Great Fan, not hot enough to set anything on fire, but really helps keep the room warm. Note: Does Not automatically oscillateBest Deals on Holmes HFH-5656-U Power Heater Fan
Holmes HFH-5656-U Power Heater Fan I purchased this heater to help keep our tent warm during a weekend campout, where the overnight temperature was to be below 20 degrees. I used it for a 3-man tent and it provided outstanding performance. The tent stayed warm throughout the night.Honest reviews on Holmes HFH-5656-U Power Heater Fan
I bought this one a long time ago. Maybe there are better heaters out there but this one does the job, and it does not get so hot that you end up burning yourself when you touch it, yet it heats a small room fine. Here are the pluses and minuses:Positives:
+ Reasonably priced
+ Can keep a bedroom plenty hot
+ The exhaust grill stays cool. I feel safe with it around my 3 year old, and felt safe with it around him when he was 2 (even let him play with it)
Negatives:
The one-button interface is a bit irritating. You need to push it a bunch of times to hit the temperature you need.
The thermostat is not very accurate, it's probably off by as much as ten degrees. I keep it on "80", when I really want 70. Sometimes when I want it hotter, I put it on "High", but that means that it stays on and never shuts off, and I end up overheated. I wish it had a setting for "90", so that I could get it to heat the room to 75.
I will probably buy a second unit, and would not feel bad recommending this to someone else. I bought several other space heaters that were more expensive, cheaper, more feature rich, etc., and ended up returning them in frustration because they all shared the common problem of burning whoever touched the grill. Having gone through so many others looking for a replacement, I have a greater appreciation for this little guy.
