I had read reviews for it a few years ago, and the negative reviews convinced me that it wasn't worth buying. Why buy something when I could clean better without it? I got it as a christmas present a few months ago. It has some issues, but I'm still giving it five stars because I still love it!

SUCTION: It is true that the Little Green is not as powerful as a regular steam cleaner. But the suction is still pretty good. If you hold incorrectly, the opening isn't pressed against the carpeting and so it won't suck anything up. You have to make sure that the opening is sealed against the carpet. Once you know what angle to hold it at, it is easy to get it right. If you are confused about this, try it out on your palm.

SPRAYS EVERYWHERE: It sprays the water in a wide "fan". If it sprayed a tiny stream it would take forever to spray something, so the wide spray is good. If you were using a spray bottle, you'd have the same "problem". If you really don't want to hit something move it or cover it.

LEAKS: If you leave it sitting around full of water, it will leak. Mine has never leaked while I was cleaning, but one time I left it on the kitchen floor overnight and it left a pretty big puddle (of cleaning solution, not the dirty water). When you are done using it, you have to rinse it out and put it away. If I have a lot of cleaning fluid leftover, I put the tank in my mop bucket (opening facing up).

DIRTY WATER TANK HAS GUNK AND HAIR IN IT: Don't you ever vacuum?!(kidding). Pour hot water in there (bathtub faucet works great), slosh it around, and dump it out. Do that a few times. Don't leave dirty water in it, or it will smell. It's dirty water.

YES IT HAS ISSUES, BUT, IT IS WORTH HAVING AROUND: When I think of all the times I had to clean diaper blowout, spit-up, cat puke, and spilled drinks out of the carpet by soaking it up with rags, spraying it, waiting ten minutes and then "dabbing" (over and over and over again, with all the windows open) I just have to think of something else and try to stay positive. If anything happened to my Little Green I would buy a new one in a heartbeat.

I have been using it for months, but today was the day I knew I had to write a review for the Little Green. My toddler took off his diaper, "had an accident" and ground it into the creamy white carpet until there was over a square foot of... well, it was pretty horrible. If I had to spray and "dab" that clean, I'd still be working on it next week. But with the Little Green it took about 20 minutes and that includes the extra time it took to clean out the Little Green (because: ewww).

After having a baby with reflux, two cats, a husband, and ME using tan microsuede couches for almost 4 yrs, I was about to pay to have them professionally cleaned. When I looked into the cost of that, I then started looking for upholstery cleaning machines. With microsuede, if you dont remove all of the water, a horrible watermark is left and these compound over time and make the appearance of the fabric look awful. I knew that whatever I purchased was going to have to be able to remove the cleaning fluid AND clean really well.

This product not only meets my standards, but exceeds them! Worked like a charm and will save us tons of money in the future since we have a new baby coming in 6 wks!

FYI, included with the machine is an 8oz bottle of the cleaner (Advanced Stain). I bought a 32oz bottle along with the bissell because I wasn't sure how much I was going to need per cleaning (only a few ozs!!!) and wasn't sure if any came with the machine. The 8 oz. bottle will last me a good amount of time! Just thought I would mention that!

The machine is a little loud (wasn't sure of what to expectsounds like a vacuum). But, it's worth every penny!!!!!

After reading reviews on Amazon, I sent my grandson to buy locally the Bissell SpotBot Pet Carpet Cleaner. He had not seen what I wanted, and brought this home by mistake. It is the best spot carpet cleaner we could want. The power brush works well, and the vacuum extracts the filth and water, so the restored carpet dries quickly. My house is a severe test, since we have multiple pets, and the less said the better. We have used other carpet-cleaning products with this, besides the little bottle included, and they work well, and the machine has not clogged.

Honest reviews on BISSELL Little Green ProHeat Compact Multi-Purpose Carpet Cleaner

This is the best hundred bucks I have ever spent! I have had this product for several months. I wanted to have plenty of time to use it and really test it out before reviewing. I really wanted the spot bot but could not justify spending that much money on it. After owning it I am VERY happy that I ended up with this instead of the spot bot. I LOVE this machine. I have two dogs and a child (also a military husband who tracks in god knows what on his dirty boots every day) and my carpet is fighting a never ending battle to survive. With this machine I have been able to VERY quickly clean up messes and also remove stains that have been in my carper for over a year. One of my dogs has a bladder issue that has required three surgeries in the past year. In the weeks leading up to and the two weeks following these surgeries he becomes incontinent and leaves at least a half dozen stains (more simply put, he pees in the carpet)per DAY. I have had problems in the past with trying to clean these messes up and just before buying this product I was thinking of replacing my carpet. I bought the little green proheat and proheat carpet shampooer on the same day. THEY ARE BOTH AMAZING! Since I began using them my carpet looks brand new. Literally. My neighbors all comment on how clean my carpet is and ask what type it is since it still looks brand new. I LOVE IT! Every time my dog has an accident or my kid spills something I just grab my little green, spend 30-60 second using it and BAM!, the mess is gone. I have used this to clean us fresh messes and also to clean up very old stains that I thought had no chance at coming out. I am so glad that I did not spend the extra money on the spot bot since I have read it can take over an hour to clean one stain. The little green is so much faster and could not be easier to use!

The only thing I must warn your about is that it is a good idea to actually empty the dirty water tank after each use. I forgot to do this for almost a month and started to notice an unpleasant odor every time I started to use it. When I finally had to empty the dirty water chamber I realized that this was there the smell was coming from. For the first two months I was religious about cleaning the dirty chamber and Flushing the spray line with hot water (as I had read that spray line clogging seemed to be a problem for a few people.) After several months of use I have not been flushing the spray line and only suck up some clean water from my kitchen sink after each use and mine is performing beautifully. It is very simple to use and requires no real preparation. I simply fill the cleaning solution tank when It is empty (rarely) and put it in the closet and it is ready to go at a moments notice. The suction is amazing and the cleaning solution is quite hot after the heater has had 15-20 seconds to heat up. You will not regret buying this product; I promise! If mine were to break tomorrow I would absolutely run out and buy another!

I really look at all the reviews of everything before I buy it. I don't usually write reviews but I felt that this little machine has been so great that I had to let people know. First off, out of millions of these machines sold there is possibly going to be a lemon in the group. If yours doesn't work return it and try a new one. I think I have the slightly older model because mine doesn't have the skinny attachment shown in this picture, but it's the same machine.

I've had this machine over 2 years now and it still works great. It's light and compact, the hose is adequate to get where you need to without bumping into the machine all the time. The machine itself is quieter than some other machines, but of course it's going to be somewhat noisy. You won't be able to clean in a sleeping baby's room, but it won't wake up the whole household if you have to use it in the middle of the night. The electrical cord is long enough to extend to places you need to go and it's very compact and it fits neatly under my bathroom sink without taking up all the room. I like the heater for the water because sometimes the water in the tank can cool down before you are finished with cleaning the spot. The instructions are very easy to follow and it's pretty easy to clean out when you are done. The dirty water tank you do have to rinse a few times and shake the container to get rid of any debris, but truly not that big of a deal. The super tough stain brush is helpful for tough stains. I usually don't have to use it though because the regular attachment does fine.

All in all I would highly recommend this machine. It has been a life saver of stains in my carpets. I have 1 cat, that pukes, a dog and kids and this has saved my carpets many times.

Ordered this product a couple of weeks ago. Looks very nice. Heat is effective. It also has a nice handle to carry it.

However it makes as much noise as a hair dryer. Therefore is hard to keep it on for too long. Am considering returning the item.

Lasko Heater Model 5409 is the newer version of its predecessor, Model 5429 (according to Amazon; which I don't dispute).

BELOW, is my review of Lasko Model 5429. The info about Lasko Model 5429 also pertains to its successor, Model #5409.

SHORT STORY: If you use either of these heaters in a bathroom, the life of the heater will definitely be shortened.

I have owned two of these terrific little heaters -Lasko "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

HOWEVER, I have learned that the manufacturer states that this heater SHOULD NOT BE USED IN A BATHROOM. Not due to safety reasons, but FOR THIS REASON: The dampness/humidity from showers and tubs causes the heating element to corrode -causing the heater to permanently stop working.

I bought my second one of these heaters in July 2012, and on December 31, 2012 (6 months), the heater "died." Location where I used the heater: the BATHROOM.

Here is the link to the Lasko website, and product info for "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

On the page that comes up, there is a button, "User Manual."

Click on that -it brings up a PDF file (which you can download, or read online).

On page 2 of the PDF, go to the second (smaller) "Warning" icon, and below it read item #15:

"15. This Heater is not intended for use in wet or damp locations. This Heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations."

There is a 3-year Manufacturer's Warranty. But, Amazon will not accept return of products whose Purchase Date is older than 30 days. Amazon Customer Service advised me to contact Lasko, which I did: Lasko Customer Service: 800-233-0268. Lasko has graciously consented to replace my heater this time, but they made sure I understand that using it in a bathroom will definitely shorten its life.

HERE is a space heater that is made to work in bathrooms.

In fact, it is named Holmes® Bathroom Heater, MODEL HFH436-NM. Note: Ignore the differing letters after HFH436; these two "models" are the same heater.

Bought this heater for our office spaces and these work so well! The heat coverage is great and it's a very simple, non complicated heater so the functions are simple, hi or low and fan. Temperatures are adjustable and simple dial too. The sound doesn't bother me or my coworkers, it's not that loud, you can hear it but it's not annoying or causing an increase in speaking volume. Someone said it's as loud as a hair dryer -that is inaccurate and over exaggerated. It's a calming background noise. Definitely good when the office gets too quiet.

I Love this heater and I hope it lasts me for next winter too if not, it's so decently priced, buying a new one isn't a problem! I recommend it!

I picked this heater up for $25 at Lowe's and it's a nice heater for the money. Fan became a little noisy after I used it for a couple of weeks. Puts out good heat and heats my little 15x15 shop in a short time.

This worked extremely well on my two area rugs downstairs. They look almost as good as new with bright colors and they look refreshed. The dirty water tank was pitch black after cleaning the entryway and living room rugs. The carpet upstairs looks good as well. The machine is easy to assemble and simple to operate. My only regret is that I did not buy a model with an attachment. I'm not able to clean the stairs with this. If you do not have stairs, I would recommend this.

I knew for the price I wasn't going to get bells and whistles. I have 2 cats that do what cats do, hairballs, some easy to clean and some not. So over 5 years at our house, there were memories everywhere that if you looked really close you could see slight spots in the carpet.

The machine was easy to use, easy to assemble, and easy to clean up after. The results were very good. We have a short pile type carpet and it looks much better after cleaning. Spots I couldn't get out by hand are gone.

The downsides: Apparently there was a document/documents in the discharge tank I was unaware of because when I went to empty the tank it was full of paper debris. Lots of paper debris, big pieces of paper! The lid on the discharge tank is easy to put on wrong, no seal, no suction. And if you forget to put the measuring cup back in the fresh water tank, you have more issues :( My issues seemed to be self inflicted so I didn't hold it against the carpet cleaner.

Finally, the day after I cleaned all my carpets, one of my cats spit up in four places. I got the biggest part with paper towels. I filled the carpet cleaner tank 1/4 full with water and detergent and 5 minutes later there were no signs of the accident. Very plussed as it is usually a real pain to clean up their messes!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program If you're going to buy a Carpet Cleaner, you might as well throw down the extra $20-$30 for the Upgraded Model of your carpet cleaner. That said, the Hoover SteamVac Spinscrub is a solid machine, but lacks a lot of the bells and whistles that the Hoover SteamVac with Clean Surge possesses. The Spinscrub has the same brushes and general cleaning power that the SteamVac with Clean Surge has, but lacks the Clean Surge (For more stubborn stains or for high-traffic areas, this SteamVac also has a Clean Surge feature, which sends an extra blast of cleaning solution into the stain by simply pressing a button on the handle), the 8 foot hose attachment with stair/upholstery nozzle for cleaning stairs or upholstery, and the many tools that you can use to clean other things besides just the carpet. If you don't have pets or young children, have leather couches, and don't anticipate ever living in a two story house with carpeted stairs, this SteamVac will serve you well.

That said, we love our SteamVac. It does a stellar job getting our carpets clean, getting all those random spots out, and because it sucks all liquid off the carpet, it allows for fast dry time. A very minor gripe is that the machine blasts through the water/detergent mix very fast, and doesn't heat the water for you. This isn't a huge problem for us, as we usually have some water heating on the stove while we're cleaning, so by the time we run out of water, the next batch is ready to go. It can also be a hassle to clean out the cleaner, but in comparison to having to rent a carpet cleaning machine, it's well worth the time and hassle. Recommended.

Honest reviews on Hoover SteamVac Spinscrub 50 Carpet Cleaner - FH50027

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The Spinscrub 50 is built off of the same platform as the other Spinscrubs, such as the Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner with Clean Surge. The two main differences are that it does not have either the hand tools or the "clean surge" feature. It's not just that it doesn't come with the hand tools it lacks the internal plumbing for the tools and therefore cannot ever use them. If you don't want hand tools, then this is a nice addition to the Spinscrub line up. The lack of "clean surge" isn't very important, IMO, because that feature can be replicated by simply making another pass or two over an area while dispensing cleanser (this is because the detergent is already mixed in with the cleaning water).

I've owned and used a Hoover SteamVac for six years, and I recently was given the opportunity to try out the Hoover SteamVac Pet Complete. Both are great units and are basically the same. so I was happy to have a chance to review this product (please note that my original SteamVac still works great after six years). If you read my review for the Pet Complete, you'll see that the clumsiness of attaching the hose prior to using the hand tools was one thing that I'm not fond of. So, being able to try out this new version without hand tools was a great opportunity for me. Prior to my first SteamVac, I used a Bissell for about five years. They both have their pros and cons, but I like the Hoover best overall. The Hoover seems like a sturdier unit to me (I replaced the Bissell after it stopped pumping liquid, and the plastic seemed lighter and less sturdy on it). The Bissell was sleeker looking, as this Hoover is kind of commercial looking.

I have stain resistant carpets, so my experience could be different from others. I have cleaned up stains just with a cloth before, using Hoover cleaning solution and water. That said, this cleaner has worked excellently on pet stains that occur from time to time. Perhaps I benefit most from the ease of use. It's fairly lightweight, easy to fill with water, and easy to operate.

Something unexpectedly nice about this model is that the lack of hand tools, and hence the holders for the hose that are on the handles of the other models, allows the handle to lay flat on the ground when you lower it to remove the dirty water tank. The other two models that I have wobble a bit because the hoses are on the carpet. It's a small thing, but I like it a lot.

Things that I like:

Separate tanks for the clean and dirty water. Also, no internal water bladder like on my older Bissell. The tanks are all hard plastic and easy to fill/empty.

Very easy to use. Lightweight and easy to push around.

Fairly quiet. My dog Niki really dislikes my vacuum cleaner, but she doesn't mind this machine too much.

Dries the carpet pretty well when you go over the carpet without dispensing liquid.

Handle lies flat on the ground (unlike the models with the hand tools) when lowered to remove the dirty water tank.

Things that I'd change, but that aren't worth removing a star:

Being able to remove the dirty water tank without lowering the handle all the way to the floor. The clean water tank pops right out of the handle, and I wish that the dirty water tank was similarly easy to remove.

I wish that it heated the water. Perhaps it doesn't make a huge difference, but it's something that I'd like to have.

Overall, I'm happy with both designs and recommend this unit and the original SteamVac. If you don't want hand tools, this is a great choice to save some money. If you do want hand tools, step up to the other models because you cannot simply add them to this model later on.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program hoover is the one to beat as far as I see it. This unit is pretty damn effective at carpet cleaning.

First things first, this is not for lazy people. Getting this out is not going to be an easy thing (not in a bad way though, just get your expectations in check). The first set is to vacuum. Don't skip this step, seriously don't use this on un-vacuumed carpet. The reason being, hair, lint, loose dirt will clog the spinning scrubber pads and you will spend another 20 minutes cleaning that out at the end, on top of the fact that this will lead to reduced cleaning ability. Also this thing requires some set up (getting the detergent tank ready, etc.) and certainly requires emptying and cleaning the dirty tank at the end. None of this is a criticism, It's just the nature of these cleaners. I got a little wordy with the expectation par, just because I feel like this is were a lot of people could get frustrated, but i feel this is more of a mis-alignment of expectations.

So on to the actual performance. This unit really cleans carpet. We haven't run into a stain, spot, etc. that this can't tackly. We have a cat and dog, and S*** happens, literally. We use it for stains and about once every two months for everywhere cleaning. We both really like it. It's not too heavy, even with a full tank (It's not super light though either).

I don't know that everyone would have this much interest in keeping super clean carpet, but I would recommend this to anyone.

Lifesmart Power Plus 6 Element 1800 Square Foot Infrared Quartz Review

Customer Ratings:

CONS: Light weighted cabinet (not stable); imitation wood (sticker); inaccurate temperature detection; displayed temperature is the temperature to reach, not the current temperature in the room; fan is very loud; no battery for the remote; advertises as a 6500 BTU when in fact it is a 5100 BTU unit.

PROS: Light weight (but easy to move); has auto turn on and off; has an economy mode setting (500 watts); master on/off switch; fan seems to blow pretty hard.

NEUTRAL: Heat blows toward the floor (maybe 35 degree angle)

..based on my experience attempting to return this item, BEWARE OF FAT BOY TOOLS a seller of this item. They attempted to close my claim for a return and sent me the following message: "Fat Boy Tools has closed your return request. The reason for the closure of your request is: Solved a technical issue" WTF.

I decided on this particular heater over others because it advertises the heater as 6500 BTUs and a five year warranty. When it arrived and I was looking at the box I noticed that it was only 5100 BTUs and has a 3 year year warranty. I thought they had sent me the wrong one but when I compared the model number it was the correct model number. I contacted the company that sent me the heater and they just said that that was the information the Lifesmart company provided them with. To me, that is false advertising!

For starters, I think this is the first time I've taken the time to write a review. I was just a little frustrated how poorly this product was ranked after I committed to buy two of them.

I actually bought this product from e-bay as they were running a big sale. However, I buy a ton from Amazon and always compare prices to theirs and often look at some of the reviews. As with any other item, there are almost always a lot of likes and dislikes. This product had plenty of one star reviews which kind of scared me. Then, I looked at the intelligence level of the reviewers. The fan was "noiser" as opposed to "noisier". One star because the remote didn't have batteries, really??? It wasn't made out of wood, it was plastic on wood. Not true with mine, it's not oak or anything, but it is at least veneer. It only raised the room "2 degree" my old one raised it "8 degree". Firstly, more than one means "degrees". There were some other reviewers that had experience with more expensive units that said this performed "comparably" for the price. I went with the more educated people and bought two of these units. I've only been using them for two days and I'm actually pretty impressed. I use these for localized heating because I run a pellet stove in a 2,850 square foot house. The heat simply can't make it to all areas. I was using some smaller electric faux stoves that worked fairly well. However, not all of them I had have built in thermostats. These units do and they seem to work pretty well. I had one in my bedroom (big bedroom and master bath) and set it at 65 degrees last night. This morning, my atomic clock was reading 63.9 degrees. Close enough considering I have the blower pointing away from the clock. I'm sure it would have been higher if I pointed the heater towards the clock/thermometer. This was on the low (500W) setting. I have not even used the 1,000W setting yet. This product is advertised to help supplement your existing heat and to be efficient at doing so. I don't pay that much attention to my electric bill, but it's 1,500W which seems to be the max for all of these small stand alone units (for the most part). I have oil heat which I have not used for two years since installing a large pellet stove, thanks to my free Obama money at the end of 2011. But, as mentioned before, the heat can't permeate through my entire house well. I use some ceiling fans to move the air around but that's not enough to get the upstairs warm. Yes, I understand, heat rises, but apparently, not as much as I would like. So, in a nutshell, this seems to work great to heat a room locally. It also has an auto on/auto off timer. I have not used that either, but figure the auto on will work nice to come on a couple of hours before you get home. It's not like an alarm clock. You have to tell it to come on in a certain amount of hours. Other complaints included that the display shows the setpoint, not the actual temperature. OK, some people will want it one way, some the other. It seems to hold the setpoint fairly well, so I'm OK with that. Another heater I have displays the actual temperature of the heater, so it is consistently hotter than what the actual room temperature is. Lastly, some people complain it's too loud. The filter on my fishtank, which is called a Whisper filter, is louder, so the volume does not bother me. Seems fine. I guess that's enough said, I think it's a pretty good product. While it may not completely heat your trailer, it's pretty good for keeping some larger rooms that need a boost nice and cozy. I'd recommend to a friend.

Pros:

Attractive package that you can easily put a picture or plant on top of

Fully assembled upon arrival, including the wheels (which are stable as opposed to one review)

On/Off Timer

Remote (except for the added $1.00 you'll have to pay for two AA batteries)

F/C temperature display

Directional heat as you can point it where you want the heat to go

Cons:

People seem to have had problems with the vendor they purchased it from when they were dissatisfied

Doesn't have the fake logs and flames that the faux heaters have that most people actually enjoy

Won't walk my dog or make me coffee in the morning (just had to come up with a complaint like the other one star reviews)

Sorry if I insulted anyone's intelligence, but some of those reviews really are comical.

Happy New Year

Honest reviews on Lifesmart Power Plus 6 Element 1800 Square Foot Infrared Quartz

I bought this product for 179.00 on Amazon, through FAT BOYS TOOLS. It works about the same as my hair dryer on warm.

It ran quite for about three hours and now makes enough noise to be bothersome.

Honestly, I have a 30.00 radiant heater that works ten times better.

In retuning this item I have to pay a 12% restocking fee, that is 31.60 to me, and a 11.40 pre paid shipping fee. The grand total for 43.00. I have learned my lesson, do not buy from Fat Boys Tools. I tried to work something out with them, I wanted a replacement heater, but they don't sell any other heaters that work better then this one. In fact the young lady in customer service told me that this heater only heats as a secondary heater and brings the room four degrees higher then the primary heat source has heated it. Sounds to me that 1800 square feet "line" is just an eye catching bate, It is advertised to "1800 Square Foot Infrared Quartz Heater...." Sounds to me like it might heat that 1800 square ft. space. My place is no more then 600 sq. feet all one room, No it is not warm!!!

Sadly, Elizabeth Ma.

Whynter SNO ECO-FRIENDLY 13000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner Review

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $575.00
Sale Price: $535.49
Today's Bonus: 7% Off

I ordered this unit thinking it was what I wanted for my upstairs bedroom because I wouldn't have to give up one of the two windows and then could move it to the extra room while sewing. I live in MA and it worked fine the end of June, beginning of July. It cooled the room in no time at all. We then had a cold spell and didn't use it til August when it became brutally humid. I woke up after 2 hours of use and it shut itself down. Found out that the reservoir filled up. I drained it (which isn't easy since the drainage hole is very close to the floor) it turned on by itself and then in 2 more hours did the same thing. I contacted the company.

This is what they said: "Thank you for your purchase of the Whynter SNO ARC-13W portable air conditioner. Can you please put a pan under the drain plug of the air conditioner and remove the drain plug at the back of the unit? Once all water is drained out, the air conditioner should come on automatically.

Please make sure that the exhaust hose is not blocked or bent and able to vent the hot air with moisture to the outside. It is common that the unit is not able to exhaust the moisture collected if your room temperature is low or if the outside is raining or extremely humid. Also, sometimes when you first start running an air conditioner, the self evaporating system may not function in full capacity.

Also, you may want to set up the air conditioner to have continuous drainage by inserting a drain hose to the drain spout if you live in a humid location."

In order to put a pan under it, I had to elevate it on blocks. The pan filled up every three hours so I had to set my alarm to empty the pan.

The company offered a drainage hose but because it doesn't have the capability of pushing out the water, I would have to elevate the unit above the bottom of my window as to put the hose out the window. I contacted them again.

This is what they said: "Thank you for your reply. In order to set up continuous drainage, we recommend to elevate the air conditioner. We can send you a continuous drainage hose which you can connect to the drain plug of the air conditioner. to drain out the moisture continuously."

That defeats the purpose of "portable" so I guess if you live somewhere where it is very humid, this may not be the unit for you.

I've owned and used several portable air conditioners over the years and I'm truly surprised at the speed of innovation over the last several years. Now it has come to a point where portable units have moved beyond your functional clunky beige contraption to something that has been designed to subtly blend into the surroundings. After deciding between this and a Delonghi (yes, I've finally arrived now that I can afford high-end appliances!) I decided to go with the more compact unit that was at a more affordable price point. I've been using this for about a month now and have been completely satisfied with nearly all aspects. One little gripe that I have, is the absence of handles on the side, it definitely is heavy too. It does however churn out very very cold air, look extremely slick and is a snap to use. The remote control has a myriad of functions that I will eventually use one day but for now, I just need the icey relief from a hot spring day.

Great unit, I bought it to cool off the upstairs hallway and bathroom. It actually cools off the whole second floor of my home which keeps the downstairs cooler. Most portables have to be emptied everyday but this unit doesnt need to be emptied for at least a week (I know hard to believe). I like that it has two intakes on both sides and they are easy to clean. It isnt as heavy as my other portable units. I didnt have any problems with shipping. I am really happy with the unit, as a matter of fact, I am buying another one today and throwing out the old one that leaks all over my floor!

Honest reviews on Whynter SNO ECO-FRIENDLY 13000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

This is a great little air conditioner. I was skeptical about buying a portable A/C due to the many complaints I've read about them, but due to the restrictions in my NYC co-op prohibiting window air conditioners, a portable was my only choice. I bought this to supplement the mediocre central air in my apartment, which is both too weak for the space it's supposed to cool, and not activated in time for the season's first heat wave. This usually happens in late April or early May and forces me out of my un-air-conditioned apartment for a few days.

I was able to hook this unit up quickly. I had to cut the plastic window assembly, which was too long for the width of my window, which was easy to do with a metal ruler and a utility knife. I also had to seal up the edges where the assembly meets the window frame, which I did by cutting some foamcore strips to the right width, covering them in black duct tape, taping them to the top and bottom of the plastic window assembly, placing the assembly in the window, and sealing the joins with more black duct tape. Using duct tape that matched the black window frame made it look neat and seamless. Aside from buying the materials, it took around 30 minutes total to get this out of the box, hooked up and working.

This unit emits a steady stream of freezing cold air, taking my apartment down from the 73-76 degrees provided by the building's unit to around 65-68, which I find much more comfortable. So far I've left it on most of the last 3 weeks and haven't had to empty it yet. The cooling is most effective near the unit, which I keep near my desk and bed, and less effective across the apartment in the kitchen, which is closed off allowing less circulation, and has a refrigerator emitting heat into the room.

The unit emits about the same amount of noise as a large fan. I find this easy to sleep to. Whether or not the compressor is on or off, the noise level is about the same. This unit is one of the smaller portable air conditioners I've encountered, which should make it easy to store in the winter.

Much can be said about this unit but I will keep it short.

It does what it's supposed to. There are plenty of features on it.

The weight is impressive. I read that it was heavy but for it's size, it's...heavy.

I was lucky that the unit arrived in good condition. Due to the weight, I believe it could be shipped with more protection and I can see how others received broken units.

This thing runs constantly. I live in a dry climate so I don't have to empty any reservoirs. It's still keeping things cool. The filters are easy to get to and clean.

We use kerosene heaters all the time during the cold Missouri winters. I have a large 23,000 BTU heater (the most common style you see in the hardware stores) and I have a radiant 10,600 BTU that we use all of the time. I found my 23,000 BTU heater to be too much of a kerosene sipper so I wanted another smaller unit for my downstairs so I opted on this one. This model is advertised as being a convective AND radiant kerosene heater. I will tell you straight up, the reason they are also calling it radiant heater is because there is no housing around the flame and you do get some but very little radiant heat from this heater. Most of the heat is convective wherein it warms the air coming from the top of it. The main reason I decided on this heater was I liked the fact that I could see the flame. It's fun to watch a flame burn while you are sitting there relaxing on the couch. This heater is pretty easy to operate. Fill up the tank (about a gallon of kero), wait an hour and push the ignition button. (don't forget to install the batteries for the ignition). Now, the biggest problem I have with this heater is the control knob. You turn the knob clockwise to raise the wick. Just like with any kerosene heater, after it has warmed up and the kerosene is vaporizing more efficiently, you need to adjust the wick (i.e. lower it) because the flame starts growing too high. You need to maintain about a 1/2 inch flame around the burner (too high of flame,you get soot and smell from burning too rich...think of a candle with too long of a wick). This heater, unlike your larger convective kerosene heaters, gives you almost no play whatsover to lower the wick and you must, while holding onto the knob, press the off button, which releases the wick. Other heaters are designed to give you enough play with the knob to lower the wick w/o having to use the release/off button. So, getting it to lower just right is a pain. It usually lowers too much or you end of with the wick contracting completely and have to start from ground level again. Now, it's not THAT big of a deal (for me anyway), just a minor irritation. I can live with it. But it may be a bit too troublesome for someone who isn't experienced with kerosene heaters. I still enjoy the heater, it warms a bedroom or living area very nicely without sucking so much kerosene like the bigger guys, but if you do decide to purchase this, be ready to fight with the wick a little to get it lowered after it's burning. They need to redesign the clockwork mechanism with that knob. Besided that, I like everything else. It's fun to be able to watch the flame dance around. The fuel guage is nice to let you know how your kero supply is doing. The carrying handle is well built and it's not too heavy to carry around even with a full tank of kero like the bigger units. I rate this unit a straight B. It would be an A+ if it weren't for that knob.

Basically I like the heater. It looks to be the smallest I could find in the US. Maybe, though, I should have gone with one named 'alpaca' shipped from Korea which would have cost $175. in total. I light the heater outside, wait for it to warm up and bring it inside. Then take it outside to shutoff because they smell bad. The wick knob ratchet DID NOT work at all on my heater! The plastic release lever was not connected to anything! I cut the hooks off on both ends of the spring on this adjuster and now I can adjust the wick and simply turn the knob all the way counterclockwise to shut it off. I called World Marketing and told them I want some refund in price because it didn't work at all and there were already other complaints. She told me she wasn't giving me any refund. The instruction on assembly are not good and don't describe how to install the wick well. I have a CO detector just above my wood stove door and see it works every time I open the door. These kerosene heaters need to be operated in a narrow range or they'll produce CO and smell. This woman tried to tell me CO is made from re-burning CO2. She has it backwards-I could look this up and calculate the change in energy states of each reaction if need be. I give this product and WM zero stars. I've seen this before. Some importers think they can make a good profit for themselves and all they have to do is import stuff from China or wherever and don't even inspect to see if the parts fit together.

Reddy Heater 50,000 BTU Propane Forced-Air Heater #RLP50V Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I poked around on the manufacturers web site before buying this heater to heat my garage but the site was a little misleading in that they don't tell you that this shouldn't be used for an application like I wanted. It touted the heater as being odorless which it definitely wasn't! I don't have natural gas in my neighborhood so that was out, I didn't want one of the 100lb tanks that the other "vent free" models need so I'm going to try to get rid of this one as I've just replaced it with one of the 240v electric heaters that hang from the ceiling.

I'll give it three stars as I'm sure it will work well in an open construction environment which might rate a 5 but for my application it definitely gets a 1.

I have had this Dimplex electric fire place heater in the past and used it continuously for 8 years. A small circuit board failed and it was unable to be repaired.I then contacted the Dimplex company to buy the same one only to find out that that Model DF3003 had been discontinued. I checked out Amazon and I was lucky to find that they had this model . My only problem was that they asked $ 300.00 more than the selling price so I had no choice but to pay the price. I still have my other unit and will somehow find the circuit board and have it repaired and keep it as a spare or sell it on Amazon.

I'm an air conditioning contractor and purchased this item to cool my insulated garage. When I finally got it together and turned it on, the compressor didn't come on for a few minutes. When it did, it cooled like it should. But after about 5 minutes the compressor turned off. Probably on high pressure. It was only 88 in the garage. This thing should be able to handle that load. The controls are easy to figure out but the air outlet only adjusts left or right. You can't change the discharge direction up or down. So the cool air (when the compressor is running) hits me in the thighs, I would rather like to be able to direct the air discharge up and across the area for better circulation. Overall, this is a big disappoinment. This item maybe useful as a supplemental A/C, like in a room that doesn't cool well. But don't depend on it to cool a room by itself. It won't be able to handle the load.

We have the WA-1220M model of this product (virtually identical). If you stand right in front on it, up to about 5 feet away, it's nice. However, it has several drawbacks:

1. It isn't very good at drying the air; evaporation is needed for effective air-conditioning (whether in your car or your home).

2. It must be drained of the water it does pull from the air, and draining the unit is very cumbersome. It comes with a small flexible plastic tube that has to be connected to the rear bottom of the unit; the other end must be lower in order to drain or the unit really does very little and although there's an indicator light that will come on if the unit is quite full of water, it's very rare that the light comes on (and it only does so LONG after the unit has stopped cooling the air). We have taken to wrapping a large towel around the far end of the tube to collect water that drains, but basically you must tilt the heavy unit backwards to try to drain it. This is not particularly effective but it must be done.

3. It has wheels, but it doesn't roll easily (it's hard to push or pull it in a straight line and the wheels are so small even getting over a low rug is difficult.

4. Moving the unit up or down a single step can be accomplished by one person but since the entire unit is made of very smooth, slippery plastic (it has handles but they're very shallow & not helpful), it's more safely accomplished with two people.

5. Consider that this unit, while mobile, sacrifices a good window seal. The large exhaust hose (which pumps the hot air outside) resembles a telescoping dryer hose that easily falls out of the backside of the unit and is awkward to extend evenly. The unit comes with a smallish piece of foam with a cutout hole for the hose. However, you are left with having to find some way to block the rest of whatever window you choose to put the hole into. We use a large carboard box panel and cut a hole out of, then duct-tape the box into the window opening to block out air seepage. As you can imagine, it looks pretty tacky.

We wouldn't buy this again.

Best Haier CPN14XH9 14,000 BTU Portable Room Heat/Cool Air Conditioner Deals

Customer Ratings:

To be fair, the unit does well on cool days (below 85). On hotter days, when you really need it, it barely keeps my 350 sq ft. appartment at 80. This is not my idea of comfort. In addition I don't cook in the apartment and I don't have massive southern exposure either so those excuses are not valid. This unit simply doesn't live up to the 14000 BTU rating (considering entire houses run just fine on 2 ton units). Called customer service today and they'll send a technician over, we'll see what happens but I don't think they'll consider it faulty. My impression so far is save your money and buy something better.

Update: Last time I reviewed this AC I'd just bought it. Obviously the technician didn't find it to be faulty he just said I was expecting too much with the weather outside (it was 95 or so outside). I've had it for 2 years now and it keeps the apartment (350-400 sq feet BTW) cool enough (72-74 degrees) on days where it's mildly hot (mid 80s) outside but it consistently fails to live up to the 14,000BTU rating when it's hotter and will leave the apartment at 80-85 degrees or so if it's getting to 95-100 degrees. I've kept it mainly because:

1) I'm at work most of the time and get home at night so this AC's failure isn't as annoying as it could be : )

2) I'd never get my money back

3) I suspect many floor standing models are just as poorly made and I really don't have many windows that I care to block. How much money will I waste to find one that works a little better?

I hope this helps.

I have used this unit for about 5 years. It has worked great as a backup unit at my small store when the main ac broke. I live near the ocean and window units rust away in no time. This unit is indoors and hooks up in minutes. It's fantastic for our older shore home because it can easily be moved from room to room. I have found it works just great in 90* temps because I used it last month during a heat wave. The heating feature is really nice because It will take the chill off the house in early morning without turning the heat on. My 95 year old mother loved it because she could keep the room she was in warmer than the rest of the house, great for us. This unit may not be for everyone, which might be why some don't like it. I love it and would buy another one.

Cheap Soleus Air PE2-08R-62 Evaporative Portable Air Conditioner

Customer Ratings:

I cannot get a window unit due to my window size, and this unit came with a window kit that fit my windows. It worked absolutely perfect for 2 months. Then, on a particularly hot day, the bucket filled up with water and the unit shut off. I drained all the water, which is an absolute pain in the rear to do due to the drain being less than half an inch off the floor. The unit leaks water like a faucet ever since, all over the floor. There is really no effective way to use it anymore. I ordered a different brand that doesn't have water leakage issues. I should have listened to all the reviews I read. I practically paid several hundred dollars for a few months use. What a waste. The unit cools great, but what good is that with water all over your carpet? Stay away from this product.

UPDATE: The unit only leaks when moved. If the water reservoir fills up, and must be drained, the unit must be moved to do so because the drain plug is literally right on the floor and there is no pan or container you can get under it. The reservoir will fill eventually, the unit will have to be drained, will have to be moved, will leak. Once all the water leaks out that is going to leak the unit works great until its time to drain again. Like I said, it took 2 months before I had to drain, but this process was a major PIA. I would avoid this unit, but I still gave in another star because it does not leak except during the drainage process.

The best air conditioners are large central units that connect to a whole building HVAC. Since you're reading this review, it's likely that a central unit isn't a possibility for you like it wasn't for me. If you can put in a window unit, that is your next best bet but if that is not practical, you've got to go portable. You could get a nice fan or an air cooler but that's like taking the bus instead of driving. It's really not the same.

I have two portable air conditioners and both are made by Soleus. This is one of them and the other one is a 14,000 BTU unit. This one cools a 166 sq ft room that only needs to be cooled ten to fifteen degrees and it's more than powerful enough for that. It can bring the temperature down in fifteen minutes or so.

Portable air conditioners, until fans, need to have an unsightly and awkward tube connected to the window. These tubes are inevitable flimsy and don't fit well. They seem unacceptable unless the only alternate solution is to suffer in the heat and then suddenly they don't seem bad.

Soleus is perhaps the best portable air conditioner manufacturer. I haven't ever had a non-Soleus unit but I've heard horror stories about others. I've heard bad things about these too but I haven't had anything bad happen.

This is probably the smallest and cheapest good unit on the market so if 8000 BTU is enough for you, this is an excellent bet.

. . . if you're mindful of one limitation: it condenses lots of moisture into a limited capacity container, and will need to be emptied or drained. It's built low to the ground, so I put it up on a little platform and attached the short included plastic hose to the drain port and put a container under it to catch the "drip" (which when it is very hot and humid is really a "stream"!). Recognizing that limitation (discussed in previous reviews), I've avoided any problems and have been quite pleased with the product. It cools well and in my limited basement space where it is used, it does fine.

Honest reviews on Soleus Air PE2-08R-62 Evaporative Portable Air Conditioner

This works well for the particular conditions in which we're using it. We're happy with it. We live in northern California, where hot weather is usually also dry, and evenings are cooler. We put this in a bedroom that gets very hot during the day and doesn't cool down quickly enough at night. Instead of trying to fit the "window kit" into our old-fashioned window, we just leave the window slightly open with the end of the vent hose sticking out while the unit is running. We run it at bedtime and it cools the room down nicely. I gave it only four stars instead of five because of a couple of design flaws: (1) Though I don't expect that we'll have to deal with emptying the condensation tank much, if at all, it's true that the opening is awfully close to the floor, and I can see that in a more humid environment, where it would need emptying more often, it would be pretty awkward. I don't see why the designers couldn't have put the hole a little higher up so that you could actually get a pan or bowl under it. (2) The instructions said to keep the vent hose as straight as possible, but they put the vent hole at the bottom of the unit too. Most people don't have their windows at floor level, and putting this thing on a table or something would also be awkward, since it's so big and heavy (90 pounds, I think). That said, it works just fine for us sitting on the floor with a 90-degree bend in the hose, so I guess that's not such a big deal.

UPDATE: We've had it for almost a year now and are still satisfied with it. It gets the room nice and cool very quickly, and we have never yet had to empty the condensation tank. So that's not a big problem in a dry climate.

We live in a midcentury apartment building mid 20th century, that is. The building's central air unit has reliably failed during each heat wave we've lived through since moving in. This year, I'd had enough. We ordered the Soleus based on a couple of days of Internet research, and we bought from Amazon for ease of returns if that became necessary. The unit arrived short one panel for the screen-door vent adaptor. We emailed the manufacturerer and they promptly sent not one but two additional panels.

Then we had a few weeks when the building's main A/C was working. But sure enough, another heat wave and the central unit failed. This morning it was 78 degrees in the coolest room of our apartment. We rolled out the Soleus, assembled the vent panel and duct, and turned it on. Fifteen minutes later the room was 75 degrees.

This A/C unit is a bit noisy, but not really worse than the central A/C's fan unit in our apartment. We have the Soleus hooked up in the living room and venting out that patio door. A fan will push the cool air back to us in the bedroom.

78 degrees probably doesn't sound too bad, but when you are 46 and hormonally imbalanced, it's too hot for comfortable sleep. I consider the Soleus a good investment and would add that I was very happy with the fast and courteous handling of our missing-parts request to the manufacturer.

BE ADVISED as noted below, manufacturer out of business, so there is NO 1-year warranty. Seller was helpful confirming that and does provide a 60 day return policy.

We've had a 2 burner Paulin heater for a few years and this 1 burner almost radiates heat as well (although mesh on old burners was wearing out). Another review said it was noisy, but our unit is fine and hardly noticeable on high. DESA, the manufacturer is out of business but replacement parts remain available, but unlikely anything would break down on a simple heater. So order soon before out of stock. Overall the heater is sturdy, puts out steady radiant heat and a good value for the price.
