I generally only leave reviews for the best and the worst products that I buy here on Amazon. Thankfully, this product falls into the former.

I am pretty hard to please in general but this little stove won me over right from the start even while still removing it from it's box.

Growing up in wintry New England, we heated our modest little house in the sticks with wood stoves. This was not without it's unpleasantries. Lugging wood into the cellar and enduring bloody noses and dry skin from the moisture-sucking heated air was never my favorite but I must admit there is nothing like the sound and smell of a wood stove on a cold January night.

After living in Southern California for the last 13 years, I recently grew nostalgic for my childhood. I live in an apartment and a real stove is not possible so I looked for solutions that didn't require venting or actual wood and came across the Duraflame 4600 btu.

It's built solidly, with a nice patina that does resemble an old cast iron stove. It's also a very good size, not too big and not too small. Perfect for the corner of the living room in my 700 sq foot 1 bedroom apartment.

I was rather dubious as to the quality of the 'flames' so I wasn't expecting much when I flipped on the switch (nicely hidden by a solid glass door) to activate them. It turns out they look very realistic. The coals even look convincing. I sat with a glass of wine and watched them dance for at least 30 minutes, happily reminiscing.

After being completely spell-bound, I remembered to test out the heater part finally. It has a blower underneath that directs the heat out the front. I tested underneath, behind, on top, and found no heat except where it should be. That's reassuring to me, knowing that the heat will always be confined to a cone coming from underneath the front.

I even placed a candle on top and left it there for 10 mins. It did not melt at all. It does get hot around the circumference of the bottom surface but that's about it.

All in all, I am extremely satisfied with this product. It's going to be a big hit at my Christmas dinner party. Buy this thing immediately. you won't be disappointed.

I am already showing it off to my neighbors ...

This is a video of my heater. The flames look really real!Everyone who sees it loves it and wants one.I am now able to keep my central heater at 70, and still have a warm home. Heats from the floor up so your feet and legs stay warm, which central heat doesn't always do that well. I absolutely love this heater/fireplace! Perfect size for bedroom, bathroom or small living room(like I have, 20"x20")Why didn't I get one of these sooner!

Update! 1/5/2012...

I had this heater almost a year now. And I just wanted to say...I STILL LOVE IT! Small size, but puts out the heat. I have a 870sq ft home. And this little fireplace keeps at least half of it warm. It may heat all. But I keep the bedroom doors closed dues to little dogs in the home. But the little ones(dogs) all really enjoy the fireplace as well. Bottom line. Get it. You won't be disappointed!

I bought this item yesterday. Ordered it through Northland Metal for $79. Quite nice and compact. You can use the flame/log without turning on the heat.

It gives a very nice fireplace efffect coming from a small stove. The heating element is very powerful and warms up the room quite fast. I bought because of the terrible cold winter we had last year here in Tampa, FL. I suspect it will be another cold few months of temps in the 30s and 20s. So I bought it for that reason. You won't be sorry very nicely made.

Honest reviews on Duraflame Vent-Free Metal Stove - 4600 BTU, 400 Sq. Ft. Heating

I purchased this stove instead of the Dimplex model that is almost identical because I liked the design of the door better and I thought that Duraflame was a respected brand. I know someone that has the Dimplex and absolutely loves it. I read the reviews of the Dimplex and there are tons of them and almost all extremely positive. I thought the fact that there were only a few reviews for this stove might be because it was newer to the market. The stove looks fine. Was delivered in good condition, and is easy to just plug in. No assembly of any kind. The flame is a resonable facsimile of a real fire, so all that is fine. But within a few weeks the motorized parts that rotate to make the look of fire started to make noise. Also, the heat blower makes noise. So the fire plus the blower make some pretty audible noise. If you turn off the heat blower you have what is essentially an annoying noise that actually makes me have to turn the TV up louder. Sometimes the noise gets quiter. Sometimes it gets louder. It would be too much trouble to return it so I'm stuck with it. I'll never order something this large from Amazon again.

Review of Duraflame Crackling Log Set in Black DFL001

Customer Ratings:

Unless the logs are used in a dark room you can't see any glow in them at all. The picture used to promote the product is not at all what it looks like if there is any light in the room, even a dim one. The "crackling" sound is more like broken springs than the sound of real burning logs.

I am VERY disappointed in this Duraflame product and unless this one happens to be defective, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

Quality of product is poor! It is not one of China's better efforts! When attaching leg the thin plastic cracked and broke and I was forced to super glue that leg to the log set! Maybe I was expecting at least a little more for the price! If you purchase this product be prepared to repair or replace!

I'm getting another one, I love this sucker so much.

Energy efficient at 400 and 800 watts vs 1500 for a convection heater.

In short, if you:

1) stay pretty much in one spot during the day

2) have high ceilings or your home is really hard to heat

3) have dust allergies

4) use a heater just during your waking hours and pile on the warm blankets at night

5) are not bothered by some light being emitted from your heater

6) have cats or dogs

7) love how it feels when the sun warms up your clothes and skin

8) are concerned about energy efficiency

9) need a heater that won't burn anyone who bumps into it

then this is the space heater for you!

I'm a graduate student living alone in a one-bedroom apartment. Here in Reno, I pay more than $100 for the electricity during the winter season. I figured out that this is probably due to my heaters which are electric-powered. My apartment has a built-in electric heater and I have a Delonghi heater (DFH 333MT). I have no complaints about the Delonghi heater except that it consumes lots of electricity(1500 W) and I just don't like the feeling of the warm air plus it makes me feel dry.

To save money I decided to invest in this little heater and I was not disappointed. It just consumes 400 W (low setting) and 800 W (high setting).

To give you an idea of how good it is, I turned off the built-in electric heater in my apartment and the Delonghi heater and I did not feel cold at all even in the LOW SETTING.

The lights at LOW SETTING is not as bright as I thought. But in case you cannot sleep with its emitted light, I suggest that you put a blindfold. The light feels good. This device has also a safety mechanism. If you tip it, it will stop working and if it reached a certain high temperature,it will automatically stop. To sum up, a good buy.

This heater is made in China. I just hope that it will last for a long time.

UPDATE: In colder evenings, you need to use the HIGH SETTING. The light is too bright but the heat is enough esp. if you are at least 3 feet apart from it. In my case, I still need to turn on my apartment's built-in electric heater but only at LOW SETTING. This Soleus heater is just not enough to heat my whole room which is connected to the kitchen.

Well, it has been more than a year since I updated this review. I now live in Moscow, ID (from Reno, NV)doing postdoctoral studies and this heater still works!

If you want heat, this one's for you. It puts out more heat at 400 watts than most 1500 watt heaters, so it'll cost far less to run. I haven't even set it on high (800 watts) because I haven't needed to. Some may object to the light it emits but that's like complaining about the sun because it's too bright if you stare at it. You can set it up peripherally or at a slight angle away from your direct vision, avoid the light and still get plenty of heat. Buy this now while it's on sale and you can get free shipping. I don't know how long these halogen bulbs last, but it really does the job.

UPDATE (11/07):

After using this for two years, it's easily paid for itself. However, I bought one for a friend and it and its replacement (covered by Soleus under warranty) were defective. The third one she received seems to be OK, however she prefers the Presto Parabolic Heater since she claims it heats a wider area and doesn't emit as much light. The Presto costs half again as much ($75), may do slightly better but also uses more electricity, so figure out what's right for you. I should add I don't use the Soleus at night, it's less intrusive and more efficient to use an electric blanket instead.

UPDATE (1/13):

Still going! I bought another Soleus a few years ago, slightly different model but both work like charms. I'm convinced this is the best value in space heaters and I'm glad to see they're still available. Look for the best deal and get yours while they last things this good are usually phased out for more expensive/lesser quality "upgrades".

Honest reviews on Soleus Air MS-09 Oscillating Reflective Heater

I bought this product to help heat a large loft. Knowing that hot air would simply blow away and be expensive, I thought I would focus on something energy efficient that could target a location. So here's a little breakdown.

The effective range of this product is limited. We keep it about 5-8 feet away to heat an one person at a time. It really has a max target area diameter of about 4-5 feet from that distance. Left on for a while in a small room, Like a bathroom...it does eventually heat up that space, but otherwise it's for very target heating.

Positives:

Warm instantly when in target area

Not hot to touch

energy efficient

Negative:

Really bright, you can't look at the thing for more than a few seconds when it's on high. We refer to it as "turning on the sun." Imagine a 50 watt bulb with a silver reflecting dish pointed at you.

See the angle that it's pointed in in the picture? It's slightly up. It's as low as it goes, it doesn't go directly straight or down why does this matter? We'll because say I want to heat myself from behind so it doesn't blind me I can't place it on a shelf or table.. It has to be on the floor and every chair I know has a back...so no help there. It will always shine on you. I'd also use it to heat my bed but I can't point it down at the covers. So basically it must be on the floor only.

Overall, a good product if you need target heating, from the floor, and can deal with brightness.

This beats oil filled heaters, ceramic heaters, and any others.

First because its efficiency. It runs in two modes 400w and 800w.

Which are a lot less than usually 1000w space heaters. at 400w i am

very comfortable.

second, I LOVE THE LIGHT.

there are studies where people get depressed living in dark regions

or seasonal changes. This thing give you kind of sun-like beam

and is very toasty and comfortable enough for me to go day dream.

very relaxing.

People think since it's halogen life span of the heater won't be more very long. However, upon close inspection the coil of the halgen is very

thick. It's not like halogen lamp that you use for lighting purposes.

It will last minimum 3 to 5 years if you are careful with it and don't shake it or move it around.

We bought the ice and easy floating tank heater last year at a local feed store for about 25 dollars and it has proven itself to be a very practical and affordable way to keep outside water from freezing.

It has a built in thermostat that only kicks on when the temperature goes below 32.

I purchased this to replace my old water heater for one of my horse troughs, and it works fine but what brilliant engineer decided to bring the cord out of the bottom? A minor criticism ,but it never floats flat since the cord comes out of the bottom. Also, although the cord never touches the coil underneath it is pretty close to it.

Bought this fireplace for a newly remodeled area of our living room in October. We heat with an oil furnace and wanted to supplement to save money this Winter. We have not had a cold Winter in New England so far, but it has been cold enough to determine that I rarely hear the furnace turn on. I keep it on low and it heats up our living room area very quickly(about 650 sf) and a lot of heat goes upstairs too. Running our ceiling fans helps to circulate the warm air. We have run this unit everyday in the morning when I get up and all evening when I get home from work. My gas bill has increased 10 dollars a month. I can only imagine how much oil we have saved using this fireplace. The cabinet looks like a well made piece of furniture and it adds a lot to my home. My two cats take turns sleeping on top of it. There is a little smell to it when it is operating, but not any worse than when my gas oven is on in the kitchen. Very cozy watching the flames and feeling the warmth.

I would have given it 5 stars but I have to say that the controls are not that easy to operate as you have to get down on the floor and use two hands to turn it on and off. A remote would have been nice. Another thing is that it should come with the heater fan already installed not as an add on for another 100 dollars. Heat rises and there really isn't any way to disperse the heat efficiently without using a fan. Also, I had to have my plumber run the gas line, which cost another 200 dollars, but he was nice enough to put the whole thing together for me and helped figure out how to run it. We both had to read through the instructions several times to figure it out.

All in all, I would recommend this product. We have really enjoyed the ambiance it creates and the savings it has already provided.

Honest reviews on ProCom Compact Vent-Free Dual Fuel Fireplace with Corner Conversion

We purchased this product for our Florida room. It has turned a room that was unusable in the winter into a favorite winter retreat! It looks beautiful! The wood is real, not laminate. The fire is relaxing. We all clamor to be the one to get to sit closest to it!

Pro's out weigh the Con's

We used the corner conversion, which is just a triangle of wood, two support bars, and a wall mounted bracket. It was easy to do and looks natural. I was concerned about how much weight it could handle, but it seems to be able to support ample amount.

The thermostat is a little touchy. At first we thought it controlled the flame size, and to some degree it does. Setting one is low flame, setting two is medium flame, and setting 3 is high flame. Setting 4-6 is the same as three. But what we realized is that it is actually controlling the thermostat. The flame will shut off once it reaches a certain temperature. However, this was one thing we changed. The thermostat is located at the bottom back of the fireplace, which does not make it very accurate. I would suggest moving it higher, if your fireplace never seems to turn off or over heats the room.

As with any vent-free fireplace, it makes water. You will get condensation on any cold surfaces (like windows). The benefit to this is the house is somewhat humidified. The bad news is you will have to wipe down your windows & window sills. We actually really enjoy the moisture in the air.

This unit does not come with a blower. We have found it doesn't need one. We leave our ceiling fan (blowing up instead of down) on low. This is all it needs to evenly heat the room. Without the fan, the room heated fine. It just took a little longer for it to warm it all up.

This product does hook up to natural gas, so you will need to purchase any of the pipe that would connect your natural gas to the fireplace. And have the skill to connect the new pipe to an existing line. Also, as with any natural gas fires, it will have a bluish hue to the flame at the bottom and an orange hue to the flame at the top. We think that is still far prettier then no flame at all!

Reviews of Pelonis Personal Mini Fan Forced Heater 3 Heat Settings-adjustable

Customer Ratings:

These space heaters will turn off for various reasons. I live in a leaky apartment with no heaters. This is enough to heat a small apartment like mine, but as of this morning I have absolutely had it with this heater. This is the coldest it's been this winter and I can't have this thing turning off while I'm sleeping. That's the whole reason I woke up and am writing this; I hate waking up with scratchy lungs from the freezing cold. I'm giving this product 3 stars because some of you might want a space heater that turns it's self off. I have noticed that it will turn off for the the following reasons: if it falls over onto it's face (which is great because who wants their floor to melt?), if there is anything too close in front of it, and if their is too much moisture in the air.

I purchased this around November 2012 and it died today while burning it's plug and my wall socket. I will have to replace the wall plugs and return the heater. It was a noisy heater, yes but it did get warm. It was NOT on when it somehow started to burn on half the plug. Thank goodness I smelled burning plastic and unplugged it before any actual fire. I will not buy this brand again if I can help it.

I have not had the problems that Moniker reports in another review. In an effort to keep down heating costs, I've decided to try space heaters this year, and so far, the Pelonis heater has worked perfectly. I've kept it on almost all the time. This does not mean that it's been pouring out heat the entire time. For much of the time, it's been idle, waiting for the temperature to dip low enough to cause the heater to come on. And it's worked perfectly.

I use this heater in a relatively small room--about 120 square feet--with small animals that I don't want exposed to too much cold at night. So far, all is great. I have two minor quibbles, but they are truly minor, at least when compared to the cost (under $20 when I bought it). The first quibble is that the thermostat is not very accurate, and there is no degree setting, meaning that I cannot set the thermostat for 74 degrees or anything like it. I have to set the thermostat by feel. The second quibble is that the fan itself is not all that strong. I've tried to use just the fan in order to test it, and let's put it this way: I don't think I'll be using this heater in the summer to try to keep cool. Still, as a heater for a small room, it's worked perfectly.

One additional note: As I write this, there is one other review, which reports that the fan shuts off if there is too much moisture in the air. I live in a dry climate, so I cannot say one way or the other whether excessive moisture presents a real problem.

Best Haier CPN14XH9 14,000 BTU Portable Room Heat/Cool Air Conditioner Deals

Customer Ratings:

To be fair, the unit does well on cool days (below 85). On hotter days, when you really need it, it barely keeps my 350 sq ft. appartment at 80. This is not my idea of comfort. In addition I don't cook in the apartment and I don't have massive southern exposure either so those excuses are not valid. This unit simply doesn't live up to the 14000 BTU rating (considering entire houses run just fine on 2 ton units). Called customer service today and they'll send a technician over, we'll see what happens but I don't think they'll consider it faulty. My impression so far is save your money and buy something better.

Update: Last time I reviewed this AC I'd just bought it. Obviously the technician didn't find it to be faulty he just said I was expecting too much with the weather outside (it was 95 or so outside). I've had it for 2 years now and it keeps the apartment (350-400 sq feet BTW) cool enough (72-74 degrees) on days where it's mildly hot (mid 80s) outside but it consistently fails to live up to the 14,000BTU rating when it's hotter and will leave the apartment at 80-85 degrees or so if it's getting to 95-100 degrees. I've kept it mainly because:

1) I'm at work most of the time and get home at night so this AC's failure isn't as annoying as it could be : )

2) I'd never get my money back

3) I suspect many floor standing models are just as poorly made and I really don't have many windows that I care to block. How much money will I waste to find one that works a little better?

I hope this helps.

I'll keep it short... This air conditioner is made with the cheapest materials possible. I bought this air condition last year, and three months later the fan broke. I opened up to see if I could do anything about it (and to confirm that it was in fact the fan the was causing the trouble), it turned out that it was in fact the fan that broke (basically shattered into pieces) and most of the material inside was STYROFOAM and cheap plastic...

I have used this unit for about 5 years. It has worked great as a backup unit at my small store when the main ac broke. I live near the ocean and window units rust away in no time. This unit is indoors and hooks up in minutes. It's fantastic for our older shore home because it can easily be moved from room to room. I have found it works just great in 90* temps because I used it last month during a heat wave. The heating feature is really nice because It will take the chill off the house in early morning without turning the heat on. My 95 year old mother loved it because she could keep the room she was in warmer than the rest of the house, great for us. This unit may not be for everyone, which might be why some don't like it. I love it and would buy another one.

Fairly easy to install in the wall mount of an old heater. This is a simple heater, with a single on-off switch plus thermostat all in one control.

Kicks out some real heat at the 4kw level. we put it on a timer and had it come on and off automatically, problem was the fan wasn't allowed to cool the heat coils down enough and then it would trip the high heat sensor. The it wouldn't start back up without hitting it's reset. Bad application for it. The fan has to cool down the coils after the termostat is satisfied.

Buy Honeywell - SureSet 1500W Digital Oscillating Ceramic Heater, Black

Customer Ratings:

This is a reliable space heater that puts out a fair amount of heat. The thermostat controls work (more or less) like any other heater -whatever you select, when the temperature around the heater reaches that level, the unit shuts off. As long as you don't expect it to correctly monitor room temperature, you're fine. We have had ours for a couple of years now and after about 18 mos the oscillating gears started falling apart, making clicking noises and leaving little pieces of plastic behind. It is still usable but not with oscillation. It is also noisy (loud fan) and is only used by us as a backup heater when other options are not available (ie one of our radiant flat panels died).

It is very easy to use and makes perfect hot water. Most of my friends who see it have never seen anything like it. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other brands and models but it sure is great and looks great; attractive water level indicator; high quality made; made in Japan. Just a simple white oyster color makes it very pleasing on the countertop. Just enough controls make it interesting but it's ultimately simple to use. When you refill it with water it knows enough to reboil automatically so you don't have to push any buttons. When the temperature gets to correct level it does not play any funny songs.

At night if it still has enough water in it, I just leave it on, and the water stays at the 194 temperature, which is where we like it in the morning. If I refill at night I push the 6 hour button and it will do it all starting six hours later. So operation can be very simple, just fill with water and after awhile push the buttons to dispense hot water. And the water does not have any strange flavors, just pure delicious tea-friendly oatmeal-friendly, soup-friendly hot water. Mine is made in Japan and purchased from a local Asian Market in San Rafael.

I've used it for about 1 year and it works well. It's made in China but its quality is pretty good.
