I haven't seen the electric bill yet so I'm giving this heater 5 stars. I had previously bought one of the propane Reddy Heaters (RLP50VA see my review on that) to heat my garage but that heater was completely unsuitable for that task. This one is perfect, it heats up the garage quickly and is quiet and clean. It is a 240v heater and requires a hardwired installation so is a little bit of a pain but I wired everything up and had an electrician friend come check out my work before I turned it on and all was OK. Needed a 30A dual pole circuit breaker and 10/2 wire along with a junction box and flexible connecting cable but it was worth the effort! My garage is a garage under (standard Colonial) 26x22 so the ceiling is insulated but nothing else is. Living in NH, a heated garage for working on the cars is pretty much a necessity and I would recommend this heater highly.

I built my woodshop which is well insulated (R19 in walls, R40 in ceiling) and about 460 square feet with 8 foot ceilings. Living in Iowa, I was skeptical whether this heater could do the job where it sometimes gets 10 to 20 below for several days in Dec and Jan. Those fears were alleviated.

If you are at all concerned that the heater can handle a level of cold that commonly reaches 33 below (wind chill) and -20 ambient temp, worry no more. I kept the heater on the third mark out of 10 and it maintained between 49 and 53 depending on the coldness of the night. When I went out to work, I turned it up to a tad beyond LOW and it leveled at 60 degrees. It's also very quiet in that I'm able to have a normal voice conversation with anyone present and we aren't really aware when it turns on. Very nice not have the smell of fuel oil in the air. I'm very happy with the purchase.

Edit as of 01-03-09. The local news just advised that here in my area, it is the 9th coldest December since 1897 when they started keeping track. They also said it is the second snowiest December on record. There were several days below 0 and a couple to -20 ambient temp which is common in those months any Winter. This small heater keeps up better than I thought it would.

Edit as of Dec of 2012 Unit still works like it was new. I'm now on my 5th Iowa Winter with this in the shop and haven't had any issue at all. I'd make the same decision tomorrow and highly recommend it.

I needed dependable heat for a small (480 sq/ft) woodworking shop. Prior to installing this unit I was using a Monitor kerosene heater which was plagued with mysterious 'shut-downs'. Because of limited space a wood stove was out of the question, so I gave this unit a try; it's more than adequate (I live in Maine) to maintain comfortable working temperatures even on the coldest of days. Got my first electric bill yesterday and it wasn't nearly as expensive to run as I had thought...adding maybe $100 to the total electric bill (and the unit is running 24/7)!

All in all, an excellent source of shop heat.

I purchased this heater for my 700 sq. ft. shop with 12' ceiling (well insulated). In the first hour it raised the temperature from 43 to 55 degrees (F). After two hours temp. was up to about 60F. I was impressed.

It is small, quiet, and produces great heat for its size.

Thermostatically controlled fan will cycle on and off until the ambient temperature is above 55 or so, then will run continuously until reaching desired temp.

Good heat with poor documentation. Documentation does not give a clue as to how to connect to today's 240v 4 wire connections.

The heater requires a 240v 30amp 3 wire connection. I have a 30 amp 4 wire outlet. Therefore, I purchased a 4 wire 240v dryer pigtail from Home Depot. Then I connected black to black, red to white, and green to green (ground). Black and red are the two incoming hot wires in newer 240 volt 4-wire arrangements...I presume. I am NOT an electrican.

The 4th wire (white) in this case is not needed. I capped the white wire and tied it off inside the heater.

Expect some smoke in the first couple of minutes...from oils on the heating elements, etc. It is a nice heater considering price and size.

I subtracted one star in my rating due to the poor documentation.

I spent a lot of time debating the type of heater for a three car garage well insulated, with 9' ceiling. In Oklahoma it does some times get pretty cold. However, when it is in the 20s outside my garage is warm and comfortable. The thermostat is great. I have the heater waving a wall so it never is blowing on me. I found it easy to install if your comfortable putting in 2 30 amp breakers and fishing some wire.

Actually, I did really well buying this and thanks to all the people who wrote reviews that helped me decide.

Purchased at a brick and mortar retailer. Worked well for about four months. It almost went out in a blaze of glory when it shorted out dramatically and smelled like it was catching fire. Fortunately I was in the room when it happened and was able to unplug it before it did any damage.

Simple to set up, small, and safe. Bought it for the 80-something mother-in-law's room. Push button controls on the unit, control it's operation and this is good as I hate searching for my mother-in-law's lost remotes (bad enough that I have to find her cane or teeth). My wife moves it to the shower for the 80-somethings comfort --so it is easily carried too. A little more money for this one but it is quiet, easy, more-safe, portable, and WORKS!

Honest reviews on Bionaire Mini-Tower Ceramic Programmable Digital Thermostat Heater

I bought this for our boys room. I liked that it had a digital programmable thermometer. The one we had only had heat settings in increments of 5 degrees. I wanted to keep my sons room at 68 degrees so I bought this model. It goes on and off a lot and you can't see the temperature that it is set at unless you turn on a light. Next time I buy a space heater I want the display to be back lit. It is in our 4 month old's room now and it doesn't seem to wake her up (she's a heavy sleeper just like her brother. I've vacuumed and the dogs have barked etc. while she's slept since she was born). It keeps the room warm but it drives me nuts when I am nursing and it keeps clicking on and off every minute or so (even when the door is shut). It seems like it is wasting energy. I would buy a different one next time.

I've been using this starter kit for years now and love it. I am a long time X10 user and these are much more reliable. Programing was easy. I did purchase a programmer right from the start. Lots of features. If you like X10, you'll love these. They are what X10 should have been. I have had one 'noise' problem though. I have a 12v halogen track fixture who's electronic transformer started to generate so much noise that even these signals couldn't get through. They were on the same breaker. The Electronic transform finally failed all-together and the new one doesn't cause the problem. Just in case, though, I installed a noise block on the transformer when I replaced it. To put this in perspective, had I been using X10, the entire system would have stopped working when the transformer started generating noise, instead of just one circuit. These are easy to use, very noise immune, have a high quality look and feel. I recommend them.

So I started with the basic plug-in starter package (Dkit-02) and it works great for my living room. I decided to change out more switches in my home so I picked up a basic starter package.

First, this wasn't as easy to install as the plug-in package but it still wasn't too bad. You have to know how to install a wall switch. Using the existing wiring from the old switch, you just use a wire nut to put these in. Pretty easy to learn if you haven't done so but remember to turn off the breaker first. If you know nothing about electrical wiring read up on it or have a friend/electrician do this for you.

So after the install, these were pre-configured to work with my four button switch that came with my plug-in package. It worked fine but I wanted to customize my installation.

I ended up having to get a programmer because I wanted to change some things (The buttons on the controllers have a lot of functions that can be used). Once I had them up and running, they work great.

I also picked up the timer module that simply automated sells. The front porch switch is controlled by the timer module. It comes on at dusk and goes off at dawn every day (it also accounts for daylight savings and calculates dawn and dusk depending on the time of the year for my location). I don't even have to touch it anymore. I can turn my living room and dining room lights on or off from any room in the house. I can also shut the upstairs lights off. On vacation mode I have a few of the lights come on and off at random.

It's pretty cool stuff!

I had to call tech support a few times to ask questions but there was no wait, they knew what they were doing, and they were very friendly. My type of support!

I can't say enough good things about these products. I definitely recommend them.

I bought this for a cat bed for an outside feral cat that has adopted me. She sleeps in the garage and I put this in her bed when it gets cold out. It warms up nicely and does get soft when it's warm. I don't think it really stays warm for 12 hours. Usually I check on her around 6:00 in the morning and it's already started to firm up again and is only slightly warm, but that could be from her sleeping on it. That's the only disappointment I have with this product, is that it really doesn't stay warmer longer. However, it is definitely better than that round microwavable disc that I bought last year. The cover is tough and easy to clean. As an inexpensive bed warmer, that doesn't require any electricity, I do recommend it.

I purchased this for our new cat to keep her warm during the winter nights but I don't think it's what I was looking for. It just doesn't hold heat long enough. I warmed it up at about 9:30 pm (it doesn't get squishy, the stuff inside goes form rock hard to liquid, nothing in between)and placed it under a towel that was folded into fourths length-wise in the hope that it would be more comfortable and maybe stay warm and soft a little longer. At 7:00 in the morning it had hardened and I could just barely feel the slightest amount of heat when I put my hand directly on it. The cat loves it when it's warm, I just wish it had lasted longer. It's also not big enough, you'd need two to make a full platform for the cat.

I bought these because I have a feral cat colony. I have used the round hard disk ones for a couple of years and just love them but thought these might be more comfortable.

They do not hold the warmth for more than about 3 hours. The other ones hold it all night. Really a waste of money if you are going to use them for longer periods of heat. I tried heating them for 8 minutes which is double the average time and still they just don't hold the heat for long. I will buy more of the original ones.

After one month they are leaking around the seams. I do not know if that stuff is poison or not but I feel it is not safe. They are going in the garbage and I can't get a refund according to the refund policy.

Honest reviews on K&H Microwavable Pet Bed Warmer, 9-Inch x 9-Inch

I purchased this product about a month ago. Following the instructions, I heated it by minute increments to get the proper amount of time to get it squishy and warm. On my microwave it was 8 minutes. It feels like a liquid gel on the inside. There is a slight plastic smell on it but it goes away after a few days.

I bought two, one for each of my cats. One really is too small for a normal sized cat to lay on, maybe just one half of their body. At first my cats were hesitant because of the water sloshing sound and the smell of it but now they are used to it. My cats sleep with me, so I just tucked it under the comforter where they laid by my feet and they snuggled up on it. Like other reviewers have noted, it doesn't retain heat for 12 hours as advertised. In fact, it starts to cool within two hours and hardens into a brick by morning. I swear you can whack someone with it, how hard it is, haha. Anywho, it was a decent enough product in my eyes, until it started leaking. I'm not talking burst open and flooded out the contents or anything, but a slow ooze that shows up as a ring around the edges. At first I thought maybe I put it on a wet plate in the microwave, but not true since it didn't feel damp. I changed the bed sheets a couple of times and each time I noticed a greasy square shaped stain from where the warmer was. Gross. Luckily it seems to wash out in the laundry, but stillI paid over $50 for the two of them and shouldn't have to deal with a greasy heating pad. Too bad I just missed the return deadline. :(

I purchased this for our adopted feral at my office. Even though we are in Florida it has been really cold, so I thought this would be perfect for her outdoor shelter. So glad I tested it first. Followed the instructions and it only stayed warm for 2-3 hours, tested it again same result. BTY, I tested it indoors, so outside it would not have stayed warm even that long.

This is a very nice stove. It is very heavy. This was delivered in an 18-wheeler, so it couldn't come up my drive-way to be home delivered. They had to drop in off at my mother's house and then we had to take it the rest of the way. Make sure you have a hand truck! The truck driver did call me about 30 minutes before it was delivered. The stove heats up my house nicely. The window is a little hard to clean, but it is nice to be able to view the flames. Be careful when moving the stove around to get it in line with the flu. We scooted it and one leg ripped off. It is still a nice stove, shipped on a pallet, covered with a shrink wrapped box.

I do wood working a unheated attached garage 20'x24', this item works fine for my 2 car garage, heats up quickly to take chill off. The control knob is located on the rear of the unit, if was located in front would be easier to adjust and see the heat # setting but is only a minor item. The Small size and cord wrapping around handle makes storage easy. I live in western Washington so the winter temp is fairly mild, cooler climate is a question. 5 star if knob on front

Quickly warms my 225 square feet in no time on the lowest setting. I have every confidence that this heater would perform well in a larger area on any of the higher settings.

If you're familiar with convection heating, this is a very good value for the money that will be providing my heat for years to come.

For the misinformed, this is not a ceramic style heat (Not immediate). Rather this will warm the space over time with a much more natural warmth that will fill the entire space and not dry out the air. Great for people with sensitive allergies or skin where forced air heating (Ceramic/Electric Heating) dry the air considerably and circulate dust.
