The fireplace has a very elegant styling to it. It heats very well for a small size room. Would not recommend it trying to heat large rooms. But is a excellant fireplace for small rooms.

Fireplace heats up room very well. But, after the fireplace was installed, the metal plate on the bottom rattles when its running.

I purchased this air conditioner and put it in the window of my office. We have several racks of servers located in the back. Previously we have had many A/C units and they have just not done the job. This unit, with a twin, were able to handle the large cooling load with no problem. Kept the interior in the mid 70's while it was over 100 outside.

I was concerned about purchasing such an item over the internet, but it has exceeded my expectations. Bought as an addition for a church sanctuary, it was easy to install after figuring out the instructions. It cools very quickly and is very quiet. The directional controls for the air flow allow easy manipulation and control. The digital display is awesome and gives you immediate understanding of what you want the air conditioner to do.

This unit works great and is very quiet for a window unit. The remote with timer is very handy. Fit and finish is excellent. The only weak point is the filter. It doesn't fit well around the edges, and it is a very open mesh plastic and I am sure it lets some dust get to the evaporator. I may replace it with a foam filter that will fit better and trap more fine dust. The filter is the only thing that keeps this from getting 5 stars.

The shipping box is sturdy, and the unit arrived with no damage. I am very pleased, and you can't beat the Amazon price on this item.

Honest reviews on Frigidaire FRA296ST2 28,500 BTU Window-Mounted Heavy-Duty Air

We own a 104 year old two story 2800 sq. ft. Historic home that is solid brick with absolutely no insulation. We have a window at the top of the staircase where we have installed our Frigidaire 28,5000 BTU air conditioner. With the use of several 12" Air King velocity floor fans to drive the air throughout the house, this unit cools the entire house very nicely. Whenever we tell people that we are cooling our entire home with this unit and velocity fans, they simply cannot believe it! OK, because the unit often runs longer, and at a lower temperature to accommodate all the space its cooling, it tends to be a little chilly in the small area surrounding the unit. We feel that this minor irritation, along with the added white noise from the fans that accompany it,is a very small price to pay for cooling such a large multi-room home with a total insulation value of about 3. I would also like to add that we live in a part of South Dakota, surprisingly enough, that is known for it's heat and humidity, making the performance of this air conditioner all the more impressive. I write very few reviews but I wanted others, especially those who own poorly insulated older homes, to derive the same benefit we are receiving from this well built efficient air conditioner!

When this AC works, it works well. The problem is I have had it repaired two times in 6 months. They fix it for free under the warranty, but you have to take it in to the repair shop. And it is big and heavy so.... Also pay close attention to the electrical needs of this unit, not a plug 'n' play. Need to have special wiring and plug.

I've been searching for a small, efficient, quiet fireplace stove for several months and have always held back on a purchase because after reading reviews I learn they are either inefficient or loud! After doing a thorough check online about this particular stove, I finally ordered it on Amazon! It arrived in perfect shape, all I had to do was screw on the legs which took about 5 minutes and after reading the directions it was up and running! I really like the option of choosing one of the 500 watts of power or both so energy isn't wasted when I don't need that much heat output. You can also control the intensity of the realistic looking flame or simply leave it off. The stove runs quietly even on the highest setting. The infrared heat is a bonus over other stoves as the heat is absorbed and reflected. I'm using this heater in my 3 1/2 year old grandson's playroom at our home and the safety factor of the unit remaining cool to the touch is a high priority of course, the actual heat source at the bottom of the stove is still a "hands off area"!!!! I can't vouch for the efficiency cost wise of this unit as I don't use it that often but my guess is that it's great! Overall I'm very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend it.

The only minus I can think of is that it does not have a remote personally, I don't need one for its intended use but that might be a consideration for others...say if you're using it in the bedroom and don't want to get out of bed to turn it off or on!?

Another note is that I had questions about the unit before I bought it, wrote to the manufacturer and received a thorough, speedy reply via Amazon always good to know communications are good!

This little fireplace is worth its weight in gold. It's attractive, light weight, cool on top so I don't have to worry about the cat frying herself, and heats up my office beautifully. The fan is a bit louder than I'd prefer, but that is a minor issue since it's in the same room as two computers. However, I don't think I'd want it in a bedroom.

One caveat: If you turn the unit off and move it, it will not turn back on until the heating element cools down. This is a design feature, according to the manufacturer, but not mentioned in the documentation.

Honest reviews on Comfort Smart 600 Sq Ft Infrared Fireplace Stove - CS-18IR

I received this heater at the end of Dec. 2012. Even on high it does not put out enough heat to heat 600 Sq. Feet of space.

Can't really state it's electricity usage because of many other electrical use factors. For around $200.00, this item

is certainly not worth it. It has the basic metal coils at bottom of heater that turn bright orange and a small fan blowing across

them. Typical of old stlye heaters. Many other equalivants at walmart for half the price.

Customer Ratings: 5 stars

I bought this for a newly decorated bedroom and installed it on a wall about where I'd place a picture. It is easily seen from the bed versus having to look down at a floor unit. The flame looks very nice versus some of the weird fake looks I've seen. The remote does change the level of flame, but I keep mine on high because it looks so good. I have not used the heater yet, and probably won't unless electricity goes out and I plug it into an extension cord from a generator. I verified it works. My frame is black, looks very modern, and contrasts beautifully with the fire. The black frame does not distract from the fire, as I think a white frame would.

I use this under my desk at work and it's exactly what I wanted. Variable speed, not too loud, quick to heat. The temperature gauge feature is nice too, as is the auto shutoff in case it tips over.

My entire office is a refrigerator, so this heater provided great comfort from the warmth. I can focus more on my day-to-day work while I'm at a warm desk!

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!

I got this product because I live in an attic space and need the extra heat in the winter at night. Well, first of all this thing is loud. If you're a light sleeper, don't get this. Second, if you even scoot it along the floor (not even tilting it but just scooting), it shuts off. Every time the heat goes on or off depending on the thermostat, there's a loud beep. If you scoot it, there's a loud beep. If you do anything to it there is a loud beep. This heater is very annoying and I will soon be replacing it.

When my old Lasko heater died (the one whose remote control button function locations did not match the same function locations on the similar-shaped control panel on the unit a stupid design error), I looked for a different brand model heater that came with a remote control.

I thought I had found a reasonable substitute in this model, until I set it up and ran through the functions on the remote control, supposedly "the same functions as included on the control panel".

Guess what highly useful feature that I use frequently when I wish to adjust my heater before falling asleep withOUT getting out of bed got left OFF the remote control that comes with this machine:

THE TIMER.

THERE IS NO TIMER SETTING ON THE REMOTE CONTROL.

Whatever other features this machine has that might be nice, this machine is functionally useless to me, and I must return it.

Temperature sensor was bad on my heater...intermittently. This happen a couple of months after the purchase and Delonghi would not respond to my email.

Currently, the heater is broken (1.5 year old). The heater automatically turns off after a couple of minutes, in which it does not put out any heat during those few minutes. I'm shopping for a new heater now...hopefully the Lasko doesn't fail me.

Honest reviews on Delonghi TCH7590ER - Ceramic Fan Heater with Remote Control

Definitely works better in large rooms! One annoyance is if you some much as gently pick it up, it resets itself. Other than that, it's a phenomenal heater!

(caveat-I have only used this heater for 1 day)

Pros: small/easily placed, quiet fan, rotation (can be turned off), effective heat (at least for small space (area around a desk chair); I have not tried a large space), low price (I paid $40 from J&R)

Cons: high-pitched loud beep that sounds every time you change anything, including upon turning on and turning off, fan has only medium and high settings, no low setting

If you want a thermostat-controlled fan space heater then this is good for the price. If you want something with adjustable heat, this is not it. Heat is either on or off, depending on the temperature you set and the temperature that the heater's thermostat measures. If you want a little extra heat where you are sitting (e.g. chilly office), this is NOT a good solution because instead of providing a steady, low supply of heat that you can adjust according to your environment, the heater will just keep turning on and off according to the temperature setting. Every on and off is accompanied by a loud beep not really appropriate in an office.

If I had known that every change in setting and every on and off would be accompanied by a loud beep, I would not have bought this product.

This space heater apparently also acts as a space cooler-you might want to confirm that.

Purchased portable A/C to replace window unit (eyesore). Easy to move romm to room and put away when not in use. We use it to assist our central A/C in the summer, when wife cooks (a lot) and as backup incase power goes out, we can hook it to portable generator. So far works great. Cools room quickly and is quiet. We have it in the room with TV and we do not have to turn volume up real loud. Does have the normal hum of any A/C. I will write back in a few months to update on performance and quality. We live in the south, so we run our A/C's in December.

almost year later. Still working great. use it constantly. we live in N.O. so we do not have long winters looking at possible purchasing a second one.

I have owned two similar units for 9 years with no issues. I wanted to get new models to replace the old ones. The first night, I tried to use the heating option, and the unit just blew frigid air from the back opening. I called Haier the next morning, and was told that, unlike the older models, the new units must be vented to the outside throughout the winter months in order for the heating option to work efficiently. The provided plastic window covering does not close off my entire opening. This would mean having to have an open window throughout winter months just to attempt to efficiently heat the room. This was never explained in the online product specs or in the user manual. SInce I returned the item because it was not what I needed (or "no longer wanted" I did not note any clearer reason option), and it was determined to not be the fault of Amazon, I must pay the $63.00+ (and the $6.00 pick-up fee) for having the unit in my home for just one night. I have learned that it is not advisable to purchase appliances online. If the item is not clearly described (so that you don't realize that you cannot use the item until after it arrives), you are penalized. April 10, 2013 FOLLOW-UP: Amazon agreed that the item was not accurately described by the manufacturer, and that the online and user manual specifications were misleading. Amazon has kindly refunded the total cost including shipping charges to me.

AC works great and just as advertised. I was really impressed with it and I made my decision based on the reviews that were posted. I just wanted to add that the window assembly was a bit troublesome but was not flimsey as I thought it would be from the other reviews. However when I attached the hose connector to the window panel and attached the four screws I was surprised that it fell apart. Then I realised that the instructions says to tighten the screws from the front. Once I took the assembly off the window and threaded the screws from the other side it worked like a charm, no duct tape needed or extra parts.Your reviews helped me, I hope this helps you. Great product!

It works well, cools the air quickly, even cools the air in the dehumidifier mode. It also self evaporates so you don't have to deal with draining it. However, be ware that unless you fall asleep easily in a noisy environment, this machine's compressor is as loud and noisy as you can imagine. When it is on you will feel like you are sleeping at a train or metro station when the train is coming in or out! That loud! If I can afford another at this time, I will definitely ditch it for something quieter. What's good is a portable AC if you can sleep in your bedroom while it is on?

Customer Ratings: 4 stars

The Dimplex Celeste Stove is well made and a much better value than the cheaper stoves that are available.

The "fire" in the stove is realistic especially the glowing embers. To a casual glance it looks like a real fire (although with careful examination the "flames" are not as realistic). The cabinet is very sturdy and gives a well-built feel. The cream color is nice and the finish is durable.

Note that the stove can use a lot of electricity 15 amps when the fire, air filter, and heater are all working. If you have it plugged into a 15 amp circuit any additional load (a lamp, tv, etc.) on the circuit will trip the circuit breaker. Ideally it should have a dedicated circuit for its exclusive use.

I bought this item about Three Years ago We progressed from a wood burning fireplace, to a Gas insert ( really beautiful but expensive to use), "Down" to this unit. I would never have dreamed that THIS solution would be far the best.

Instant heat ( if you want ) , and a SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL, very realistic looking

"flame". After all this time using it I'm still tempted to touch the top to make sure it isn't overheating . It looks that real.

Recently I moved this unit to our Bedroom and put a Dimplex electric fireplace insert in the fireplace ( Dimplex Deluxe 23" insert ~ $300 on Amazon). I like it

very much, but I must admit I still prefer the "old stove" for the absolutely best looking flame. You can't go wrong with Dimplex. They are the Gold Standard for realistic electric fires.

Honest reviews on Dimplex TDS8515TB Celeste Electric Stove, Glossy Black

We purchased this unit to help us heat a medium/large space in our 80 year old that isn't as well insulated or heated as the rest of the house. With the house thermostat set to 67 degrees, that room is 62 in the morning when we wake up and it's in the low 30s at night. So we got this heater...

Pros:

-nice looking

-heats the room rather well...about 2 degrees per hour (not fast, but it's not a big unit, but then will hold it there pretty well)

Cons

-thermostat in the back so a little hard to reach

-can't set a particular temperature, have to let the room get comfortable and then dial down until you hear a "click"

-thermostat seems rather sensitive (slightly further turning = room gets too cold/too warm)

-no timer to allow it to turn on automatically in the AM

-3-stage "on" settings where heat is the last stage...can't have JUST heat, must have fire as well. Air filter/blower WILL be on at all times if you want heat (cycle goes: fire on --> fire + blower on --> fire + blower + heater on)

All in all satisfied, but I wish it had a little more control over the temperature and I wish you could set it to have JUST heat on so it came on/off with thermostat.

We wanted a space heater for our living room that would be nice to look at. I was so pleased with the Dimplex stove technology. This is not a real flame but it is so close to real, its amazing. I can sit and watch that flame and never see the same action twice, it even has little flickers of sparks. The heating element works well too. The only down side, when we initially plugged it in we had a difficult time understanding how to get it going. Once you figure that out, it is simple. Best space heater I have ever seen.
