Great Company to work with! Received the new Heater and Thermostat Assembly for my Maytag Side by Side Refrigerator, and both the freezer and the refrigerator are working just fine once again. Easy DIY replacement for anyone Just too bad that Maytag made such terrible products which require ongoing fixing.

Purchased this heater at a local discount store. Its heat output, at a given setting, is unpredictable. It also takes a long, long time to warm up. This "deal" was not a deal. Hold on to your $, and shop for a better unit.

I just bought this a few days ago because my bedroom has massive windows that are hard to insulate, a cold front just swept in, and I walked to my place on Friday and my bedroom was 62 degrees. My roommates aren't here enough for me to throw money at our thermostat.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

I actually was underwhelmed when I first turned on the unit. Hot air slowly raises from its grate. It doesn't blow out sideways like you'd think. So, the first night, I placed it on the floor and used my laptop at the edge of the bed so the low velocity hot air would actually hit me directly. I was going to take it back the next day.

But after an hour or so, the room warmed up from 64 degrees to 72. When I left my bedroom to get a drink, the frigid air from the rest of my house greeted me as I opened my bedroom door and I ran to the refrigerator to get a water bottle before running back to the warmth of my room. At that point, I realized this product was perfectly fine, I just expected something that was more direct.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT IS FOR:

This product is something you turn on in an enclosed room to gradually heat it. That it has a thermostat setting indicates this, as it will turn off when the room reaches a certain temperature (you can set it 65 to 80 degrees or just "Always On").

This is *not* something you turn on and sit in front of when you're cold. For this purpose, you might want a radiant heater or a ceramic/fan heater that shoots the air out with more of a velocity. This product lets the hot air ooze out of it because it heats the room through convection.

I actually give it 4/5 stars instead of 5/5 because it doesn't do a good job explaining its purpose on the box. The 180/360 degree marketing stuff is just misleading and the feature of being able to close half of the grate is just a gimmick since this product is terrible if you buy it as something to place next to your rocking chair.

PROS:

Super light. Move it from room to room. Take it to the bathroom with you. Take it to your girlfriend's house. No big deal. Try doing that with a heavy portable oil-filled radiator.

Looks great. Just a black minimal tower and I like contemporary aesthetics.

Comes with a remote control which makes sense since this is something you could place in the corner of the room and it still works.

Quiet but definitely audible. I like the breathy low velocity sound of this heater, but if you want 100% quiet, go with a radiator.

Comes with a timer on it (1, 2, 4, 8 hours)

Works.

CONS:

The whole 180/360 grate cover is a gimmick. I just leave half the grate covered as it faces my bed, but it's more of a mental thing since I won't feel the heat until the general temperature of the room rises anyways.

Air slowly rises from it. You can't feel heat with your hand half a foot away from it at grate level. You'd have to move your hand away from the device up at about 45 degrees to follow the heat. This isn't really a con since this device isn't a spot/fan-forced heater, but I'm trying to make this point clear.

This heater works great! My bedroom is 13x11 and our furnace broke this last winter (Detroit, Michigan area) so it got pretty cold, and this heater worked very well. Needed one with a remote if I got hot at night so I would not have to get up and mess with anything, just one click on the remote and it would be off. Kept me very warm on many 10° to 20° nights here in Michigan. I would buy it again. Just as a tip, the heat that comes out of it comes out at a 45 degree angle upward, not like straight out. Meaning, you should probably set the heater on top of the box it came in to elevate it and get better heat spread like I did. (Just a personal note, I do not use the "360 mode" I don't think it works as well, but the "180 mode" works flawlessly!)

The remote lets your turn it on, off, fan on high or low, and set the temp. Infra Red remote so you can point it in the general direction and it will work. (Expectantly at night, half asleep!)

I purchased this space heater thinking it would be a quality product since it is made by Honeywell. I could not have more wrong!! I am on my third unit and it is going back.

The first one wouldn't shut off when it reached the set temperature.

The second one clicked and clicked, made the lights flicker and seemed very unsafe. Used it twice.

The third one worked for a wee bit but then it started in like the others. It clicks and shuts itself off even when in the full on setting, or before the time selected is up, as soon as 5 minutes after turning it on.

When it did work it did a nice job of heating my 14x14 room. It can't handle a room larger than that though.

Save yourself a lot of trouble and buy some other heater. This one is horrible!!! I only gave it one star because I had to fill in one.

In all fairness I have to say this product still works as a heater, but it is overpriced and is really annoying to use. I would suggest you get the $20 Lasko ceramic heater which works much better and gives the same heat.

First of all the $60 price really doesn't give you much more feature than my $20 Lasko heater. If anything, this honeywell is just bigger, takes more space but doesn't give more heat (it has the same wattage: 900W and 1500W).

However the most annoying thing about the Honeywell heater is the digital control. It defaults to Hi heat and in order to change it to low you have to press the button 5 times, that's because they combined the Hi/Low settings with the thermostat settings. So the state goes from Hi, 65, 70, 75, 80, Low. I like the Low heat and I turn this thing on and off often, so it's really annoying that every time I want to use it have to push the power button, and then press the temperature settings 5 times just to get the Low heat settings. That's 6 times pushing the button! My lasko heater can do this with just one switch.

I didn't want to purchase a popcorn popper with a cart since I didn't have room for the cart. I was unable to find reviews for this particular popper until I reviewed the Paducah Popper machine sold with the cart--see: http://www.amazon.com/Paducah-Eight-Antique-Popcorn-Machine/product-reviews/B000UDXQO4/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1 --and boy am I glad I responded to the praises of this machine.

This machine is GREAT! It truly does its job incredibly well. A few years ago we'd purchased a smaller home popper that had something like a 2 oz kettle & found that we had to pop several batches to get the desired amount--and by the time we actually got to eat it, over 1/2 of the bowl had cold popcorn.

The Paducah Popper pops crisp, tasty popcorn quickly. We've found that we don't need to use butter to add flavor because the popcorn tastes great just popped in regular canola oil.

My husband loves this Christmas present & it makes a great addition to his man cave. Other poppers I considered had tacky decor that just didn't fit our taste. I HIGHLY recommend this popper!

First, let me say that this machine performs magnificently!! I tried their smaller version, the "Little Bambino", which had problems, but this one is GREAT.

The owner's manual states, "Add a suitable amount of butter or oil (Fig.1). While the amount is dependent upon your taste, please do not exceed 1/2 oz." (Based on the fact that they give you a measuring scoop rather than a scale, they apparently mean 1/8 of a cup (1 fl. oz.)and not 1 oz., which is 1/16 of a pound.)

The instructions on the door of the device states, "1 TBSP of oil for every 1/2 cup of popcorn". (For 1 cup of popcorn, this means 2 Tbs of oil, which is ONE fl. oz.)

Obviously you can't use 1 fl. oz. (as per the instruction on the door) without violating the first instruction's "do not exceed 1/2 oz."

So I emailed the manufacturer to find out which was right. The manufacturer (specifically, Randi, the Customer Service Manager) told me to use 1/3 the amount of oil as popcorn. That is, for one cup (8 fl. oz.) of popcorn, use 1/3 cup (~2.5 fl. oz.) of oil.

So now I have a choice. For one cup of popcorn, I can use either 1 fl. oz. or 2.5 fl. oz. of oil, but not more than 1 Tbs (1/2 fl. oz.).

They get 5 stars for the product but only 2 for the instructions and -3 for their ability to clear up the confusion.

This part is as described, and fit my old bbq regulator perfectly. However, the part I received is not the one pictured. The brass adapter is not as long as it appears, and the Acme nut is green. This does not affect the functionality so I am still giving it 5 stars. Cheap easy solution.

I bought this unit as a replacement for the nut assembly on my Mr. Heater extented hose I use for my elevated blind.. The original broke (after several years use) when I attempted to remove it during very fridged weather. This is a good replacement. The only reason I gave it a 4 star rating, rather than a five star, is the throw on the back side of the nut is shorter than shown...just a lenght of threaded pipe and no wrench lug. This was no problem, you simply use a ratchet head on the connection head lugs (inside the nut head) to tighten the unit to the regulator.

I bought these heaters about a month and a half ago. The fan on one of them stopped working and smelled like it was burning. Contacted seller on Amazon who said they only have a 30 day warranty through them but there is a 3 year warranty through the manufacturer. Contacted the manufacturer who told me they would send me out a new fan and I would need to install it myself. I replaced the fan that they sent me and the heater still did not work. The 3 year warranty is only for parts, they do not replace or fix the unit itself unless you pay to ship it to them and back. There is a reason they only sell these heaters online and not in stores. I'm now stuck with a useless piece of junk.

I researched these heaters for a month before we settled on this pair. I am very happy with our purchase. We have had them a month now and we have used them, sometimes both at the same time and sometimes, just one, most nights and all weekends. My heat bill went up $50 which would have happened with the furnace that rarely came on. The big plus, besides the reasonable cost to run is the level of warmth. I can now feel comfortable in sweats without having to layer up so much. Glad we bought the two pack!

Obviously, 5100 watts is 5100 wattsIf you are trying to heat a 1200 square foot barn you will not be happy regardless of product because of the porosity and massive heat loss at low temps. On the other hand, if you have a well-insulated 1200 square foot space these little heaters will be fabulous. They are easy to set up and easy to control with the handy remotes. Understand the settings before complaining about how they work. You are NOT reading room temperature. A separate accurate thermometer will give you that info. Well designed, easy to look at and use.

This fan is okay. It warms a cold, marble bathroom on a cold morning. I would expect that the fan would allow directional changes via a baffle but it does not. It was installed in an area of the bathroom ceiling that could accommodate it if the direction of the warming could be adjusted it would be all that much better. If only I had known to look for that as an option -don't know if I'd have found a product that could direct the heat. It was hard enough to find something that would just heat a medium sized bathroom.

I ordered this heater for my parents who were taking a 6 week trip to Europe. My mum LOVED it! None of the hotels she stayed in had a jug to heat water so she used it almost daily. It lasted her the whole trip for heating water for tea in the morning. It heated water super quick and it's tiny and easy to carry and comes with a neat wee drawstring bag to carry it in. She's still using it at work to heat her water for tea in the office. She highly recommends it. Thanks!

I've owned two of these. The first one I dropped and it stopped working. Ok, my fault. The second I heated 4 cups of water on an international trip (220 Volt) and was very careful with it, especially keeping the heating coil immersed while plugged into the electricity. I went to heat a 5th cup of water and guess what?....no longer working. I bought it especially for the international voltage feature. From my experience, I cannot recommend this product.

I read reviews that said it did not work and I still took my chances and ordered the water heater at ALSAMAUSA and hoped it will work for me but sure enough the water heater was dead on arrival. I used immersion heater before and I know how to follow instructions so that it was definitely DOA. I returned the item but wasted my money for shipping and return postage ($5.70+$5.41). The seller received my water heater few days ago and I'm still waiting for my refund. What a wast of time and money.

UPDATE: I filed A-to-z Guarantee claim to Amazon and they refunded the item price and shipping so that my loss was limited to the cost for the return shipping (postage + certified mail = $5.41).

Pro: Works on either 110 or 220 volts, without manually switching the heater.

Con: (Minor) 110 volt heating affords only 125 watts of heating power, bringing a large cup of cool water to a simmer in twelve to 14 minutes.

Pro: On 220 volts, other conditions the same as above, simmer is reached in about three minutes due to 500 watts heating power.

Pro: Solid construction, plug is not cheap, wire appeared well-insulated, but not unduly stiff.

Con: No cup cliff, although this is not a grievous error...

My unit quit working mid-tea cup heating, and I was dissatisfied because I thought I had only had it about six months. Amazon showed me that I received it about 25 months ago. Use was generally light, mainly onboard cruise ships, with both 110 and 220 volts used. Owned and used a bit over two years, but probably not over about 150 times, although the unit has likely traveled 50,000 miles and suffered a few light knocks, but no rough handling.

Performance and calendar service life = Five stars. Roughly 150 uses until failure = Three stars.

OVERALL: Four Stars. Will buy again.

I bought one of these heaters cheap from a local supermarket and was not expecting much for the price, but I was pleasantly surprised when I got it home and found that it was very quiet, in fact it's the quietest of any portable heater I own, and I have about 7 different types, including ceramic heater and standard fan driven ones like this one.

This heater has a nice design to it that allows it to stand upright or lie flat. The handle serves as a stand to allow air flow from the top and bottom intakes while in the lying flat mode. The fan is not the standard blade type, but it uses a squirrel cage design that makes it much quieter and even stronger than the standard fan blade heaters.

What also surprised me about this heater is that it cranks out more heat on LOW than any other heater I have on HIGH. Even on low if you keep your hand right a few inches from the grille, it will almost get too hot to keep your hand there for long, and that's on low. But it actually seems to draw less than other heaters on high. I've not hooked it up to an AMP meter or anything to really get accurate reading, but judging from the fact that other heater dim the lights more on high than this one does on low, I would say that it is drawing the rated 750 watts but somehow putting out a lot more heat. Maybe it's the design, the squirrel cage type fan over standard blades or something else. I'm not really sure, but all I know is that this thing can heat up a good size room in about 10-15 minutes and almost make you start to sweat where as other heaters have to be kept on high for 30 minutes or hours to even try to do the same job.

I went back to the store and I bought 4 more of these heaters I liked it so much. It's the best portable heater I've found yet and as mentioned, I've tried numerous different types. My only issue with it is that the thermostat on certain ones does tend to stay on a long time which can make the room get too hot. They all work, but some will stay on for 30 minutes or more before shutting off...then it won't come back on until the room has gotten quite cold. It's not a digital thermostat but seems to be a more basic type that activates when the metal alloy drops to a certain temperature, warps and closes the circuit turning the heater back on, so of course it's not going to be as accurate or consistent.

But again I've had other heaters with different and supposedly better thermostats do the same thing. So in this price range it's still the best one that I have found, especially considering that I got all of mine for under $9 each at my local store on sale, so I surely can't complain. I'm actually hoping that they get another supply in this year as I want to pick up a couple more as backup, but I used them every day for hours last winter and It was might cold here in the northeast last year and none of them failed at all. I have one on right now as I write this review and it's making me very warm so I'm about to turn it off.

The heater sounded good enough online. It's hard to find a squirrel cage fan forced heater these days. The advantage is that they are very quiet.

I sent this back the next day first of all the quality was cheap. Secondly, I never even got to test it since it was crushed and in multiple pieces.

The outer shipping box was in perfect condition but the product box inside was crushed as well as the heater. It all leads me to believe that the product was damaged before it was packed for shipping.

I had a little heater fan from DeLonghi (DFH132), and it was fine but a little weak. I tried out a few heater fans from Honeywell (HFH5555 [worked, but blew a fuse] and HEH8001-U [worked but more fan than heater]) but ended up returning them.

This little heater puts out a good bit of heat. It's sitting behind me right now, in the same spot the heater fan used to occupy, and it puts out much more heat. It's also about twice as loud, but that doesn't bother me. The grille on the front gets hot, but I haven't left my hand on it long enough to see if it will burn me. I can make only so many sacrifices for Amazon reviews...

I gave this heater 4 stars. Let me explain....

First, to be realistic about my pros and cons, I know I wasn't getting a top of the line model being that this heater was under thirty bucks. I only needed this to provide a little warmth boost in my 1-year old sons 14' x 12' room.

Pros:

-Pushes a lot of heat for being so small This was surprising. I have to keep the temp turned only about 1/3 of the way up with the lowest fan setting or else my son's room turns into a sauna.

-Very nice size it's not tiny, but it fits nicely on my son's chest of drawers along with an alarm clock and piggy bank.

-1 fan, 2 heat options there is a fan option(no heat), a low and high heat setting. I use the low and imagine that the high setting would push qhite a bit of heat.

-Thermostat very nice option for what I use it for, once you get it right (see cons). I keep it up about 1/3 of the way and it keeps the room at a semi-constant temp.

-Stays cool to the touch on perimeter if you put your hand directly in front of the heating element, it's hot (duh), the rest of it stays nice and cool. This was a major concern for me since it stays in a childs room and space heaters having such a bad safety rep.

-Sturdy I originally had it on the floor and moved it up on a dresser. Neither place was I afraid that it would tip over on it's own

-Overheat switch It's an option, but I gladly haven't had to see if it works

Cons:

-Slightly noisier than expected I expected a little noise since it is a little heater but this small fans puts out quite a bit of noise. It's not loud enough to wake my son when it kicks on during the night, but it is loud enough where I had to relocate the baby monitor because it was driving my wife and me crazy.

-Thermostat this was a pro for having the option alone. The con is that it took me about a week to get it to maintain an even temp exactly where I wanted it. One time it would be too hot, I make an adjustment, then too cold, repeat about 15 times, and it's just right.

If I could give 4 1/2 stars I would. My pros are definite pros, but the cons may be a little petty given the product. I think for a few more dollars DeLonghi could put in a digital thermostat and maybe a slighly quieter fan.

Overall, I highly recommend this.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi DCH1030 Safeheat 1500W Basic Ceramic Heater - Gray/Black

My wife and I bought 2 of these to give our utility budget a break this winter.

This heater puts out alot of heat. The On/Off/Heat Settings switch, along with the Thermostat switch, feel very solid for a ceramic heater this inexpensive. It has a handle so it's easily transportable. Power light goes off when the unit is turned off (unlike others in this price range). Can be turned off (Some other similarly priced heaters need to have you pull the plug for the heater to go off). If it gets too hot, it will shut itself off (Safety feature). It's not whisper quiet but it is certainly not overly loud, as some others have complained. It also has an anti-freeze setting, if that is why you need it.

For the money, I can't see how you can get a better deal on a ceramic heater. I checked out all the similarly priced ceramic heaters here on Amazon, and quite frankly the combination of features, efficient ceramic heating element, solid design and inexpensive price make this a "no-brainer" as far as inexpensive ceramic heaters go. Get 2 and give the gift of ceramic heating efficiency this Christmas. OOPS, politically incorrect. TOO BAD!!!

Moreover, I don't believe the "thermostat" works at all. The manual delusively says that the "thermostat" can be used to maintain the temperature. It is not true. I have to turn it on and off manually... However, it is cheap. For that reason, we probably should not have high expectation.

Tim Jones went above and beyond the call of duty getting the product out to us! We are EXTREMELY happy with what we received and would recommend them to others. Dollar for dollar I couldn't find a better deal when you combine the O2 packs and the bags!

This is my first go around at storing food this way so I have nothing to compare it to. For some reason I can see storing food this way as a little addicting. I'm already planning more projects.

I like the ease of the heater and it works very well. I thought I would "over heat" the seal but thats not the case. The heater itself is self explanitory as are the bags. Some folks use a clothing iron but this is more convenient and does a better job.

The oxy absorbers are packed 20 in a pouch. No issues there but as soon as you open them you have to work quickly. It's better to have 20 bags ready to go so you can pop the the little guys in there then seal them up. When it's done correctly, those absorbers are great.

All in all I'm happy with it. I can see the heater lasting for quite some time as long as I don't go cowboy crazy with it. It's a decent built quality all around but it's up to the user to take care of it. The bags are hefty but when sealed properly, then can be damaged easily. For example: I stored some pasta and one rouge piece was a little sharp. When stored in a 5 gallon bucket, that one piece damaged three other bags.

I will buy more bags but not another heater just because I won't have to.

I love this product. The only thing that I would suggest to a buyer is to also have a vacuum sealer. I suggest this because the oxygen absorbers that are not immediately being used need to be revacuumed sealed or they will be useless. Have the vacuum sealer and a bag out and ready to use for the ones that you are not using right then.

I installed this in the living room of my 5th wheel trailer. We rarely see temps below freezing, so this does a nice job of keeping my trailer toasty. The all steel construction is much better than the plastic De Longhi that it replaced. I have it wall mounted, so I can't comment on the wheels.

RV's do not have unlimited current available, so the ability to run this on 5, 10 or 15 amps is very useful.

Expensive, but worth it. The steel case can be opened, it therefore can be repaired.
