Its quiet, small in size and attractive. However the face of the heater gets really hot -you would burn your fingers if you touched it right after turning it off. Also the controls being on the rear means you have to turn it around to adjust or "learn" how to do it without looking --mostly OK except the temperature setting wheel has no lines or numbers to assist in setting the temperature so if you have a favorite setting and it accidentally gets reset (easy to do with the thumb wheel being on the back) then you will have to experiment in order to find that setting again. And as in my photos, the high / low heat output button is not obvious as to which is which and the wattage in the documentation is wrong.

Usage Update: you better not change your mind after you turn this guy off (or turn the thermostat down) because it will not restart and put out heat until it cools down -which takes 15 to 20 minutes. It apparently thinks it is overheated and thus the long cool down period is needed before it will start up again. You really have to like small, quiet, attractive and expensive in order to put up with this guy.

If you live in a small apartment, such as the styles found in San Francisco, this is a great piece. It is the least ugly heater I've ever seen, so it doesn't clutter the place. It is surprisingly small, and stows away easily when you are not using it. When you are, it cranks out heat, but rather silently. The only thing I'd say they need to improve is that the buttons on the back are poorly labled. I can't tell if I'm on the high setting or the low setting, because the toggle switch doesn't tell you which is which. Oh, designers.

I was looking for a small heater to take on a cruise through the baltic, where I suspected that it would be very cold inspite of the ships heating system. I liked the looks of the ANNA and the weight. When I got it, it would heat for about three minutes then the thermostat would turn off, and i couldn't get it to turn back on for about 8 hours. I ordered a seceond one and it ran a little longer, but the same problem with the themostat occurred again. I read and reread the instructions, and had my kids read them, but no success.

Once the thermostat would click off heating, even though the thermostat was about in the middle of its range of rotation, I could NOT get it to turn on again for many hours. The purpose of a space heater is to keep the "space" at the temperature you want, thus it should turn off and on again by itself, but if you want the temperature a little higher you should be able to rotate the thermostat and have it turn on again. We have other heaters that work that way, but both of these ANNA heaters would not. Finally I just gave up and sent them both back. I did give it two stars because it is quiet when it did run, the heat output is adequate, and the styling is excellent. But if the thermostat won't turn on and off automatically, or when you want more heat and you turn the thermostat manually...it's useless as a space heater. But it can be used as an expensive, stylish doorstop.

Honest reviews on ANNA Ceramic Heater

This is by far the most architect friendly space heater out there. It puts out a lot of heat and is nearly silent. It does not have much of a fan, though.

The biggest problem is that it claims to have a thermostat. This led me to think that I could set a specific temperature, like 70 degrees. This is pretty much a standard feature on space heaters. It may have a "thermostat" on the interior but the only control setting is hotter/colder. In addition there are no markings on the rolling dial adjustment knob. I guess you could mark it up with a sharpy your self. Isn't this a great opportunity for some minimalist Swiss graphic design? Is no markings the ultimate in minimalism?

If you only use this occasionally, it is wonderful. If you use it daily I would still consider it, but also other manufacturers.

Installation was easy and the product has a nice finish. Looks great in our living room. Eventhough it was bought just for the look and feel of a fire place, it does give off a fair amount of heat as well when you use 3 cans of gel. I Like the center panel that flips down which hides the audio/video equipment when not in use.

Make sure you also purchace the Gel fuel it does not come with the Fireplace. You may also want to get a Snuffer.

Just received this heater. Paid $51. with shipping for it from a reputable source with 30 day returns. Looked it over and have it running full tilt currently. My impression is that it is worth a few bucks more than some of the cheaper plastic heaters. It's about all steel on the exterior and heavy to be so smallvery small. Like the rest, it's made in China but it looks fairly well made. It has a tilt shut off safety that kills the power when the unit tilts about 45 degrees or more to the front or rear but not when it tilts to either side. Claims to also have a thermal safety. Seems to be putting out plenty of intense heat at 1500 watts. It's fan forced heat so it does make the typical noise of a fan forced heater... If you want something quiet, get an oil filled radiator type space heater (my favorite type for safety). It's UL LISTED. If it should fail or act up, will update this review.

Jan 22, 2011, Due to its small size, the outer metal housing does get fairly hot in places. Would not place it on a flammable surface other than wood or tile, etc. It's still working fine. The thermostat control is hypersensitive when it's running hard and hot on the high setting. Sometimes it will turn off and on much too rapidly. Otherwise, it works fine.

Summer 2012: My only complaint is that the thermostat control is hypersensitiveit will cycle heater off and on too fast when it gets room warm. Could have a unit with a defective thermostat. It still gets the job done. Per the reviews I read before this purchase, one should be prepared to return this heater if he receives a bad one. Think a lot of the negative reviews are simply bogus.

Dec 20 2012: The silly Chinese thermostat is working more like it ought to now. Upped my rating from 3 to 4 stars. Would buy another one like this if I needed it.

Jan 2013: Purchased another one for 51.29 with shipping. May get another RV in the future. Two of these small heaters would be just right for a RV to avoid using onboard LP gas... The thermostat on the second one is somewhat sensitive like the first one but they put out heat. When it's cold, that's what matters. The thermostats just cycle off and on more rapidly than most portable heaters.

March 2013: Purchased a third one. Therefore, this must be a decent heater in my picky opinion. They are versatile little heaters that don't take up much space. Upped my rating from four stars to five. It's a good little heater. Being so small is an appealing factor to me. Saw the thermal safety work once on the first one I bought. Had the airflow blocked partially. The red caution light came on and the heater shut down to cool...

Have them rigged on power strips to use in whatever rooms are occupied so it'll be toasty only where needed while maintaining the overall home at a lower, more energy efficient temperature.

This heater is useless. We had it for 2 days and thankfully were able to return it. My 600W power supply on my computer gives off more heat than this. I know the heater is only a 100W heater. It does not significantly warm the air past about 4 to 6 inches from the device. I could be a reasonable foot warmer, but then again why pay this much for a foot warmer? It does get hot in the center, but the edges are cool to the touch. Which shows you just how little heat it is actually producing. The concept was good. The implementation and actual heat produced were unacceptable.

The thermostat setting going on and off will startle you every time. I don't know why the thermostat has to be so loud.

The fan's white noise is tolerable when I'm studying next to it but rather loud first thing in the morning. Not good near a TV either.

However, this is good to put in a room to prevent pipe freeze (set it to 40 degrees).

I bought this Holmes heater for my bedroom because during the winter months, my bedroom sometimes get's that extra chill. This little heater does it job by keeping me warm and toasty. I don't rest my heater on the floor, that does not mean you can't rest the heater on the floor, you can rest it on the floor. I just rest mines on a little wood table and it does the job just find. I have bought many heaters over the years and I love this one the best.

PROS: 1. This heater heats up your room quick.

2. It has tip over safety protection: meaning if the heater fell over it will shut of.

3. It heats up to 1500 Watts.

4. Electronic Thermostat.

5. 2 Heat Settings: meaning you can set it at 1200 watts or 1500 watts.

6. LCD digital controls: meaning you can set your heater on what ever degrees you wish, Example 65 degrees to 90 degrees.

CONS: I only have one con which is ,it is a little to loud, not to loud that you can't sleep.

I would recommend this heater for anybody who want to keep warm in the winter time.

propane puts out 10x the heat. You have to stand right under it to feel a difference.

I'm 5'3 and when this is on full blast (both rings are turned on) I can barely feel anything. My husband who is 6'0 can feel the heat but only when he is standing right under it. All in all don't get this if you actually want it to keep you warm like a propane heater. The ups are that we dont have an outdoor light and this fell into the same price range as an outdoor lamp (actually cheaper). Its not super bright but gives off a nice glow so we can see (similar to candle light) outside at night and not be in the dark. It also doesn't need to be filled like a gas patio heater and it won't violate some fire codes (NYC you can't have any gas grills, heaters etc) but it certainly won't ease the cold.

Pros: Reasonably priced out door light, doesn't use a lot of energy

Cons: Barely gives off any heat at full blast

Best Green Product to come out if you like the outdoors.

Instead of burining propane, this electrical outdoor heater that looks like a propane heater saves money, saves the enviroment, saves a headache of running out of propane and having to run to the store, and keeps you outside longer.

Also fits in my unbrella hole so you get 360 degrees of heat. Not as powerful as a propane heater, which I often find to be too powerful,

but perfect for the 45-60 degree night to sit on the deck.Soleus Air HP1-15-50 Reflective Indoor/Outdoor Patio Heater

This is my first fire pit. I bought this particular model after reviewing more than 100 others for a handful of reasons listed under PRO below, and the product delivered well on every expectation.

PRO:

====

1. It's a large diameter model. I need it big enough to hold whatever firewood I can buy locally, and this model handles it all well. I don't have to chop normal firewood into littler pieces.

2. It's a deep model. Those little pan models are out of the question. This model holds several pieces of wood and all the newspaper I care to ball up underneath. When I'm ready to light it, a single match takes care of everything for the first couple hours. Instead of giving the fire my constant attention, I can enjoy my family and guests.

3. There's a wonderful flat surface ringing the pit, and it's tall enough to be useful. The ring stays cool, perfect for plates and drinks. We particularly like keeping mugs of hot chocolate on the ring as we settle around the fire after dark, having eaten dinner there when it was light out. We also bought marshmallow roasting sticks that work beautifully with this fire pit.

4. The diamond mesh allows superior air flow. A fire cannot thrive without air, and this pit provides far more than other models. I could wish that the pan's bottom allowed air also, but that would allow debris (and hot coals) to fall through.

5. The mesh lid is solid and effective. I have no worries about safety when the lid is in place.

6. The entire unit is solid. Some friends have a more rickety model. This fire pit's legs are sturdily attached, but their real stability comes from their wide base.

7. Absolutely zero maintenance is required after initial assumbly. Just park this fire pit in your back yard and pull up a few of those soccer-mom sideline chairs. The firewood itself requires a bit of attention of course, but there's nothing to turn or tighten on the fire pit itself.

8. It comes with a cover! That's something you definitely want, and this model saves you that expense. My cover lasted until the lawnmowing service started a few months later, but I expect that any cover of any quality would not have survived that weed-eater treatment. Shame on me for leaving the fire pit in my suburban backyard grass instead of building a patio or laying out some bricks.

CON:

====

1. Assembly was a bit more difficult than I expected, but not bad really. All the parts are black, so it's hard even to see the holes and alignments. The metal edges aren't sharp exactly, but neither are they smooth and comfortable like rolled edges. The instructinos are clearly written in real English. But legs were attachable curving inward instead of outward, and the big ring was attachable upside-down. I could imagine v2.0 of this model ensuring that parts can only be assembled correctly. This one minor point almost gave this product less than a perfect score, but ultimately the finished product is what I rated not the assembly.

2. After six months of occasional use, the wire mesh lid looks a little burned in one place. I expect that the fire got too hot once, and that a steel wire brush would make it look new again. But I'm still in zero-maintenance mode, and I care far more about the function than continuing the like-new look.

Overall Summary: It's bigger than it looks, and quite solid. The size allows pre-building a long-lasting fire, and the mesh allows air to feed that fire so you don't need to tend it constantly. The wide, flat ring surface makes the whole unit more functional.

The product itself is actually really nice. Pretty much it's the main bowl that sits in the frame with the legs so that when you have the firepit going the main bowl is hot but the outer metal stay cool.

The problem I had with the product was that one of the legs was broken out of the box and the mesh cover was dented. I guess thankfully I have a lot of patients and am in no hurry; I called the company to request replacement for these parts under warranty. Now some may go crazy considering how long it's taking for these parts to arrive. (Around a month) but that's because they need to ship the part from China to their HQ in the US and then ship it to you. Best part is the request stays in the their records, I've dealt with so many other companies and half the time the ticket number would just magically disappear *cough HTC cough*. They even personally called me up to give me the status of the part and to give me the situation of the part.

Best Deals on CobraCo FB8008 Diamond Mesh Fire Pit with Screen and Cover

Be aware that if any parts are missing you will be asked to ship the whole fire pit to Woodstream for replacement. I was missing the screen handle and bolt and they told me to ship the whole fire pit back to them for replacement. Sorry, I did not stay on the call long enough to find out if the shipping would be at my cost or theirs.

In my opinion this is pretty poor customer service for a minor part. There are a lot of other choices, I plan to avoid this company in the future.

Honest reviews on CobraCo FB8008 Diamond Mesh Fire Pit with Screen and Cover

Very good movable fire pit. We recently remodeled the back patio and wanted a small fire pit to relax around during the evening. The CobraCo FB8008 had good reviews and was the right size for our area. It was very easy to assemble, but I was a little disappointed with the engineering of the surrounding ledge. The 4 sections do connect at the support legs which leads to a slightly uneven ledge. Also, the handle for the fire screen is attached with a single screw. I can see this being a problem in the future. The rest of the fire pit appears very solid. We have used it several times in the three weeks we have had this, with our favorite activity being toasting marshmallows to make s'mores! It truly has been a wonderful addition to our patio.

We purchased this fire pit to accommodate our family of seven. It is the perfect size. Assembly was not difficult at all. The tools are already provided. Several screws and washers. You must be careful not to lose any as they didn't include any extras. I assembled this by myself in about 15 minutes. Not bad for me! My husband was surprised I had it put together before he even had a chance to look it over. It is VERY nice and sturdy. Thinking this will last us quite a long time! We are very happy with this purchase!

Zojirushi CD-LCC50 Instant Hot Water Dispensers - Black
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I bought one of these for work. It lives in an office breakroom and gets plenty of use. In this environment, you want the biggest one you can get, or the easiest to refill. 5L is a win. Ease of refill on this unit is so-so if your spigot or whatever can't clear its tall height. It boils, gets to temp, and maintains temp just great. The lid removes for easier fill. Easy to tell how full/empty it is. I like the magnetic power coupling a lot. Has settings for 208, 195, and 175 deg F enough flexibility, although the 175 is a touch hot for green tea. Weakness: the "timer" has only one setting: "off now, and then turn on (to stay) 7 hours from now." This timer is essentially a not-very-funny joke. There is no real time clock, no auto-on, no auto-off. Uses about 50W to keep water hot (the 4L CV-DSC40 is better insulated but more expensive). Has a handle for carrying (even hot & full) and has a built-in turntable underneath. Unit is completely satisfactory and good enough to make me want a better. Also won't go back to traditional kettle.

After reading reviews on several products by Zojirushi as well as other companies, I sought out this particular model as having a particularly large capacity. The viewing window on the side is as simple as it gets for knowing when to fill it up, and it goes from five liters of tap-chilly water to near-boiling in a matter of minutes. The three temperatures are perfect for different applications -208F for black tea, hot chocolate, instant coffee, and filling pots for quick, lazy pasta; 195F for red teas and hardy green teas; and 175F for delicate greens, whites, and most herbals. It's also great for cleaning in the kitchen a bit of nearly boiling water on a paper towel makes stuck on eggs and ground-in floor grime come right up.

Visually, this is a compact, attractive product that can sit right on your counter with your coffee maker and toaster oven. The exterior cleans up easily with a little soap and water, and the cleaning packets that Zojirushi makes get out the built up calcium deposits from hard water simple as pressing a button. Also, unlike many, similar models, this hot water pot has button, rather than pump dispensing, so there are fewer moving parts to break down or catch grease in a kitchen.

My only slight quibble is that the "sleep" mode lasts seven hours, with no ability to program it to be longer or shorter, but it's always nice to wake up to fresh coffee, tea, and oatmeal in the morning.

I have this water dispenser for around 4 years. It simply works.

But I recently measured the energy consumption of it using Kill-A-Watt.

It runs on 830 Watt when it boils water and 87 Watt when it keeps the water warm.

This can be costly if you already reach the so-called Tier-3 electricity usage zone (30%-200% of baseline quantity).

My husband and I bought this water dispenser and we are so happy with it, that we are buying another one. We use ours multiple times a day. If you are a tea drinker or like hot water on hand all the time, THIS IS the hot water dispenser for you. You can hold water temp at 175, 195 or 205, also you can add small amounts of cold water to bring the temperature down for even more fragile green teas. Water boils fairly quickly after filling no complaints from me. We had a 3 L boiler at one time but found we had to fill it to often and much prefer the 5 L model :)

I bought four of these and am extremely happy with light performance. They are easy to install and give off great light (you do have to be able to run gas lines though). I did not open the light boxes till after I had them on site, out of country. Mistake on my part. Three of the preformed mantels were trashed out of the four, and one of the glass globes was broken. Since I planned on using the tie on mantels anyway, could care less about the preformed. I'm still going to buy a couple more of these lights.

Well, bought this to replace the original lamp in the 71 Shasta Compact I am rebuilding. The fit is almost identical to the original light in the trailer. The lamp housing is of good quality and the gas valve works nicely. Best of all, they are available!

Best Deals on Mr. Heater Base Camp Gas Light

We purchased the first of these gaslights for use in a remote cabin with no electrical service. For several years, we used wick-type oil lamps and enjoyed the pleasant yellow-band light. But oil lamps require adjustment, trimming, cleaning, and refilling. So about a fat year ago, we tried one of these propane gaslights. It was plumbed through the wall to an eighteen pound propane canister set in a small enclosure outside the cabin wall. A 1/4" copper tube connects to the lamp through the wall. The lamp lights easily and provides about the same light as a sixty watt electric bulb. The control is basically, ON-OFF, without much effective modulation. The rigid mantles seem to work and last as expected, tho' the manual suggests they are less bright than the traditional tie-on type. The color of the light is amber (similar to the oil lamps), and is bright enough to read small print from an adjacent chair. Propane use appears to be very economical as the original eighteen pound bottle is still in use, although it now serves three of these lights. We use the lamps for a couple of hours about two to three times a week. The lamps light and operate in very cold outside temperature (i.e. 10F)The gaslight produces a fair bit of "exhaust" heat so care must be taken to isolate anything flammable...and to provide fresh air ventilation. With three gaslights going, the Smart Bear cracks a couple windows to replace depleted oxygen, or plan to doze off sooner and longer than expected..

Honest reviews on Mr. Heater Base Camp Gas Light

Preformed mantles are fragile and always arrive broken. They do include a different nozzle that uses tie on mantles which is what I used and the tie on is included with the lamp. No biggy really, just tie one on and light it up. Would have been nice to use the preformed but not a deal breaker.

I haven't installed this Mr Heater brand

but have the Paulin and Humphrey

which were the companies that made this

light before. They're awesome lights. I have

them in a cabin at 5600 feet elevation as

my only source of light. We have no electricity.

They put out close to the same as a 100 watt

bulb. They're quiet and very fuel efficient. I

like the tie on mantle better than the preformed.

It brighter and cheaper to replace.

I purchased this 220 volt heater 5 years ago (Jan. 2008). It works great. I have used it a lot without any problems. I use it (wall mounted) to heat a 750 sq. ft. insulated shop area with a 12' ceiling. In my cold soaked shop at 41°F, it will raise the room temp.10°-12° in the first hour. It is relatively quiet, not annoying. A temperature controlled switch turns the fan motor off below approx.50°F. So, at ambient temperatures below 50°, the fan will cycle on and off until the room temp reaches about 48-50°F. When the heat reaches the desired temp, the fan and heater shut off. When the heater is turned off, the fan runs for a minute or two until it cools down. All in all, it is a great heater for this type of application.

Less desirable characteristics: 1. The temperature control knob is a series of dots in between "low "& "hi". You don't any idea of what temperature you're actually dialing in until you've had quite a bit of experience operating it. 2. The installation instructions are vague. I had to search around on the internet to find instructions on how to wire it.
