This is my second Mr Heater Double for a different garage and was an easy choice when i needed a heater.

Just quicly attach it to the top of any standard propane tank (I use 30lb tanks to go longer between refills)

connect the hose (Reminder reverse threads on propane hoses), open the valve, depress and hold the button while you light it, hold the button for 5-10 seconds and that's it.

The heater really starts putting out the heat right away and I'm able to take my 2 car garage (insulated) from roughly 40 degrees F to about 55-60 degrees F in around 30-60 minutes.

My recommendation is if your looking for a garage or outbuilding heater this will be your simpilist, most portable, highest heat output choice.

Heats as it should! Only thing is the ignite r has a problem lighting the burner every time, solution is to place a thumb over the air draw hole while depressing the thermal gas valve plunger, lights right up when this is done.

I got this to help move the air conditioning around the hours. It moves air ok with the two fans and i like the way it has different positions for each fan but the fans themselves are a little weak. Its a good product but I would wait for it to come down a little from the $50+ i paid for it.

May have been a good fan, but it arrived broken. I was not happy, but Amazon's return policy was great. Got a sticker for free and had it picked up at my home, no problem at all. I bought a new one which arrived in good condition and works great.

Bought this heater back in Dec. (from another store) to heat up a fairly large living room. The unit was a little smaller than I thought in would be once I took it out of the box, but I still thought it might do the job. I like the basic design of the unit with the curve blower at the top and it does blow a fair amount of hot air. However, I didn't feel that the air that was blowing out of it was all that hot. I have a smaller "personal" unit that seems a lot hotter. So, unfortunetly it didn't really heat the room up. I could only get the room temp to increase by 2-4 degrees no matter how long the unit was on for. It worked better as a personal heater in the room, but that's not what I bought it for. I do feel that this unit would work better in a smaller room like a bedroom, especially when you close the room up. You could have a nice toasty room in about an hour. The fan isn't to loud but it might be a little more noticable in a smaller room.

Bottom line, it's a great unit but it didn't really meet my needs in this case. Although it didn't really work for me, I think it would work great in a smaller enclosed area. I ended up returning the unit and then purchased the Optimus H-5300. Although this is a Quartz heater with no fan, it's a bigger unit and is by far, hotter. It takes a little longer to heat up the room (not much), but I can increase the room temp by 4-8 degrees.

I brought this heater home, plugged it in, and it ran on the high setting for about 5 minutes, constantly switching between low and high. Then, it shut off, and it would not turn back on. I unplugged it and let it cool for an hour or so, and ran it on the low setting this time. It stayed on, but was constantly switching on and off, and did not give off enough heat to heat a bathroom, much less a large room. I returned the heater and got another just like it. This one ran slightly better, but again shut off after 5-10 minutes and would not power back up. This thing is of no value. You'd have more success heating a room with your computer.

This heater will heat up a room in a fair amount of time and keep it warm even if you have it on the lowest setting. This heater does not get hot or anything if you use it although the cord may get hot after a while.

I got this heater half price for $35 at Target a few days ago and yesterday it broke on me. I only used it for a brief amount of time each day just to heat up the room for approximately 3 days and it broke. The power indicator would light up but the control panel would not work no matter how I pushed it. It would occasionally come on and off flickering on and off. Basically I think the control panel area is defective so I will be bringing it back and getting a better model.

Overall: Good price, nice heat, bad build quality. Sort of loud on high setting.

Honest reviews on Honeywell EnergySmart Thermawave Ceramic Heater, HZ-860



Only things I wish it has a 3-prong plug with GFCI safety built-in, better sensor, and air filter. Also, I am not sure how good it is as a heater: the air it blows out doesn't seem to be hot enough to heat up a 20x20 room, at least not quick enough. I guess three Envi Heaters of 475 watts or four Econo-Heater running simultaneously would do a better job than just one of this 1500 watt heater. We'll see.

Nothing is more uncomfortable than a bed of nails. Second might be a waterbed whose heater has died. This heater did the job of replacing my dead one. It was relatively easy to install (one must drain the water first, of course), easy to set, and has maintained a constant temperature. The digital display is especially nice.

This is a very nice waterbed heater but it does say you might need to heaters if your matteress has a lot of fiber fill luckily my mattress isn't one of those so it heats the bed just fine or the amps it uses. Would have been good to know in the beginning when ordering though.

I ordered it, it got here in the time that was said. The product works well. This is the first touch temp heater I've used and it is so very nice to get the exact temp I want. It is definitely worth it.

Honest reviews on Touch Temp Digital Dial Heater

I love this waterbed heater. It works great!

I previously had a 30 year old heater that I broke on accident but it didn't obviously have the digital temperature.

The digital temperature is a great way to increase/decrease your temp and it also has a long enough cord to tuck away in a place were it can't be seen!

I love this heater and highly recommend it to anyone out there

We've had this heater for about a month. It initially took about a day and a half to get up to temp. It has warmed the whole bed and seems to be working just fine. We thought since it is a digital display that it would be able to tell us the current temp as well as the temp it is set too, but it just flashes if the temp is different then what it is set too. I suppose that really only would have been nice to know when it was first heating ans in theory it should be pretty close to the set temp the rest of the time.

This stove burns cleanly with no propane smell residue. Relatively easy to assemble. I had to get some aftermarket screws to mount the fake logs correctly, but a minor issue for a stove that functions so well when assembled.

Excellent for our home in San Antonio, Texas and cabin at the ranch. In Valverde County, Texas, many ranches burned down, ours too. Need to buy another propane heater for another cabin built at the ranch. This style is hard to find. Have a natural gas heater, same style, at home for years and enjoy it in our den also. The hidden controls are great for the grandchildren, they can't find them. The design is so unique so that we don't have to put it away during the summer season. Kudos to the designer.

I was pleasantly surprised at what a good job this little steamer does for the price. I've used it to remove set-in wrinkles from new clothing and to freshen up items taken out of the closet. I also used it to remove dents in my carpet from furniture. Pretty good product. My only complaint is that it doesn't hold very much water, but I was still able to steam about 3 garments before re-filling. Would recommend it for small jobs.

A great product; I took it with me on a trip to make sure my clothes looked good after being crush-packed on a motorcycle. It did the job beautifully and I highly recommend it to Amazon users. JUST REMEMBER, as at least one reviewer did not, this is NOT an IRON! It's a STEAMER and is meant to be used with the clothing hanging from a hanger!

This is too small to be anything other than a hand steamer for wrinkled clothes when one is traveling. At that, it spits out water when it's heated. It should be advertised with that limit on it. It is much too small to use over straight fabrics like bedspreads, linen, bedskirts, which is why I purchased it. I wish I had not purchased it. Deluxe Fabric Steamer it is not.

Optimus H-5280 31-Inch Oscillating Quartz Radiant Tower Heater Review

Optimus H-5280 31-Inch Oscillating Quartz Radiant Tower Heater
Customer Ratings: 2.5 stars

Winter only happens once a year and is separated by many months that dull the memories of the bad heaters you bought in winters past. For the winter season of 2010/2011, I purchased two different Optimus heaters for my house, the H-7328 and the H-7318.

I bought both units at the same time in October, so they sat in their unopened boxes well past the time you could return them. When winter came I set my brand new heaters up. The 7318 rattled so bad I could barely hear myself think. And within days the 7328 stopped oscillating and started to smell like burnt wiring. By February neither unit functioned, both thermostats apparently didn't work anymore so the unit that would actually provide heat would stay on forever, even if the unit fell face down on the carpet. YIKES, talk about dangerous.

So in March when I went to throw these units in the garage, on top of the pile of totally useless things I have bought in years past, I noticed something odd. I reached down and dug out three old heaters from the year before. Apparently I bought an Optimus H-5280, an H-3013 and an H-5230.

So in two years I have purchased no less than five Optimus heaters of which only one still works as advertised, which only goes to prove one thing, I AM A COMPLETE IDIOT, for ever buying an Optimus product. If they don't fail to work at all, then they stand a good chance of burning you alive while you sleep.

I've had this heater for a year and a half and haven't had any problems with it till

one day I knocked it over. The thin glass heating element doesn't have any support except

for the top and bottom. I knocked it over and the element broke in the center.

I would have been good for the manufacture to add a couple supports along the length

of the element to support it. Buying a new tube is out of the question. Manufacture

wants you to ship it to them for repair. It's cheaper to buy a new heater.

I recently bought this heater for the purpose of warming my study which can get quite drafty in these winter months. I usually get by with just a coat and a glass of wine or two but my wife insisted I try to purchase something to keep me warmer as I am getting older and my breathing has been labored as of late. By the by I decided to purchase this heater based on its price and the virtues extolled by the maker. I must say I was not impressed, it has done little to heat the interiour of my study, this foolish device just sits in the middle of the floor and buzzes. The room has not heated at all and it seems it would get warmer if I would just burn the thing. All is not a complete waste though because it does make an interesting conversation piece when I invite fellows into my study to chat due to its futuristic look and flashy lighting. If only it worked better. Oh well

Very happy with the purchase. Can't find anything wrong with it. The quality is superb because it's powerful yet quite even in the oscillating mode. Really want to thank the seller for shipping the item to Guam at a such reasonable rate. Will buy more from the seller in the future.

Don't waste your time or money on this poorly designed and manufactured piece of junk. It arrived from the factory with the frame bent due to poor installation of screws. The paint was chipped. It's noisy when oscillating, and has only one radiating element.

Overseas Use Only Windchaser MH-500 220 Volt 50HZ Portable Space heater
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

I carry a 220V space heater in my luggage on some trips. The features I desire are: compact, light weight, and a low power setting. I previously had a dual setting unit with a 700 watt option. This was plenty of heat, but I was a little concerned about the risk of fire owing to the fairly high temperature of the air stream. Also, it was rather bulky and heavy and nevertheless not so well built. Eventually it failed spectacularly with a shower of sparks as it welded some parts inside the unit. (Just to be double clear I'm talking there about the other brand that I'm replacing, not about this one.)

This Windchaser unit is as compact and light weight as one could hope for. It is well built. It has only one setting 500 watts. As other reviews point out, this is not a lot of heat. However, I tried it on a cold fall night in a small, unheated Paris room and I was satisfied with it. I was also pleased that the air stream is not scorching hot I guess because the amount of air pushed through is large. It is quiet, but not silent, making a gentle white sound noise.

So my 5-star rating of the unit is based on my fairly specific wishes. It would not be suitable in a use where highest heat output was crucial.
