This stove does a good job heating once the heavy cast heats up. It will take a 25" piece though they need to be a little on the slender side or just one large chunk. It heated up my 1000 square foot shop nicely. Put a fan behind it and it could do more. I would give it a higher rating but the price listed is considerably higher than what I paid 2 1/2 years ago. What is really expensive is the insulated pipe you will need to buy.

Bought this stove almost a year ago. We use it to heat our upstairs almost 1300 sq ft. This thing is a heat making machine. The only bad thing I can say is you only get a 4-5 hour burn when loaded and dampered down. Other than that it is a great stove for the money. If you are use to a pellet stove or high end wood burner you might find this stove to be to much work, but for me that is part of the enjoyment of heating with wood. I have read reviews complaining about smoke I think this is more operator error than the stoves fault. Please have your chimney as straight as possible any bends makes it harder to achieve a good draft. As well make sure you are using well seasoned hardwood to burn.

I just received it today and noticed they left out the grate. It does not come with it. So better order it also if you want. I look forward to lighting it up. 10/15/08 have it all put together now and there are no defects of any kind as of now. Putting together the required venting maybe tricky since I have not a one Ace Hardware, or a Lowe's, or Home Depot that has the necessary parts to complete the installation I will need to go on-line to find that. I will fill you in as I go. But I Love the looks of this stove in my home, COOL.

Honest reviews on U.S. Stove Company BX42E Vogelzang Boxwood Deluxe Cast Iron Wood

I recently purchased the Vogelzaang model bx26e.

I have to comment that having only used this stove twice I can safely safe this is the biggest piece of junk I have ever purchased.

The engineer must have been thinking this was for display only and not for burning anything. Some of the upper seams leak smoke. The fire door does not sit tightly against the frame and you can see flame on the other side. The damper collar almost sits outside of its recessed place and therefore leaks smoke the most.

Made in china

This stove will kill someone.

If you're willing to put the time in to study how this stove behaves you will discover that this is a great stove for the money. Remember it is not airtight and was not designed to be. So it can overfire pretty easily. But once you find the right amount to load into the stove and adjust the drafts properly, you will get a lot of good heat and save a TON of money (if you don't spend too much on the wood.) If you're getting smoke into your house it's because you don't have the proper chimney draft. You MUST heat the chimney first BEFORE you start burning the wood.

Wanda was SO excited when I told her we was gonna get us a new mattress for the waterbed we bought at the flea market. We found this one on Amazon, and we was thrilled. Since I'm a Prime Member, shipping was free.

Luckily, this was delivered at the same time as my Expandable Garden Hose & Spray Nozzle Combo 50 FOOT! (Available on Amazon from taylorman1976). The expandable hose stretched from the faucet outside my trailer window through the bedroom to the water bed. I was able to fill up my new InnoMax Sanctuary Free Mattress lickety-split thanks to my new hose.

Unfortunately, this new mattress had some tiny little holes. It's okay, I went and got some duct tape out of the tool box on my 1980 El Camino. I wasn't a Boy Scout, but like Wanda says... I am always prepared. I taped up those holes, and my new satin sheets went on that mattress and it looked GOOD in my single-wide.

As soon as I can get Wanda out of the shower, we are gonna cuddle up and take us a nap on this new mattress. I get to be the little spoon!

After I read the reviews, I ordered this one & Mr. Coffee's to try both. Both are very good warmers but with cons & pros...

This one comes with a larger surface than mr. coffee's which allows the use of bigger cups, however, the cord is much shorter than mr. coffee's & that's where it loses a star..

The switch coming on the cord could be a little awkward depending on where you place it, but it's ok with me. Both warmers are very good & would mostly keep your hot beverage warm for as long as it's on -depending on the amount of liquid in your cup. Of course, the warmer would not heat a cold drink for you so you should start with a hot/warm beverage so the warmer would only keep it from getting cold or even heat it up for ya when the liquid level is too low! ;)

Bottom line; I simply love it & it currently resides in my work office for my morning coffee/tea.. I ordered 3 more for my colleagues & they like it too =)

Our office is always chilly so our hot drinks seem to cool rather quickly. I purchased these for our desks & they are wonderful. They keep the drink just warm enough--even when you are near the bottom of the cup. Nor does the handle of the cup get hot. The on/off switch eases our supervisors mind, too. Just what I was looking for at a reasonable price.

VillaWare 2350 Die Cast Coffee Maker
Customer Ratings: 2.5 stars

When I first saw this maker I was intrigued by it's sleek Euro-cool style. I was slightly dismayed by the fact that there is no timer, clock, or auto shutoff; however, those were properties I knew going in didn't exist.

After I started using the Villaware, I liked it ok. It made coffee in a standard way, no better or worse than any other pot I've used in the past.

I had it for six months and then the spring broke that lets you use the 'sneak-a-cup' feature. This is after completely normal use. Not too long after that, the pot's burner plate has burned itself off and it leaks from underneath.

This is the worst coffee maker I have ever used. Do yourself a favor and pass this one up. As for me, I'm going back to my handy standby--the Black and Decker SmartBrew Plus. Consumer Reports has this coffee maker listed as 'CR Best Buy', and I've never had a problem with it.

I purchased this coffeemaker and it has performed perfectly for about three years. I friend noticed it and was impressed with its style, so we purchased them one as a gift. The gift had flaws which made it unusable. The spring was installed improperly and the valve to shut off the flow was so low that the carafe could not be removed. We're not talking hard to remove, we're talking impossible to remove. Villawares customer service was a joke,..."Sorry we no longer service that model, it's discontinued."

Received this today and put it together, and just fired it up. As another reviewer observed, all parts present, unit well packed and undamaged. All the holes lined up well, and the bolts all fit well where they were supposed to.

It is easy to light, and seems to put out a respectable amount of heat. It is tall enough to be safe from hair lighting, yet not so tall that the heat is far from where it is needed. It is quiet, and the entire burner seems to light evenly with a nice blue flame. Most important, it seems safe to me. Reasonable build quality, a couple of safety features common to things propane, etc.

I am taking one star away for poor instructions. The print and pictures are very small and poorly labeled, and aside from using one's logic and experience (which isn't hard for this particular assembly), the instructions on which sized bolts to use where is virtually non-existent.

Still, happy with the purchase so far... It is what we needed at less than I thought I'd have to pay. And 2 day shipping was free with Amazon Prime.

Like other reviewers I found the directions to be bad even for the breed of low cost, low-price point, Chinese made products. That said, it is not rocket science and not terribly difficult to assemble. I had mine together in less than an hour working at half-speed and it contained all the parts, was packaged well and arrived undamaged. The metal body and wheels seem to be of reasonable quality while the top/heat reflector is beyond flimsy. I personally do not have enough experience with other similar products but I am skeptical the top will last. To be fair, it was less than $200 and not $600+ so perhaps the quality was consistent with the price. I purchased the manufacturers cover as well so I will keep my fingers crossed and update on the ultimate longevity of the heater.

ADDING another STAR for excellent year two performance.

Best Deals on Fire Sense Hammer Tone Bronze Commercial Patio Heater

Received the package in good condition. All the items, nuts, bolts, everything was in order. The instructions are very small print, but you can find the pdf instructions online at the Fire Sense web site to view or print them larger. Nothing missing in the box... the only thing I added were three larger washers for the reflector hood. That's just me... because I may have to remove the reflector hood frequently for storage.

Follow the directions... use good tools... example: The instructions suggest a phillips screwdriver, but a larger-wider flathead screwdriver also works with the eight bolts that are combination philips/flat. I think the flat driver would provide more torque. The instructions suggest a variable wrench, but if you have a nice set of open-end/box end METRIC wrenches or METRIC ratchet wrench... that might work better for you.

I assembled it last night, bought a new propane tank and fired it up this evening. It lit on the first click of the starter. Love it when something carefully assembled works the first time. I kept it low flame, to allow the heater to temper at first, burn off oils, color the cylinder, then turned it up. It has a nice blue ring of flame, red cylinder wall and very very little noise. In short it works just like it should.

Honest reviews on Fire Sense Hammer Tone Bronze Commercial Patio Heater

I purchased two of these heaters for my roof after reading about the long range on the Fire Sense website, however the advertised range of 18ft in diameter is completely inaccurate.

At 40 degrees fahrenheit, with minimal wind, the range of each heater was no greater than 5 feet in diameter. In colder or windy weather, I imagine it may not even reach that.

In addition, due to Amazon's return policy of not allowing returns of items that use flammable liquids or gases I am stuck with these heaters. It's a sound policy, however it should give the consumer even more caution in purchasing this product.

I don't know why everyone has such a hard time with the directions for these and or the quality. I purchased 1 last year and another this year and both have been most excellent. I would highly recommend them to anyone and you can also get them online at Costco. Super easy to work and has the highest BTU's you can get, which mean more heat further away. We also purchased the snug fitting covers and they are awesome.

Since changing from Propane to a Electric golf cart heater this year has made a HUGE difference in my wallet and the safety of my family and friends using my golf cart.

By using the electricity off my batteries, the G200X is a safer and more functional heater then the propane. the G200X is truly a consisent warmth rather then propane being a "humid heat" and unsafe if spilled or dropped to the contact of skin.

The investment of the G200X has saved me time and money of not having to replace canisters every 3 to 4 rounds.

Thank you Heatercraft for a Superior Product!! Money well spent.

King Pellet 48,000 BTU Stove with Igniter and Exhaust Blower #5500
Customer Ratings: 3 stars

I purchased this stove 11/04/2010. I was attracted to the stove by its looks, styling, btu rating and hopper capacity. When I started the stove after the "dry run" to season and burn it in, the stove performed very well. Everything worked flawlessly and it heated very well. I am using this stove as a supplemental source of heating. The next day, my wife and I noticed the room blower fan was getting noisy. It got progressively louder until the fan motor seized and blew the fuse. I replaced the fuse and removed the blower assembly. I got the fan freed up, reinstalled it, and started the stove. The blower was even louder than before and failed again. I have requested another blower assembly from US Stove Company. They were courteous and are sending me a new blower assembly at no cost, including shipping.

Overall, the stove is good. It heats well. This stove is classified by the manufacturer as a "shop heater", not a residential heating stove; yet the stove qualifies for the 2010 heating tax deduction of up to $1,500. The stove is installed in our walk-out basement, which is 1,600 square feet. The basement, the upstairs foyer and bedrooms were warm and my boiler didn't run often when the stove was operating. The stove is semi-easy to clean (no ash pan) and the parts/mechanicals are easy to access for service. Since there is no removable ash pan for cleaning, It takes 5 minutes to clean the stove using a ShopVac.

Ash accumulation is contained in the combustion/firebox, does not leak out of the door seals, and has the consistency of flour. The stove burns the pellets completely. There is no smoke emission from the chimney. My wife enjoys the stove's automatic self-ignition upon start up. I enjoy the stove's 120 lb hopper capacity. 1 bag of pellets will last approximately 10 hours with the stove's heating range set to 2-3. The stove has 5 heat range settings, 1 being lowest and 5 being highest. I fully expect this stove to greatly reduce my heating bills this coming winter. The basement was very cozy with the stove on.

This will be a very good investment if the room blower unit is repaired and stays operational.

Update: 11/30/2010

The new room fan is installed. I received the new room fan 4 days after contacting the company. It appears the new room fan blower assembly has been re-engineered. The new blower works very good, but running noise is still noticeable. The stove is fully functional and heats well. We have been running the stove on heat range setting 1 and our basement temperature has been staying in the range of 69-70.5 degrees F. On heat range setting 2 the basement temperature is between 71-73 degrees F. Average outside temperatures have been about 28-34 degrees F at night. The stove has been trouble free since I installed the new room fan. The feature I like the most is the large 120 lb hopper capacity. The stove will operate nearly three days before requiring pellet refill. The glass window interior in the door quickly covers with fine ash when the stove is operating but is easily vacuumed & wiped off while cleaning the stove.

Where do I start with this stove? We bought two, US Stove models 5500 and the 5500XL from Northern Tool Co.

1. Both units are not flush across the front, when placing a straight edge across the front leaves a gap in the middle in the middle of the unit up to a 1/16 of an inch. The cast door is straight, but when closed across the front of the stove unit produces a gap in the middle of the unit that allows a clear view into the firebox onmodel 5500. I called Customer Service at US Stoves they wanted pictures of the installation and a narrative which I provided before they would do anything. I then called Northern Tool and they notified US Stoves who then sent me a new rope gasket. The 5500XL is missing 3 inces of rope gasket along the bottom of the firebox door.

2. Each stove burns a bag a day, but produces little heat no matter what the setting is at. I have experienced other pellet type stoves owned by friends and have noted that they burn at a rate that warms the room to excess. I feel much of the heat is disappearing up the stove pipe. My son placed a wet towel on a chair in front of the stove blower to dry and it eventually did after an extended period. The towel was not hot to the touch. The stove pipe is a double wall vent kit by Simpson Dura-Vent installed in accordance to NFPA 211 and inspected by the County Building and Codes Department.

3. Igniting both stoves are a continual problem. Stove pellets do not ignite readily, causing the operator to empty the pellet tray, and start the ignition process over and over. This can take 10 to 20 minutes, often times we give up in exasperation. Pellets spill over the pellet tray and fall into the combustion chamber. The pellets can only be retrieved by vacuuming them out which results in wasted pellets. A customer service rep at US Stoves, named Christy, says this is nromal!

4. Ash build up is expected and is vacuumed as needed at least several times per week. The area under the pellet box builds up with ash and is inaccessible to routine cleaning.

5. Stove is warranted and an extended warranty was purchased in addition to the factory warranty. But Northern Tools and US Stoves will not back their product without the customer going to great lengths to prove their case. We just want a stove that works and now that winter is here, we are stuck with a stove that DOES NOT!

I bought a US Stove 5500M Ashley to save money with heating. It burns one bag a day ($7.00) but it is not even close as potent as advertised. It is advertised to heat up from 1,200/1,500 sq ft, but it heats up to 500 sq ft, if that much.

It is very noise, too. One can't watch TV or talk on the phone, or even have a conversation in the room where the stove is.

Worst of all the warranty for electrical parts is for one year only, and those parts seem to be produced to last just a little longer than the warranty. I bought this stove last fall, one month after the warranty expired the igniter has melted. I have to spend U$50,00 to buy a new one. Luckily, I am skillful enough to fix the stove myself. Otherwise, I would have to pay U$200,00 plus parts for a technician to fix it.

If you are still thinking about buying it. Buy it in a place that allow returns (in case you can put up with the noise), and buy extended warranty (because, most likely, it is going to break right after one year).

I purchased this unit about 3 years ago to help take the chill off in my big old house. I did not buy a stove to use as my soul source of heat, which is probably why I like mine. I use a forced air oil furnace as my primary heat set at 65ish and use this stove to supplement. It is very loud, I do have to say that. The blower is loud and the auger feed is noisy. Im sure that those noises are not any worse than average for a pellet stove. What is very noisy and annoying is the thing vibrates now and then. It seems to come and go and correlates with blower fan speed. If it did not have that vibration noise, I would like my stove much better. The other complaint I have is the igniters go up like candy. I have replaced 1 a year so far. This year I replaced it and about 3 months later it was burnt up again. My wife called the company and they said they had a bad batch of igniters and sent us a free one. I have to give them props for that, but that does nothing as far as all the other ones I have had to buy. The flame quality that this thing puts out seems much better than a couple of other pellet stoves I have seen in use. I would say the stove puts out the heat I was expecting and maintenance seems pretty easy for me. My next purchase will be a furnace style pellet stove to replace my oil one and it will be through US Stove Company. If this stove didnt vibrate and eat igniters I would give it a 5 star.

Editing...After the shipping woes I described below, I found the EXACT SAME cooler at a large home improvement store that is in most areas. It's under the brand "Polar", but it is identical and made by the same company. There is nothing different about it. Same motors, same design, etc., and it was $199. I can tell you it keeps water very cold. My wife is not a fan of the energy saving "kettle" feature. It doesn't keep water hot so you can step up and get a cup of tea anytime you want. You have to press the button and 3-4 minutes later water will be tea/coffee hot. This is fine if you plan every part of your day. It sucks if you want to make a mug of tea on your way out the door and you forgot to hit the button 5 minutes prior.

First, I'll tell you that I have no idea if this dispenser keeps water at perfect cold or hot temps. I don't know if it easy to change bottles or to clean it. I was never able to get that far because Amazon can't ship this item anywhere without it being trashed. What I can tell you is that you should not buy this until Amazon figures out how to package this so that it can arrive in a form that resembles a water cooler. I wish I were kidding. This is a thin metal shell. It's nothing special, but what do you expect? It's a cooler, not a structural support beam. However, when you have thin metal containers, you'd think it should be protected from bumps and dings, right? This cooler could be creased with your bare hands, so sending it in a PLAIN CARDBOARD BOX with a small piece of stryrofoam on the top and bottom (Nothing on the sides!!! Are you kidding me??) is a recipe for disaster. I ordered this via Prime, and it arrived 2 days later. The cheap box was beat up. It had gone through the UPS wringer, that's for sure. When I yanked it out, there it was. The side was creased in about 2". Also, the top plastic cover was cracked from a ding or fall it took. I called Amazon and expressed my displeasure at the packaging and asked for a replacement. They sent one next-day via FedEx. Unfortunately this one was in even WORSE shape. The side was so bashed in the cover had zero chance of going back on. What a disaster. This would be an easy fix if they would simply put the cooler with its box in a bigger box and actually protected the product. So, until someone can verify that this cooler is packaged as if they actually wanted it to arrive in one piece, I would stay away.

I love this water cooler. It is very nice looking, with the water bottle underneath and out of sight. It has hot, cold and room temperature water. I have had other water coolers and this one is the best one yet.

Best Deals on Vitapur Bottom Load Water Dispenser

The Vitapur Bottom Load Water Dispenser is perfect! I haven't used the hot water dispenser, as I use it for cold water only. It cools the water perfectly-enough to fill a couple glasses at a time before more needs to be cooled. The motor (? or pump?-whatever makes the water go up from the bottle to the holding tank) is a bit loud. Since I have it in the dining room, it's not an issue for me, but if someone wanted to put it in a room where noise would be a factor, I wouldn't recommend it for that location.

I was concerned about having it shipped, based on some reviews stating they arrived damaged. I had NO ISSUES whatever with shipping. The box had a couple dents, but nothing was dented/scratched on the water dispenser. It worked perfectly right away.

It's nice to be able to slide the water bottle underneath, and not have the extra vertical space taken up by a water bottle.

I have now had 2 different units shipped to me. The first was damaged and broken and the second one now leaks after one day of use. None of the fittings, doors or covers fit properly. The overal unit is made as cheaply as possible. In addition, the hot water option turns itself off after a short period of time. Thus, you have to wait for it to heat up every time you want hot water. This unit is one of the worst things I have ever purchased.

I live in a studio apartment with no washer/dryer hookups so a ventless washer/dryer combination was the only option for me. After reading mixed reviews of the Haier 1.8 Cu. Ft. model and not wanting to spring $1500 for an LG, I chose the Edgestar and I am quite satisfied so far. There are many things to love about this appliance: the custom cycle selector is great, the washer cleans very well, the machine is whisper quiet,you can select wash only or dry only, and the water usage is minimal. And then there is the dryer. Yes it takes a long time to dry about 90 minutes for a small load, but if you are patient, clothes come out wrinkle-free and smelling great. I recommend the Edgestar for a single person who does not have to wash big loads frequently. A comforter will wash fine, but I would not try to dry it in a ventless dryer. Plan on 3 hours or more from start-to-finish for towels or a load of jeans.If that works for you, then this is a great purchase.

I called the Edgestar company, they haven't made the units for at least 8 years and have no parts nor any advice on someone who does.

I got my machine used, it worked for one month. When it worked it was the best little machine I'd ever used, now it's just an expensive and bulky space gobbler.

Knocking off 1 star because it only has 1 exhaust path (so it pumps the "inside air" outside as it runs). Some find that "more aesthetic", but I find that it causes drafts around the edges of the sunroom that are the outside temp.

But other than that, it seems to be rock solid, even after twising it around so we could install it in an electric VW Cabriolet!

Draws 10A @ 120V, so it's easily powered, and it does a good job at protecting itself (it won't let the compressor cycle on/off faster than 5 minutes -so if you flip from Cool to Heat, expect some delays). Bonus that the water runs from the Evaporator to the Condenser; this improves is performance mesurably.

The LED displays flicker, but meh... they work, and the unit brings 90F air down to 70F, so it'll do nicely for blowing cool or hot air (60F-> 110F)at you. I wouldn't count on it for a house, but for a cool breeze in a sunroom, it fits the bill nicely.

I bought this recently and set it up right away. The high setting is loud for sensitive sleepers but if you need white noise to fall asleep the humidifier can double as a sleep machine. It puts out a nice cool mist on both high and low. PROS: It has a nice design -It is a solid performer -It is easy to fill CONS: The tank and the wick cover sometimes are easily disturbed -it is a little clunky -the grill on the fan cover disperses the mist mainly in one direction when it looks as if it would be omni-directional. FINAL THOUGHTS: I recommend it highly but wish the wick was cheaper to replace (around 5 bucks 2 times a year) but considering the other ones on the market it is still a good buy.

This is a good product. it has it's pro's and con's. First, it is loud when you use it on full blast. So, either deal with the noise or just turn it on early before bedtime on a medium speed so the room has time to "get humid". Secondly, it's annoying to have to take it apart everyday (which you have to do to prevent mold, but I believe it's something you have to do with all of these things... not just this one). On a high note, it seemed to help and I haven't had any problems with it mechanically. I'd purchase it again and recommend it to a friend.

PS: the noise is kind of a good thing for baby like white noise. I'm a light sleeper though and didn't like it I kept it on medium all the time.

We bought this unit at Babies R Us to combat dry winter indoor air. We were specifically looking into cool mist versus a vaporizer because vaporiers will add heat to the room along with moisture. We chose this unit because it uses evaporation to put the correct amount of moisture into the air instead of "spray" moisture into the air like other units. Filters last 3 months, although they appear dirty after a couple of uses we found out (after calling) that that is supposed to happen and it does not mean that they shouldn't be used. The tank is easy to fill and carry and the units fan adds that pleasant "white" noise that I actually found soothing. This unit is great if you want to take the guesswork out of using a humidifier. Will buy another for the living area.

Honest reviews on Vicks V3500N Cool Mist Humidifier 1.1 Gallon

I just bought this humidifier yesterday but I am very impressed with it already. My 5 month old has had a cough so bad it was making him throw up. Two nights ago (before the purchase) he had stayed awake almost the enitre night. Last night he slept great--9.5 hours with only waking up once. I turned the humidifier on the high speed which is loud, but this is a child who falls asleep to the vacuum cleaner. I have to say the room got cool but it sure helped a ton. Also it ran for 10 hours and still had water left, but we also have good water here in Memphis so I guess the length of time it runs has to do with the water condition. It was also very easy to open and fill with water. I love this product already.

I have had my filter for 1 year and use it only in the winter to counteract the dry heat. Last winter I ran through 3 filter for the season, and this winter it looks like I will do the same. I want to consider a second one for my upcomming baby, but I am trying to see it there are any other better on the filters. The filters are $8-9 a piece. They grow mold very quickly. They last 3 weeks to a month. It is very quiet, feels good, and works great on my sinuses. But keep your nose alert for the mold smell, and prepare your pockets for the filters.

I have been using this product for a couple months now. It's a simple fireplace grate, so lets not get ahead of ourselves on reviews. It's steel, with a durable painted on coating. It fits my fireplace well, and the grooved cross-members seem to do a good job of making as much of the wood surface available for combustion as possible. It provides a good grip on the logs too. Seems to be extremely well made so I do not expect to have any problems with it at all.

I take full responsibility for not reading the FULL description. Although the specifications listed are exact to all outside dimensions, this grate is very lightweight and may not hold up to frequent fire usage. it is much smaller, flimsy and less useful than the 27" grate I bought a couple of years ago. I would not buy this again. Not the quality expected.

The quality of this fireplace grate is just fine. I ordered an ember screen and it's perfect now. There is ample space for air circulation.
