We received an ecoquest safehearth heater for Christmas in 2008. My mother-in-law purchased one for her and one for my family. They worked well for the for the 3 to 4 months that we used them during the cold weather. I plugged mine in for the first time this winter and it will not will kick on, when it does it blows cold air. My mother-in-laws is doing the same thing. I called the company but since it is out of waranty, there is nothing that can be done to fix my unit. According the rep. from ecoquest, they do not service this unit, if it goes bad during warranty the company will simply send you a replacement, after that, you are on your own. Not only can they not repair the machine, they do not sell the parts so that someone else can. My mother in law paid $800 for two units and both of them are useless. Think twice about purchasing this heater, what a joke for customer service!!!!!!!!

We have had this heater for two years and use it every day 6-7 months of the year in our very chilly basement. We love the timer, the fact that it will maintain a certain temperature in a room and that it is safe for our children and pet. I do understand that the warranty has changed since we bought the unit. The dealer we bought it from told us that. That doesn't change the fact that we have had zero problems with this unit and we are very pleased with the safety and performance.

I don't own one of these units, but do own an Eden-Pure (a competitor). To the person who wrote that their 2 Safehearth heaters no longer work, try this: make SURE the filter for incoming air is clean. When these filters are dirty there is a sensor that doesn't allow the heat to come on (to prevent the unit from overheating internally) and the unit will then only blow cold air. Also, if you happen to have a very dusty environment try to clean further inside the unit (when it is unplugged), and try to clean the filters at least once a week. Hope this helps.

My mom bought me one of these overpriced behemouths and I hate it. It is so noisy I cannot stand to use it at night. When you want to turn it off it has to 'cool down' so it takes five minutes for it to turn off when you flip the switch. It does heat but not much better than any fifty dollar space heater you can buy online. Waaaaaaaaay overprices and I hate the Ecoquest company because there in not ONE PRODUCT my mom has bought from them that hasn't broken in a month or less. So far these heaters work, but if what a previous reviewer said is true that they can't service them, it is criminal to be selling these large things for them only to wind up in a landfill because they can't be serviced! Not very Ecofriendly! I think they should change the company name! All their products quickly become obsolete and wind up in landfills. They brainwash their dealers like a religion and perpetuate these lackluster products on them making them waste thousands of their own dollars on products that may intially work, but then require way to much servicing before they become obsolete and the company encourages you to scrap the old ones and buy their much 'new and improved' products. One of the biggest scam companies out there. I know because my mom is a dealer and they prey on their dealers.

The heat wire works, but the breaker doesn't fit any American breaker boxes, the thermostat doesn't fit any electrical boxes and is next to impossible to program and the foil tape is so thin and poorly made it is basically useless. This product is made for sale in another country, repackaged in english, and sold in the US.

Looks like a no brainer to install but haven't gotten to that step yet in the remodeling job. With no mat, it will take longer to lay it out, but with the savings over the easier method, we feel it was a good purchase. As retired people with a fixed income, we are always interested in the most economical choice.

The product came in two days and packaged well.

1,500 Watt Utility Heater - PUH792-UM Reviews

1,500 Watt Utility Heater - PUH792-UM
Customer Ratings: 2 stars

I purchased this to provide a bit of warmth while working in my uninsulated northern garage. I liked the very utilitarian appearance and have had good experience with the Patton brand. Unfortunately this unit just does not have enough output to be noticed in such an environment. The small, single-speed fan just does not move the heated air far enough away from the unit; to get any benefit from it I have to be right on top of it. I never expected it to heat the whole garage but I did expect it to provide some noticeable warming in a few foot radius. This it does not do. If you have a very small space that will contain the heated air better, you might find it acceptable. But generally I would advise looking for a larger-diameter blower with at least two speed settings.

Exactly as advertised and works great. One caveat, in the install instructions it fails to mention you have to unscrew (2 screws) from the circuit board and remove it from its holder to insert the cable. It adds about 1 minute extra to the install. Don't try to install it without removing the circuit board or you could damage your board and the switch. Perfect otherwise....

Reviews of Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater

Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
I wanted a quiet heater to use in my den in the evening. I watch TV in this room and didn't want a noisy heater that competed with it, forcing me to raise and lower the volume to adjust for a noisy heater fan. This heater is the quietest fan-forced unit I've tried, and I've tried quite a few. The only heaters quieter than this one would be the micathermic or oil-filled models. The micathermic ones only heat up the area directly in front of the panel and not the whole room, and the oil filled heaters take way too long to heat up.

Now for the bad news......the digital thermostat. First off, the settings are in five degree increments, rather than one degree. If I set it for 65 the heater brings the room up to about 68 then shuts off. That's fine, but then the room will drop to 63 or 64 and the heater doesn't come back on. I'm either going to be hot or cold. If I set the unit to 70, after reaching 75 degrees it still runs----totally unacceptable. If Holmes improves the thermostat they would have a decent little heater here. Oh, one other thing. There are two output settings, low and high. They only control fan speed. The heater uses 1500 watts at both settings, unlike most other models.

The heater portion of this unit performs admirably: fast heat generation, quiet fan good for warming small to medium-sized rooms in a short amount of time. The heater does eat a fair amount of current the manual rates it at around 13 to 14 amps, which may be a big deal if you're on a circuit with only a 15 amp breaker. It's also light and compact, so it's easy to carry from one room to another, and doesn't take up much space.

The downside is that some of the fancier features of this unit are unreliable the oscillating base tends to bind and gnash gears, making a loud cracking sound. It also seeps oil from the base. Also, the digital thermostat is inaccurate, and has a tendency to lose calibration over several hours. I've purchased two of these heaters, and I've noticed all three problems with both.

As a space heater, it fits the bill well. But be advised that you may not get full use of the other features that you are paying for.

I want to like this heater, it is so quiet. But, in thermostat mode on low heat, the unit shuts itself off and goes into reset mode, thinking it is overheating. What a shame, all 3 units failed miserably. Thermostat mode works fine on high heat, but I need low heat for a smaller space.

Honest reviews on Holmes HCH4954-U Whisper Quiet Twin Ceramic Heater

I get headaches from gas-powered wall heaters you usually see in older apartment units. I thought this might be a good deal for my bedroom. While it does the job, my electric bill TRIPLED in a month. This would be better for sparing use at your office or something. Look for a heater that is a little more energy efficient if electricity costs are important to you.

I got this little heater for my desk because I work on the cold side of the building. A couple of other coworkers had this model and were very happy with it, so I decided to try it too.

One deciding factor is that this unit looks good. There are cheaper heaters out there, but they all look like cheesy plastic. Being in a somewhat public area (I don't have my own office) the heater needed to look nice, and this one definitely fits the bill.

More importantly this heater works very well. As soon as you turn it on, you can feel the heat pouring out of it, with no hesitation. My toes are soon toasty and my fingers no longer frozen. Equally important is how quiet it is. On low setting I can't hear it at all, even when it was sitting right next to me! On high setting the fan is audible, but not distractingly so.

An interesting feature is what Holmes calls "Viziheat". Since there are no glowing coils inside this unit, it might be hard to tell if the grill might be hot. When you turn on this heater, the orange stripes appear on the grill as it heats up. You can see these in the product photo here. When the grill has cooled off it fades back to black. The grill seems to be the only thing that gets hot. When the unit is pumping out heat, you can burn yourself on the grill, but the surrounding plastic housing is surprisingly cool to the touch, which makes it easy to adjust its position safely.

My only complaint about this heater is how poorly the enclosed instructions explain how the thermostat works. This unit has what they call "1-touch" for heat settings. There's only one button on this thing and you press to turn it on, and repeatedly to achieve what temperature you want. Sounds easy, right? What's confusing, and what the instructions don't bother to mention, is what it means when the temperatures are lit up in red or green, sometimes both! It has multiple pages of warnings and safety instructions, but not a single word on why I feel no heat at all when a number is lit up in green by itself. I eventually figured it out, but still, a little less "don't touch the grill when it's hot" and more useful information please! It's sad how most companies are so paranoid about getting sued because a few lawsuit-happy idiots were dumb enough to hurt themselves. But anyway, if you're good at figuring out puzzles, you should have no problems deciphering how the heat settings work on this thing. Overall I'm happy with this heater.

Reviews of BISSELL ProHeat 2X Upright Deep Carpet Cleaner, 9200

BISSELL ProHeat 2X Upright Deep Carpet Cleaner, 9200
Customer Ratings: 3 stars
Buy Now
This is the first machine I have owned; however, it is among many I have borrowed over many years.

Assembling and acquainting myself with it took only 10 minutes.

I was very happy to buy this unit as the cleaning solution and water vessels are separate. So, I can rinse my carpets after cleaning them.

The heating unit works in just one minute after filling the water bladder and placing it back on the deep cleaner. Then...you are off and cleaning your carpets.

Using it on a 12' x 12' bedroom and a 14' x 25' great room was pretty easy and pleasureable. The result was perfection in a spotless carpet! Most importantly, a spotless carpet with little shampooing residue left behind compared to other cleaners.

Why not 5 stars as a rating from me?...Well, the following are the issues I have but am willing to deal with:

*** They say you can leave the cleaning solution in the tank until the next time you clean, which could be many months from now. I do not recommend this as the unit seemed to leak while the cleaning solution was left in the tank and the unit was merely sitting with the cord wrapped up. Simply dump the cleaning solution back into the bottle and rinse out the vessel.

*** Carpet fibers seem to adhere to the bottom of the unit behind the brushes. To avoid dislodging these fibers onto the carpet during cleaning, the bottom of the unit should be wiped down frequently.

*** To keep the unit in tip top shape, the rollers, sucking unit, water bladder, and cleaning solution vessel should be removed, rinsed, and allowed to dry thoroughly. Direction are given in the manual to remove all of these items properly; however, it requires 15 minutes of dismantling...then overnight to dry...then another 15 minutes to reassemble. Unscrewing screws is involved 4 screws...this was to access the front sucking nozzle and two rollers. To remove the water bladder and replace it seems to put a bit of wear on the bladder and I anticipate having to buy a replacement for this in the years to come. BUT...each piece that is rinsed off cleans up VERY easily and dries well.

*** The design of the water bladder-dirty water vessel is a bit odd. You fill a bladder (plastic) with hot tap water. The bladder is seated in a rigid plastic containment unit. It turns out this rigin plastic containment unit is the dirty water vessel. The water from the carpet is sucked in and resides on the outside of the clean water bladder. Clever design, but somewhat of a pain as the vacuum/ no vacuum trigger can be easily tripped if the unit bumps into furniture or you move it left or right to quickly. The reason seems to be the water sloshing around outside the bladder and inside the bladder flow and trigger the valve to prematurely open and stop the sucking. Not a huge issue, just an annoyance b/c you have to turn off the vacuum and jostle the unit a bit to get the valve to close again.

*** The placement of the accessory hose is awkward especially if you are a left-handed vacuumer. My leg would bump into the hose and the latch they have designed to secure it is not very good at keeping it secure. I had to reseat the hose 5 times during the cleaning of my two rooms... Again, an annoyance.

*** The wheels on the unit are large in diameter, which makes the unit very easy to maneuver even though it is heavy (I agree with a prior reviewer that heavy is good in a carpet cleaner). However, I question how well they are assembled to the machine as there seems to be some give left-to-right as you turn the unit...we'll see about this in the long run.

All in all, I am still quite satisfied with the unit as it does all that I wanted it to do. I am not sure that you would not have other annoyances with other brands as well...in other words, I do not think there is a perfect carpet cleaner as I have been researching them for weeks now...all of them seem to have issues in some way or another. But the issues I describe here versus the result in clean carpets...has me very happy to own the Bissell ProHeat 2X.

After owning Hoovers, I recently tried this model. I have been generally happy with my last two Hoover carpet cleaners and they have been durable for me. I used both TONS -the 1st one was a very early model that was still going strong after 5 or 6 years of hard use, and I replaced it with one that had rotating brushes. It also got years of use but I accidentally damaged it thru my negligence. (Used it in an unheated cabin, left it overnight, and it got well below freezing I broke the spray trigger when I impatiently tried to use it.) My last one still worked if you pushed the surge button and then pried it up again, but I decided to get a new one.

I purchased the Hoover 914-900, but it leaked before even starting to use it, so I returned it and bought a Bissell Proheat 2x. I liked that it seemed easier to clean the machine than the Hoovers, and that it had a rinse option, although not conveniently located. I noticed immediately with first use that it wasn't as good as even my old (trigger broken) Hoover. The Bissell didn't extract water well at all, even though I went over and over an area trying to get the water up. It was obvious by looking that it also didn't clean as well (probably as a result of leaving dirty water still in the carpets.) If it'd been my first carpet cleaner I might have thought it great since it did get dirt out, but I knew they didn't look as clean as in the past and mostly they were WET. The next day, before returning it I bought ANOTHER Hoover 914-900 thinking the first leaky one was an anomaly. The 2nd one leaked initially also, but once I used it for a minute, pressed and released the trigger a few times and the seals got wet, it stopped leaking. Thus I had two new cleaners to try side-by-side. Where I used the Bissell after the Hoover, there was no difference, the Bissell didn't get the carpet any cleaner. Where I used the Hoover on where I'd cleaned with the Bissell the night before -a BIG difference. The carpet was visibly cleaner; (it's a very light carpet so it's easy to see that) the dirty water collected confirms that it picked up dirt the Bissell left behind; and the carpet was drier. This was a return to what I expected based on my last 2 Hoovers -damp carpet, not WET carpet, and I think it's why the Hoover cleaned better. The Hoover isn't perfect -the tanks need to be bigger for fewer trips to the sink (if too heavy for some people, they wouldn't have to fill as full), and there is no good way to clean it! I did like the idea behind the Bissell of having clean water with which to either mix with the detergent and spray, or to rinse with, and it would be a plus if Hoover would find a way to do that. (Especially if the "rinse" button was on the handle and easily accessible.) But Bissell's technique of inserting a plastic bladder for clean water inside the dirty water tank means neither holds much water which makes for extremely frequent trips to the sink. Also, having to stop, bend over, and switch a dial on the base to "rinse" and the same to switch back to cleaning mode was highly inconvenient. Last, Bissell's on-board water heater didn't seem to make a difference. Leaving behind too much dirty water was its downfall, it didn't matter that the water went in "heated." I used the hottest tap water I could in the Hoover and it worked just fine. The "proheat" seems to me to be just another unneeded gizmo that can break. Overall, I guess it depends on what's most important to you. For me, clean carpets that dry in a couple of hours trumped ease of cleaning the machine.

Others have gone into very good detail about this machine so I won't go over that again. What I will add, however, is that there are a couple weird things about this carpet cleaner that I didn't expect.

The first is that if you have pets you will have to go back and pick up clumps of hair even if you've just ran the vacuum cleaner. This is a good/bad situation as it's good that it's getting up all the hair that the vacuum cleaner missed but it's also a pain in the back (literally) to have to bend over every minute or two to pick up clumps of hair or risk clogging up the carpet cleaner with hair. We've lived in this house for 2 1/2 years and have had 2 cats the whole time, 2 dogs for 2 of those years so we expected some pet hair. We've ran the vacuum cleaner twice a week on average ever sinced we moved in, however, so you may not have that problem if you don't have as many animals as we have.

The second quirk and one that will effect everyone is the fact that it seems to leak. We have a "green machine" (portable hand held Bissell) that we have the same problem with so it seems to be a problem with all Bissell's. After you turn off the carpet cleaner and wrap the cord up you'll be surprised to see a mess of dirty water under where the carpet cleaner was. Tacks such as running a minute or so (continually moving it) before shutting it off doesn't work either. We have to store the carpet cleaner in the garage as it will continue to leak out over the next few hours or so and leaves a puddle of water about 6 inches in diameter.

The final little quirk is that, even though it cleans well, be prepared for the carpet to be very wet when you're done. The carpet cleaners that we're all familiar with that we rented when we lived in an apartment (rug doctors) dry your carpet better I believe because they're heavier. Bissell had to walk the fine line of making it light enough for the petite among us to use it while still cleaning the carept without doing damage to it. Like I said above, it cleans pretty good but the carpet is very wet afterwards. This quirk isn't that bad as long as you plan ahead.

Overall I give it 4 stars because it does it's job but the quirks keep it from being a must have product.

Honest reviews on BISSELL ProHeat 2X Upright Deep Carpet Cleaner, 9200

Positive:

* Machine is easy to maneuver and is similar to a vacuum cleaner in that the machine can be operated

* 2 in 1 tank recovery tank with solution tank bladder

* Electronic circuit breaker reset (power off then on to reset)

* Dual brushes lift pile well and make carpet look nice after cleaning

* Simple float design

Negative:

* The machine does not pickup water well. Several passes are required after water is sprayed onto the floor.

* First operation resulted in no water spray due to loose connection of the tank to the base.

* Second operation resulted in no water pick up due to loose connection of the tank to the base. A better instruction manual would help.

* Float trips too easily especially if machine is moved from side to side.

* The accessory tool location is awkward I cut my knee on it

* The instruction manual requires the tips and brush to be removed after each use

* Debris (mainly long human hair and cat hair during this use) easily clogged the vac shoe and left wet spots on carpet.

* Also little "hairballs" occasionally were dislodged from the underside of the machine. The debris collected behind the brushes.

I have never owned a carpet cleaner like this before. I used an upright Hoover a couple years ago that a friend owned but that's my only experience with this type of machine.

My wife and I have a large area rug approx. 12x16 and it needed cleaning bad. It had many stains from over 4 years of use. Most of the stains I had tried to remove with good'ol elbow grease but no luck. We decided to have it professionally cleaned but when we realized how expensive it was going to be ($300!!) we decided to buy our own. We purchased the Bissell Proheat 9200T from Target for $200 (Sorry Amazon!).

The unit was easy to assemble and use. Of course it took some getting use to but overall very easy. It ran out of clean water twice while I was cleaning and each time I didn't realize it for a couple of strokes. I wish there was an easy way to know if it needed more water. Also, like the previous poster mentioned carpet gunk gets stuck under the machine behind the rollers and it needs to be wiped clean periodically while cleaning. You also have to dismantle the front roller assembly by removing 5 screws in order to properly clean the unit when finished. I wish this was easier but I don't see it as a major problem as I don't anticipate using this everyday.

Our carpet is now spotless! We are thrilled with the results. There were dark black stains on our light beige colored rug for years and they are all gone now. I was only expecting a minor improvement but this machine made the rug look new again!!

For only $200 we have a brand-new rug and a great machine that will hopefully last for years. I can't recommend Bissell enough

Ever notice an odd smell of socks, urine, booty, or mold when you first turn on your A/C? The odor lasts no more than 30 seconds but it greets you each and every time you turn on your A/C. Not only that, it's awfully embarrasing when you get into the car with a passenger. The odor is caused by mold and bacteria growing on and around your evaporator. Changing your car's filter will NOT make the smell go away. You must kill whatever is growing and that is what this product does. It works well and you only need to use it once or twice a year. The can comes with a two-foot long plastic tube (I don't know why they don't show it in the photo) that's used to apply the anti-bacterial foam directly to the stuff growing in your evap. Don't let the car dealer rip you off. This spray will help you solve the problem yourself, for cheap.

This is my second Travel Water Heater for car. Both units only lasted for about ten uses then died. On taking a closer look at my second unit after it died, it look as if it was wired for a 240/120 volt circuit and not a 12/24 volt circuit (internal wiring too thin). For the price and the fact it is CE certified I'm not impressed. I expected a better product with CE certification.

Positive:

+ The heater will probably work well for at least a month.

+ It oscillates well.

+ The auto-off tip alert does work, but is very sensitive. If it is bumped, the lights in the room will flicker due to the power fluctuation until it situates. This is as opposed to my previous heater (a Holmes) that just shut it self off until I turned it on again.

Negative:

As another reviewer mentioned, this heater has a "child proof cap" style control knob. After approx. two months of gentle handling (because it was obvious that the heater was made with terribly cheap parts) I could no longer turn the heater off because the threads on the cap had worn off. In the end I had to unplug it to turn it off and stop using it.

After two weeks the fan blade started to make squealing sounds at random times. By the time the control knob broke, it had become quite loud. I never shook, dropped, hit or ever moved the heater. It was only set to oscillate for about one minute when it first arrived. It was another sign that this heater is cheaply made.

Honest reviews on Honeywell HZ2300 Honeywell Heater

We have one tiny bathroom without a heater. My old Holmes, which worked so well, finally died. I bought this Honeywell to replace the Holmes, and discarded the packaging or it would have been returned.

First, the Settings knob is the push-and-turn type, and when you press on it and turn it, it just keeps going around and around, Second, even if you turn the heat setting (the second knob) all the way up, the heater turns off after about three second (I actually timed it). Then, if you're lucky, five or ten minutes later, you'll get another brief blast of heat. Third, for the fan function to work, the room has to be as warm as the heater setting, which doesn't make any sense at all. Fourth, the whole unit oscillates, sending blasts of heat around in an arc.

I've been buying space heaters for that small bathroom for the twenty years I've been in this house, and the six dollar Rite-Aid heater I bought in a pinch two years ago worked better than this thing.

This is a nice small heater. It does everything that Honeywell says it does.

The only trouble I had was pushing down the child protection button. It does take quite a bit of strength

We purchased the New Comfort ES1500 heater to help supplement our propane heater in a very cold/drafty house. This is our first winter in this big old farm house in NW Wisconsin and even though we haven't experienced our normal cold temps, this house can get very cold.

We put the heater in the kitchen because it was always much colder in that room. We set the heater at 68 degrees during the day and 63 degrees at night. On the days we average 25+ degrees during the day, the heater manages to, at times, reach the 68 degrees..although it usually averages about 65 degrees. When we had our cold spell (below zero) the heater struggled to keep the kitchen at 60 degrees, usually only managing 56-58 degrees. Granted, our kitchen isn't blocked off from the living room or bathroom, but there are heat ducts in those areas also.

The great upside to owning this heater is the propane savings. We were going through $500 a month in heat costs, but with the heater our propane consumption has decreased by at least 25%. It is cheaper to pay an increase in electric than shell out another $500.

So, with all that said, I would buy this product again. I don't believe it can heat 1000 feet, but it does help. If you live in a warmer climate, or have a better insulated house, it just might do everything it claims.

Safe, works great, keeps me warm on very hard cold nights an days.

Best for energy , even has a energy selection!

Safest ever for RV's , surface does not get hot, blower up higher for function of air flow!

Just do not cover up plug & wires and leave open area for air flow in rear.

Now you have a wonderful product, I just can't wait till you make it look like a fireplace! I wanted one but saw these spec's, always read Spec'! This solld me, Safety is my concern!

Received last year Decided half way through the year it wasn't going to work anymore Says "alarm 1" Will not work and cannot find any info or get any answers as to what the alarm is for or how to fix it. Seems to me if you are going have that type of warning there should be some sort of list of what the alarms are but nothing. So for a good price I got a heater that lasted half a winter Not impressed

It will heat a 14 by 20 foot room with no other heat source but just moderately and will run all the time. used for one season and it still works so that is a plus.

I have had this unit since Dec. 2012 and has been working great

And performs as promised. I have not had any programming issues with setting the digital thermostat and love the fact that it programs just like the house thermostat with the weekdays and weekend options along with the wake, leave, return, and sleep time frames. The tempature settings in our case had to be set lower than we would set the house thermostat because it was making the room too warm; the is only 300 sq feet but is a converted garage with no duct work. We bought a 2nd unit a few weeks later for added heat in the kids room. Both units since programming them have been a "set it and forget it". Another feature I like is there is a temporary override to the programmed settings, so when its extra cold weather outside you can adjust thd temperature without changing your programmed temperatue settings.
