Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I obtained this product to use in the area of my flat where I keep my computer. Since office buildings often are extremely over-heated in winter, the heat which it produces should be suited to those who tend to become chilled easily. I tried it in October, well before the season when I'd be placing my thermostat at the 65 where it remains all winter, and found it produces only minimal heat. Whether it will get me through the winter chill I cannot say.

It does have some drawbacks. It's compact size and cord holder are definite 'pluses,' and it is energy efficient. However, the directions cautioned against placing it on a desk or tabletop, and instructed that it should be three feet from furniture and fabrics. I was unable to feel much heat from a distance of three feet, and I also would question whether many people would have enough space to keep such an appliance that distance in open space.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The Bionaire Office Heater is really well designed for its purpose: to heat your immediate workspace. It's reasonably quiet, which is really important in this context, and it emanates a good amount of heat to keep you comfortable when there's a chill. It's a very basic device: no thermostat, no oscillation/rotation.

Having the motion sensor is also a very good feature. The office or plant manager doesn't like it when employees waste electricity by leaving a heater going all day. This one turns off itself when there's no motion nearby after about 15 minutes.

Right now my wife is using it at her desk in school (she's a teacher). When winter is over, we're planning to use it in the bathroom in our little, unheated spring/summer/fall cottage where nights and mornings are cool all year round. I'll update this if I actually do get to try it out in that setting.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is a small compact heater which is meant to give you a little bit of heat when your feet are freezing or your hands need a quick warm up. It is not a heater that you would use to really warm up a room. It is what I call the QUICK FIX heater. I acquired this for my wife, who is constantly cold in the winter time in her office. She simply placed it on the floor under her desk and it gave her enough heat to stop complaining about chills.... The motion sensor makes for this to be energy efficient...walk away for a while and it shuts down and does not waste electricity...which is exactly what you want in an office environment. Its not there to heat a room...but to give you some extra heat...so why have it running when you aren't there.

Excellent product to get rid of that winter chill and frozen feet/hands. 5/5 for us.

Honest reviews on Bionaire BCH4562E-GM Office Heater with Worry Free Motion Sensor

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This heater is designed to keep your immediate desk area warm and it does just that. I tested it out at work when our temperature dipped down this winter. I rested the heater on my desk (even though it says not to, I just made sure it didn't get too hot) and aimed it towards me like I do with my personal fan during the summer. I liked that it has a motion sensor and turns off if there is no movement for 15 minutes. I also like that you can change it between low, high and motion sensor.

While this heater does not rotate, have a temperature setting or heat a large area; it does what it is designed to do. In my opinion it is a little overpriced and you could buy another heater cheaper that would do the same thing. If you are going to buy it; I would recommend it for an office, bathroom or possibly even a small bedroom.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This heater works as advertised. It is sold as an office heater, but if you have a large office, it may not be effective. I placed mine under my desk in my home office to warm my tootsies and it works great. It throws a nice amount of steady heat and the fan is not overly loud as to cause a distraction. There are two settings, high and low.

The sensor automatically turns the unit off when you leave the room for a length of time, or, it can be turned off completely. The sensor is a great safety feature and energy saver, as well. Another neat feature is that the cord can be hidden by wrapping it around a hidden pedestal on the bottom of the unit. The unit is fairly small and compact, which allows you to set it on your desk instead of the floor.

All in all, this portable heater is a charm. The only negative is that when you first start using it, you have to suffer through the smelly new plastic odor until the unit is broken in and used for a while. Recommended.
