I brought this heater home, plugged it in, and it ran on the high setting for about 5 minutes, constantly switching between low and high. Then, it shut off, and it would not turn back on. I unplugged it and let it cool for an hour or so, and ran it on the low setting this time. It stayed on, but was constantly switching on and off, and did not give off enough heat to heat a bathroom, much less a large room. I returned the heater and got another just like it. This one ran slightly better, but again shut off after 5-10 minutes and would not power back up. This thing is of no value. You'd have more success heating a room with your computer.

Only things I wish it has a 3-prong plug with GFCI safety built-in, better sensor, and air filter. Also, I am not sure how good it is as a heater: the air it blows out doesn't seem to be hot enough to heat up a 20x20 room, at least not quick enough. I guess three Envi Heaters of 475 watts or four Econo-Heater running simultaneously would do a better job than just one of this 1500 watt heater. We'll see.

This heater will heat up a room in a fair amount of time and keep it warm even if you have it on the lowest setting. This heater does not get hot or anything if you use it although the cord may get hot after a while.

I got this heater half price for $35 at Target a few days ago and yesterday it broke on me. I only used it for a brief amount of time each day just to heat up the room for approximately 3 days and it broke. The power indicator would light up but the control panel would not work no matter how I pushed it. It would occasionally come on and off flickering on and off. Basically I think the control panel area is defective so I will be bringing it back and getting a better model.

Overall: Good price, nice heat, bad build quality. Sort of loud on high setting.

Honest reviews on Honeywell EnergySmart Thermawave Ceramic Heater, HZ-860

Bought this heater back in Dec. (from another store) to heat up a fairly large living room. The unit was a little smaller than I thought in would be once I took it out of the box, but I still thought it might do the job. I like the basic design of the unit with the curve blower at the top and it does blow a fair amount of hot air. However, I didn't feel that the air that was blowing out of it was all that hot. I have a smaller "personal" unit that seems a lot hotter. So, unfortunetly it didn't really heat the room up. I could only get the room temp to increase by 2-4 degrees no matter how long the unit was on for. It worked better as a personal heater in the room, but that's not what I bought it for. I do feel that this unit would work better in a smaller room like a bedroom, especially when you close the room up. You could have a nice toasty room in about an hour. The fan isn't to loud but it might be a little more noticable in a smaller room.

Bottom line, it's a great unit but it didn't really meet my needs in this case. Although it didn't really work for me, I think it would work great in a smaller enclosed area. I ended up returning the unit and then purchased the Optimus H-5300. Although this is a Quartz heater with no fan, it's a bigger unit and is by far, hotter. It takes a little longer to heat up the room (not much), but I can increase the room temp by 4-8 degrees.

rustrating device. It flips on and off, on and off like the safety is enacting. May be a fault with the manufacturing of it, but when we are talking about a space HEATER, faulty wiring concern #1 for me. Will be returning.

I have this heater in my den which has windows across two sides. I have the heater set at the low setting and adds that little bit of extra heat for comfort. This is also saving on our gas heating bill.

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.

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.

Customer Ratings:

This heater is a lot cheaper than most other similiar models that are out there on the market. It works really well. It's quiet and it heats two rooms of my house very easily. I don't sleep with it on, but I wouldn't do that with any other electric heater. This one has a timer, though, which is good whenever I'm drowsy.

I have no complaints with this item. I purchased it at Wal-mart and not on Amazon, though. I simply wanted to avoid the shipping costs, etc. I priced it at Lowe's and it was ridiculously overpriced! The one listed here on Amazon is about $10 cheaper than mine, but I'm sure the shipping will more than make up for it.

Again, great heater! It does exactly as advertised! You won't be disappointed with it. Don't expect it to heat an entire home, but two or more adjacent rooms is fairly easy work for it, and I'm sure your indoor pets will have no complaints snuggling near it. It's safe to touch, too. The wheels on bottom of it make it easy to reposition without lifting.

I had doubted this heater when it first came. I thought there is no way.. BUT This little heater heats my kitchenliving roomand hallwayI don't know how big it is sq ft wise but I know its not small... in all fairness.. I also made sure of my windows doors and everything was perfectly sealed... It might take a little while to heat all of this if its real real cold... but I am not complaining as it does manage to keep all of this space warm.. No other heater could do it... this one did.. thats what matters.. mine actually broke within a week of having it but it only took an e-mail and they are sending me a new one AND a return label to send back the one that broke.. which means I don't pay the shipping for the broken heater AND They sent it as soon as they knew of the issue NOT when they received the broken heater... this seller is absolutely the best to deal with... A++++

I purchased this heater from this company and after using it three or four times, the cord and plug got extremely hot , so hot I had to unplug it for I was afraid of fire. I sent the company an e-mail and they replied that they

would get back to me. I then called after a week the number in the instructions, they said I had to call the one

that sold it to me. I would not recommend this product, it would be better to purchase it from a store where you

As a supplemental heat source, I find this to be everything that I expected, and a touch more. The ability to set the timer for the heater to come on in a determined number of hours, or to have the heater run until a chosen pre-set shut off time makes this heater very convenient. The unique ECO mode, and other mode choices are also extremely helpful. The level of noise is less than a whisper, and, in short, I love it.

Suncourt HC300 Heating & Air Conditioning Booster Fan Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Based on the other reviews, it sounds as though the EQ2 works for some people and doesn't for others depending on their individual room and HVAC configurations. I have an upstairs room with a vaulted ceiling that is 10 degrees Fahrenheit hotter or colder than the rest of the house. The room is more than 200 sq. ft., has only one vent, and is the farthest from the blower. I've had my EQ2 now for 3 years and it is still working fine. The EQ2 brings the temperature difference down to about 4 degrees, which is livable. I tried out the AirFlow Breeze that has 2 DC fans in it but it didn't work as well as the EQ2.

Like everyone else I have a room that doesn't get the benefit of enough heat. Is is fed by a side duct off the main furnace duct really a bad design because the heat on its way up three flights races past this duct and even a scoop doesn't cure the 5 degree deficit. I put this fan over one of the two outlets for this side duct, AND BLOCKED THE OTHER to prevent the fan from just pulling air from the other vent. It now has to pull from the furnace and the 5 degree difference disappeared. It is also on a thermostatic control.

Works as advertised. My family recently moved into a 2-story colonial, and the airflow coming out of the vents in the master bedroom is a little weak, making it warmer than the rest of the bedrooms on the top floor. I could turn down the thermostat, but that would freeze out the rest of the house. The Suncourt (HC500) and Airflow Breeze boosted registers caught my eye, but I wanted a quick solution (i.e. no order-and-wait) and the local Home Depot had the HC300 in stock.

What can I say, but "it works". Without the HC300, the airflow (floor vents shooting upward) reached a height of 3 ft (based on holding my hand above the vent), and with the booster, it reached a perceptible height of 5 feet. With a single booster over 1 of our 2 vents, the master bedroom was noticeably cooler. In fact it worked so well that I ordered two in-vent boosters (HC500) so that I have one for each duct. The weather has cooled down, so I'm unable to compared those to the HC300, except that they are quieter.

As far as noise goes, the HC300 is not silent, but it is far quieter than a Marpac white noise machine set to the lowest setting (we use that in our baby's room). Actually, for use in a bedroom, I find the low level of white noise kinda soothing. As an added bonus, the fan in the booster doesn't turn off until the air temperature from the ductwork reaches a preset temperature. That means that after the AC (or heat) has turned off, the booster is still scavenging the remaining cool (or warm during the winter) air from the ductwork.

This is a great solution if your airflow to a room is weak, but I can imagine some circumstances (strong airflow, but warm air) where boosting the airflow won't help or you'll have a ceiling effect. Yes, you ideally would want to call in a professional to rebalance the ductwork, but in many instances it would be cost prohibitive (i.e. ripping up flooring to get to the ductwork).

I give it a 4 out of 5, with 1 point deducted for the (albeit low) noise level.

Honest reviews on Suncourt HC300 Heating & Air Conditioning Booster Fan

Yep, I gotta agree with the other reviewers that this is a waste of money. Great concept, poorly executed. It does turn on and off automatically, but that's it's only good point.

I have an upstairs bedroom that gets about 5-6 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. Warmer even than the adjacent bedroom. Put one of these over the vent, checked the temperature all day, and there was no difference. I think most computer fans are probably quieter and blow more air. All this seems to do is churn the air around a bit.

While I'm not a mechanical engineer, I think this product could have been designed better, without adding cost, and actually might have worked.

Save your money. If you have a vent that's not vlowing much air, try removing the grill. The grill restricts the airflow and removing it might be enough to help.

I bought two register boosters several years ago and one of the two recently stopped working; could not be repaired by my engineer husband. No longer carried at local store so I ordered two online. We use them on the second floor of our home to boost heat in the winter and A/C in the summer and they work very well. Hope neither of the new ones ordered via Amazon fail!

First of all, ignore the one star review. If you can't take time to research what you intend to buy, then you deserve to be dissapointed.

I installed this heater along with a basic honeywell thermostat in my bedroom. I live in an old home, so heating is a pain. Being only 1000 watts, it doesn't heat super fast, but I can definitively say that it can get and maintain a much more comfortable room temp than the fan forced heater it replaced. Being that it is mounted onto the wall, it is completely out of the way.

The unit seems well made and so far I haven't had any issues with it. Even when the thermostat turns it on full heat, it is silent And makes no creaking sounds. The quiet even heat is absolute bliss when I lay down to rest for the night. I had gotten use to fan heaters so much that now it is almost eerie how quiet the room is.

With my experience having this heater, im going to be buying more of their heaters.

Honest reviews on Cadet Manufacturing 05534 120-Volt White Baseboard Hardwire

This 'Cadet' stuff is a misrepresented farce. It should be in a building supply online store and not in home products. People are looking here in 'amazon' for a unit with a thermostat that they can plug into a wall socket and get heat not for a partially assembled non-functioning unit that will need a thermostat and special tools and skill to hopefully work. It doesn't plug into a wall socket, you need to connect 'supply wires' to it! just look at what is required to get a 'Cadet' baseboard heater to work at . In the video it states that if you are not able to assemble this yourself, you should get a licensed electrician to do it. Oh yes, at $50/hr! the electrician would wind up costing more than the unit! I am used to buying something that states what you are getting, this unit description states what you are NOT getting with an ambiguous 'no' that could be mistaken for 'number'. This company apparently floods an online store with partially assembled non-functioning items that can be listed at a lower price and overshadow the few really good working items. I sent the 'heater' and 'thermostat' back for a refund and bought a somewhat higher priced functioning unit that came with a thermostat and wall socket power cord and gave me good heat right away.

Positive:

+ The heater will probably work well for at least a month.

+ It oscillates well.

+ The auto-off tip alert does work, but is very sensitive. If it is bumped, the lights in the room will flicker due to the power fluctuation until it situates. This is as opposed to my previous heater (a Holmes) that just shut it self off until I turned it on again.

Negative:

As another reviewer mentioned, this heater has a "child proof cap" style control knob. After approx. two months of gentle handling (because it was obvious that the heater was made with terribly cheap parts) I could no longer turn the heater off because the threads on the cap had worn off. In the end I had to unplug it to turn it off and stop using it.

After two weeks the fan blade started to make squealing sounds at random times. By the time the control knob broke, it had become quite loud. I never shook, dropped, hit or ever moved the heater. It was only set to oscillate for about one minute when it first arrived. It was another sign that this heater is cheaply made.

Honest reviews on Honeywell HZ2300 Honeywell Heater

We have one tiny bathroom without a heater. My old Holmes, which worked so well, finally died. I bought this Honeywell to replace the Holmes, and discarded the packaging or it would have been returned.

First, the Settings knob is the push-and-turn type, and when you press on it and turn it, it just keeps going around and around, Second, even if you turn the heat setting (the second knob) all the way up, the heater turns off after about three second (I actually timed it). Then, if you're lucky, five or ten minutes later, you'll get another brief blast of heat. Third, for the fan function to work, the room has to be as warm as the heater setting, which doesn't make any sense at all. Fourth, the whole unit oscillates, sending blasts of heat around in an arc.

I've been buying space heaters for that small bathroom for the twenty years I've been in this house, and the six dollar Rite-Aid heater I bought in a pinch two years ago worked better than this thing.

Choose a different heater!

ELECTRIC WALL MOUNT FIREPLACE W/REMOTE 650/1350 WATT--DIGITAL Review

Customer Ratings:

The item as described does not translate to the actual use and application for heating an area or space in proximity to the unit. With the inspection of the actual unit, it was quickly determined that the items contains very serious design flaws, thus rendering the heater defective. The unit is aesthetically very nice. However, the heater contains only 1 vent, located at the top of the unit. There are no vents on the side or bottom, which prevents actual heating of the area surrounding the wall space. Upon installation, the heat eminates to the ceiling (burning the area above the vent), and not outward. This is the primary defect! The heat does not project outward to the space near the unit, rather the ceiling above. This unit is ineffective for heating a space, and only serves as picturesque for a wall space. Additionally, this seller (Shadow Ridge Trading Company), should be removed from Amazon's list of approved vendors. The representative of this company is very rude, unprofessional, and very inappropriate. Moreover, the representative for this company, challenged my assertion that the unit is defective, and threatened to withhold my refund. This was insulting! I have never experienced this level of challenge with all my purchases through Amazon, regardless if Amazon was the "direct" seller or not. The unit as advertised does not correspond in any way to the actual use of the heater. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this feedback.

I did what one blogger said about the use of this product. I sealed my fireplace that was taking a lot of place in my living room. I make sure of a very good insolation from the heat, the cold and the noise from upstair neighbors. II had it all of it completely covered with dry wall, painted like the rest of it and now I have some heat when I want it. This is not very strong but it will do for the Florida weather. So far it work like a chrm and I am very please with it. And it look nice on my wall . Thank you Amazon for having such fine product.
