Heat, if that's what you want, this heater will give it to you. Before I tell you what's good about this heater, let me tell you why I only gave it 4 stars. The reason: This heater doesn't have a thermostat. It is a completely manual turn on and off unit. It does have a timer, but I still haven't figured out when to use the timer other then putting it in a room and leaving the room knowing it will shut off when it reaches the time I set. Other than that I can't think of another reason except maybe when you go to sleep it will shut off, but it will get cold if it shuts off and you'll have to get up or use the remote to turn it back on. Either way, it's not a big deal. This heater is well worth the money. It has a gorgeous dish with diamond cuts throughout the inside and when it's on, wow, the look alone is worth the money. It also warms you like the sun. We have a fairly large media room and this heater makes us quite comfortable. We don't even have to put the main house heat on. Now keep in mind that this isn't a whole house heater, but a rather good room heater. It has a telescoping pole (I wish it would go up a little higher) so you can raise the heater and this comes in very handy. The 2 heat settings are low and high. High is only 1000 watts and low is 800 watts. Both are very economical. Those 1500 and 1800 watt heaters are very passe'. We leave it on low most of the time. It really does generate lots of beautiful, warm sun like heat. It has a very good tip-over switch which shuts the heater off if it is tipped over or bumbed hard. There is no hesitation in shutting it off, it's instant and that's a good thing. The entire body except the front grill is made of plastic so it's easy to move around. The front grill is metal. The heater also can oscillate. The remote controls the timer (up to 7 1/2 hours), temp. control, oscillating and on-off.
My only question mark is "will it last"? Only time will tell, but if you need some heat now, I absolutely recommend it. The cold can be bitter, but this heater will put a smile on your face. Don't be cold. Listen to Doctor R. I know about being hot, warm and cold and I'd rather be warm or hot and this heater will keep you warm...

I only had this heater about 3 days when, after having been on for 4 hours (not an excessive amount of time), it started shooting sparks out of its back. I was in bed falling asleep, and don't want to think about what would have happened had I slept through it.
