I used this item under my desk all last season instead of a typical space heater. I am an energy conscious person and I knew that most small space heaters start at around 1000 watts. They blow hot air which promptly rises to the top of the room. Ironic since most people are complaining about their cold feet. Because this item only draws 90-120 watts, it can very safely be run through a timer. This allows you to have it automatically turn on just before you arrive at the office and turn off when you leave in the evening. There is an odor associated when you first begin using it but it does fade in time to be almost un-noticeable.

The low priced version from Amazon.com was temporarily out of stock so I had to buy the 36" by 16" heated mat from another seller.

NOTE: Rating lowered to two stars due to lack of durability (see update at bottom)

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

The mat with plug and lighted rocker switch plus a set of directions.

I also bought the optional plug in high-low switch which is really a good idea. I will tell you why shortly. I use my mat on top of wall to wall carpeting at the foot of my recliner. It's perfect for the four season family room where I have it sitting in front of my recliner on a carpeted floor although I am debating putting the heated mat under a throw rug. The room has plenty of glass so the thermal transfer is not optimal for cold and windy nights.

Pros -Warms up quickly, no smell from the rubber mat as others have reported. Not only are your feet kept warm but the entire area of personal space warms up to a nice cozy feel. Mat has an on-off switch which lights up when on and goes off when turned off. The optional high-low switch provides plenty of heat on high if your toes get cold. Best way to use it is to turn it on HIGH for a 15 to 30 minutes to warm things up and then switch it to the LOW setting for ongoing warmth. What a great device. It works like it claims.

Cons -None other than the black rubber mat decor theme won't win any awards from home decorating magazine editors. I will try tucking it under a more stylish rug.

Summary: You will like the mat. Do yourself a favor and buy the high-low switch for regulating the temperature on a floor where you walk around in your bare feet or with socks. If you use this on a cement floor, you'd want it at max output just to keep things warm.

One word of caution for anyone getting the idea of using this in a bathroom to warm you feet when you get in and out of the shower. There is no GFI or grounded plug! It's a simple two pin plug so doing so wouldn't be a great idea.

Update 12-27-11

I really like this mat heater. After 3 weeks of use I have concluded the optional high-low switch is a must if you use this to warm your feet when wearing socks or only in bare feet. The high setting is a bit too warm for my liking.

Update 1-15-12

Still working great. I placed a bathroom rug on top of the black mat and it works great and feels better on bare feet or socks. The only downside is my pet bassett hound likes it too.

Udate 3-18-13

After one year of great heat the mat is slowly dying. One six inch section is ambient temp (i.e., cool to the touch) and the rest of the mat is luke warm even at full power. I removed the optional hi-lo switch from the connectin path and it wasn't the problem. I have no idea why it is failing, it just is! The rating has been adjusted to 2 stars because of its lack of durability.

I have had this mat in place under my desk at work and running on high for about a month. It works just as I had hoped. No more cold feet! The smell of "hot rubber" was very evident the first week or so. Even now, if I mistakenly leave it on overnight, there is still a very slight odor that is noticeable when I first come in the office in the morning. (The office is approximately 18'x30' with about 13' high ceiling and is kept closed up at night.) Perhaps with another month or two of use, the smell will go away entirely, but even if it does not, it is not a deal breaker for me because it is hardly noticeable any more.

Honest reviews on Indus-Tool FWB Super Foot Warmer Mat

I use these in my home workshop in the winter. Standing in front of a lathe or milling machine in a chilly shop with cold feet is tough, but with this my feet stay cozy warm and this lets me work in short sleeves in the 50s which provides greater safety around machinery. I've used these for 3 winters now and am very happy with both the heat provided and the durability. I got an identical item from another online retailer.

Completely throwing all warnings out the window (oops), I purchased this with the intent of using it as an energy-efficient heating pad to put under my dogs' bed in the garage. It is definitely energy-efficient, but it doesn't put out much ambient heat. I had the product shipped to work, and it will definitely keep your feet toasty by standing on it! I definitely can't knock it for it doing what it's supposed to do really well! I may have to look into something else to keep my dogs warm, but I think I'll see how this goes when it starts to cool off again.

Also, without putting your face to the mat, there is no smell of rubber. Like I said, I gave it a test run at work when it first arrived. I had it under my computer desk and never noticed any smell coming from the mat.

Stonegate® Traditional Black Wood Stove Electric Fireplace Heater Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Ok, yes the price is very low, but the description is lacking and wrong. It says "glass paneled door" well it's really thin cheap plastic, and you can tell visually, super bummer. The stove itself is plastic also, it looks nice but it is painted plastic. On the plus side the heater works very well. The flame looks pretty nice also. I think that the biggest problem is the quote "glass front" that is a disappointment.

I have had one of these for about 2 years now. I love the flame effect and it has helped me with my stress to have it's glow. Being a man who was always good at fixing things, when the heater motor started whinning in the 2nd year of operation, I took the back off, greased the bearing, and put it back together. Worked great again! Then just recently, the flame turning motor started acting up and I took the back off again to see if there was an obstruction or something to grease or oil. Evidently the gears inside of the little motor, which I didn't see any way to remove and replace, are just wearing out due to being plastic. So bottom line, it has some flaws. Still, I enjoyed the flame effect and heat so much (with that great remote, that I just bought my 2nd one. I figure $100 a year ins't bad for what you are getting. Yes, it was made in CHINA.

I bought these several years ago and they've been a great addition to my upstairs dormer. It was basically unheated up there and space heaters just don't do what these are doing. I placed 1 under each of the 3 windows up there on one thermostat and it has never been as comfortable up there as it is now. They heat quickly and cool quickly. My bill didn't go through the roof either. I would replace them with the same type as they've served us well so far, and are still working and looking great.

Reviews of Comfort Zone CZ446 1300W FAN FORCED OSCILLATEDCERAMIC HEATER

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this heater to put in my bathroom on the counter. It is the perfect size/height and it does put out heat, but it is a noisy little thing. It rattle and shakes, quite annoying. I found I was constantly trying to adjust it to make the rattling stop. I finally put a towel under the heater, maybe not the safest thing to do, but it stopped the noise. Other then that it is a nice heater. LOL!!

Purchased this as addition to help windward side of apartment. Used it several times last year but more often this season. My wife was in our computer room with it on and all of a sudden, there was a bang, with electrical fire. Did not spread but caused a lot of apprehension on our parts. Would not purchase any product from this company again. Re-read their warranty and we did nothing to cause this to happen. .

The first one I bought worked for five minutes then shut down. I returned it for another and it did the same thing. During the five working minutes both of the heaters were super loud with so much vibration, it moved around and almost fell off the counter. Like the other reviewer, I found that a towel under the unit helped the vibration and noise, but it still shut off after five minutes. After sitting idle for 15-20 minutes it would come back on for even less time. I had this problem with both units. Since Comfort Zone is the only brand my local DIY store has, I exchanged it for a different model. It worked great....for about a month. The only conclusion I can draw from this experience is that all Comfort Zone products are poorly made and defective.

So after spending a little over a week searching for a suitable kettle I have definitely found the perfect match. I recently received a 6 cup teapot and wanted to keep it in my room along with an electric kettle to replace going into the kitchen and brewing cup after cup of tea.

My criteria

Stainless steel with as little plastic contact as possible.

Hidden heating element.

Simple functions, the less bells and whistles the less to break

Good spout

Inexpensively priced.

What I like about this kettle:

It met all my criteria.

After brewing and discarding 4 kettle fulls there is no discernible aftertaste.

No plastic contact inside, there is a plastic water level but it isn't in direct contact with the largest body of water in the kettle. Also, the tube for the boiling shut off is made from stainless as well, not plastic which is really nice.

Is real metal not just plasticy coated metal imitator I saw on a few of the models.

The inside bottom is a stainless plate with the heating element underneath making clean up easy.

The outside bottom is plastic and gets warm not burning hot so it can be placed onto a surface.

Slides onto the base easily.

Auto shutoff works well.

What worries me: I say worries because it isn't a problem right now but may be a few months down the line.

The lid opens with a button which if it breaks could potentially be a problem, not to fill the kettle as the spout provides adequate room to fill it with, but to clean it.

After two brews i took the little filter out. I am using it only to heat water and only with filtered water so to me it seems unnecessary.

The switch at the bottom, it doesn't seem flimsy per say but it does seem to be a little loose, its not a push button so I worry it may give out.

Duh, or common sense things that people seem to have an issue with:

It gets hot. Yes. It's supposed to. Since the body is stainless steel, which is a good conductor of heat, it will be hot. The handle provides ample room to grab though.

It will be heavy if completely full. Yes, water in larger amounts does get heavy. The kettle itself isn't much heaver than a standard coffee carafe so it should not add much to the overall weight.

It can be a bit loud. Its boiling water, the kettle doesn't have any sound or heat insulation so yes you will be able to hear it. Honestly for me its not really a bother. The kettle sits on its own table next to my desk and I find it kind of soothing. Plus if I am heating water for green tea or white tea I can listen in and shut it off before it comes full boil.

Along those lines, if you leave water in it for some time yes the water will cool. It is not a warmer nor is it a thermos that will keep it to the same temperature all day.

Overall:

I am very satisfied with this product. I have already recommended it to several people and it has been serving me well. Its not a fancy appliance so it does its job and doesn't require a tremendous effort on my part which was exactly what I was looking for.

Researched electric kettles no end without finding a good buy with good performance. Picked this one up at Costco, trusting in the return policy.

I've had no thought of returning it: Heats fast, and the hot water has no taste or smell. Base is light but stays put--it's no effort at all to set it on the base or lift it off.

Cons:

* The metal outside gets hot. Fortunately, you have no reason to touch it. The handle is large and comfortable and your knuckles are protected from accidental brushes, so the heat of the metal is not likely to matter.

* The trigger on the top of the handle opens the lid. A minor annoyance: this usually flings a few droplets of water about. If you use the trigger to open the lid just after boiling, though, those droplets will be very hot. Fortunately, there's no reason to do this unless you're starting another kettle-full just after finishing one. When you're pouring normally, you'll be pouring through the spout and the top needn't be open.

I went thru three cordless electronic kettles like this one and was not satisfied, but this one is a keeper, I love it, it boils water fast, keeps it hot/warm for a long time, water doesn't taste funny, no problem with top not opening properly, it's all around the best that I've used, I'll recommend it to everyone~~~

Honest reviews on Hamilton Beach Stainless Steel Ensemble Electric Kettle, 10-Cup

After lots of research, I opted for this one. I drink hot tea every day and wanted an easy and safe way to make hot water, without using the microwave or turning on the stove. This electric kettle did the trick!

PROS:

Kettle can be removed from heating base and carried around.

Wide, sturdy handle for easy carrying and pouring.

Very minimal if any dripping while pouring, really great pouring design.

Heats water very fast.

Automatic shut-off once water reaches a boil, very nice feature.

Very simple switch for on/off and red indicator light tells you it is in the process of heating.

Minimal plastic, mostly stainless steel parts that touch the water.

Metal mesh filter inside pouring spout to catch mineral deposits. I don't really have a need for it, but some might. Can be removed.

Kettle can be placed at any spot on heating base, no need to line anything up.

Heating portions are internal to reduce corrosion and damage.

Boil-dry prevention; it won't allow the unit to turn on the heating element if it detects kettle is empty.

CONS:

Measuring indicator is behind handle, so not the easiest to read while holding.

Product guide states minimum water to boil should be no less than one liter. This is excessive for some of my uses, but not a big deal.

Uses a lot of power fast to quickly heat up that amount of water, actually tripped the breaker!

Lid is spring-loaded so when you push the button, it flings open and if the water is hot, it will fly back on your hand or arm. Though there is no real reason to open the kettle up when it has boiling hot water in it, it could be dangerous especially for kids.

Small opening makes it more difficult to clean, though you aren't to put anything other than water in it so only minimal cleaning is required.

OTHER

Noise: You can hear the kettle heating the water, and it sounds much like a kettle on a stove. There isn't a whistle, but you can hear the water boiling. When it shuts off, there is a 'click' as the switch flips off. I like that, lets me know it is done.

Heavy: Remember, the more water is in it, the heavier it will be. You can't touch anywhere but the handle because it is too hot (and stays hot for awhile). The handle is sturdy and thick enough to pick up the kettle, but if you have weak hand/wrists and it is full, BE CAREFUL. Use a potholder if you need to touch the other side for balance.

Overall: I'm happy with my purchase. You can easily spend a lot of money on an electric tea kettle, but I don't see the need to, this one from Hamilton Beach does a fine job.

I bought one from Costco. It works perfect. There is no rubber smell. I have a very sensitive nose when drinking my earl grey tea. Performance so far is just as good as the Cuisine Art that we keep upstairs which tends to break down after a year of use. We will see which one will lasts longer without breaking down.

Okay, I've been in your shoes. You are stopping by Amazon to read reviews before heading off to the local grocery super-store. The Oster dehydrator has terrible reviews online, but it happens to be the only model the super-store carries. You are so excited to try dehydrating your summer veggies that you want to chance it. After all, only a dozen people gave it a bad rating, surely they only had bad eggs. If a company is selling a product, surely it went through testing!

Stop right there. Don't do it. Learn from my mistake and save yourself time, energy, and hard earned cash.

Upon arriving home from the super-store, I excitedly took my new dehydrating friend out of its box. This next part is my faultI should have tested the unit before slicing my veggies, but I did not. I happily arranged my zucchini on the trays, set the machine on the counter, and plugged it in. The light turned on, but everything was oddly quiet. Just like in the reviews online, the fan did not operate. Undeterred, I called Oster customer service. The helpful representative told me that the fan makes a "very noticeable" noise when functioning. The silence meant nothing at all was happening. She advised that I return it to the store.

Next, I cleaned and repackaged the product. Thankfully I still had my receipt and made my return. The next day, I went to another store and picked up a different brandNesco. The Nesco was similar in price, but had more features. It has an adjustable temperature and the heating unit is on top, making it easier to maintain and clean. The Nesco is quiet and efficient. Most importantly, it works.

Walk away from the Oster. Trust the reviewers online and buy another model. I wasted was lured in by false hopes and advertising, but it's not too late to save yourself.

If you are looking for a dehydrator to use just a couple time a year, then this one would be great. It is cheap and it gets the job done. I, personally, should have spent the extra $20 to get a Nesco. This one is VERY LOUD when running. Also, the slots in the trays are quite large. So far most every thing I have chopped up has fallen through the trays while drying. This dehydrator has no temperature control either; depending on your goals, this may or may not matter.

I love this dehydrator; we actually bought two of them to keep up with the demand for crispy apple chips. Today the oldest one (was Christmas gift) started shutting off by itself, that is the fan stopped running. The older one which is a couple weeks old started last week to shut off. My husband returned it and got a replacement. I set it up this morning and the fan shut off within and hour after I started it. I have seen one other query regarding the fans shutting off. I would consider this a perfect appliance for the money if only I could find out how to fix the fan issue.

We tried using different electrical outlets but it didn't make any difference.

Honest reviews on Oster FPSTDH0101 4-Tray Electric Food Dehydrator, White

I bought this dehydrator because I wanted to bring jerky with me for a high protein, on-the-go snack at work and other places. I'm not sure why so many people are having as many problems with this machine as they are. Maybe there are a lot of "lemons" in the bunch, but I have had no problems with mine. Maybe I'm one of the lucky few, or maybe people are doing something wrong which causes the machine to fail. I've only used it for batches of jerky, but that's all I wanted it for. Many people have said that it stops and starts up again after a while, but I would guess they have overfilled the trays and the machine is possible heating up too much so shutting down for a while is a safety mechanism. Mine just goes, but I leave quite a bit of room between pieces of jerky so that there is plenty of room for the air to circulate. I have not had it stop once during drying. If you follow the directions it is fairly clear that you need to leave space between pieces. I have not done more than about 2 1/2 lbs of meat at a time so that there is plenty of space for circulation. That seems to be a good amount, and it gives me plenty of jerky for a while. I think you've gotta realize what you are getting before you start griping about the machine. This is an entry level, cheap dehydrator at best that you can get at Wal-Mart. If you are expecting top of the line quality and features, you're kidding yourself. If you want all the bells and whistles, you're gonna pay a lot more for them. It would be nice if it had a timer to turn it off automatically, but again, you get what you pay for and I chose to get a cheaper dehydrator that does not have that option, and really it has not been amuch of an issue. Size-wise, it's about 14 inches across and about 10 inches tall so not that big, and it's not as if I leave it on the counter when it's not in use. I've read a lot of reviews of people complaining about it sounding like a "jet engine". If you think it sounds like a jet engine, I would suggest you've never heard a jet engine. Mine sounds like a fan, a little louder than a regular desk fan but quieter than a floor box fan. That's what it is basically, a fan with a heating mechanism and some trays. I can easily tune it out and so can my wife. Sound has not been an issue for us. All in all, if what you're looking for is a simple to use dehydrator that has no bells and whistles and is cheap, this may be the one for you. Follow the included instructions, and I would guess you'll be fine. Like I mentioned before, maybe there are some bad ones out there, but I have had no problems with mine.

Just bought one of these last week. Dehydrated a batch for less than 3 hours. Went to use it again this week, turned it on and went to working on other things. Walked by it a few minutes later and noticed the fan had stopped running. The light was still on indicating it was getting power, but no fan. Disappointing and expensive for one use and not worth the hassle.

I have the Intermatic FD60MH 60-minute Spring Loaded Wall Timer wired to a towel warmer. It works quite well, but is a bit noisy. You can hear it ticking 10 feet away. It seems very well made and will probably be quite reliable over the years. Since the timer uses a spring mechanism, it does not draw power to use it, or in standby mode, as some digital timers do. The small form factor of the timer allows it to be installed in a double wall plate with another switch next to it.

This is my first oil heater, I have used spot heaters in the past. This oil heater is great because once it warms up (just a few minutes), it puts out a nice amout of radiant heat on high setting. You can feel the heat from the top of the unit when you put your hand over the top.

I feel safe leaving it on at night unlike the spot heaters. I didn't notice the strong odor on like others have posted.

Pros:

-Well built

-Seems safe to leave on at night

-Black color looks nice

-Has Low, Med, High and a maintain comfort setting

Cons:

-Thermostat goes from 1 to 6 instead of actual temperature.

-Wheels don't roll well on carpet

-Handle is only on one side, so have to wait until total cool to carry it upstairs.

-Wasn't the best packaging to ship with

I purchased the DeLonghi heater instead of another brand because I have for many years associated that name with the oil radiator type of heater. The one I purchased, the EW7707CB works well but has a couple of what I would call "design flaws" that would prevent me from purchasing another one. One of the flaws is that if you press the energy-saver button while the heater is hot, it is natural to use your free hand to hold the back end of the heater as you press the button on the front end. Well, the back end of the heater is hot at some points during use. The other feature that I have found not so helpful, is that when you turn the dial from * to 1 to 2, etc., to set the heat level, it is not easy to see the number. I have to put on glasses and use a flashlight in order to see what number I am turning to. This is not a big deal, but it is enough to keep me from ordering another one. I wanted a second heater, so I just bought another brand at my local hardware store. Other than the above feedback, the heater does seem to work well. It has two settings one for 700 watts and one for 800 watts, or you can combine them and run it at 1500 watts. I have been using the 700 watt setting in an insulated garage with a concrete floor, and I set the dial around 1 or 2 for the heat setting. With nighttime temperatures outside of around 15 or 20 degrees, it keeps the garage at 48 degrees and uses around 2 to 3 KW of energy per 24 hours.

UPDATE to my original review:

=============================

Even though I did not keep this particular heater, I still use an older DeLonghi oil-filled radiator and have been keeping records about electricity usage. The results should be helpful to anyone considering an oil-filled radiator electric heater.

I've tested electrical consumption both using a Kill-A-Watt meter and by comparing my electricity bills over time. The results show that oil-filled radiator electric heaters can be extremely efficient *IF USED CORRECTLY*, but that if not used correctly can actually be less efficient than other types of electric heaters.

The most efficient way to use them is to turn them on before you start feeling cold and leave them on low, avoiding if possible turning on both power switches. I live in a moderate climate where nighttime winter temperatures rarely go much below the high twenties Fahrenheit, so this is easier for me than for people in colder areas. I have an oil-filled radiator heater in my bedroom and have found that my electric bills are actually higher when I turn if off the DeLonghi while I'm asleep than when I leave it on low all night. This is because when it's off all night, in the morning I turn it up high, with both power switches, to heat up my room. However when it's on all night at a very low heat setting, in the morning I just turn up the thermostat but don't turn on the second power switch. Instead I use a Lasko 100 My Heat to heat my immediate area. It uses only 200 watts, rather than the 800 watts that the second power switch on the DeLonghi would use, and it heats my immediate area very quickly. The difference in my actual electricity bills were dramatic. Last winter I turned off the DeLonghi before going to bed and this winter I left it on low all night. My electricity bills for the same periods are dramatically lower this year with the DeLonghi on low all night.

I was disappointed that the particular DeLonghi I wrote the original review about did not work out for me, but if I were buying a new heater today, it would probably be another DeLonghi oil-filled radiator. When used correctly, they can be really efficient.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:

I filed for a return on a Friday and UPS wouldn't be able to pick up the unit until Monday, so over the weekend I decided to test it some more. I didn't want to return it unless it really was defective. After about 16 hours of operation at high heat, the odor was finally mostly (but not entirely) gone, but now there was a new problem: the heater wasn't outputting as much heat as when I first had it. Initially, it became so hot that I could barely touch it with my bare hand, but on my last day of testing, I was able to lay my bare hand on top for prolonged periods without feeling any risk of being burned. In contrast, my much older DeLonghi EW0507 Safeheat still gets too hot to touch.

I have two other DeLonghi oil-filled radiators and I love both of them. After returning this heater, I considered ordering the same model as a replacement and decided first to contact DeLonghi and find out their reaction to my experience. I immediately received an automated reply that promised a personal reply would follow, but after four business days I still have not received the reply. I've now decided to stick with my old DeLonghi's for a while longer. When I buy another heater, it will probably be this model, but I'll do more research first to confirm that my experience isn't common.

There is one problem that seems to be common to DeLonghi oil-filled radiator heaters. It's the low quality electrical plug. It's true of both my DeLonghi's, it appeared to be true of this one, and I've read other owners complain about it, so it seems to be a widespread problem. I no longer use my oldest DeLonghi on high heat because the plug shows signs of melting, and my newer DeLonghi's plug also shows signs of melting, though not as advanced. This is the most disappointing thing about DeLonghi oil-fllled radiators. The heaters themselves will last decades, but if you operate them at high heat, the plugs won't last as long as the heaters. I don't know yet how hard it would be to replace the power cord.

In addition to my problems with this heater, I unhappy with the condition in which it was shipped to me. It was obviously a heater that a previous customer had returned. It was disappointing that either Amazon or DeLonghi (I don't know which) didn't even make an attempt to make it look new the box was taped amateurishly, the power cord was unwrapped, the user manual was dog-eared, and the two power buttons and ComforTemp buttons were all turned on. Additionally, when I first turned it on, I didn't smell the intense odor that I expected, which indicated that it had previously been used, but what odor there was never ended, even after ten hours at high heat. I was not happy that no attempt appears to have been made to check out the unit after the previous customer returned it or to ship it in new condition. However I don't know whether the fault was DeLonghi's or Amazon's.

My other experiences with DeLonghi oil-filled radiators have been excellent, aside from my gripe with their electrical plugs. I love the steady heat they produce. I've owned one of my DeLonghi's for 23 years and it's still working, though because of the electrical plug's signs of deterioration, I no longer use it at high heat.

I checked the claimed and actual wattages of the EW7707CB using my Kill-A-Watt meter. It showed that this 700/800/1500 watt DeLonghi's actual wattages are 700, 750, and 1350. Discrepancies like this are common in electric space heaters, and in fact these readings are nearly identical to the readings I got for my older DeLonghi EW0507 oil-filled radiator, which is also rated at 700/800/1500 watts.

There was one more problem when I submitted my request to return this heater: Amazon gave me instructions to give it to my letter carrier for pickup! I can just imagine the expression on my mailman's face if I asked him to put a very large, 25 pound box in his mailbag! I had to contact Amazon via chat to straighten it out and schedule a UPS pickup. Amazon made that part of it quite easy.

General information about buying electric space heaters:

=============================================

I've owned and used electric space heaters since 1988, mostly DeLonghi oil filled radiators. When I recently began looking for a heater that would warm up a room faster, I was frustrated at the lack of hard, objective, facts about electric space heaters. Even the manufacturer websites often fail to mention or makes it hard to learn the most basic information you need to know, such as wattage ratings and warranty lengths. Not even Consumer Reports has enough information to really inform a consumer. Therefore it's up to us as consumers to share what we know. The rest of this review shares some of what I've learned.

In case you're wondering what heater I decided on to replace my DeLonghi, I didn't. I tried a Vornado PVH and a Bionaire BH1331-U, but I ended up returning both heaters. I finally decided to stick with oil-filled radiators and to replace my 23 year old DeLonghi with one of the new black ones, but it was defective so I returned it and am sticking with my old DeLonghi's for the time being.

Basic electric space heater facts:

1. All electric space heaters are equally efficient. All heaters rated at 1500 watts output the same amount of heat, but may do it very differently. You have to choose the one that heats the way you need it.

2. Power consumption is determined by two things: the power setting you're using and how long the heater is actually on. Turning up the thermostat setting doesn't increase the heat or power consumption; it just lengthens the time that your heater will be running.

3. To reduce power consumption, use the lowest power setting on your heater that produces the heat you need.

4. An electric space heater will save you money only if you turn your central heating down or off and use space heaters to heat only the rooms where you need heat.

5. The only kind of electric space heater that's likely to provide adequate heat in a large or draft space is a radiant heater (not to be confused with a radiator heater, which is very different), but radiant heaters pose a fire hazard.

Don't take manufacturer wattage claims too seriously. When I used my Kill-A-Watt meter on six space heaters, I found variations of up to 200 watts between the claimed and actual wattage for each space heater. In most cases the actual watts were less than the claimed watts, but one of my DeLonghi's 1500 watt heaters turned out actually to be a 1600 watt heater.

Two crucial steps in finding the electric space heater that's right for you:

============================================================

1. Learn which heater is right for your needs. A huge percentage of complaints by reviewers about space heaters are due to reviewers buying the wrong type of heater for their needs. Your first step should be to decide between the basic types: Ceramic heaters with a fan, oil-filled radiator, micathermic, and radiant. First learn the conditions in which each one works best and works best and then select the type that will work best for your needs. There is no one single "best" heater for all situations. Each one has conditions in which it works well and conditions in which it's terrible.

2. Look at the warranties. Warranties on space heaters range from one year to five years. Delonghi and Soleus heaters that I've checked have one year warranties. Other companies, such as Bionaire, Honeywell, Lasko, and Vornado offer three year and five year warranties on many but not all of their models. If a company offers only a one year warranty on some models but a five year warranty on others (such as Bionaire), it raises question about the durability of the heater with the shorter warranty. However a long warranty is only as good as the company offering it. Read reviews to learn what experiences people have when their heaters die while still under warranty.

In most cases, you'll have to download the manual from the manufacturer's website to get the length of the warranty. It's a nuisance, but it's worth taking the time to do.

Don't let anyone tell you that any particular type of heater is "the best". The best type is the one that best suits YOUR needs. The best heater for me might be the worst heater for you. Some heaters heat up a cold room faster, some keep a room at a steady temperature, and some will work better in a large space.

Some questions you need to ask yourself before deciding which type of heater to buyWill it be keeping a room at a steady temperature? (oil-filled radiator or micathermics heaters might be best)

Will it be heating up a cold room? (a heater with a fan or a radiant heater might be best)

Are there children or pets who might be injured by touching a hot surface? (oil-filled radiator and radiant heater might be a problem)

Do you want to heat just a particular spot rather than the whole room? (radiant heaters might be best

Are you concerned about fire risks? (oil-filled radiator or micathermic heaters might be best, though no space heater is completely safe)

Oil-filled radiators:

These are my favorite heaters. These are the heaters that look like old-fashioned steam radiators. The oil retains its warmth after the thermostat cycles off, which is important if you want to keep a room at a steady temperature. The downside is that the oil takes longer to heat initially, which is why these heaters take so long to warm up.

I have two DeLonghi oil-filled radiators; I've been using one of them for 23 years, and the other is about eight years old. I love the heat they provide. It's steady, warm, with no noise and no drying out of the air like with some other types of heaters. They are ideal for maintaining a steady temperature in an enclosed room.

Oil filled heaters have a huge drawback, however: they are terrible at heating up a cold room quickly. It can take an oil-filled heater hours longer to heat up a cold room than other types of heaters.

The US Department of Energy recommends oil-filled heaters as the most efficient, because the fins generate warmth even when the heater's thermostat cycles off. However this efficiency is only when the heater is continually on, keeping a room at a constant temperature. If you turn the heater on and off frequently, you'll lose most of the efficiency that's inherent in these heaters.

If you have children or pets, look into one of the shielded radiator heaters. I prefer the unshielded ones because they radiate more heat laterally, but the surface can get very hot and be a hazard if touched. DeLonghi claims that their shielded radiator heaters circulate heated air more quickly. Both of mine are unshielded, so I have no way of confirming that. My concern about the shielded radiators is that they would direct more hot air up rather than to the side, where I need it.

If your electric rates are different for different times of the day, you can use this to your advantage in setting your radiator heater toswitch on and warm the room from cold when rates are low, then let it provide steady heat when rates are higher.

A word of warning about oil-filled radiators: if one is poorly made or damaged, it can leak oil and permanently damage rugs and floors or even start a fire. Only buy from a reputable manufacturer and don't accept one that has any visible damage.

Ceramic fan heaters:

These are great at heating a room quickly, however many people including myself don't like the heat they blow. I don't mind it in my Vornado Personal Heater (375/700watt), which is located under my desk, but I thoroughly dislike it in the old Honeywell ceramic oscillating heater that came with my house. I much prefer the warmth that comes from an oil-filled radiator. Ceramic heaters can be most effective at quickly warming up a cold room.

Radiant heaters

Radiant heaters (don't confuse them with radiator heaters!) work by heating whatever they are pointed at rather than heating the air in the room. If you have a large, drafty space, a radiant heater might be your best choice, because it doesn't heat the air, only the objects and people it's directed at.

Micathermic heaters

Micathermic heaters work similarly to oil-filled radiators, except that instead of heavy metal fins filled with hot oil, micathermic heaters have thin sheets of mica that heat up. I've only had experience with one micathermic, a Bionaire BH1331-U, and found that it's exterior surface remained very cool except for a few very warm spots on top. There would be less risk of young children being burned by touching a micathermic heater than an oil-filled radiator. Micathermic heaters are slower heating than ceramic fan heaters, but are faster then oil-filled radiators..

Baseboard heaters

I have a Lakewood oil-filled baseboard heater I bought five years ago that has many of the advantages of a micathermic heater. It heats faster than an oil-filled radiator but has no hot surfaces and low fire risk. My Lakewood does an excellent job of heating my 12x15 bedroom.

However I have not researched baseboard heaters and only have experience with this Lakewood, so I don't know whether others are as good as this one. I was impressed that when I measured the actual wattages of my various space heaters, the Lakewood's actual wattages came closest to its claimed wattages of all the other heaters I tested. Lakewood unfortunately went out of business in 2009 and had a major problem with oil leaking from its heaters a few years earlier. Despite this, it's in many ways my best heater and has the lowest cost of operation.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi EW7707CB Safeheat 1500W ComforTemp Portable Oil-Filled

Heater is being used as a supplementary heater in a finished/insulated basement about 1000 sq/ft. Have only had the heater for a week and a half and the "comfort temp" is at least 70*. I have a thermometer on order to place in the basement to see how warm it is, but it keeps the entire finished area in my basement warm. Winter has not come yet, so we will see once it gets cold out, like highs in the single digits and sub zero temps. I'm in WI, so its only gotten down to 30* or so at night and close to 50* during the days. Have not had to turn on furnace yet, temps have gone down outside and with heater in the basement the upstairs has not dropped below 68* yet (1800 sq/ft).

Heater is silent, stink from being new took about 3 days of consistent running to wear off. Even if I have to run this unit on high it will be worth it. with the kwh charges for electricity by me if I run it on high, 1500w, and using the peak kwh rate it will cost me $63 to run it 24 hrs a day for 5 months. Plus, all the heat will just go upstairs, none wasted.

I opted for the radiant style heater for constant output without a fan to dry or force the air and the silent operation. I don't think there is anyway this would heat 1000 sq ft by itself in WI temps, but we will see. I also have furnace piped into basement as well, but haven't used it yet. Keep in mind the finished area in the basement is fully insulated and the house was built in 2006 and it cost me less money to heat this house as compared to my old 1000 sq/ft house that was re-insulated and built in the 1940's.

UPdate: My math was off, cost me almost $60 to run this heater 24hrs a day for 30 days on the comfort temp setting. I have since moved out of this house so the heater is now unused.

I received this in a great amount of time. I had actually expected it to come later than when it did. I've had it for a few weeks/months (not sure exactly) but it works great. In the instructions it tells you to leave it in a well ventilated area for the first 2 hours so the smell can go away. It had something to do with traveling, I'm not really sure. But I didn't really smell anything. I put it in my room after that, as I'm usually the coldest person in the house and it works great. It heats up my room quickly and when I reach a temperature I like, I move the nob so it clicks so it can keep that temperature. I've never really tried the ComforTemp button, but after reading the instructions about it, I wasn't sure I was going to like it. I like it really warm as, I have pretty crappy circulation and I'm always cold. There's no real temperature setting on this thing, because it's based on what you feel is comfortable for you. So make it go on the max to first get the room to the ideal temperature and then adjust it so it keeps that temp. This was TOTALLY worth every penny. It also looks really cute and chic so it'll fit any modern room like a glove! And it's great because you never have to re-fill the oil! Score!!!

I had installed these in each bathroom in old house. Wired in to replace single pole switch & it worked right out of the box. Also could turn backwards to turn off. But I can not find at Lowes or Home Depot. They only have the ones that are a single light switch replacement. I want this because each bathroom has 2 light switches (one for light and one for fan) in each wall plate.

Thanks Amazon for having them available I just ordered 3 for my new house.

This is an excellent spring-wound timer switch whose mechanism has a very solid feel to it. I first saw this timer in my office building where it gets used many times a day to turn on the bathroom fan. It's been there for years and is still holding up fine. So when the Woods timer I initially used for my bathroom fan wouldn't shut off I figured I'd give this one a try and I've been very pleased.

Like all timers, it's a bit bulky, but it helps that this timer doesn't have pig-tail wires that you need to wire-nut to the wires in the switch box. By using teeter terminal clamps built into the unit to secure the wiring it does cut down on the wiring bulk in the box. Just the two connections (line and load) and no neutral required. Highly recommended.

This is the ultimate bathroom fan switch. Without this switch, I'm guilty of leaving my bathroom fan on for hours because I forget about it. With this auto-shutoff switch you dont have to worry about that anymore. You can use this switch for other stuff like lights too if you want. Highly recommended for bathroom fan!

Honest reviews on Intermatic FD60MWC 60-Minute Spring Loaded Wall Timer, White

I purchased this timer to replace an earlier version of the same timer that stopped working. I started out looking for a different brand, but this one was the lowest cost option.

The pros:

+ Low cost + free Amazon shipping!

+ Easy installation & the dial plate fits over the existing switch opening.

+ Easy to operate, with the exception noted below.

+ Quiet operation... the fan noise is louder.

The cons:

No manual off. It's odd they removed the manual off feature that we got used to on the earlier version of this timer?

The knob is a bear to push on & just as difficult to remove! I suggest installing & removing the knob a few times to loosen it up, before installing the timer.

I have been using this timer for about 5 years and just purchased 3 more at the request of neighbors who wanted one for their apartments. Mine is used to time the hot water heater for my daily shower and has more than paid for itself in savings on the electricity bill. Previously it was necessary to manually turn on and off the heater and invariably it remained on longer than necessary, to the detriment of my electricity bill. The fact that I have used this timer daily for 5 years without a hitch is confirmation of its durability. I realize that nothing last forever, but after 5 years of daily use mine shows no sign of advancing age.

Timers are also available for shorter periods, but I see no benefit in buying one of them. This timer gives me the option of a full hour, but also permits running the timer for any period less than that.

If you need a timer, this is a very good choice.

I got this to replace a ten-year old shower head that was UGLY. I have an on-demand water heater so there has to be an easy flow through the head to get the water heater to fire up. We took the water saver filter out and it works very well indeed. And looks great! I recommend this. I got it on sale for a great price.

This shower head is great! We bought it to replace a rain-style one that was in our new home. We wanted something with a stronger spray, but whose spray didn't feel like needles. This shower head delivered. It has a beautiful bronze finish and the spray is just the right width and pressure. It's easy to rinse off and direct the flow exactly where needed. I would definitely recommend this shower head!

I have about 10 portable heaters between my house and my office. I have several Honeywell models which are ceramic. I also have the Honeywell model 709 oil-filled heater.

This model, the 370 ceramic heater, is the best so far. The thermostat works the way it should. The older models that Honeywell makes like the 339, and 341 work well, but the thermostat doesn't work the way it should.

This new model, the 370, works absolutely awesome.

Don't buy the oil filled model. I did some detailed testing with thermometers and timers. The ceramic model heats the room twice as well as the oil filled.

I use all my heaters every day for about 6 months per year. Take my word for it, this model is great.

The plastic will smell for a few weeks though. That seems unavoidable with any model unfortunately. Just run it in the basement or garage for 15 minutes per day for a few weeks and the smell is gone.

Buy this model and you won't be disappointed.

We bought several heaters and tested them out over the last 3 years. We have 2 little girls and use them to keep their rooms at 69 degrees at night (Wisconsin has some long winters). The others we tried were complicated to set or program, but this one is easy as pie. push the center dial, turn to the desired temp and if you want eco mode. That's it!!!!! It heats their 13'X12' bedrooms with ease, I would even say it would heat rooms up to twice that size. The first one we bought over 3 years ago and it is still going strong.

In Closing, if you are looking for a heater, look no further, spend a little extra $$ and get this model it is worth it

Hi, My name Is Mr. H. Patel and this is my first review on amazon. I never get a chance to write review. But i like this heater so much. I bought this heater from Walmart in clearance for $20 in March-2008. Since 2008 i am using it in 18 X 15 feet room and it's work's great. I am living in northern New jersey where winter is so brutal. sometime temp. drops down in -10 degree Fahrenheit. But this heater never gave up. It has nice thermostat control which turn on of in +/2 degree range of set temperature. Looks tiny but very powerful. also it has tip over safety feature works great. I have carpet in my all room. and i am putting this heater on small stool in corner it works for me.

After 3 winter i used i just cleaned it by opening it's panel from backside. Obviously it has lint kind of stuff clogged on top of ceramic element. I cleaned it now it's ready for 2011 winter.I recommend clean it every 2 years so it will not use extra electricity to heat it up room and work efficiently.

The Honeywell HZ-370 GP Electronic Ceramic Heater is "just the right size" if you are looking for a compact heater with a stylish design. It can be used for both floor and table top. I especially like the modern, streamlined body of this heater. There is a digital window which shows the room temperature, an energy saver button, a timer which can be set for 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours. Also, the temperature can be set from 45 degrees to 80 degrees, and the heater will turn off when that temperature is reached; it will be displayed, and then blink. It will then turn back on when the temperature drops below the desired setting. There are two heat settings 1500 watts on high, and 900 watts in the energy saver mode.

By pressing the button on the top, the heater will oscilliate. There is a recessed handle on the top for convenience. It is equipped with several saftety devices and has a tip-over switch that disables the heater if tipped over. An Alert Heat Indicator Badge on the grille turns from black to red when hot. A high temperature safety control prevents overheating, and a back-up thermal circuit breaker will shut down the heater if operated a higher than normal temperatures. Also, the heater runs fairly quite for the amount of heat it puts out.

I was impressed with the many features of this heater and how efficiently it performs. It puts out ample heat for the size. If it came with a remote, it would have received 5 stars. This is the only feature it lacks, and I would have preferred to be included. Great little heater!

I purchased this model because it was the only heater I could find that lets you set a temperature. Most other electrical heaters are simply "low, medium, or high" heat. I wanted something I could set at 55 degrees for my garage and just know that it was working without having to switch it on and off. It's just like the thermostat on your wallset it and forget it.

The first unit I purchased did not work. There is a big sticker on it that says, "if unit does not work, DO NOT take it back to the store, call 1-800-xxx-xxxx" so I called the number. What a waste of time. They asked me when I bought it (an hour ago) and then told me to take it back to the store. That sticker needs to go.

The local store that sold me the unit is really good about exchanges and I tried out the replacement unit in the store before taking it home.

The unit radiates heat nicely. It is good for heating large spaces slowly and consistently. I read that "oil filled" units like this one are really just a gimmick. They aren't more energy efficient than non oil filled varieties but the oil does continue to radiate some heat after the unit has turned off, providing a more consistent heat during "on/off" cycles but does not provide energy savings.

When the unit is first used it does produce some smoke and odorthis is not uncommon for these types of heaters because the manufacturers put a protective lubricant coating on the heating surfaces to protect it during shipping. The fumes from burning this off is potentially toxic to birds. If you own birds you should run it outside or away from birds for the first few hours. This is good advice for any type of brand new device that gets hot.

Unfortunately, if the unit loses power (gets unplugged or the power goes out) it defaults to being OFFmeaning it will not turn on again until it is re-programmed. For this reason the unit cannot be used to heat an unattended location. Many people buy heaters and set them at 40 degrees to keep the pipes in unoccupied areas from freezing. This unit cannot be used in such a location as it can't be "trusted" to remain on.

If I could have found a different heater with 1) a temperature thermostat that 2) doesn't forget it's supposed to work after a power interruption, I would have. I would not buy another one of these units.

Pros: Programmable thermostat

Cons: Questionable reliability, defaults to "off" if power interrupted.

Bought this heater two winters ago to heat a room in our house that isn't used often and doesn't have its own heat. This unit has kept the room at a regular 65 degrees two winters in a row. I appreciate being able to set the temperature and walk away. There's no 'high' 'medium' 'low' and guessing what temp is going to come out, I want 60 or 65 degrees, that's what I get. When guests stay in that room, they can have 71 degrees if they so desire and have been shocked at how quickly it heated up. I also LOVE the digital display.

I'm writing this review because I'm about to purchase my second unit for one of our basement rooms that could use a little extra heat. We live in the Pacific Northwest which doesn't get super cold, but the dampness will ruin your house and furnishings if it isn't kept in check!

Don't forget to read the users manual so you know how to properly set the temp, as that's the only thing which isn't clearly evident. If you're reading this, I guarantee you can read how to set the temp in a jiffy!

Based on what I read, I thought this heater had a programmable timer that would allow me to set it to come on every morning at a given time and then shut offin a couple hours. The timer function is an extremely primitive couontdown timer that only allows you to set 1-10 hours before it turns on or 1-10 hours before it shuts off. You cannot have both active and you cannot set a clock timer for on or off. It works well enough, the description was just not complete and was a tad misleading.

First there is not enough padding around the frame. Any time sitting in this seat results in excessive pressure on the backs of my thighs. Second the seat back leans too far back and even when strapped to the bench I felt like I was going to tip over at any moment. I used a stick to wedge the back stop up but that was only a makeshift solution that was short lived.

High expectations led to a huge let down. I had seen a similar seat at a recent sporting event, tried it and liked it so I went on line looking for the chair. What I got was sadly nothing like what I tried out in the stands just a few weeks earlier. The seat was uncomfortable with a medal bar running just under the thighs. When I leaned back (as the chair was supposedly built to allow), the underneath fabric that held the velcro in place ripped. After two uses the chair is garbage and I wasted $30+. I have since replaced the chair with two much better ones from Wal*Mart (total price $32). In this instance Wal*Mart was the way to go.
