This product is easy to setup out of the box, required little assembly and worked as advertised. This is my first experience with a Propane forced air heater (I have other kerosene space heaters) and I was pleased with the lack of smell while running but it doesn't seem as efficient as the kerosene heater of the same BTU output rating. Overall for the price I feel it was a good choice.

I am a store vendor. When I go in to service my accounts, I always use a shopping cart. Many times I am in these accounts for hours. Water bottles and closed top beverages are easy enough to just place in the cart with out spilling, but me...I like my large coffee. That top doesn't close. I have been looking for a cup holder that you dont have to screw on (like one for a stroller). I found this one. It is a simple design...but it works for me and I LOVE IT!! It wont hold thinner items like a water bottle or a soda can...so if you are looking for something like that, this will not work.

I've only used it with Starbucks 'tall' and 'short' size cups and there are no issues. Large cups aren't a problem, so the fact that it fits a Starbucks 'short' is good. If you have a smaller cup, it may not. Has fit all wire-type shopping carts I've used very well & stable. Nice and small to keep in car / pocket.

I ended up wraping the bare metal circle with yard to prevent it from scratching my mugs. otherwise it worked but I had to also stretch out the circle to fit my mug which made it difficult to hang on the cart. It will not hold a soda can or anything that is not tapered.

I live in South Dakota, and for those of you who don't knowit can get VERY COLD here. Right now we're having a little "arctic blast" as the weather service calls it and our high temp today was -1 degrees Farenheit, with wind chills 30-40 below. We have a nice, but older 1960's home with old insulation and windows, plus hardwood floors which makes it harder to keep the rooms warm. This heater is a new model for Delonghi, so there weren't any reviews out there when I bought it so I took a chance on it, and I'm glad I did. It kicks out alot of heat, has a programmable thermostat, and has the option of oscillating which spreads the heat around quite well. As far as the loudness goes, yes it is a bit loud for some people, but certainly not even close to a hair dryer!! . But you do get used to it and its great for white noise if you need that to sleep at night. The only thing I dislike about it is that it beeps every time you change a setting, or move it, which is a little annoying. Overall I like this heater VERY much, it puts out alot more heat than our other Delonghithe DCH1030 (smaller, non-oscillating, no remote, not programmable)and even that one is a good heater. We use the DCH4590ER in the evenings after work in the living room while keeping the house thermostat at about 67 degrees. When its time for bed we move it to the bedroom and set the house thermostat set at 62 degrees to save on gas. In the bedroom we set the DCH4590ER's thermostat set at 67, sometimes 66 degrees, and we are very comfortable under our down comforter. We put our Delonghi oil filled heater in the living room at night for the cats. It keeps the chill off the room nicely and keeps the house heat from kicking on as often. The trick to using these heaters is to not expect them to warm up an ice cold room instantly. It won't happen. But if you just want to keep your house thermostat set lower to save on your heat bill, and use these as supplemental heat sources, they are great. I will update this when I get my next months bills and see if these electric heaters saved me any money.

I have an elderly family member with a lower-circulatory problem and limited mobility, so we needed something to heat localized areas of the house to keep her comfortable. This space heater remote controlled, adjustable thermostat filled the requirements perfectly. Unlike other reviewers, I have no problem with the fan noise -it's a small unit and has to "blow" the air -not terribly loud, but noticeable, definitely not a deterrent for us. The added safety feature (turns off when tipped over) works and has saved us from a couple of mishaps (inadvertent bumps with the wheelchair). It works well in relatively small spaces, heats in seconds, and has proven to be very reliable so far. I'm considering one for the home office (for use in the cooler mornings/evenings).

Everything about this heater sounds great: 24 hour timer, digital display, remote etc... But there is one drawback I should have noticed that was omitted from the desciption -The Noise. This tiny heater is about as loud as a personal hair dryer.

A shame it's this loud because it cancels out every other redeeming factor. I returned mine for a refund. 2 stars.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi DCH4590ER Safeheat 1500W Digital Ceramic Heater

Loved this heater. We used it in our baby's nursery to keep the heat regulated overnight while the rest of the house was cooler. It worked great and we felt safe using it. Then after less than a year of use it just stopped working. No reason for it to have stopped. Very odd. So, that issue was disappointing.

The heater does provide adequate heat (one star for living up to its name), and the tip switch works (one more star for that feature working). Not suitable for quiet environment. Thermostat sucks.

My 10+ year old space heater started to rattle this winter, loud enough to wake me up at night. So I need a replacement. This DeLonghi will not work out. The thermostat control is just inadequate. The unit requires too much manual input. Lowering the thermostat below the desired temp did not turn off the heat. I had to switch modes to turn off the heat, wait for it to cool down, then crank up the thermostat again when I felt a chill. It will turn off by itself when the ambient room temp is above the thermostat setting, but that won't happen until spring.

Smaller nits to pic: I choose this Delonghi because it is the same size and has similar features of my old unit. I expected some wind noise, but it is louder than I am used to. The all-seeing-eye makes a nice night light but not the easiest display to read. The unit BEEPS each time you press the remote. The tone is just about right for a fire alarm, only a little softer. On the topic of fire and space heaters, the tip switch is one of my criteria for choosing this unit, and it works.

After doing some research on sets like this one, I was under the impression that this particular product would hold up best in outdoor conditions. It had rust forming on it within a week of being outside (under "normal" weather conditions). I have had this for a while now (more than a year) and It is now completely rusted. I still use it however, even though it doesn't look like stainless steel anymore. One twisted handle does now have a break in it (I don't know exactly when that happened) It wasn't from use, it just snapped. Again, it is sturdy enough that I still use it, but don't expect it to retain the nice stainless steel look it has when new. That look will not last long outside!

I have provided two personal photos to show size. I am satisfied with this heater but beware that most states, including mine (MA), prohibits vent-less heaters as primary sources of heat and should only be used as supplemental.

With that said, please be aware that although this product is 99.9% efficient, the unit does give off a smell. The gas by-products that are burning off into the air make the .1% and it is important to keep one window cracked 1 inch.

I have a 1000 square foot apartment, and this year (December 2012) temperatures have dropped below 32 degrees a couple of times and this heater has more than done its job. It is extremely warm and very nice to look at with the blue flame and compact size.

This model does NOT have a digital reading of the temperature despite the product image description. I did purchase an indoor digital thermometer along with a carbon monoxide detector for safety, it has not detected any levels of carbon monoxide. It does come with a kit to either mount it to the wall or have it free standing.

I spent over 5 months researching gas heaters before buying this one, and am overall very satisfied with the physical and mechanical performance.

I did have to call customer serviced a couple of times with questions and they were not only helpful but there weren't any wait times.

Great heater! We had a Williams brand wall heater that failed on us. If we were to fix it , it would have cost us around $150 just to buy the pilot for the old heater SO we decided to try this product. Note that the one we bought does not require vent, blue flame, natural gas. The blower fan blows the heat from the unit towards the room it helps make the room heat quicker and it helps keeps the unit and the things close to it reasonably cool. Also we got the blue flame coz we read somewhere that the yellow flame gives out radiant heat (not sure). The 20k btu heats up a 20-30 degrees 700 sqm (approx) fairly quick. I would buy this product as a gift or recommend it to others.

I am pretty happy with the heater, but I have run several tests on the blower fan ... and I can't even tell a 1 inch difference in whether the fan is on or off.

I hear the fan running, (and I can see the blades moving) but it does not blow into the room (not even one inch more than if the fan is not on) I am beginning to think the fan blades have no significant pitch to them ie they just spin but do not move any air forward.

What do you suggest?

Purchased in winter of 2009. I use to heat my insulated 20x17 garage, while I work on my vehicles or tinker with projects. It does a fine job. It takes about an hour or so to get the whole garage comfortable(65 degrees). I turn it on the 1500W setting to get up to the set temp, then turn down to 1300W setting and it kicks on and off to keep the temperature where it should be. If you're looking for a unit to keep a garage at a very warm temp(above 72 degrees)or warmer, you better have an unbelievebly well insulated area, and you definately need to spend more than $20. The safety tip over switch works very well has come in handy a few times.

I purchased this heater about 5 months ago before it started getting cold. Once the cold set in I started using this unit and and the first few weeks were fine. About 4 weeks into using the heater it started turning off by itself and turning on again minutes later. Now its to the point where it turns off literally every other minute its on and it stays off for about 10 minutes. Needless to say its not doing its job as a heater and if I could return it I would.

This heater has an engineering flaw in the thermostat that causes the heater to turn on/off repeatedly when it should be running constantly. Once the heater gets up to temperature it then cycles on/off.

This product was easy to put together, easy to clean, and does an excellent job at removing stains. My carpet looks brand new. Yes, this device adequately heats up the water! I was so surprised at how light it is, and how easy to operate. I would recommend this device to anyone that is no longer willing to pay top dollar to have professionals steam their carpet. My high traffic areas due to small dogs and small kids are very clean now.

I bought this a few weeks ago, and wish that I had gotten it years ago, when I was first thinking of it. We bought and moved into a house a few months ago. The folks who had lived here before us had quite the menagerie of animals, and apparently little concern for potty training them. When we toured the house it wasn't so noticeable to us, but when we brought our own pets (2 large dogs and an elderly cat), it became clear rather quickly that the scents were still noticeable to them. So, they began marking their territory. We'd catch them in the act, clean it up immediately, and didn't have too many problems -until the amount of incidents began growing, and we couldn't catch them all.

I have used quite a few sprays, powders, and finally broke down and rented a carpet cleaner from a place that was on my way home from work. That was the worst idea, because their machine somehow ended up making ALL of my things smell even MORE like urine. So, I reluctantly rented a rug doctor from a more reputable source (how sad is it that my neighborhood grocery store is a more reputable source than a vaccum repair shop?), and got to work. I spent literally sixteen hours of the 24-hr rental period canvassing our entire house twice. It smelled and looked great, got rid of the other rug cleaner's pee smell, and most of the spots in our house. There were still a few stubborn ones, which I attacked with some of the enzyme sprays that were highly reviewed on Amazon.

Now, the rug doctor is pretty neat. I'm not gonna lie. I was kind of wishing I could just buy one of those, because renting one every month seemed redundant. So, I got online (amazon to be specific), and started comparing consumer carpet cleaners. I read many reviews, and finally settled on this one, because quite a few people seemed to prefer it to a Hoover. I was going to order one Prime, but then caught my dog barfing up his dinner, and decided I needed one pronto. It's the same price at WalMart, so I drove there post haste and picked it up. I wanted to get the ProPet, but it wasn't in stock, but this was my second choice, and it hasn't disappointed yet.

The unit itself was relatively easy to put together I did it all by myself, no help from the husband at all. No missing parts, nothing backwards, I did not even swear once during the entire process so you've got to know that it's user friendly. I'm not exactly mechanically inclined, but it only took about 20 minutes, which I attribute to the fact that I was watching TV at the same time.

It runs smoothly, and isn't too loud. It's not one where you can watch TV while you use it, but the noise is comparable to our vaccum. I can easily have a conversation over the volume without feeling like I'm shouting. I like that while the clean water bladder is nestled in, it's easy to remove and replace. I've been taking it out each time I rinse the dirty water resevoir, just to make sure that everything is rinsed off and I am completely paranoid of it somehow getting stinky like the vaccum place's machine, so I rinse it out thoroughly. I haven't figured out how to take apart the top quite yet so that I can rinse out the extractor completely, but it looks like it will just require a screwdriver if I really feel the need.

It extracts water pretty well, too as good as the Rug Doctor. The only thing that I view as a bit of a catch 22 is that while it's good at extracting water, it's also good at extracting anything that the vaccum missed. I don't know if that means that I need a new vaccum, but it always seems to have bits of carpet lint and fur that it will leave balled up behind it. That part is nice, because it's not going to clog up the extractor, and the lint balls are easy to pick up, but its still not preferable. Regardless, the point I'm trying to get to is DO NOT use this without vaccuming first. I'm a neurotic vaccumer because our dogs shed like crazy, and while the carpet looks spotless after a vaccum, it still picks stuff up.

I gave this only 4 stars, because I wish that there were more attachments when it comes to the tools. It has a handy little brush, but I was hoping for more versatility. It's also a bit clunky when trying to get it up and down stairs I pretty much just end up dragging the danged thing, but its good for building muscle, I guess. It moves well on carpet, doesn't catch like the Rug Doctor did (we have super thick Berber upstairs), and stores easily in our broom closet.

Overall, it's worth the purchase price. It gets the carpets very clean, manages to catch dirt and hair that I wasn't able to see, and has been instrumental in making my house smell better. I've been using it once a week since I brought it home, save for the 3x the first week to clean up residual pet messes. I've got quite a bit of confidence that it will last for many weeks and many cleanings to come.

I recently remodeled our master bath and needed a heater. After considering 6 units I settled on this one. Installation was very easy (except for getting a 220V wire there). This is really nice unit. It's small, attractive and the LCD panel is well thought-out. You can see the room temp at all times and the controls are logical. Hooked up to 220V it's surprisingly powerful. It heats this small bathroom in minutes. It was a good choice for me.

Since writing the above paragraph I've had two F8 error codes, indicating a fault in the control. Both cleared and it has not had another in several weeks. One more and I'm asking for a replacement unit. Still, it was the best heater for my bathroom in many ways.

This heater seems to have been cranked out to take advantage of the popularity of the new Micathermic technology. This new heating technology heats up the panel very quickly, but takes as long as the oil heaters to heat the room. This is to be expected. With out a fan, the speed of heating is determined by the size of the heating surface. Which in this case is around 30" X 30". This technology is completely silent, compared to the bubbling noise of the oil radiators.

Ok, the mistakes Soleus made. The digital thermostat is somewhat for show. In my 10' X 10' room the heater is set for 77 but the room never reaches 70 degrees. The heater turns off making you think it has reached it's goal. Same room, I put in another Soleus heater. I initially left this heater at the default 68 degrees that is displayed when the unit first comes on. Now the room stays above 78 degrees. After much experimentation and repositioning of heaters, I've discovered a trend. Each heater has a fixed error in their temp sensor. For instance the previous mentioned heater is exactly ten degrees off. You set it for 68, it tries to keep the room at 78. This error is different for each heater. In addition these heaters have roughly a five degree response range. In other words it may keep heating for an addtional five degrees past the target setting and after turning off may not start again until it's more than five degrees below the target setting.

Soleus did a great job at making a silent technology noisy. The single Micathermic panel heats up very quickly, so it expands quickly. Initially you'll hear these little creaking pops as the housing mount points are trying to hang on to the panel as it expands. Then you'll hear a gong as the panel bows out under pressure. These sounds aren't loud, but in a quiet room in the middle of the night, it wakes me up. Smaller multiple panels might reduce this noise problem.

As far as the smell, hang in there. It takes awhile, but it eventually goes away.

I gave this heater three stars because the problems I pointed out are pretty much the norm for most portable heaters I've used. Micathermic technology is great, someone just needs to put it in a quality device.

We are currently living in a small house with no central heat or air while we save for a new house. Because of this, we have had an opportunity to try several types of portable heaters. This heater is by far my favorite. Last year it kept my bedroom very warm. The heat radiates out more slowly than many of the heaters we have tried and it really warms up the room instead of just racing to the ceiling. I never thought about that before, but we are very happy with the results. We are just starting our second year with this heater and have ordered three more just like it. I have read several reviews on heaters and it is weird how some people will love a heater while others hate the same heater. All I can say is that we are using it as a primary source of heat in about 150 square feet where temperatures frequently get in the teens and it seems to do the job well.

Honest reviews on Soleus Air HGW-308R Flat Panel Micathermic Radiator Heater

I've just had this a short time and have been testing it out, so I can't speak to the reliability issues that some have raises. I do think that problem units tend to make it into these reviews more than the trouble free ones. After all, if you get a lemon you are highly motivated to tell the world.

This unit heats my room up much faster than the 1500w Deloughi oil unit that I tried. It is much quieter than the Sunbeam quartz unit that I tried. There is a slight hum when it is heating, but not at all objectionable. There is definitely some radiant effect that you can feel several feet away so it can be used as an instant-heat, personal heater. I find the thermostat to be fairly accurate. The room has been running 1 or 2 degrees hotter than the setting. Room is 180 sq. ft.

I am concerned about EMF radiation, so I tested it with a gauss meter. It gets into the "safe" range at about 32" (2 gauss). The reading is negligible at about 52" (.01 gauss). If you don't know what I am talking about, you should do some research if you want to avoid cancer. Most heaters are a little less, but I find this acceptable in the room I am using.

I like the remote because I do healing work in this room and I can adjust the temp without getting up from massage table. Back to reliability: I can't say for this unit, but I have used a Soleus dehumidifier for two summers and it is an outstanding machine. I give this unit a 4 because of others reliability experiences and the slightly higher EMF. As far as performance is concerned, I am thrilled. I needed a machine that was efficient and quiet and this fills the bill. Oil and quartz fell short of the mark. I had planned to get a mechanical thermostat model but they were out. I spent $10 more for the digital and like the way it works and the remote, I think the mechanical would have been more reliable in the long run however. When a digital unit dies it is usually the electronics that fail. (I am a former repairman)

Addendum: Still works fine in spring of 2013. I love this heater--heats room fast and quiet.

This space heater worked fine for about 6 months, then suddenly stopped working. For this price, I expect a product to function correctly and reliably. Less expensive space heaters I have purchased have worked beautifully for much much longer.
