Reviews of RedCore 1500 Infrared Indoor Heater with Air Purifier and Humidifier

Customer Ratings:

Do not even consider buying this heater. It is terrible in so many ways. Online, this product looks to be sleek and modern looking, but when it arrived it looks like a hunk of tin from the 1970's. Second, the triple combo of purifier, humidifier, and heater sound good on paper but it was unable to handle the requests digitally. The purifier worked well, but the heater had a mind of its own. The digital thermostat was well below the actual temperature in the room, 5-8 degrees in fact. Then it would shut off at random times. The remote would not register the commands and had to be connected to the unit for it to work. When working the unit would make these sounds that could only be related to pennies in a dryer. Tried using it when sleeping, awful. If I had to buy this heater, I honestly would not pay more than $30 for it. Stay away; there is a reason why it is hard to find a 3-in-1 unit, maybe because it just isn't possible...

Got the 1500 model 26 OCT 2011. I have to read the instruction to make this work properly and it did. The quality is much better than my Holmes Quartz heater, infact I'll give it three & three-quarter stars for built quality. The heat is very good. I more than likely NOT gonna use this unit as a standalone Air Purifier and or Humidifier coz I have a standalone SHARP HEPA purifier and Humidifier that are "Library Quiet" that emits less than 30 Decibels fan noise. Set the red core 1500 on mid-size room at 78 Degrees F you might able to hear a very low fan hiss. Good thing that the fan speed adjust automatically as the temp is met. Time to retire my noisy Holmes Quartz Heater. Also I thought of the Amish fireplace look alike heaters, but I prefer the size of the Redcore 1500, its small enough and easy to move in any room in my house unlike those bulky amish heaters. Had I received a defective unit, I would have written something negative as well, fortunately I got a good working unit that I was able to test myself, I'll recommend it to friends, and will probably get a second unit.

An OK if overly complicated unit with usability issues. REVISED

I doubt that the first reviewer ever saw one, unless it was a different model or defective.

The Good:

Reasonably effective heater.

Fully adjustable thermostat.

Displays room temp +/-2 degrees accuracy.

Ultrasonic Humidifier adds about 3 to 4 percent humidity to a large room.

Air purifier seems to work well. REVISED see below

Controls are proximity not touch and should last.

Large fancy LCD display easy to read.

The bad:

Any momentary power glitch resets the unit to off. Not suitable for unattended operation as a result.

Controls are complicated and not as well documented as they could be.

The humidifier really wants distilled water. REVISED running one batch of tap water left it operating intermittently.

The ultrasonic humidifier ejects a plume of water vapor that can dampen stuff.

The controls are poorly marked and have odd interactions.

The controls are not illuminated so often hard to see

Air purifier is ineffective for pollen.

The ugly:

Because of the humidifier really needs to be elevated.

Controls are fussy, .

To use the air purifier you need to set the temperature then the offset time.

Timer is time to start not to turn off, It would be easy to have both.

Fan and humidifier aren't loud but not especially quiet.

Distilled water makes it expensive to operate.

Overall works so so but is unnecessarily fussy and suffers from phony reviews. As well as being relatively expensive.

Too loud. Does not work. If that changes I will let you know. Clunky and not worth the money. Don't buy something like this online.

...but it's more of a lovable early '80s ugly. Received this the day after I ordered it with standard shipping, on the 13th hottest day of the year. So far, everything is working as described. I'd purchased another brand with similar features last winter; that unit died within 24 hours, and a cheesy, '50s ugly fake fireplace displayed real flames after the second day, so at this point I'm easily satisfied. But -make no mistake, this has a thin hard plastic chassis, but make no mistake, all of these do, save for the wooden ones and the single metal unit I'm aware of. All of them are lined with metal; I don't know what protects the internal electronics from heat, but the instructions say if the filter is dirty the unit will operate very poorly. The main remote itself is quite impressive, rechargeable was an unnecessary and thoughtful bonus, and the main power switch is no-nonsense no-accidents heavy duty. While the previous unit was working, it spit out a whole lot of heat, more than I'd like (temp couldn't be set below 68f.) Theoretically these shouldn't be able to heat at all, as I read online infrared allegedly only heats water, and then only if directly in the path of the rays. So just be thankful this thing heats at all, and quit your complaining already. Defying internet physics -what more could you ask for at under $200?

And if you're afraid of guests complaining about how tinny it looks, do what I did: get a deeply discounted '60s ugly germ guardian from myquickby, guaranteed to divert attention from this cute little monstrosity.

In a word incredible. This item took about ninety minutes to assemble, from opening the box to removing the trash when finished. I should state that I have assembled many household items over the last twenty years. That greatly aided my ninety minutes completion time.

This is a beautiful piece of oak furniture. We purchased it to support a seventy inches, one hundred plus pounds television. The television extends about one inch beyond either side of the cabinet. It has excellent support for the weight of the television, showing no signs of bowing in the center of the top shelf.

The fire that is produced by the leds' is phenomenal. Simply stated, it appears real. There are five levels of brightness. Directions state the electric blower can warm a four hundred square foot {20x20} room. I doubted that. I no longer doubt it though. Of course it will not warm the area as quickly as your heater or heat pump, but it will get there and you will have to eventually reduce the heat setting.

Any body who gets this item will enjoy it. Shipping is fast also, not a long wait.

Despite the clear advisory, I missed the fact that the flame/heater insert was not included... My fault.

The piece is beautiful and fairly easy to assemble. Some holes did not line up quite right, so I had to do some drilling. Looks great with the fireplace insert and gives off a good amount of heat.

I purchased this fireplace to hold my 70 inch TV. It looks wonderful and the wood is darker than I thought but matches my coffee table perfectly. The flames look good with varying colors to look like real fire. Not sure about heat as it is summer and too soon to tell. Definitely hard to put together took a lot of hours and plan on having a drll with small drill bits to drill holes that are supposed to be there. The delivery was quick, the company called within a a day or two to set up delivery.

This is a nice piece of furniture, we had noticed some minor scratches in the bottom after we put the mantel together.

This piece also does not come with the fireplace, did not know that when ordering. I feel that this mantel was a little pricey, considering it does not come with the fireplace.

Good little stove. Looks very realistic and big enough not to be swallowed up by a large room and small enough for smaller spaces. Nice looking flame, puts out good heat. Would be five stars, but mechanism for flame has some mechanical noise, but it is not too obtrusive.

I shopped long and hard for purchasing an electric stove and totally love this one. The majority of them are too short but this one is taller so it looks better in a larger room. I would have given it 5 stars but sadly it only rates 4 stars because the directions for attaching the legs is lacking. Otherwise the stove is very well built and serves and looks great.

This fireplace has been a staple in my living room since I purchased it. The set up and instal was simple. The actual "fire" looks a lot better than anticipated. The heat that it puts out isn't too terrible great, but you shouldnt expect it to be with an electric fireplace. It works great for my living room, which is a medium size. It would be a great fit for an office or bedroom and the heat would be adequate.

The kids just love it and it is so easy to use. I also purchased the pre-packaged oil and popcorn packs and they are so easy! I was worried about how much work it would be to clean but it is a breeze with a warm soapy dish rag. We have a family of 4 and when the girls have friends over we pop up a batch...I wouldnt go smaller than the 8oz kettle or you would have to make several batches. It looks great in our family room! Shipping was super fast and the seller was awesome to deal with! I would highly recommend this product!

Seems like a great unit. Using it in a real one room 24x14 log cabin. So far haven't been able to (or needed to) turn it past level 2 or we start overheating! I think it'll be great when it gets really cold. Now I'll just have to monitor how much fuel it consumes so I don't run out.

3. It is easy to start.

I bought this unit used from a friend who no longer needed a propane heater. I originally bought the heater hoping to supplement the use of the inefficient forced air system in my 1,700 sq. ft. modular home. I was most surprised to find that it not only supplemented my existing heater but replaced it. I now heat the whole house with this one heater at half the cost of operation. AMAZING! If you have a large room to fill with even comfortable heat the Mr. Heater infrared is the way to go. I will soon be ordering a new (same unit) for my shop.

Living in the snow belt of NY state and using space heaters as the main source of heat in my home for the last few winters, I know a thing or two about them. I haven't been able to afford a heating oil delivery, so naturally, I turned to electric heat.

My first heater purchase was a highly rated $75 radiant heater which was alright, except it was pretty darn big, and the heat it provided seemed so-so for the price I paid. The next one was a $50 bionaire heater which was still rather large and so-so for the price I paid.

Being on a budget, my next two heaters were this particular one. I love how small they are, and it can get downright HOT, even on the coldest nights if you don't have it on medium/low. I had them running almost on a constant basis for 6 months, 2 years running, and this is the third year and have had no issues with them quitting on me. I did go and buy them from a physical store, so maybe bad handling was the case with others who had a problem with it.

Anyway, on the subject of electric bills, mine were pretty high. A winter of electric bills was pretty much equivalent to a winters worth of heating oil, but at least I didn't have to pay that in a lump sum, up front.

I needed a couple of new inexpensive space heaters so I decided to do a bake off between this LASKO 754200 and the HOLMES HFH111T.

Both have a single fan speed, and a choice of fan only, low heat, and high heat.

Both have a thermostat which will turn the unit off once the desired temperature is reached.

Both have internal over temperature protection which needs to be reset by unplugging the device and letting things cool down.

LASKO PLUS

The light is lit if the unit is plugged in so you know if it's plugged in by a look only. I want to leave space heaters unplugged when I'm not around and this makes it easy to tell.

Quieter than HOLMES: ~55DB vs the HOLMES 60DB

Seems more efficient at heating a given volume of air. Passing my hand in front of either unit at about 18 inches away with heat on high, my hand got rather hot with the LASKO which seemed to have good even hot air distribution over an arc +/-20 degrees of center, but the HOLMES air distribution seemed uneven with more air going to one side, and my hand never got uncomfortable.

HOLMES PLUS

Simpler packaging: no internal packaging.... LASKO had: 2 pieces of pressed formed cardboard, plastic wrapping and tape to recycle.

The light is lit once the switch is no longer in the OFF position, even if the thermostat has caused the fan to turn off. Thus you can look at the light to know that the heater *may* be on. With the LASKO you need to look at the switch to make sure it's going to stay off.

More sensitive thermostat. It takes only a 5 or 10 degree rotation to get the thermostat to go on or off, while the LASKO took about 30 degrees.

May very well move more air for the noise.

Tip over protection. It has a weight on a switch. If the unit leaves vertical by more then 60 degrees tipping front or back, the unit will shut off.

BOTTOM LINE

If no kids or cats I'd recommend LASKO. If tip over is a concern, the the HOLMES is an acceptable low cost solution.

The LASKO will go in my office where I will appreciate the quiet and the more direct heat, and the HOMES will in the bathroom where the noise and uneven direct heating is less of an issue.

This heater is not a bad heater if you don't mind the noise. We bought it for our baby's room and took it back next day. When the heater goes on it is just too noisy so our baby would wake up. It is cheap, it works but it is awful noisy.

I bought this heater 2 years ago. For my laundry room to keep my dog and her 10 puppies warm through the cold winter. Warmed the room within 10 mins and if kept on high it was too DARN HOT! Best thing about this heater if the pups ever knoked it over it shut off. After two years of having this heater it hasn't failed me yet. And it has been thrown knocked over and stomped on by my dogs. Very Harty heater does a great job! Of and my laundry room has a dog door and windows all around so not very insulated. I would run it 6 hours a day every day and didn't even see a change in the pge bill

First of all, I agree with prior reviewers that this unit is very noisy vs. other forced air space heaters.

The primary reason for my negative review, though, is that I think this unit is downright dangerous. I used this unit on the "low" setting for about 12 mos (used only in winter months). It worked fine. Today, for the first time, I used it on the high setting. It had been on for about one hour, when one of the internal supports for the heating coils collapsed. This caused the coils to collapse into the metal fan, which then caused a short. A huge flame shot out of the front of the unit and turned the plastic housing black. If I hadn't been sitting there to unplug it immediately who knows what might have happened. This unit has basically never been moved, so the weakness in the support is not due to operator misuse. It is likely a manufacturing and/or design issue.

Very poor design. It's cheap for a reason. Don't risk your safety for a few bucks.

My husband and I purchased two of these heaters at the start of the fall season. We live in a pretty big farm house so all the gusty cold wind just whips right over us from the fields. We also have oil heat and have spent nearly $2,000 a year in oil! We got these to help keep our oil use down and they work great! We had almost a full tank of oil delivered in October and now we're just at a little under 3/4 tank because of these heaters. We set our thermostat at 65-68 and use these as our main source of heat when possible. Nice even heat, doesn't dry the air out and doesn't "pocket" heat either. I was a little worried about our electric bill but it hasn't really changed much...maybe 20 bucks a month. Even if it was $100 dollars more it STILL wouldn't come close to what we usually pay for oil so I was pretty happy with 20 bucks:)

I am not impressed, the fan/blower inside of the box moves very little air, so while the box gets very hot (which is nice), unless you are holding your hands or feed literally right next to the front of it, you cannot benefit from the heat.

I purchased this little fireplace heater for my vintage Comet Travel Trailer. I absolutely love how small and compact it is. It creates a pleasant ambiance and heats effectively without taking up much space. I like that it doesn't overload my breaker and it has 2 heat settings. I can only say that when it's going, it definately brings a smile on my face and heats my small quarters with warmth and character. I would recommend this heater in spite of it not having an automatic thermostat to turn itself off.

I had purchased a different heater from a local store that overheated--after contacting the company, I was sent this replacement heater and loved it--it would be nice if it had a thermostat control, but other than that the flame is very pretty and it also heats the bedroom sufficiently--I liked it so much that I ordered an extra one on Amazon as a gift for future use--I would definitely recommend this heater!

Honest reviews on Comfort Zone® Mini Fireplace CZFP1

I wanted a small electric fireplace to install in my renovated Classic Shasta LoFlyte travel trailer however, the models I found had displays that were too large and they came in large prebuilt cabinets. During my web search I stumbled across the Comfort Zone space heater/electric fireplace for a great price. It turns out my next door neighbor had one so I checked the dimensions and checked out the fireplace function and was sold.

Once I received the unit I built a faux fireplace cabinet to place it in complete with a faux river rock face and hearth and a maple mantle, it fits perfectly in the rear of the trailer between the couch and dinette and looks and works great. The only thing missing was the fireplace sound so... I downloaded an hour of real fireplace recording onto my Android phone and installed 2 powered PC speakers in the cabinet and Presto! I have the look and sound of a real fireplace. Even if you're just buying it for the heater function alone... this is an attractive unit at a great price!
