Just used for the first time at our son's soccer game and was surprised how much heat this unit produces. We had several people come sit behind us to try and warm up (which it didn't do) but put out enough heat that within 15 minutes, we turned the unit to low and were able to take our coats off.
Based on the amount of propane used, we should be able to get close to the 30+ hours of operation claimed by the manufacturer. You do need to be directly in front of the heater in an outdoor environment. I would think it would also work indirectly for instance in a garage setting.
Impressed with the performance for the price. 4/5 stars.

I love this product. It was not very easy to install do to the directions. They are poor, follow them but use your good common sense as well and you will figure it out. Took me about 90 minutes in the freezing cold. Hardest part is getting the wires snaked through the proper place to the switch on the control panel. When you are done you will love it. I had the stove alone for one winter, it was good but when I added the blower unit it make the entire room warm. Now we can sit relax and be warm in our sun room all winter.

The Blower works very good It really warms up the room the stove is in. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that it runs for hours after the stove has turned off and therefore it blows cold airBest Deals on Kozy World 20-6030 Gas Stove And Fireplace Blower
I received it a lot quicker than the delivery date. It was packaged well, and works very well. The only thing is it does not turn off automatically when the heater is turned off, but other than that it works great.Honest reviews on Kozy World 20-6030 Gas Stove And Fireplace Blower

Reviews of DeLonghi HMP1500 Mica Panel Heater
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $89.99

Intro...
Upon researching various types of heaters for the past week, I came to the conclusion that this heater would be a good pick for a bedroom. I ended up purchasing a Lasko heater for the living room and this DeLonghi Mica Panel Heater for the bedroom. The reason I chose this brand over other mica panels is due to my experience with their products in the past. I've owned a DeLonghi Magnifica Espresso machine, which has worked flawlessly for over 4 years along with a DeLonghi Radiator Heater which has worked just as great. If you dont know much about DeLonghi, they are a European-based company that makes quality appliances, specifically utilizing German-engineering.
Overall Thoughts...
Upon testing out this new technology heater, I noticed that it had all of the great features that a radiator heater had. To add to the conventional radiator heater, it also features instant-on heat while maintaining a low-profile size. Due to the thin profile, this heater can be wall-mounted like a picture frame. However, I'd recommend keeping the heater as low as possible since heat tends to rise, pushing the cold air down. Another great feature about this heater is the quietness during use. Because there are no fans or moving parts, there are no constant noises. A conventional radiator heater makes a considerable amount of noise from the oil dripping inside. So how is the heat output from this new Mica Thermic technology? To put it short, it provides an ample amount of heat similar to an oil radiator heater, but has the advantage of instant heat. This gives you instant warmth when you stand in front of the heater immediately after you turn it on. This is something that you cannot obtain with a conventional radiator heater.
Final Thoughts...
Overall, I'm very surprised at this new technology for heating. It provides all of the great radiation type heat which maintains the temperature of the room quite well, without having to wait. Also, the low profile gives many options on where to put the heater. Lastly, the device is VERY safe. The cage around the heater provides 100% security from being burned, and the front panel can be touched comfortably without ever being burned. However, upon checking the temperature of heat output with an IR thermometer, it provided 300-400 degrees F of heat. Its quite surprising to see those types of numbers, as you can touch the front panel stays considerably cooler than the heat output. The heater also has an auto-off feature if it tips over. A great heater for an enclosed room, however, be sure that the room is around 150 sq. feet or less. Any larger, and this heater will not provide an ample amount of heat. For larger spaces, take a look at the Lasco Space Heater.
We use it in a 200 sq ft bedroom, with the rest of the house left at 63 at night. On the LOW setting this heater can easily push the room to 80 on a 20-degree night.
A control suggestion (to be followed under your own advisement!):
Right from the beginning I used a Lux WIN100 plug-in thermostat. I removed the sensor and attached a 30-foot extension lead to it. The thermostat and heater are positioned on the colder outside wall, with the sensor on a small homemade pedestal on my wife's night table, on the opposite side of the room. Works perfectly. If you have any mechanical/electrical ability, the modification takes about the same time as writing the description. (I've since learned that terrarium-keepers use the same method (with other heaters, of course.))
We've never used this heater on HIGH. (I would think that without a separate thermostat it could cook you to medium-well overnight.)
On the LOW setting it averages a 30% cycle time set at 69 through the winter nights (as measured with a Kill-a-Watt). So, if it's on for 9 hours/night at 750W, it runs for 3 hours and costs about $0.75/night. (Our oil burner eats 0.6 gal/hour at $3.99/gal, or about $2.40/hour. Heating the whole house to heat the bedroom is obviously nuts.)
Oh --we also have a solar system that averages 10,000 kWh/year, so you get the picture!
The other Lux thermostat kicks the oil burner on in the morning --as this heater gets turned off simultaneously.
Be advised that this heater makes some "crinkly" noises when it heats, especially when new. You'll ignore it by Day 3.
I bought this DeLonghi heater thinking that it might at least keep the chill off long enough for us to figure out another 5,000 Watt solution to replace our original heaters. I can't really figure it out, but just ONE of these1500 Watt DeLonghi heaters is heating my entire house. It is COMPLETELY silent. I'm using less energy and the house is plenty warm, even when we've had freezing temperatures. I would buy another one I love it so much, but apparently I only need one! I'm thrilled.
This heater is absolutely fantastic so far. It's not absolutely silent like an oil-filled radiator. You can hear a very quiet hum which sounds like a transformer when the thermostat turns the heater on. You only hear it at night when everything is absolutely silent in the room, and it's barely audible. The hum is louder on the high setting, but still quiet. The unit heats up fully within a minute or two and heats up a room as fast as any other type of space heater. It emits no light. The heating element appears to be a heavy paper or fabric sheet which is suspended in the middle of the housing. There's no fan.
The upper knob is the off/low/high switch. The lower knob is the thermostat, which reads 1 through 6. I only use it on the low setting with the thermostat set at 2. It heats up a 250 sq. ft. room with a 10-foot ceiling like nothing when it's 40 degrees F outside. I'm thinking that 1 or 2 of these would heat the main living area of a 2000 sq. ft. house.
It has a recess on the back side in the middle of the upper edge which serves as a handle. It's very light and can be moved very easily by lifting. It has 4 rollers for feet which not only makes it easy to roll around, but keeps it from tipping over if it's bumped, since it will roll out of the way instead of tipping over. It has a tip-over switch which turns it off if it's tilted too much, not that it ever gets hot enough to ignite anything. The tip-over switch makes a rattling noise like something is loose inside if you shake the heater it's not a broken part inside.
Unlike an oil-filled radiator heater, it only emits heat from one side which allows you to move it out of the way and use it without fear of heating whatever is behind it. The back side is so cool that it comes with a plastic bracket which allows you to hang the heater on a wall.
So far this heater is fantastic. I've used it for one season without any issues. I recently bought 2 more and to see if they will in fact allow me to stop using propane central heat altogether. I placed two of them in the living room, plugged them both in and set them to full blast. 10 minutes later, they tripped the living room breaker, so I tried one on full blast for a couple of hours. It took 2 hours to go from 60 degrees to 62 degrees inside. It's obvious that one isn't powerful enough to heat most of the house, and going by the paltry increase in temperature, I'm now sure 2 of them wouldn't cut it either. Oh well.
These work great in a closed bedroom to heat up the whole room. If using on in a large space like a living room, it'll only warm people who are close enough to feel the warmth coming off of it.

I have a small (700 square foot) house with 12 ft ceilings. When we built it this summer we installed two "whisper quiet" 2500 Watt electric wall heaters, which were fine until it got cold and we actually needed to use them. The noises they made at random times during the night woke everyone up periodically throughout the night. We were going nuts.I bought this DeLonghi heater thinking that it might at least keep the chill off long enough for us to figure out another 5,000 Watt solution to replace our original heaters.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi HMP1500 Mica Panel Heater
It was overall a good heater. It was slim, didn't take up too much space, didn't make much noise and cranked out a good amount of heat. I've had it for less than 2 years and it's already starting to die, meaning I see little sparks in the machine and it barely provides any heat (and can't even heat the bedroom anymore). I would recommend buying another heater that will get your money's worth because this was Not made to last more than 2 winters (in my experience).Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for DeLonghi HMP1500 Mica Panel Heater
I've tried several types of electric space heaters radiant heater with resistive wire ribbon, oil-filled radiator, quartz, and now this. This is by far the best. The ribbon and quartz heaters glowed bright orange, lighting up the entire room. The Sunbeam/Holmes quartz tower heater made a rattling noise from the heating elements and also had a fan which was really loud and quite startling when half asleep. I nearly had a heart attack when it came on a couple of times when I was half asleep. It lasted less than 2 seasons due to an unbelievably primitive thermostat which stuttered and turned on/off every few seconds for as long as a few minutes before it stuck in either the on or off mode. The oil filled heater worked OK for a few years until the heat broke the perimeter weld and it began to leak oil on the floor.This heater is absolutely fantastic so far. It's not absolutely silent like an oil-filled radiator. You can hear a very quiet hum which sounds like a transformer when the thermostat turns the heater on.

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.

Holmes Oscillating Space Heater with Fan Review
I have this heater in my office at work and I had one at home. It is perfect for warming a nice sized space. My work office is about 10x10. At home I used it in the guest bedroom or my master bedroom if I didnt want the central heat on. I love that it rotates. With all the different heat settings you will find one that works for you. I'm buying another because I lent my home one to my parents and they plugged it into an outlet with about 10 other appliances, the breaker popped and burned the circuitry. (Not the fans fault). I would recommend to a friend.

I bought this heater because it has an all plastic casing surrounding the metal heating element. Therefore, I can put it on the floor and my young children will not be burned by it. It is also a very effective heater, easily heating a large bedroom or living room.

Looks great, got a bunch of compliments on this. The cabinets on the side are perfect. Like it that the light will run when the heat isnt running. it also needs to be plugged into a grounded outlet. Make sure you have one. Also really easy to put together and is not made cheap. Great product for a great price.

First I'd like to say it came by mail very quickly, less than a week (2 separate shipments) even though I chose the standard shipping. The box was a little torn up but nothing inside was damaged. I found it to be a bit of a pain to put together by myself, but it turned out to be quite worth the effort. I too left off the doors and like the look better without them, but to each their own. If you want a small decorative item to serve as a space warmer then I think its worth the money.Best Deals on Stonegate® Black Storage Mantle Electric Fireplace
Do not purchase this item if you are looking for an electric fireplace that looks real. The firebox is very small. Their is only one log and the fake flames look like the side of the box is red. Below the log when light is on looks like a red rectangle. The painting done to make it look like coals does not even show. It is just a red rectangle. The fire has no realistic look at all. Looks more like a mobile light in a childs room. Very disappointed with this purchase. I would return it but I can't afford to and am stuck with this. Not even going to put in a room because it is such an eyesore. When I put my 42 inch tv on top it made the the whole entertainment center look tiny. Made the fire looks like a joke. My tv did not even fit on top and the tv stand hangs over the edge of the mantel by over 3 inches. Thought I was getting a good deal. Instead have a really thin, cheap looking eyesore. Buyers beware.Honest reviews on Stonegate® Black Storage Mantle Electric Fireplace
The fireplace is a bit smaller than you would expect. I beefed up this entertainment center with 2 DVD holders I bought at Walmart for less than $20 each to make the Center look larger. Don't expect your DVD player and stereo system to fit in this. The fireplace is great, but small. I love the way it looks, and the heat is great. The doors aren't predrilled on the entertainment center, so you'd have to spend a lot of time figuring out where to place the doors so they are level, so we just left them off. Overall, a decent little buy, but wish we would have gone with a larger center.Tuesday, July 1, 2014

Discount Bionaire Micathermic Element Console Heater
This product is very similar to the higher priced BH3900. The review below also applies to this.
---
My new home came with central heating. I loved the convenience, but wanted a heater for the bedroom so I didn't have to heat the entire home through the night, when it was only one room we needed heat in. There began my quest for a portable electric heater!
My first try was a Bionaire Digital Tower Ceramic Heater. It went right back to the store the moment I realized how powerful (read : noisy) the fan inside was. It did do a decent job warming up the room though.
I knew I'd like something quiet. Real quiet. My next try was an Oil Filled Radiator. It was much quieter just low clicking sounds (probably from the metal or oil expanding?) but failed to impress on heating. It took almost an hour to make a significant difference to a cold room (12x14) and barely kept the temperature up through the night with the thermostat dialled up. When in use the surface turned really hot and I worried about someone stepping into it in the middle of the night or my cat scalding herself while trying to kill it :)
I decided to try the Bionaire BH3900 it promised swifter heating and a cool surface. My wife and me were delighted! It warms the room up much swifter than the oil filled radiator and is absolutely silent! The heat mostly escapes out the top and there isn't a lot of heat radiated to the sides. The grille on the side makes this look more elegant than the radiators and just gets luke warm even when this has been running all night. And while my cat has sniffed at the grille (when on) she hasn't been tempted into attacking it yet.
This was twice the price of the other options we looked at but were sold on it the first night we tried using it. I wish the thermostat were digital (knob takes some tweaking to find your sweet spot) but our quest for a heater has ended.
I disassembled the older unit and it seemed well built. I found that the on off switch was broken. This is a "snap in" plastic switch and if you are careful you can pry it out of the faceplate with a small screwdriver or knife. For those of you who may have a similar problem the switch is a round, illuminated SPST rocker type and it's made by a factory in China under the brand name RLEIL model RL3-5. Either the switch broke and then fried or it overheated and some plastic melted internally. In any case the switch doesn't appear to be as heavy duty as it should be and I would recommend not using the "high" or 1500 watt setting for this unit. I bought a pack of 10 spare switches on Ebay for $5 so that's gives you an idea how cheap they are made. It doesn't appear that these switches have a UL rating.
Postscript: April 14th OK, I got the new unit under warranty and it's been improved! Instead of a lighted on off switch they have a separate light on the front panel to let you know the unit is running. So the new switch looks to be heavier duty. Also, they changed the design of the front panel handle to allow easier access to the panel for disassembly and repairs should they be needed.
The heater is very neat looking. The design is very similar to the Duh-long-high type oil-filled heaters. (Yes I was being cruel to Delonghi) The frame of the heater is made of hard plastic and the sides are what appear to be of a chicken-wire type enclosure. This allows you to fully see the internal panels or heating elements. You will notice 3 heating elements. Now strangely the design is not ugly. It's kind of cool to see what's going on inside the heater. Now those oil filled heaters work OK but they take soooo long to get hot and if you're not careful you can burn yourself with them. No worry about burning yourself with the Bionaire and it gets hot very quickly. Even on the Low wattage setting the unit begins to give off heat after just 30 seconds of turning it on. I have not needed to use the High wattage setting by the way. The controls are similar to the oil-filled heaters. Could it use a digital thermostat?? Maybe but really the turn-dial thermostat works just fine. The heater is near silent. Just the occasional expansion sounds as the unit heats up or cools off as well as the clicking sound coming from the thermostat. These little noises didn't bother me at all. They actually reminded me that the unit was running. What about the weight?? Anybody who owns an oil-filled heater knows that you have to be somewhat healthy enough to lift that thing. The Bionaire is incredibly light. The product specs claim 15 or 20 pounds but that cant be right because it feels like only 5 pounds or less. It is truly and remarkably light weight. I find that sometimes the wheels are a bit unnecessary because if I need to place it in another room, it's faster if I just pick it up and bring it to the other room instead of rolling it around. I plan to purchase a second unit soon because it is working so well but I want to give this unit a chance to properly prove itself to me before I purchase a second.
To be honest I was pleasantly surprised at how well this heater works. I wasn't expecting it to work too well but I was happily proven wrong. Strong and quick heat in a handsome design. Now I've seen some folks mention that they bought theirs from Costco but since I don't have a membership to that place it didn't pay for me to go and get membership and then pay for the unit. For current Costco members yes you absolutely got a great deal on a fantastic heater.
I am very, very pleased with this heater. I have it on in my den right now as I'm typing this review and it is so toasty warm in here. Give it a try for yourself. Good luck and stay warm.
P.S.When you turn the heater on for the first time there will be somewhat of a strong odor coming from the unit. "New smell" as I like to call it. Completely normal. In fact the papers that come with the unit mentions this. Let it run for about 30 to 45 minutes in a room with a window slightly open and it will be fine. I placed mine in the bathroom for 30 minutes with the exhaust fan running and after that the strong odor was gone.

My new home came with central heating. I loved the convenience, but wanted a heater for the bedroom so I didn't have to heat the entire home through the night, when it was only one room we needed heat in. There began my quest for a portable electric heater!
My first try was a Bionaire Digital Tower Ceramic Heater. It went right back to the store the moment I realized how powerful (read : noisy) the fan inside was. It did do a decent job warming up the room though.
I knew I'd like something quiet. Real quiet. My next try was an Oil Filled Radiator. It was much quieter just low clicking sounds (probably from the metal or oil expanding?) but failed to impress on heating. It took almost an hour to make a significant difference to a cold room (12x14) and barely kept the temperature up through the night with the thermostat dialled up. When in use the surface turned really hot and I worried about someone stepping into it in the middle of the night or my cat scalding herself while trying to kill it :)
I decided to try the Bionaire BH3900 it promised swifter heating and a cool surface. My wife and me were delighted! It warms the room up much swifter than the oil filled radiator and is absolutely silent! The heat mostly escapes out the top and there isn't a lot of heat radiated to the sides. The grille on the side makes this look more elegant than the radiators and just gets luke warm even when this has been running all night. And while my cat has sniffed at the grille (when on) she hasn't been tempted into attacking it yet.
This was twice the price of the other options we looked at but were sold on it the first night we tried using it. I wish the thermostat were digital (knob takes some tweaking to find your sweet spot) but our quest for a heater has ended.

We bought this model from Costco in October, 2006 and used it for about two years, with pretty much continual usage from October to May. It's quiet and puts out enough heat for a large room. It stopped working after two years. I noticed that it was still under warranty so I contacted (emailed) customer service at Bionaire. They were very cooperative and sent us a new unit at no charge.I disassembled the older unit and it seemed well built. I found that the on off switch was broken. This is a "snap in" plastic switch and if you are careful you can pry it out of the faceplate with a small screwdriver or knife. For those of you who may have a similar problem the switch is a round, illuminated SPST rocker type and it's made by a factory in China under the brand name RLEIL model RL3-5. Either the switch broke and then fried or it overheated and some plastic melted internally. In any case the switch doesn't appear to be as heavy duty as it should be and I would recommend not using the "high" or 1500 watt setting for this unit. I bought a pack of 10 spare switches on Ebay for $5 so that's gives you an idea how cheap they are made. It doesn't appear that these switches have a UL rating.
Postscript: April 14th OK, I got the new unit under warranty and it's been improved! Instead of a lighted on off switch they have a separate light on the front panel to let you know the unit is running. So the new switch looks to be heavier duty. Also, they changed the design of the front panel handle to allow easier access to the panel for disassembly and repairs should they be needed.
Best Deals on Bionaire Micathermic Element Console Heater
One of the reasons I like shopping at Amazon is that you get to research the product you're interested in by getting some real feedback on the product from actual owners. I find that part extremely valuable. Anyway back to my thoughts on the Bionaire BH3950-U Silent Micathermic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat. Keep in mind I only had this heater for a few days. First thing is that shipping was incredibly fast. I selected Super Saver shipping which knocked out the shipping charge and I was expecting it to arrive a bit slower than regular shipping but to my surprise I received the heater in 2 days. I was not expecting that at all. There is a bit of assembly required with this heater but trust me, it is minimal. You'll just have to attach a set of wheels, a set of foot pegs and then the handle. All of it was done without tools. Yes that's right. Without tools. The screws that were supplied were the wing-nut or thumbscrew type so you honestly don't need a screwdriver and the assembly was accomplished in 10 minutes.The heater is very neat looking. The design is very similar to the Duh-long-high type oil-filled heaters. (Yes I was being cruel to Delonghi) The frame of the heater is made of hard plastic and the sides are what appear to be of a chicken-wire type enclosure. This allows you to fully see the internal panels or heating elements. You will notice 3 heating elements. Now strangely the design is not ugly. It's kind of cool to see what's going on inside the heater. Now those oil filled heaters work OK but they take soooo long to get hot and if you're not careful you can burn yourself with them. No worry about burning yourself with the Bionaire and it gets hot very quickly. Even on the Low wattage setting the unit begins to give off heat after just 30 seconds of turning it on. I have not needed to use the High wattage setting by the way. The controls are similar to the oil-filled heaters. Could it use a digital thermostat?? Maybe but really the turn-dial thermostat works just fine. The heater is near silent.

Honest reviews on Bionaire Micathermic Element Console Heater
This Bionaire BH3950-U MicaThermic Heater is the exact same product as the Holmes Micathermic CNSL Heater that sells for $79.99 at sears (Sears item# 03276161000) that has good reviews as well. The Holmes heater's model is the same as well (Mfr. model# BH3950-U). The confusion is the the earlier model (Mfr. model# BH3900) has the Holmes brand while the later model is the Bionaire brand. There are a few modifications: changed from 8 smaller heating panels to 3 larger ones; changed low/high dial to a low/high switch. Go figure?! We like our Bionaire MicaThematic. The new technology (sandwiched element between 2 layers of mica) works well in our small den.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Bionaire Micathermic Element Console Heater
We bought this heater a few weeks ago from Costco for just under Fifty bucks. Much less than the $80+ models I have seen elsewhere. I was concerned that it might not effectively heat our large downstatirs bedroom/nursery (200+ sq ft). Well, my concerns have been abated. I set the heater on low and the dial to almost half way and our room stays at a nice 65-68 degrees. In our cold Colorado temps (it snowed just last night) it has performed well above my expectations. This heater makes no noise. The only indication is a green light that illuminates when it is running and a soft click when it turns on. There was a slight smell during the initial burn in, but I just set it in my garage on high for an hour and have not smelled anything since. Over all, a great little heater. I would definately recommend this to anyoneFriday, May 16, 2014

After several disasters with space heaters dying on me with only a limited amount of use, I decided to buy this little heater at Best Buy last year with an extended warranty. I have used it off and on for several months and now that it is getting colder again this heater is getting a workout. It is mostly used in the bathroom but I have also used it in my bedroom several times recently, which is pretty large and does get very chilly and it does a great job.
It does shut off automatically when the temperature reaches the desired setting. The casing stays really cool which is far different than the radiator heaters that I am currently trying, they get HOT to the touch. It is very light weight and for light sleepers it runs very quiet except for the light click it makes when it shuts off or comes back on adjusting to the temp change. I would say the only cons for this little heater is that there is no safety shut off if it gets knocked over and the temperature setting is a bit of a guessing game since there is no actual numbers (65 70 75 etc.) to go by. This is reasonably easy to figure out though. Overall, as of this post, I would purchase another one of these little heaters in a heartbeat.

I bought this in 2007 for the office. I had another Honeywell at home and I liked it so I respected the brand. I also needed something small-ish to fit into my 12x12 locker at work. For years, I had this heater sitting at my feet and it kept me warm when the air-conditioning was making us all freeze our butts off. I lost my job last year and brought it home and guess what I still have at my feet? This heater! I paid a little bit more for it but I definitely feel that I got my money's worth. I don't use the fan feature and I don't keep it the highest heating speed. I just use the lowest heating speed and that's enough to keep me warm. I would think that if you needed a heater to heat an entire room, this wouldn't be big enough but as an office and small room heater, this is a good buy.Best Deals on Honeywell HZ-2800P Turbo Heater Fan
Ive had this product for about a week and i have developed a love relationship with it. It literally blows hot air at you! If you are in a cold place, you know, that hot air being blown in your face or hands or anywhere is an amazing feeling. I fall asleep with it blowing on my body and then when i am waking up in the morning i pick it up and put directly in front of my face. If my hands or feet are cold i can set it up so they get hot air. On top of all that, it heats up a room quite nicely. I am a college student and have a small dorm, but i would imagine that it could heat up a room larger than my 10x14. Bottom line is that it feels so good, and it heats up a room. Its little though.

I have bought several of these over the pat 4 years and they all turn out the same. work fine for the first year/winter season maybe 2 then they quite working. They do heat your house well and save you money on utilities, but if you have to replace it every year are you really saving money?

This is a decent heater for a cubicle desk or a tiny bedroom, but don't assume it will work well for any space bigger than that. Seems to use a lot of electricity compared to the heat it puts out. Would be an OK buy if you can find it on sale for less than half the retail price.Thursday, January 16, 2014

Bought this unit two months ago and it did fine--although not really adequate--for our open loft space of about 800 SF. On the plus side, it is convenient in that it vents through the window and is portable. However, having read other reviews it seems ours is not the monster cooling machine that some folks seem to have.
It did pretty well until we had our recent heat wave, at which point it kept giving the FL error message (need to empty water) and shutting itself off. According to the manual, this should not have to be done in AC mode, but we figured "hey, it's a heat wave and really humid; makes sense, right?"
The first time this happened about a week ago, we emptied the water (not much of it) and it ran again for a few days before shutting off again. This progressed from shutting off every day, to every few hours, to its current status of shutting off immediately even though there is no water in it! It won't run AT ALL.
We called LG and followed instructions again to reset, clean filters, vacuum any dust/pet hair (which was already done), to no avail. This was followed by removing the color and meticulously cleaning the entire interior to make sure there was no dust in there. As of right now, we have a service call set up to see if a pro can't get it working again. Needless to say, this is super-frustrating because we're suffering record-breaking heat.
With our local power company estimating one week to restore electricity after a storm and temperatures reaching nearly 100 degrees each day, some sort of A/C for our basement walk-out rec-room was essential. Our two-story house became virtually uninhabitable due to the high heat, except for the basement. We have a good generator, so power wasn't an issue as long as the A/C used 115 volts. Some units in this BTU range need 230 volts, which we didn't have. We bought this unit from a local Home Depot.
Features:
running continuously, it kept a 1000 square foot (well insulated) rec room in the low to mid 70's on days it reached nearly 100 outside.
Even though it's pretty loud, we could watch TV with it running, with no problem. The operating sound is mostly the whooshing of air.
it doesn't come with a drain pan, which is actually OK. After running for 2 full days in the hot humid Washington DC are, there was zero water to drain.
the unit's control panel is intuitive. We didn't need the instructions or the remote. Plug it in, turn it on, set the temperature you want.
since you don't have to lift it up (after it's in the room where you want it), installation is easy on your back.
this device can be used as a dehumidifier, in which case, exhausted air isn't sent to the outside. In this case, you'll need to buy a drain hose for the water (but that connection is only one inch off the floor!).
rolls easily on a hard floor (but not so easily on carpet).
Other:
This design is excellent for emergency A/C use, or if the other types of A/C are impractical for the room. It exhausts hot air out the window that it sucks in through other household windows/doors i.e., a corresponding quantity of [warm] outside air is being pulled into the room you're trying to cool, from other places in your house. Thus, this design is less efficient, electric-usage wise, than a window A/C unit; and far less efficient than a central A/C, or a ductless A/C.
The unit itself is 33" high, 18.5" wide, 14" deep, and it has to be about a foot out from the window to give the 6" flexible exhaust hose room to bend.
this unit is called "portable", which is technically valid since it's on wheels. However, it has to be exhausted through a window after installing the supplied widow trim. That means it has to stay at the window where that trim is mounted. In other words, it's not portable if it's being used. The only time it will be rolled more than a few inches is when it's not "installed". A truly portable unit could be rolled to, and used, anywhere there's a 115 v receptacle.
LG includes variable-width trim to install at the bottom or side (on a slider) of a window, that the unit's 6" exhaust hose plugs into. These plastic parts are pretty thin, so be careful they don't crack. Screw it to the window frame to hold it in place if it is to stay there awhile. However, since an installation is only for a few days, duct tape can be used to hold it in place and seal the opening. After the emergency, just peel the duct tape off and remove the trim.
One end of the 6" exhaust hose snaps into the base unit and the other end snaps into that window trim. The ends of this hose are thin plastic and could be broken; so be careful.
One year warranty is fairly typical.
Summary:
If the above description meets your needs, this unit is probably comparable to any "portable" A/C in this BTU range.
I will never purchase another LG product again.

My husband and I purchased this item in June 2012 for a small summer home. We have used it maybe a total of 3-4 weeks over the past year. It has been very hot and humid lately which is when you want a functioning unit the most. Two days ago, the Air Conditioning unit began to leak a significant amount of water onto a new rug and the wood floor. The rug is stained with an orange color (like rust) permanently. We tried to take the unit apart to see if there was a hose that became disconnected and was causing the water to leak all over the floor. This was not the case. There is no drain hose. There is a magnetic float that tells the unit to shut off if the water reservoir is full and needs to be emptied. We only looked on the inside and did not manipulate anything. After we put it back together the unit flashed FL and says the water if full. There is not water in the reservoir. The customer service assistance at LG is lacking tremendously. I spent about 2 hours of my vacation time trying to understand the customer service representative. They basically told me my unit needs service. As I have read in many of the other reviews, the service cost is just shy of a new unit. I requested to speak to a supervisor at LG which took another 30-45 minutes of my vacation time because they lost my call when transferred, and then I was placed on hold for a very long time. It is so frustrating!!!!! Then I was told they could not help me because I cannot locate my original receipt. Oh and by the way, a warranty card does not assist them with finding a purchase date and location. The warranty card goes to a third party for who knows what!!!I will never purchase another LG product again.

We have owned this until less than 2 years. Within the first three months of owning it we had it serviced because there was no charge in it. We had owned it long enough at that point that we couldn't return it. Now, during the next warm season we discover the evaporator coil needs replaced which is a $200 repair. We own several LG products in our home and this will be the last one. While contacting LG the customer service department told us the entire sealed system was covered for 5 years, but when our technician went to submit a claim they were told it wasn't covered. There is lots of inconsistent information from their customer service number. We found it to be a complete waste of two hours trying to navigate through the company at LG and that is only if you can find someone who speaks good enough English to answer your questions. DO NOT BUY ANY OF THESE PRODUCTS!!! STAY AWAY!!!!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for LG Electronics LP1111WXR 11,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner
I bought this unit in June 2012 after a friend of mine had it in her living room and said it worked wonders. Since my apartment complex does not allow window a/c's, I figured this would be perfect. It worked fine last summer. However, after using it for the first time this summer just this past week, the unit is now leaking water on to my bedroom floor. The water is SUPPOSED to collect in the internal tank and then the unit will alert you that the tank is full and you can drain it from the back port, but this is not happening. The water is leaking out the FRONT of the unit on the bottom. Called The Home Depot and they said it sounds like the hose that runs from the compressor to the tank is either crimped, broken or fell off. How this happens when I never moved the unit from where it was after last summer is beyond me. Someone now has to come take a look at it. Spent $429 on this and paid an additional $60 for a 2 year warranty. It worked for only one summer. Disappointed.Monday, December 23, 2013
