Love this coffee maker. Great that it makes 14 cups of delicious coffee. I don't use the scoop it came with, makes weak coffee. Be careful if you select the 1-4 cup brew and medium heat setting the coffee maker will boil your coffee. I suggest making at least 6 cups or transferring your coffee to a carafe immediately.

This is my 2nd time buying the Cuisinart Brew Central. The first one served me well but finally needed to be replaced. It makes the best coffee! So this time I went for the larger size14 cup. I love the automatic shut-off feature and the temperature selection for the warming plate.

After my much loved Melitta bit the dust, I was so depressed, I loved that machine. Since the model I had is no longer made, I had to find something new. Honestly, I didn't think I'd find one I like nearly as much as the Melitta.

I was a bit skeptical about this machine, but so far I've been more than pleased. The coffee is so good! And I love being able to adjust the keep warm time, as well as the temperature. It was easy to figure out the programming as well. I usually make 12-13 cups in the morning, and the last cup is as good as the first...which is saying something!

The only thing I don't care for is the clock. My old machine had a bright, easy to read clock, this one is smaller and harder to read. We won't mention that it sits next to the microwave which has a clock, as does my oven, so I'm not really suffering, I was just used to looking at my coffee maker, LOL. One feature that I'm going to love is the fact that when we have our power blips, I don't have to reset it. Our power flickers (a lot) and I was forever having to reset the coffee machine.

So far, this machine gets 5 stars from us.

Flames don't look too fake to make it unattractive. Really cool looking unit. Not sure what kind of heat it emits since it's not winter yet. I'm just using it to supplement the heat in the master bedroom anyway.

Would recommend it. Gives a darkened room some ambience.

I had a little heater fan from DeLonghi (DFH132), and it was fine but a little weak. I tried out a few heater fans from Honeywell (HFH5555 [worked, but blew a fuse] and HEH8001-U [worked but more fan than heater]) but ended up returning them.

This little heater puts out a good bit of heat. It's sitting behind me right now, in the same spot the heater fan used to occupy, and it puts out much more heat. It's also about twice as loud, but that doesn't bother me. The grille on the front gets hot, but I haven't left my hand on it long enough to see if it will burn me. I can make only so many sacrifices for Amazon reviews...

Quite happy with this item.

I gave this heater 4 stars. Let me explain....

First, to be realistic about my pros and cons, I know I wasn't getting a top of the line model being that this heater was under thirty bucks. I only needed this to provide a little warmth boost in my 1-year old sons 14' x 12' room.

Pros:

-Pushes a lot of heat for being so small This was surprising. I have to keep the temp turned only about 1/3 of the way up with the lowest fan setting or else my son's room turns into a sauna.

-Very nice size it's not tiny, but it fits nicely on my son's chest of drawers along with an alarm clock and piggy bank.

-1 fan, 2 heat options there is a fan option(no heat), a low and high heat setting. I use the low and imagine that the high setting would push qhite a bit of heat.

-Thermostat very nice option for what I use it for, once you get it right (see cons). I keep it up about 1/3 of the way and it keeps the room at a semi-constant temp.

-Stays cool to the touch on perimeter if you put your hand directly in front of the heating element, it's hot (duh), the rest of it stays nice and cool. This was a major concern for me since it stays in a childs room and space heaters having such a bad safety rep.

-Sturdy I originally had it on the floor and moved it up on a dresser. Neither place was I afraid that it would tip over on it's own

-Overheat switch It's an option, but I gladly haven't had to see if it works

Cons:

-Slightly noisier than expected I expected a little noise since it is a little heater but this small fans puts out quite a bit of noise. It's not loud enough to wake my son when it kicks on during the night, but it is loud enough where I had to relocate the baby monitor because it was driving my wife and me crazy.

-Thermostat this was a pro for having the option alone. The con is that it took me about a week to get it to maintain an even temp exactly where I wanted it. One time it would be too hot, I make an adjustment, then too cold, repeat about 15 times, and it's just right.

If I could give 4 1/2 stars I would. My pros are definite pros, but the cons may be a little petty given the product. I think for a few more dollars DeLonghi could put in a digital thermostat and maybe a slighly quieter fan.

Overall, I highly recommend this.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi DCH1030 Safeheat 1500W Basic Ceramic Heater - Gray/Black

My wife and I bought 2 of these to give our utility budget a break this winter.

This heater puts out alot of heat. The On/Off/Heat Settings switch, along with the Thermostat switch, feel very solid for a ceramic heater this inexpensive. It has a handle so it's easily transportable. Power light goes off when the unit is turned off (unlike others in this price range). Can be turned off (Some other similarly priced heaters need to have you pull the plug for the heater to go off). If it gets too hot, it will shut itself off (Safety feature). It's not whisper quiet but it is certainly not overly loud, as some others have complained. It also has an anti-freeze setting, if that is why you need it.

For the money, I can't see how you can get a better deal on a ceramic heater. I checked out all the similarly priced ceramic heaters here on Amazon, and quite frankly the combination of features, efficient ceramic heating element, solid design and inexpensive price make this a "no-brainer" as far as inexpensive ceramic heaters go. Get 2 and give the gift of ceramic heating efficiency this Christmas. OOPS, politically incorrect. TOO BAD!!!

I am living Iowa city, and the weather is getting colder and colder. So, I bought this small heater to get extra heat for my bedroom. It actually runs very loud, which is quite annoying for me. Moreover, I don't believe the "thermostat" works at all. The manual delusively says that the "thermostat" can be used to maintain the temperature. It is not true. I have to turn it on and off manually... However, it is cheap. For that reason, we probably should not have high expectation.

I bought this thing to replace my Mr. Coffee mug warmer. This Brookstone is basically useless as a warmer unless you are perhaps using a mug with an entirely FLAT bottom (which would allow more contact with the heating element.) I've yet to see such a coffee mug however, and I have looked a lot.

The Mr. Coffee I own is adequate in that it keeps the coffee warm, though not nearly as hot as I'd like. The Brookstone, with it's "high and low" heat settings doesn't improve things any, as even on the high setting it is not as hot as the Mr. Coffee model.

I purchased this to replace an identical warmer that lasted for several years in almost daily use in my office. My old one did not have automatic shut-off, and as a consequence was sometimes left on as long as over a weekend. I've titled this review "Better than expected" only because of the many negative reviews associated with the product. After using the new one for a couple of months, I can report that it performs exactly as advertised, and the automatic shutoff is a much appreciated added feature. I use several different styles of coffee mugs on this warmer, all with rimmed bottoms. Set on high, the warmer keeps my coffee HOT. Just barely cool enough to drink. And, it looks cool too.

Luckily, a friend gave me this Brookstone warmer (used) so I didn't waste any money on it. She gave it to me because she accidentally broke the $5 Target cup warmer I had. I thought "oooh, a Brookstone. looks fancy" but it's mostly useless!

My cheap Target warmer kept my drinks much, much hotter. This barely keeps them above room temperature. And I thought it was because it was used that maybe it had lost its effectiveness. I can see by the other reviews, that's not true.

I can't believe how much this costs new. What a waste.

I wish I could find the same Target model I had, but I've never seen them there again :(

Honest reviews on Brookstone Beverage Warmer

I purchased this expensive item (from an Amazon seller; fulfilled by Amazon) because it has an auto-shutoff feature. That worked, but the base of the warmer became so hot that if it had not been on a glass surface, it would surely have scorched the wood. I returned it as defective and hoped to hear back from the seller offering a replacement, but I did not. It makes me wonder if the product was actually working properly but designed very poorly.

This product is pretty much worthless. I first tried with a mug that had a raised ring bottom (i.e. not a lot of contact area). That one didn't work at all. I brought in a stoneware mug with a completely flat bottom still didn't keep the coffee hot. Used it on the high setting.

I contacted Brookstone directly. They completely blew me off. Would not do a thing for me.

Last winter, I owned a Lifesmart heater that was nearly $250.00. It was good, but did not have a timer that allowed the heater to turn on before I get out of bed or before I get home from work. Also, the heater I had a year ago was one of those bigger box heaters. On this site, some guy does a video review where he takes one of the bigger box heaters apart (to prove a point about the quartz), but what it shows is how much space is wasted inside the heater! There must be a thought process out there, where a bigger heater MUST deliver more and better heat. Not true, as this heater proves.

This heater is compact and delivers the same, if not more heat than the Lifesmart I owned last year. It is encased in hard plastic, but always remains cool to the touch. It easily and quickly adds the needed heat to my apartment allowing me to save on propane. Sure, as mentioned in another review, it beeps when you change the controls. But you know what else beeps? My microwave, my coffee maker, my washer and dryer...the list goes on and on.

I love that there are THREE power levels, with a super-saving feature that turns on when the thermostat reaches 68ºF. This heater DOES have the great timer that turns the heat on before I get up and before I get home. LOVE IT! Also, it's a perfectly compact size.

After going through SEVERAL Lasko heaters, and the uber-expensive Lifesmart that I bought (and returned) last year, this is by far the best heater I have ever owned for my purposes and would definitely buy another one just like it if I needed it. Also, shipping and delivery was extremely prompt and courteous from this seller (VM Innovations).

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Lifesmart Compact Power Plus 800 Square Foot Infrared Heater

In checking the reviews on a number of heaters I decided on this particular heater, and I think I made a good choice. There are several reasons I chose this heater. First it is compact. I need it for a small room, and I didn't want one of those large box heaters you see so much of. This is less than half the size of those larger units. Second, it uses quartz tubes. The nice thing about quartz tubes is that there is no odor. I have come across several heaters using ceramic elements (all by Lasko), and I would not recommend them as they all give off some kind of odor. I not sure if it is healthy to breath in this odor; sometimes the odor can be irritating to my throat and lungs. Thirdly, it heats my small office just fine. The room I use it in is about 12 x 10 feet.

I love all the features this unit comes with. It is thermostatically controlled, it has a remote control (which controls temperature, on/off, heat level, timer, and Celsius/Fahrenheit), a temperature readout, low heat (1000 watts), high heat (1500 watts), eco heat (sets temp at 68 degrees and uses 500 watts), and buttons that duplicate the remote. The unit retains the temperature and mode (high/low/eco setting) when turning the unit off. This is nice because I can just turn the unit on with the remote and it heats with the previous settings that I had input. The unit has a cool down period after you turn it off which extracts any remaining heat, or maybe it's a safety feature to cool the unit down. Some people had complained about this, but I don't see it as a problem. The outside of the unit always remains cool to the touch.

Some people have complained about the unit not heating their area. For the size room I have (12 x 10) it works just fine. I think the best use for heaters like this is to take the chill out of the room and not as a source of primary heat. Often I have it on for a short period of time, and then I shut it off because it is warm enough in the room. With all heater advertisements, you need to take the maximum heated room size specification with a grain of salt. There are many factors that determine if a given heater will provide sufficient heat for an area. For example, are there any openings into other rooms, is a stairway present in the room where the heat can rise, how many windows are in the area, are there any outside walls, how well insulated are the walls, how cold is it outside, etc. For a small unit like this, it should adequately heat an area of about 300 square feet; again, it depends.

Everything said, I like this heater enough that I bought another one for my bedroom.

After 30 days. This is a great hammock...seems small at first but it very comfortable holds my wife and I at the same time. We've literally fallen asleep for a couple hours while listing to music as the dusk turns to night. Oatmeal color hides stains. Duracord is soft to the touch and dries quickly after rain. Haven't had critter issues yet. Weaving looks nice and appears durable. Stretch is adequate without becoming a problem. Steel and wood pieces are nicely finished...overall a terrific and relaxing addition to our yard.

Absolutelty top-notch. I left it out in rain, shine and fog for 6 months now. Don't have the energy to get it inside each time it rains (and oh boy, did it rain this summer in Dallas!). Each time sun shines back, my hammock is as great-feeling, as shiny and as taut as new. This weekend I had a party in my backyard, and my guests turned on the rough heat a little bit they were even using it as a swing, three adults at a time. I was a little concerned, but at the end it was as if nothing happened. Kind of the feeling you get after you complete your first cross-state long drive with your Honda or Toyota you are concerned whether your car is OK, but that trip was not even as much as a dent on its mind-boggling robust engineering. Pawleys rocks!

Mine and my wife's inexperience at the beginning resulted in a very scarily tangled up knot all the hammock's ropes seemed to be tied to evry other piece of rope and passing through every other hole. But we slept on ot for a night, and gave it another shot next day. An intricate amount of mathematical calculations saved the day, and the hammock was straight again. It was us to blame in the first place be careful to handle the hammock the right way. While rolling up, use the wood bars at the ends as anchor. Do not try fancy styles or get inattentive while rolling it up or down.

Having had Pawleys Island Hammocks before, I was glad to see the addition of the Dura Cord product line. I was a little apprehensive about the "feel" of the new material, but it is actually nicer than the old cotton one, and looks beautiful. Average lifetime of the cotton was about 4 years for us when left out all the time, so we will see about this one, but I trust the brand, so assume it will be better.

A great hammock! The antique brown color is perfect because it doesn't show dirt or marks as easilly as a white hammock would. It's a very comfortable hammock and fits very well on a hammock stand.

I received a Pawley's Island hammock as a gift in July, 2009 (birthday). It was the new DuraCord version. It was comfortable but the rope deteriorated and broke by August of 2010, just one month past the one year warranty, and was not in a place where it could be retied. My previous hammocks made from the traditional cotton rope have lasted 4-6 years on average. I think they have some work to do on the duraCord product!

Cheap SEI Narita Media Console with Electric Fireplace

SEI Narita Media Console with Electric Fireplace, Espresso
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars
List Price: $862.50
Sale Price: $391.99
Today's Bonus: 55% Off

First off, I would like to point out that I shopped both online and in stores for an electric fireplace for months. When I finally decided on this one, I still thought hard about it for weeks before I actually placed my order. This is the first time that I have ever ordered furniture online and I was very nervous about not seeing the product before making my purchase, but the other reviews had me convinced and the price was unbeatable anywhere else I looked (including Big Lots). So I ordered it, and I have had it three months now.

Shipping:

My new media console and fireplace arrived at my house (in Indiana) only a few days after I placed my order. It arrived in two very large, very heavy packages. One package contained the materials for the console itself and the other, which had "FRAGILE" written in large letters across it was the electric fireplace. There are many different pieces to the cabinet itself, so I recommend doing what I did which was opening the box somewhere with plenty of room, and laying out each piece to ensure that everything had been included (and to ensure that nothing had been damaged). Everything that was supposed to be included was there and intact.

Assembly:

Obviously, the console itself has to be assembled. The assembly wasn't difficult (as I am a 25 year old woman who did it by myself), but it is time consuming, taking about three hours to complete (although I took my time). The hardware didn't seem cheap to me and every major piece is fit with several wood dowels to help guide the pieces together perfectly. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER AND TAKING YOUR TIME!!! The pieces are designed to go together in a very specific order and once they have been locked together, it is almost impossible to take them apart again. This means that if you forget a step, you could be in big trouble. The instructions aren't super descriptive so read a couple of times to make sure you understand what you are doing. There is an optional support piece that is supposed to go in the middle of the shelf to help prevent the top piece from bowing if you have a somewhat heavy tv. I would recommend putting it in during assembly if you have a tv any larger than about 36 inches as I have already seen one review where the person didn't use the support piece, and his did bow under the weight of his tv. Once it was completed, I was however pleasantly surprised by how sturdy the unit was once it was constructed.

Product Review:

I did want to mention that the firebox itself isn't as deep as the cabinet is. This makes for a nice place in the back of the unit to put your power strip for all of your electronics so that you can place the cabinet flush against the wall without leaving an unsightly gap between the unit and the wall. It was a pleasant surprise. As I mentioned before, most of the main pieces of the unit are real stained wood and those that are not are still stained well to match the real wood pieces. Occasionally I go over the entertainment stand with wood polish, which brings out the nice espresso color in the wood. The unit itself is a beautiful, uniform color and is very sturdy considering that it was assembled. I love the cabinet space and width of the unit.

If you want a fireplace that looks like real fire, get a real fireplace. I spent a lot of time looking at these when I was shopping around and contrary to a couple of the reviews, I think the fire looks better than many of the electric fireplaces that I have seen (including several nice hotels that I have stayed at). I'm sure that they do make more realistic electric fireplaces, but you won't find any around this price, I've looked. The fire consists of varying shades of yellow and orange, but to me, the movement of the flames is about as as realistic as any I've seen. The brightness of the logs can be adjusted as well as the brightness/level of the fire, which is nice when you want the fire to seem low or when you are trying to watch a movie on the tv and you don't want the brightness of the fireplace to be distracting. I have a fairly small living room, so I can feel the heat from the heater on the couch when it is at medium setting, but I could see where it probably wouldn't heat a larger room by itself. In my case however, the space heater in the unit adds a nice warmth to the room (sometimes too warm). The remote control allows you to change the brightness of the logs and the fire, and to turn the heater off or on, but the thermostat for the heater must be adjusted on the firebox itself.

After three months of having this product, I must say that I am in love with it. With all of the features, I really feel like I got lots of "bang for the buck". It adds a very welcoming glow and warmth to my living room and I get compliments on it every time I have company. For the price, definitely five stars.

I really like this piece. The unit is very solid and a beautiful finish on the wood. The instructions were very good and was easy to assemble without a hitch. I love the glass doors on cabinet to keep video games, movies and Wii dust free! BTW my cable modem and router fit nicely laying flat on open shelf with DVR

The only con I have is the flame is only amber. I could not really tell it was amber only in the picture. Come on guys...couldn't you have put a little red in there to mix up the colors?! It is obvious it is not a real flame...which is what I want...but the amber only color makes it a little less comfy when lit.

With the Amazon price with free shipping I saved over $150 over Target and Walmart online plus I got Amazon free shipping!

If you have seen fireboxes in stores and thought they looked good, dont buy this one. The firebox is no where near what you will see in stores. This is not a good Dimplex type firebox that you might get otherwise. It looks terrible. The logs look bad, doesnt resemble a fire much at all, you dont see flames, just weird glowing light. The dimplex insert is soo much nicer and this is not that. The furniture part is nice, but the firebox is horrible. Also the motor in the firebox makes a loud annoying sound and causes vibrations in the unit. Not Recommended.

Honest reviews on SEI Narita Media Console with Electric Fireplace

The console arrived in two boxes. One (console)weighing in at 98lbs., and the second (fire box) weighing in at 38lbs. The console arrived completely in pieces with all screws and parts necessary to put it together. The instructions I would not rate for a beginner as they are not well displayed. It took six hours to put the console together but everything was there and the wood was not fiber board stuff you commonly find at IKEA. Once put together it is a very solid piece of furniture, but I was concerned when I saw the IKEA type screws to hold certain sections of the wood together. The firebox is all one piece and slides in to the finished assembled console with a wood block and screws to keep it in place. I found this to still keep the firebox loose and added two small wood screws up against the back of the firebox to help keep it more snug. Once it was all setup with my television components I plugged in the fireplace and turned it on. The heat unit works great and will nicely supplement the heat in the winter for this one bedroom apartment in Portland, Oregon. The flame and log functions all work great although I was disappointed that the logs didn't better resemble more red coals burning around the logs with instead being the same colors as the flame (yellow/orange). It was not worth taking the whole thing apart to send it back, but a better close-up picture of the flame and logs would be great for future purchasers. Overall I am pleased with the size and dimensions of this console/fireplace. However, next time I pay this kind of price for something like this I will buy one assembled and working before I make the purchase. I give this product a four star rating because of the wood, glass in the doors, and the solid construction after it was assembled.

We received this yesterday and put it together in a few hours. I expected the quality to be a bit better for the price, but all the same it looks great. We had looked at the Espresso model but opted for this lighter color so glad we did. Some reviewers on the espresso model stated that they were unhappy with the flame because there wasn't enough color variation, but we are very happy with it. We have wanted an electric fireplace for a long time, since we can't have the real thing. This would probably warm up our bedroom if it were in that room with the door closed, but we have this in our living room near a stairway and kitchen so we didn't notice a big difference in the overall warmth of the room. However, we have only had it for one day. Standing in front of it with the heat on high, it definitely puts out good heat though so we'll see after extended use how that goes. Would definitely recommend

I'm skeptical by nature, so if something actually delivers, as advertised, I'm quite pleased. That's what has happened with this order. My other option was to pay to ship the Gen4 to the nearest repair depot, pay for bulb replacement and have it shipped back. I got 2 years of heat on the original bulbs, which I should apparently be grateful for. I looked up how to replace the burnt out bulb online, followed the instructions and, voila, it worked like new!

This item works well. However do not try to compare it to Electrical blankets you are used to using at home. It takes a while to heat up the mattress, and I have found it takes far too long for my mattress to cool back down after I turn it down, or off. The coldest I have used it so far is in 45 degree conditions, and I left it on a setting of one and used 1 fairly thick blanket over a very thin blanket, over the sheet. Mostly I use it to preheat the bed then turn it off, or to it's lowest setting.

I have it under a comforter under my bedsheet and cannot feel it, or the wires, or the safety pins you must use to pin it to the mattress. But there is no doubt it is on when you crawl into a toasty bed. Turn it on at least 30 minutes beforehand.

The claimed 4 amp draw and the 5 amp fuse must be applicable only to the single model. I have the twin and it draws 6.2 amps. It cycles on and off frequently but silently, and the temperature dial is also the thermostat, so keeping it outside the covers will allow it to run more often( warm the mattress more) than if is is under the covers.

The dial is numbered 1 through 7. It actually turns on at well below one on the dial. The Ciggy plug is one of the best designs out there. It fits snugly and does not warm up significantly. My Laptop can draw similar amperage through a ciggy plug, and it has partially melted the supplied ciggy plug.

In my experience it will use a minimum of 1.5 amp hours per hour on the lowest setting. Keep in mind that alternator does okay at replenishing a battery that is below 80%, but will take forever to bring it from 80% to 100%. Using this product night after night without adequate driving or other charging source in between will abuse your battery, and eventually leave you needing a jumpstart, and after a few jumpstarts, a new battery. Do not believe that your 140 amp HD alternator can replenish a battery in under an hour. Batteries cannot accept those currents for very long(under a minute), if at all, and the OEM wiring cannot transmit it even if the alternator could produce it in the engine compartment, rather than a Laboratory

Also a Marine/ dual purpose battery should be used as opposed to a starting battery. Starting batteries cannot handle deeper discharges and will self destruct prematurely. True Deep Cycle batteries are best for powering this heating pad, but 12 volt true deep cycle batteries are not that easy to find, and about 30% more expensive than regular starting or Marine batteries.

My son drives semi truck over the road. We bought him this item last Christmas. He is still thanking us for this item. He says that it has been the best gift we ever bought him. Highly recommend for anyone that spends time in cold weather!! 12volt and wasn't hard on the battery.

We spend 6 months of the year on our boat. Getting into bed at night we noticed that the bedding was more humid than we liked, not damp, just more moisture than we like. We also had occasional mildew on the walls. Somewhat skeptically, I ordered the heated mattress pad to try it out and since it did plug into 12v.

Wow! What a difference getting into bed at night. The bunk is nice and comfy and all traces of moisture in the bedding is gone and as a plus, we have not seen the reappearance of mildew on the walls. So far we haven't seen the need to leave it on all night but we could with the modest current draw. This is one great product to have on a boat! It's my wife's favorite addition over the last 12 months.

Honest reviews on Twin, Heated Mattress Pad by Electrowarmth, Non-Fitted, Size 36 x

The mattress pad was bought as gift for someone sick and when finally opened to use, it wasn't new but old and stained and ugly. Because a gift, the 30d return passed, and when vendor was notified, they asked for it to be returned, which I did promptly. After receiving the return she said it had been too long and a refund or exchange could not be honored. So I bought a gift that was embarrassingly used and stained when opened, then paid for the return to vendor and lost not only the original purchase cost but the return shipping too. So, was it sent out used to someone else? Bad experience all around. Worst response ever had with internet order.

just turn it on and cover it up for 30 min before use. Reduce to minimum when the engine is off. It will eat up your battery in 3 hours anyway. I use it in my semi truck (it has 4 big sections of batteries).

This compact heater seemed ok for the first couple days then it started tripping the breaker. Not sure if defective but the company was really great about returning it. Also it didn't put out as much heat as I thought it would for my 14x 30'room.

The manufacturer lists this space heater as having a `whisper quiet operation' and `fan-forced for wide heat dispersion'. My experience has been that neither of these claims is true. My most important need is to find a quiet heater. It was quiet for the first few days but then it began to make a loud click when it turns on in the middle of the night, and unfortunately it wakes me up each time. It also takes quite a while to heat up my bedroom that has a size much smaller than a larger den or living room. In fairness, it does eventually reach the desired temperature however. Additionally, when I press some of the buttons on my TV remote, the heater also responds and reduces the desired temperature by 1 degree for each time pressed. This can be a problem when watching TV in the bedroom. I seldom give a severely poor rating to any product, but this time I must rate this one with only 1 star. Not only does it miss meeting my most important needs, it advertised that it DOES meet those needs. For that reason it receives the lowest possible rating. Note that I did return the heater and am now researching on Amazon for a replacement that is quiet and effective. I implore you to please learn from my mistake and do not purchase this space heater.

I purchased this heater in February 2012. It no longer works! I can't get my money back and there is no way to get it fixed. We have cleaned the filter as suggested and nothing. The thermostat never worked at all, but it did heat the room sufficient so we let it go. Now it won't do anything! I am so disappointed!!! Here's another thing we figured out. The remote frequency is on the same as our flat screen TV. It messed our TV volume up and made the sound go out over and over. I hate to tell this, but we sent back 2 different televisions thinking they were faulty because of this heater. I would love to have another(different brand of course) heater but were told by Amazon we weren't entitled to anything after 30 days. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!

After using a smelly, non-ventilated gas firfeplace for years, I decided to give these a try. I bought 2, since at 1000 watts it is not going to heat our downstairs (kitchen/dining/living room)very fast, but after a week of use I am very pleased. Their mobility allows me to control the heating well (can bring both into the living room if my 2 small children are there to keep that very warm). Usually 3-4 hours of use of both in separate rooms(and closed windows)is enough to take the chill off. Very quiet, no smell and easy to move. I probably should have bought at least one of the 1500 watt units, but no problems at all with these units so far. Will likely get a 1500 watt unit soon.

Second year using these heaters. Excellent in small rooms up to 150 sq ft. I don't use the remotes so can't comment on them. Lightweight and easy to move around. The timer is useful and auto shut off works well if it is tipped. Would buy again.

In the third year and still going strong. Updated to 5 stars

I have had this product for a few months and find it gives out adequate heat for my use. I am a diabetic and my feet are always cold. I keep this directed at my feet when I sit at my computer desk. It warms my feet quickly and I then keep them comfortably warm by periodically turning the heat on as needed. I also sometimes place it on my desk for cooling off when I am too warm. I use the cool fan level for this and it is really great to keep me comfortable when I don't want to use my air conditioner. I really like this versatile product.

This is a great heater for a small room. I have bought other small heaters and returned them because they were so noisy. This one is really quiet.

I 1st purchased this product at Home Depot 1 year ago. It works great! I used it alot. I'm the kind of person that needs soft heat thats not harsh coming out of the heater because my body is sensitive to harsh blowing heat. This heater delivers. I purchased 2 from amazon.

Honest reviews on OceanAire HFQ15A Warmwave Fan Heater

I purchased this when it was on sale through a friend that had PRIME. It was selling for only $12.97 and I thought for that price, how can I go wrong? Let me tell you, so far...so good. This thing is small and even on the lowest setting it has some pretty good heat coming out of it. It's also pretty quiet.

Of course, I've got it in my PC room which faces the North. No telling how it will work once it gets even colder, but like I said, for now it outputs plenty of heat.

I recommend this one highly, especially for the price.

As I installed 2 units on my boat an when it gets to the mid 80's the units shut down for protection I am sure. I have tried to use insulated blinds to cut down the direct sun and may try another idea or 2 to make them finish the season. I think this environment is to harsh for this type of air conditioner but have other uses at the main house. Other than that when the temps are lower they work very well. I am hopeful tech service may offer a idea to try

Don't unpack this piece of junk; you will never be able to repackage it for return. NOT designed for slider windows--the spats will NOT hold air exhaust hose. Ill conceived; poorly built; and badly planned and tested.

Reviews of DeLonghi Solaris Oil-Filled Radiator with Timer

DeLonghi Solaris Oil-Filled Radiator with Timer
Customer Ratings: 2 stars

I received this heater as a replacement of another Delonghi heater which was higher-performing with more heat output in watts. This is how Delonghi treats you with its cocky 1-year limited warranty. You might as well get an inferior, cheaper product as Delonghi mistreats its customers to do itself a favor. The service location to deliver the broken heater was far, and Delonghi took more than a month to provide me with this cheaper heater.

Besides, both my original heater and the replacement (this heater that the review is about) broke in less than a year. I had to change through 3 heaters in less than a year due to Delonghi's rock bottom product quality. Additionally, the heater makes a noise when in operation that sounds like beating its metal with a hard object. It can be disturbing depending on the person.

Do NOT buy from Delonghi to bear this poor product quality and customer service.

This unit clicks constantly. I bought this for a baby's room where I need quiet, even, safe heat. You turn it on and the noise starts as the element heats up... click... click... click... click... Baby then turns around, starts to get restless, and the screaming could start at any minute.

I've used cheap oil filled heaters in the past and they did not have this problem. When I pay a premium for a brand name and supposedly quality design, I expect better than what DeLonghi has provided here. It should not take an engineering genius to realize that heat causes metal to expand and take it into account when designing the product.

Disappointing. Very disappointing.

UPDATE:

And then it broke. Slightly more than one year after purchase this model failed when the GFCI plug melted. So down from a 2 star rating to a 1 star.

I'd give this zero stars if I could. We had this for a little over a month. It worked great at first. It heated our cold kitchen quickly and kept the tempature steady. Then one day, it stopped working. The light would not come on and there's no reason why it wouldn't work. The red button on the plug was pushed in many times and it still would not work. The manual does not give any instruction as to how to fix it except deal with their technicans. There's no sense in dealing with the company based on the other reviews. At least spring is coming, so we'll find a better heater next year.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi Solaris Oil-Filled Radiator with Timer

Purchased about 2 months ago. It still working pretty good, but since yesterday, I hear grinding noise coming from Timer. I am sensitive sleeper and I can't get descent sleep because of it. Constant "Grrrr" like bad motor sound. I will have to return this and maybe get one with Electronic timer instead.

One more thing. When I turn on both heat setting (Highest), I hear bubbling(boiling) sound so I keep it in Medium and it's working fine.

I purchased this unit several years ago and was very happy with it for 1 and ½ seasons then it began making an intermittent clicking noise, then the noise became continuous. The noise is loud enough that I have to keep the door to the adjoining bath closed in order to sleep. I have not found any replacement parts or disassembly instructions.

This is a shame since the low-profile, relatively small size, selectable wattage, steady heat and timer functions are virtually unique. I held on to the unit and run in areas of the house or garage where noise isn't a distraction and hoped that DeLonghi (or some other manufacture) would market an updated version of this heater without the noise problem. I've not seen one in the three years since this unit began making noise.

In closing this is a wonderful heater until or unless it begins to make the clicking sound seen in numerous other online reviews. I would not buy another of these units or similar DeLohghi heaters with the multi-pin timer.

As a side note I have owned a DeLonghi coffee maker and espresso machine and had quality problems with these units as well. It appears to me that this company has good product design and marketing but poor assembly, quality control and customer service. As attractive as several of their products are I have chosen to avoid items marketed by this company.
