American Comfort HS1300 Heat Storm Outdoor Infrared Heater Review

Customer Ratings:

Wall mount kit made installation quick and easy. I used a waterproof outdoor extension cord and wrapped the plug joint with a freezer bag and duct tape to keep it dry. Used all last winter in all sorts of bad weather and never had a problem. A bit spendy, but you generally get what you pay for.

I bought two, and am glad I did. Great bargain. Feels nice and fluffy. I use it atop my love seat and it's there to wrap around me when it's chilly but not cold enough to turn on the heater.

Having been extremely familiar with using utility heaters to warm ourselves in the winter I wanted to try out the Patton Recirculating Utility Heater. Upon turning the heater on you could feel the heat instantly. I placed my hand about 12 inches in front of the heater and it was definitely radiating heat.

One interesting point that I noticed with this heater is that the "main" heat stream was pointing upwards. I had never seen that before on a heater but it really made it effective to heat up our small back bedroom. It only takes about three minutes before the bedroom would be up to a comfortable temperature. This will be an excellent choice for a shop heater and with the holidays right around the corner, think ahead of time for the special men or women in your life that spend time outdoors!

Whether you're working with gloves in your shop or not the dials are smooth to turn and easily moveable with some bulky gloves on. There is also an easy "off" setting so that you do not have to worry about constantly plugging and unplugging the heater, which is a big pain from personal experience.

A great heater, warms very quickly and efficiently!

Discount Fahrenheat NPH4A Heavy Duty Portable Heater, 240-volt

Customer Ratings:

This is an excellent heater for anyone who can provide a 20 amp 210-240 volt power outlet for it. We use the same outlet that supplies our 220 v. air conditioner in the summer months. We set it on Auto so the fan cycles off with the heat when the room temperature reaches our setting. It has a thermal cutoff safety switch that works as it should and cuts off the power if the unit should overheat, such as from a piece of fabric cutting off the air flow. This QPH4A is our basic heat source for one floor of a small house and it really does the job when it's cold outside. The heater is compact and unobtrusive and the best feature in comparison to other heaters in its class is that it is very quiet -no rattling and wheezing, just a soft woosh of warm air.

I purchased it in the dead of NY winter (which wasn't all that bad this year). Heated a 16'x15' studio with 12' ceilings to a nice, toasty temperature. It's tiny & reliable. A great value.

after much searching I settled on the Q-Mark QPH4A Portable Electric Heater for my wife's potting shed and craft room, which is a separate building on our small property location. Works great and it heats her potting shed in record time. Her shed is 10' x 16' with a 10 foot ceiling, and is insulated and covered with T&G interior walls. As such, she only has to run Q-Mark on the low setting. Great product, and is relatively quiet and the thermostat works just fine. Only thing I would have liked added to the Q-Mark would be a visable thermometer to see the actually temperature; but we just added a separate thermometer and that does the trick just as well. Heavy duty and well built, I would recommend the Q-Mark without any doubt! Just buy it, and forget your heater worries!!!!!!!!!

This was a replacement for the same unit that I had for 15 years. Little work horse.

I bought this heater as I have a solar system that has generated tons of extra kilowatts that I am using to lower my gas heating bill. I tried the small portable ones from the big box stores but they are made in China and don't hold up well (and I prefer to employ Americans!) I tapped this into an extra 240 volt range outlet in my kitchen that wasn't getting used. It is a solid heater and is relatively quiet. It seems to be very durable and I did call the company and verify it is manufactured in the Carolinas. The only knock I have on it is that I wish it put out even more wattage. I was comparing it to one from Home Depot that was 5600 watt max and this one is only about 4000 watts. I have a large house and ever bit would help. I was not expecting this to heat the entire house...just to supplement and minimize the amount the gas kicks on. Overall I was happy with the product and I do believe if I had bought the cheaper, made in Taiwan unit it would not have held up as long. Vote with your dollars...buy made in USA products, they are better!

Review of The Original SUNHEAT Electronic Infrared Zone Heater with Remote

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $449.00
Sale Price: $329.00
Today's Bonus: 27% Off

Update 03/06/2013

I have had the heater for about two weeks and it had worked flawlessly. I use it to supplement the heat from our heat pump when the heat pump cannot keep up. Its usually when the temperature is in the teens or below zero.

I'm increasing the star rating of the product to Five stars with the some notes and comments.

Product ***** (5 Stars) Works as described and if you are lucky to get a undamaged product.

Product Packaging * (1 Star) I would advise the company to package the product with a lot more padding. The heater is a heavy items and everytime I have received the heater, the accompanying styroform padding is disintegrated when I open the carton

Price *** (3 Stars) I bought the Sunheat original heater, Black Cherry color that sells for $329. The other colors sells for $379 and it is still somewhat expensive.

Power consumption I will update once I have a meaasure the power consumption

Customer service ***** (5 Stars) Amazon customer service is outstanding. Even when I had to deal with 3 defective/damages heaters and one empty box incident that didnt' contain any content, Amazon customer service was outstanding

OTHER NOTES:

I use the Sunheat heater in the living room and feel safe using the heater with a toddler walking/crawling around. The issue I face is that there should be some way to lock out the control buttons on the main heater unit as my curious toddler seems to press the buttons on the unit and mess up the settings. Since the unit already comes with a remote, I would suggest that the manufacturer please look into incorporating this feature which would be very beneficial for the consumer.

Update 02/18/2013

I placed a new order for the Sunheat heater (Black Cherry color) on 02/18/2013 and received the heater on 02/20/2013. The heater arrived in one piece without any issues. Let me review the heater once its been used for a couple of months. Stay tuned....

Update 02/08/2013

When I placed a replacement order for the Sunheat Black Cherry heater, the website showed that it was out of stock. I checked the order status daily. I was happy when I saw that my replacemewnt order had the message that it was shipping soon. When I tracked the replacement Sunheat heater, the UPS tracking information showed it was delivered on 02/05/2013 and was left at my front door. When I went home from work, I saw a smaller box left at my front door that could not physically contain the Sunheat heater due to its dimensions. Also the box was light as a feather. I opened the box and there were some brown paper packing materials in it. An empty box was shipped to me by the amazon fulfilment center. When looking at the Amazon website, the inventory for the Sunheat Black Cherry color still showed out of stock. I called Amazon customer service and explained the situation. Amazon customer service infromed me that they will refunded me the amount. They asked me place a new order when the item is back in stock. I'm still curious to know as to how I managed to get an empty box without nothing in it. All in all I'm still without a Sunheat heater.

Initial Review

==============

I ordered the original Sunheat infrared zone heater with the remote on January 17th 2013. I ordered the Black color and paid $379.00. It was delivered to me on January 22nd 2013. I'm an Amazon Prime memeber and this was delivered using 2 day shipping option. The heater had its own cardboard box, that was shipped inside an amazon box. I opened the heater and noticed that the wood cabinet had a small ship on the side. Hence I requested a replacement. The replacement was ordered on January 22nd and was delivered to me on January 25th via Amazon Prime. Everything looked fine outside the heater. But when I picked it up I could hear noises of nuts and bolts loose and clanking inside the unit. Even though I wanted to return this, I wanted to give the unit another try. As far as the heater it functioned without any issues. But I was not able to set the heaters internal clock. I set the internal clock to 8:24PM and after ten minutes later, when I checked the clock, it still showed 8:24PM. (The internal clock is an essential component of the heater and it is used to program the start and stop times). I wanted to get a replacement unit and placed the order. But I cancelled the order for the Black unit as I saw the unit with the color I wanted at a cheaper price offered by Amazon. I order the Sunheat heater with the Black Cherry color for $329 ($50 cheaper than the Black color) on January 25th and it was delivered to me on January 29th. The outside of the cardboard box looked tattered and beaten up. I still opened the box thinking the packaging inside might protect the heater. But I was incorrect in my assumption. The heater was pretty beat up and whole cabinet unit fell apart when taken out of the box and also there were lots of big nicks and dents on the cabinet. I have requested for the replacement and I'm awaiting to receive it.

Positives

Very good zone heater if you are lucky in getting an undamaged unit

Fast shipping if you are a Amazon Prime Member

Depening on the color choices, you can find the prices cheaper. Example Black unit sells for $379 where as the Black Cherry sells for $329

Amazons hazzle free return policy

Negatives

Bad packaging/carton that disintegrates during shipment

Hit and miss on the receiving a good working heather. (Seems like playing the lottery)

Provides a generous amount of heat. Also generates a loud high pitched whine from the fan. I am returning it

This heater does a great job. I got this heater for when we go tent camping. It was about 35 degrees out the first night and we had to turn the heater back b/c it got too warm.

I'm not going to say that I'm a "heater" expert but I got a pretty good idea how one is "supposed" to work. This heater sucks ***. I have an average size bedroom just barely knocks the chill off, makes noise, AND the worse of the worst...it cuts on and off for no appartent reason (I got 2 at 2 different places/times so I know its not necessarily defective).

Another thing that you might find funny is that this looks "exactly" like the Lakewood heater I previously had...except that the name on it is different. I think somebody trying to run game. Bottom line keep searching (cause I am) & try your luck on another one because this one is some crap if you have an average size room and want one without the noise or cuts off all the god dangin time.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a voluntarily recall for Optimus Portable Infrared Radiant Quartz Electric Space Heaters model numbers H-5210, produced in 2011 and H-5211, produced in 2012. The CPSC in Safety Recall Number 13-191 advises anyone having these heaters, "to stop using this product unless otherwise instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product."

You may find additional details about the recall in the CPSC bulletin at:

http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Recalls/2013/Optimus-Recalls-Portable-Electric-Heaters/

The CPSC advises customers who have purchased the affected product "to immediately stop using the recalled heaters and contact Optimus toll-free at (888) 672-5832 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or online at www.optimusent.com and click on "recall" for more information for more information." Sounds good, right?

I did both of those things but:

1. The Optimus site at the web address given had no "Recall" button on it, or anywhere else on the site I could find.

2. The phone company gave me a recording that the phone number was not operational.

Finally, a call to the CPSC let me know that "this company is being "difficult about the recall," but that the CPSC compliance officer is working on it.

I don't understand how this heater could now be offered for sale after being recalled.
