I had to patch the catalytic converter on my 1993 Crown Vic and this product did the job! It hardens up over night and appears to be tougher than kryptonite! You will need to wrap something around the patch area to hold the Thermosteel in place until it dries overnight but then it is super tough and very very heat resistant. Thanks Thermosteel!

Used this to finally patch and attach my Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker pan handle that needs replacing every year or so.. (see my post on that) I wrapped it in wire mesh, installed a stud rather than use their screw and fashioned a conforming handle with this. All I can say is the flames from the stove don't seem to effect it at all and it is very strong. Hard to mix and can be runny. Appears to be a mixture of epoxies, glass and resins. But unlike low temp stuff it doesn't seem to melt, crack or expand with high heat. Tested temp at the pot handle and it was 720F.

not many products work well on exhaust system repairs. this product although, can take the heat. there are a few other products like this one, but none I've seen, sell it in this amount. One of these cans can do a lot of repairs. the unique water based formula consisting of steel and ceramic paste is ideal for high temp applications. proper surface prep. is key.

It is difficult to work with, you have to keep mixing it up, at times it will be too watery and you will have to let it dry out, and at times it will be too solid and you will have to add some liquid. I used my hands to force it around the cracks of a heavily leaking exaust header pipe and it fill the gap and got rock hard. Only problem is here I am buying more because, well one tin wasn't enough for my old truck. Sure beats paying hundreds of dollars to get it all replaced though.

I was a little concerned about buying a dozen filters at over $100 without trying one first. I've been very pleasantly surprised. They are every bit as good as, if not better than, the Filtrete "Micro Allergen" filters that I normally use (which cost about 50% more.) These filters are structural sound, in fact, I think they are more sturdy than the Filtrete filters. That is the characteristic that I was most nervous about as I've previously had discount filters (from other manufactures) buckle and collapse inside my ducts. The filtering media itself also appears to be high quality. I've had them installed for several weeks now and everything appears to be working well. I will definitely buy Nordic Pure filters again.

This works so much better than the brush model. For those of us who have the long skinny filter the curves downward, this slips in there and the lint stays on the brush. The other model with the long, cone shaped wiry brush just makes a mess and doesn't bring all the lint out with it.

First, it was too fat to fit into my dryer vent so i could not use it there. However, it was very good for cleaning tops of ceiling fan blades, as it is bendable, so I will use it for that. Unfortunately, the microfiber does not remove from the handle so I guess it will have to be hand washed. Would much prefer something that could be machine washed.

This vent brush didn't work very well. Whatever lint it pulled out of the vent was almost impossible to remove from the brush. Too much trouble I returned it.

I bought the 3-plate warming tray as a present for my Mom earlier this year. I figure it'll come in handy for meals at holidays or family gatherings with many dishes. I've tried it out myself a few times. Here are my thoughts:

* It works as advertised-you plug it for around 8 minutes to heat it up, and the food on it really stays warm for about an hour. (I timed it.)

* This is important: Plates with perfectly flat bottoms work better. More surface area in contact with the warming tray.

* The power cord is very short. If you plan on plugging in the warming tray while it's sitting on your dining table, you may need an extension cord.

* There is no ON/OFF switch. You turn it off by unplugging it. So you can't just leave the tray plugged in all the time on a counter somewhere.

* Presentation-wise, the warming tray looks nice. Not too cheap-looking. No problems with leaving it on the dining table when your guests come.

* When it says "3-plate", it means 3 individual-sized plates. With larger serving plates, you might manage only 2 plates. Knowing this, if I were to buy this tray again, I would probably get the 4-plate version.

The cordless warming tray lived up to my expectations. I am enjoying not having to cover the prepared plates to keep them warm. The tray is attractive on the table, not too wide and cumbersome. The sides are contoured for easy moving around; however, it is a little tight for three dinner plates.

Best Deals on Cordless Warming Tray

This hot tray has the advantage over the old Saltons of having nice contemporary styling and not needing to be plugged in after it has heated, which means you can put it on a table or buffet with no nearby outlet. The large size has pluses and minuses: you can fit several dishes on it, but it's hard to find a place to store it as it won't fit in standard cabinets. It's also high off the table--a bit bulky in that regard. The surface is gleaming stainless steel, not glass like the old ones, but this apparently scratches, so be very careful placing dishes on it. Also a bit pricey--you can find used Saltons online for a fraction of the price.

Honest reviews on Cordless Warming Tray

I bought this to use on Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath when cooking is not permitted. I am using the tray as an electric blech (I also have it on a timer to conserve electricity), and it works GREAT! I took hot food out of the oven Friday before candles, placed it on the warming tray, and covered it with kitchen towels. The food was still piping hot when we ate 2+ hours later. Even better, the tray warmed refrigerator cold food to pleasantly warm-enough-to-eat on Saturday. I placed the dishes on the tray at about 8am, and the food was warm for lunch by about 12 or 1. My approach to halacha may be different from the norms in your community, so please take this just as "been there done that" advice, and consult your rabbi re: halacha. I can't comment on the product's durability, etc, since I've only had it a few weeks, but I am thrilled with how it works so far. It fits 3 9x11 pans easily.

I already had this exact same warmer which I originally bought a few years back at Bed, Bath & Beyond. This largest version, the TWT-40, 1000 watt, is awesome. I have used it at Thanksgiving, and for extra-large lasagna pans catered in, hot dips at parties, etc. You can leave it plugged in and the food will actually sizzle. If you heat it up 10-15 minutes and use it cordless style, it will keep your food HOT for an hour plus. They are very well constructed, compact & nice looking. I ordered 2 more on amazon, and they are perfect. I have borrowed my sister-in-laws expensive chafing warmers--heavy duty stainless steel. They are beautiful and work great, BUT if you have to use several of them, they require cleaning, and they are heavy and tricky to manipulate in the sink. No fun when you're tired at the end of a long night of entertaining. No need for that with these cordless warming trays; all you do is wipe them down. That's what convinced me to buy these instead. I'm very satisfied and highly recommend!

I wish reviewers would state how long they have owned the product. I waited to review because, of course, a product that breaks less than 3 months in doesn't deserve a 5 star rating. I will come back and update this review when I get more info on how it can be fixed and how much of a hassle that will be. It is too big and heavy to send in for repair.

I really liked it at first. It's nice looking, and has rollers. It was ideal for fall heating, and as a supplement to the furnace in really cold weather. I am using my furnace way less. It has added bonuses of a timer delay start (so can have it go on shortly before I get up) and a timer delay off.

However one week short of having had it 3 months (and not in the dead of winter, though we had a cool autumn) it suddenly turned off. I cleaned the filter and thought I'd be all set, but no. It will run for a while and then turn off. So I'm back to using my mini heaters, and am waiting to hear from the manufacturer.

Update as of 1/8/13: Forget about warranty protection. The manufacturer is impossible to get in touch with.

It should also be noted that the description provided here is incorrectno, you cannot plug it into any 120V outlet.. it needs it's own 15 amp circuit. You might have several outlets that are on the same circuit. There is only one place downstairs in my house where I can give it it's own circuit, so this is something to check out before you buy.

Update as of 1/10/13: After filing a claim with Amazon that was just denied (as it was a third party seller) I finally received a call back from the manufacturer, and they said they will ship me parts so I can fix myself! (The unit itself says: "Caution: Do not open. No user-serviceable parts inside".) I'm not optimistic but that's the update, and I am shopping for a new little heater..like the Lasko or DeLonghi. I'm sad this one didn't work out; I really liked it for 2 1/2 months!

I needed a heater for my 30`x42` Workshop. In this shop, the ceiling is 16ft high at the center span and about 14ft high at the walls, so there is a large volume of air to heat.

The shop has 1.5" thick insulation before the steel siding. That's it. I also have sidelights that let the sunlight in. They run along the top edge of the 42' side so there is no insulation along those panels (about a foot tall x 42' long x 2 sides).

This is a great heater. You simply plug it into propane and an electrical outlet (it has a 3 prong 120VAC plug). There is no on-off switch so once its plugged in the fan and ignitor runs constantly, making a fan whooshing and then light buzzing sound. Turn on the gas at the tank, then push and hold the startup button the propane begins to flow and it sounds more like a small jet engine (not unbearable or difficult to talk over from 10 feet away, but the wooshing sound changes to a deep throaty sound).

Low is the 50,000 or so setting on a red arrow dial. High gives you the full 85k. The dial is a quarter turn dial, and in-between settings do work also.

In my shop its hard to work unless its about 40 °F. I wear three sweatshirts and sweatpants, plus a stocking cap. The heater can get my shop from 30°F to 40°F in about 30 minutes on the low setting. Getting it up into the mid 40s takes about the same amount of time above and beyond the first 30 min (again on low setting). The high setting works noticably faster. After that I usually turn it off because with the stocking cap and three layers, it's bearable and easier to work.

When its colder than about 25°F outside I will often restart the heater if working for more than a couple hours.

A 5 gallon BBQ tank will last 3-5 hours and a 7 gallon RV tank will last 5-10 hrs depending on my usage.

Upon the first few uses I did notice a small leak in one of the factory tightened/sealed fittings near the regulator. The owner's manual clearly states to check all connections with a bubble solution (soapy water) but I didn't actually "had to" do that. I should have because I had a small leak. It was easily fixed with Teflon tape and has stayed sealed for years now.

NOTE: I do run a carbon monoxide detector in my shop, which is recommended since this heater burns the propane directly (no vent to outside air). However, running the propane heater for even a few hours does not trip the detector with my tall ceilings. Your "mileage" may vary so be safe.

I would definitely recommend this heater its been reliable for three years or more and it works effectively.

I bought these for our tiny downstairs bathroom in our condo in the mountains, where it gets extremely cold because there is no heating vent in the bathroom. These little heaters really put out the heat, are quiet, and the small footprint enabled me to fit it in the corner of countertop right behind the sink, which works great because a)it warms your hands when you wash them and b) that is where the plug is. All the other room heaters I looked at were just too big, too expensive, or both. I really only needed one of these but because they were so inexpensive for two I got them and now have an extra for other cold spots. The thermostat is great too, you just heat the room to desired temp on high, then lower the dial and it will keep the room at desired temperature. This bathroom is getting a lot more use now.

Bought these primarily for bathroom that was cold. Thought would save other one for backup. One puts out enough heat for the bathroom and my bedroom. Put the other in my sons' room. Got so hot in there my son wanted to turn on A/C. Been in the 20's and 30's @ night and still have not turned on furnace. Bought a larger heater for my living room. I am so happy with these, I am buying more for backups. I only paid $9 for both on clearance and will gladly pay more for the second set. My electric bill has fallen drastically. But be careful. Cannot put these on same circuit. It WILL trip your breakers if you put on same circuit.

They don't take up much room and are easy to move from room to room. They don't put out a blast of heat just enough to take the edge off if you're close to them. One good thing about them is that they don't use as much power as other heaters. This is helpful in my old apartment building where the wiring isn't really designed to support a lot of modern appliances at the same time.

Honest reviews on Holmes HFHVP3 1200 watt Compact Heater Fan 2-Pack

I thought I was getting a deal when I bought two fans for 31.00 however the heating fans are the exact same price at target. My dog has knocked them both down and they stop working afterwards. I wait an hour and plug them in and they work majically again. The heat they produce works fine in my 1000 square foot house but are most definately not top quality. The heat that is produced cannot be felt no further than 5 ft. from the fan itself. It does have a thermostat but does not work unless u move it til it cuts off them move it about one milimeter til it cuts back on and it will eventually cut off once the room reaches 75 degrees. That is the only way I have gotten the thermastat to actually cut the heating fan off. When cutting it on and off I hear a metal scrubbing sound but it stops once the fan speeds up. All in all I have two fans that work for now I've had them 2 months and I don't see them lasting years like other quality products that may not even be made anymore. The fact that they are only 1200 watts a piece makes it a little better

These two littler heaters, are a great deal. I took one to work, my office is so cold and at times feels like the ac is on instead of the heat. You regulate tempeature by the dial on top, turn the dial until the unit starts to blow the heat out or turn the dail back down until it stops. The unit is very quite. The second one is for my bathroom which is now warm and comfortable when I get out of the shower. These are ideal for small spaces. I do recommend for safety, to unplug the heater when not in use because it doesn't have an on/off switch. Turning the dial until it either turns the unit on or off is not the same as an actual on/off switch. Think about it, when the room cools below the setting it will turn on and start running and you may not want that to happen. Unplug when not in use.
