretty good at keeping food on the tile and hardwood floors so far.

The carpet we've used it on are the very short berber (Basement) ~3/8" and 1/" nylon carpet, all light colored / off white. One is a "twist" carpet, the other a pretty standard style

Here are some tips for using it:

1) Use warm water to help soften dried on stains. This one doesn't have an automatic heater (there is a model that does)

2) Don't feel like you need a lot of cleaning solution. The warm water gets out most organic stains on the first try.

3) After each cycle the circle is pretty wet. Use the hand hose to suck out the excess water.

4) Rotate the upper cord stowage hook to quickly remove the cord all at once.

5) Be careful where you put it when you're done you're supposed to be able to leave water in the (clean) water tank and it's not supposed to leak but we have found that occasionally it will drip or leave a few tablespoons of water on the floor. Some of this is probably residual water in the hoses. We wouldn't want to leave it on a hardwood floor where this might be an issue.

A couple of minor complaints:

1) The hand attachment isn't the easiest to remove and re-attach. It would be nicer if the button was larger.

2) The cleaning solution tank is no terribly stable. Be careful not to tip it over before putting the cap on Don't ask me how I know this.

3) The unit is pretty big and storage is always tight

4) Despite the "Microban" the hose still gets a moldy/mildewy layer of crud super nasty. We run a pint of hot water with a little bleach through once a month. Run it through 3-4 times while vigourously shaking the hose and it breaks all that crud off. Then rinse.

As a dog breeder, I needed something to pickup the occasional "oops" on the floor. I had originally had a Little Green Spot Machine. I didn't like that you had to use the hand brush, but I REALLY objected to the fact that when you cleaned organic messes, it stunk so bad you couldn't have it in the house with you, no matter what you did (baking soda) etc.

Bissell finally got it right! The dirty water tank is treated with microbicide--stops that awful smell--and I believe the formulas have some special fresheners in them, because there is not any kind of a smell anymore. Hooray!

I also had a couple of spots of "carpet of horror" near my desk--red wine, chocolate and coffee, cigarette ashes and probably a dog mark too, all together--since the dogs would go up into my desk chair and try to have a "drink" of whatever I had. Clean on the first try! My goodness.

Best Deals for BISSELL Spotbot Pet Handsfree Spot and Stain Cleaner with Deep

I purchased a Bissell Spot Bot last month and I have two cats and a puppy and we are using the spot bot 2-3 times a week. I love it and it really works, on set-in stains and surface stains. Yes, it leaves "crop circles" in your carpet, but if you use the hose after you clean the spot you can pick up more water and you can also brush the carpet so you can't see the circles anymore. If you are doing large areas or more than 4 spots you may get tired or adding and empty the water. For the 3 minute cycles you can do about 4-5 before you have to empty and add new water.

Honest reviews on BISSELL Spotbot Pet Handsfree Spot and Stain Cleaner with Deep

We have had a SpotBot for years and just replaced it with this newer model. Apparently this is the new, redesigned model of the previous model, which Amazon now says is not available. In some ways, we like the older model better The new "C" shaped formula container is harder to handle and holds less liquid. But this device is a real time and money saver. We have two Boxers and they are pretty well housetrained, but occasionally we have problems unexpected vomiting here, an overnight diarrhea there and you are looking at significant carpet cleaning bills, even if you go through the inconvenience of renting a machine at the grocery store. With SpotBot, the problem is solved in less than 5 minutes (10 if you have to mix up the formula). For "just happened" surface stains, the Bissell Pet Formula seems to work OK, but the 2-formula, OxyGen2-based mixture seems to work better for set in stains that somehow missed your detection for a day or two (on the back side of the dining room table, for example). Pick up any solids with paper towels (which we put in a Ziplock bag before we throw in the trash, to avoid odors) and put the SpotBot to use and like magic, your carpet generally looks like new. A stubborn stain might take a back-to-back second application. My wife loves this machine and would not be without it as long as we have dogs. When you need it, you really NEED it! One last tip: Shop around locally for the SpotBot. We found it on sale in a local big box store for half of the price being asked here!! Sorry, Amazon!

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for BISSELL Spotbot Pet Handsfree Spot and Stain Cleaner with Deep

I'd give this 4 or 5 stars. I was hesitant when I read some of the other reviews, but have been please so far.

I bought this because I have a toddler and a dog and until just recently a sick cat.

Based on some of the negative reviews that I read, I will address how I handled the things I took as warnings:

1It does make a clean spot if your carpet is kind of dirty. I live in a rental, so am not going to super clean their carpets, but I prefer light spots over puke spots.

2Clean up the chunks with a rag or paper towel before using the vacuum and 'spreading' it around. If you do the cleaning you can do by hand, it doesn't spread it around like another reviewer complained.

3After using, I run clean water through the hose and wash out the attachment if I used it. I also empty the dirty reservoir and rinse out several times after each use. It hasn't had any odor like another reviewer complained. I also found that the bottom that the dirty reservoir sits on can use a wipe to dry it and remove any dirty stinky water.

4I did find that the carpet was pretty wet after the automatic cycle, so I use the hose attachment to vacuum up the excess.

The tank does fill up after 5 or so basic cycles. The only thing that annoys me about it is that it keeps beeping after it finishes, forcing you to go push the off button. I guess this is good, because then I don't go to bed leaving the stinky water int he dirty reservoir.

Customer Ratings:

I got the LAN095HV (replaced by a newer model with almost the same model number)

These are good units. I will buy more.

Bought mine from AirConditioner.com a couple of years ago. It is cheap to run, 19 SEER I think.

This one require 220volt power.

Here is more info... http://s3.pexsupply.com/manuals/1273258597705/30013_PROD_FILE.pdf

I did the install and had the HVAC guy do the final hook-up and charge the system with freon.

Took him an hour or so.

One of the things about it I don't like is whenever you make an adjustment with the remote

it beeps and turns on a blue light on the unit up on the wall.

Not good when partner is asleep.

Looked thru the owners manual and online; anyone know how to turn off light and beep?

I bought this unit which has yet to be installed as I just found out it requires an outdoor unit to work. Buyer beware! This unit is designed to hook up to another outdoor unit -it is not self-contained. I did find the outdoor unit for around $900 from pexsupply, but the 9000 btu model has been discontinued so there are only a few left out there. Hope this review help others avoid my stupid mistake.

Honest reviews on LG Art Cool LMAN095HVT 9,000 Class BTU Multi-System Wall-Mounted

I've had this unit for three years and it is extremely efficient and works great until it doesn't. Both the inside and outside pcb electronic boards have been replaced and when they fail they are hard to get. LG has terrible customer service and parts support.

Oh, and LG doesn't offer a labor warranty so make sure you have a reputable installer who'll give you a decent warranty if you decide to buy an LG unit.

I didn't buy my unit from amazon.
