Since I already owned this same model Pelonis heater for 4 or 5 years, I was pleased to find it again and expected the same quality from the Pelonis brand. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The new heater's thermostat failed right after being turned on for the first time. Unlike my older heater, the new version now features a manual mode as if they do expect the thermostat to fail. With the manual mode, the heater can still be used by setting the speed, but it's definitely not as nice as the original one of this same model. It's also simply too much money to pay for something that does not work as described. Like most things these days, the quality is way less than products we used to be able to purchase with confidence.

I purchased this item after reading the claimed performance. I have a room in the lower level of my house that is generally colder than the rest of the house. Rather than run the furnace, I usually use a small space heater. Unfortunately, most space heaters don't work that well.

And neither does this. For all the promised performance, cheaper existing heaters I own work better. This thing is not quiet, and ran a long time before providing measurable increase in temperature (one of few benefits of this heater is the digital temperature gauge that let me know how well it was not working).

I'm sure this product does well at heating small rooms or the underside of a desk, but for the price you can buy two heaters that do just as well.

Adding insult to injury, between the restocking fee and shipping, I ended up paying a third of the cost of the unit just to find out it did not work.

I already own a Pelonis IV, and ordered the V to use in our RV. It's great. Quiet, has a nice thermostat with digital temp. display. Works as well as I expected, and I'm quite happy with it.

I own this product. It operates very quietly and really puts out the heat for a small space, used in a bathroom. Efficient.

I bought this heater as an additional unit, my original Pelonis' fan bearing had become noisy after many years, but was still putting out great heat FAST. Actually, the bearing noise goes away after the unit warms up, just rather noisy until then. I've had the unit apart, but can't find how to service the bearing or replace it, probably not replaceable. So I bought the new one in case it finally dies.

The new heater's fan doesn't ramp up as responsively as the original, and it seems the thermostat sensor, located on the cord, is much less sensitive than the older model, which is actually located inside the fan housing, making it far more sensitive to temp changes. I have to run the thermostat setting much higher, i.e. set it on 80-82 F to actually get a room temp of 75F. Maybe a redesign, placing the sensor inside, as it was previously, would cure this.

Those caveats aside, the heater puts out strong heat quickly, and will easily take care of an average-size living room, but not a huge room. Easily keeps a bedroom/bathroom toasty, once you get the 'stat calibrated to your preference

Reviews of ProCom Dual Fuel Vent-Free Fireplace with Corner Conversion Kit

The price of this vent-free fireplace is good and the mantle is very sturdy and looks great. What I don't like is the flame burns blue (I have natural gas) and looks more like a gas cooking stove than a cozy, warm fireplace. Creates no glow at all. It does warm the house quick and is very efficient.

The shipping was unpleasant, and although quick, the company would not approve a lift-gate to unload and expected me to assist the driver to unload the approx 150lb fireplace!

I'm considering a direct vent fireplace instead to have a more authentic looking flame.

Am thrilled with this gas log fireplace. I used it this past winter many times. Have to keep it on a low setting as it really cranks out heat. Assembly was fairly easy. I built a 12 high ceramic tile hearth and set the fireplace on it. Looks great and works very well!

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

Simple to assemble, simple to install and throws some serious heat, it looks great too. I did not purchase the blower and it heats my 400 sq foot room in minutes. Only small downside is the smell it puts off for the first few hours of operation. Just make sure you open the windows. The manual indicates the smell will burn off after a few hours and it does. I would recommend this product.

I ended up returning the bellows. At first look it was nice enough for the price. The problem I had was with the intake hole at the bottom. Too much of the exhaled air goes out through that hole as well when you pump it. A simple fix would be to tack a small piece of material inside the bellows to act as a check valve to prevent a lot of the air from escaping when it's being pumped.

Was a little smaller than I had envisioned it based upon the measurement, but nice quality and performs as expected. Because of it's modest size it hangs nicely with the rest of the fireplace tools without overwhelming our space.

This is a great fast heating ceramic heater. The design is nice and compact. Great for small spaces, but strong enough that you want to keep it at least 3 feet away from you. Find that most of the heat does come out and up. Doesn't project too far out. Settings are nice the temperature regulation is nice if your using it in addition to a home or apartment heating system. This way it will shut off when the room gets warm enough.

This is a great kettle. I've used plastic electric kettles for years but with concern about plastics in the food chain, I purchased this kettle. The design makes the kettle very stable on the counter. Wiping the kettle down with a microfiber cloth will keep the brushed stainless finish looking fine. Instructions say not to use vinegar to remove scale that builds up in the kettle. I do it anyway as I have done in all kettles I've owned. Boil 1 part vinegar and 5 parts water in the kettle, let it rest for awhile, pour it off and boil a pot of plain water to get rid of vinegar and scale residue and kettle will run quietly and efficiently. Enjoy!

I had one for 15 years by this manufacturer. That one was durable and worked

every time. It still works but is suffering from wear. The new one is better engineered: no port in the lid to emit burning hot vapor; the handle is positioned out of way of the steam.

update 4-19-2013 on and off switch failure under light use loss of quality from last one seeking alternative.

Best Deals on Russell Hobbs RH13552 Ellora 1-2/3-Liter Stainless-Steel Electric

Severe disappointment. This is the second of this model in less than 12 months on which the on/off switch has gone faulty. It's not true 'Russell Hobbs' like the old British days -that name was sold off. If you boil water only two or three times a day, this might serve. I use it an average of once every hour to 90 minutes, and the switch is not up to the job.

It's a relatively quiet, fast boiler, and is a handsome brushed steel finish. Be aware that the lid is a bit too snug, so you may need to adjust the tangs that hold the thing on (use needlenose pliers). It's attractive enough and stable on the base. To keep the inside clean, empty out the unit and stand it upside down with the lid off, overnight.

The fact that it's made in China is not itself a negative. It seems that most electric kettles, cordless or otherwise, do not live up to the reputation of their predecessors.

Review of Bodum Bistro 34-Ounce Electric Water Kettle

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I currently have a T-Fal variable speed tea kettle and so did some direct comparisons between the two. The Bodum lagged in all. It took the T-Fal 2 min 19 sec to boil .5 liters and 3 min 35 seconds to boil a liter. The Bodum took 3 min 17 sec and 5 min 47 sec respectively, a significant difference and one that would certainly be noticeable while waiting. The greater size of the T-Fal is preferable to me as well--the Bodum tops out at the one liter mark, but others may not need a large kettle.

The Bodum is definitely lighter and if someone is concerned about weight, the Bodum wouldn't be a problem at all. It has a relatively small footprint, though not really significantly smaller than my T-Fal.

In general then, with the speed, size, and variabilty--I'd aim people to the T-Fal. But by far the biggest concern I had with the Bodum was its strange propensity to stay on even after boiling. On two occasions the kettle either stayed on or came back on and got hot well after I'd boiled and poured out the water. During my testing I ended up unplugging it every time just to ensure this not happening again. I don't know if this was a singular flaw or something that is a feature of all of them, but it's certainly cause for concern

There's nothing to it really, an electric water heater so I don't have to light up the stove, wonder if there's a small clean pot, stand there until it boils or forget and let it boil over, etc.

You fill this up, push the ON button, after it boils it turns off. You lift the pot off the base and pour over teabag or into steeping pot, whatever.

I like it because it's green and modern looking. Functionality is so basic there's nothing to complain about.

Like the previous reviewer, I noticed there was no specific OFF button (just the ON button) But the auto shut off worked fine. If you're worried about auto shutoff not working soon enough, unplug after the water has boiled. I don't want bells and whistles, literally, on my tea-pot. One switch is great and the size is perfect for a family of four at breakfast. It's not like we're trying to boil water for spaghetti!

Looks like someone beat me to a 5 star review, but I'm sure we are both very pleased we purchased the product regardless of the negative review.

Best Deals on Bodum Bistro 34-Ounce Electric Water Kettle

This kettle looked so cute and modern that I ignored the reviewers who claimed the fact that there is no "off" button is extremely dangerous. how bad could that really be, right? I bought the red color and thought it looked so perfect in my kitchen. HOWEVER, when my husband woke up to find the kettle STILL BOILING from the night before (though the water had long since evaporated)he quickly plugged it out of the wall, and it is now on its way back to amazon. not only is this extremely dangerous, but it's also extremely costly! and explains the exorbitant electricity bill we recently received. who knows how many times the kettle stayed on boil for WAY over a minute.

I agree with the reviewer who said this item should be recalledit's completely unsafe.

Honest reviews on Bodum Bistro 34-Ounce Electric Water Kettle

After reading all the negative reviews, I called Bodum's customer service line before ordering to ask about the absence of an "off" button. The rep assured me that all you have to do is remove the kettle from the base and the heater clicks off. That made sense to me so I ordered.

As soon as I unpacked it, I plugged it in, pressed the "on" button, and the light went on. I immediately removed the kettle from the base and the light went off, so I assumed it was no longer heating. Just in case, I unplugged it,then plugged it back i, thinking it was still off since the light was off.

Half an hour later I came back and happened to touch the outside of the kettle and it was hot. The pot was STILL on in spite of the fact that I had lifted it from its base, unplugged it, and replugged it in with no "on" light on. There was no water in the kettle either; so much for the safety feature that it shuts off automatically as soon as it's empty.

In spite of what the customer service rep told me, the 72-page manual (72 pages to boil water? Granted it's in 11 languages, but slight overkill) clearly states, "If the boiling process is ended by removing the main plug from the electrical outlet, the kettle will immediately switch itself back on when the main plug is reinserted." What kind of a design or safety function is that?

The one and only plus of this product is the beautiful style with its nice lines and bright colors. Sadly it's the only reasonably priced modern kettle I could find. That's not enough to make up for the extreme safety hazard, of course. Needless to say, I'm returning this item immediately. It should be recalled.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Perhaps if Bodum had approached this kettle with the same care they seem to have put into their French Press coffee pots, I could write a better review, sadly this is not the case.

So it's a kettle, when I first came to the USA at the end of the last century, I would have been delighted with this thing, Boiling kettles seemed non existent then.

But with the march of time, and the popularity of tea specifically (like Europe) kettles are now available in an abundance of sizes, prices and features.

Biggest problem with this is kettle is the On switch.

You notice I did not say on/off switch, because it only has an auto shut off feature, which is highly dependent on the internal sensor recognizing a boil and turning the unit off. You can not turn it off manually unless you physically unplug it.

If you need a kettle for instant coffee, or soup for example, you don't want the water to boil completely, I mean how hard would an off switch have been to put in?

It's a real shame, it's a nice clean modern design, very lightweight, and looks classy.

Slower to boil then most kettles I've used, that I could care less about, but I suspect most people will not be able to get over the on/off switch thing.

Perhaps instead of worrying about being green, and boasting about "BPA free" they should have looked at functionality first.

I would recommend Aroma AWK-115S Hot H20 X-Press 1-1/2-Liter Cordless Water Kettle.

Not only cheaper, but larger capacity, quicker boiling, on/off capability, and automatic shut off when lifted from the base.

Overall I expected more from Bodum, especially as it is not exactly cheap either.

It's quiet and puts out alot of heat. I like that you can wire it either 120 or 240, it's a nice option. The only reason I deducted 1 star is the timer. The timer is quite loud and cannot be reset.

Best Deals on Cadet Manufacturing 65101 120/240-Volt White Com Pak Electric Bath

This heater was installed in our new construction home as the primary heater for the master bathroom. The heater does put out heat, but I am unimpressed with the speed of the fan and how slowly the room heats up. Previously we had used a plug-in ceramic style heater that seemed to heat the room significantly faster. I believe that they are the same watt output, it may just be that the fan in this Cadet is low enough as to not evenly distribute the heated air. If you turn it on far enough in advance of needing it, things will work fine.

Last complaint is that there should be a way to turn off the timer clicking. While not exactly loud or distracting, a silent operation would be better.

Honest reviews on Cadet Manufacturing 65101 120/240-Volt White Com Pak Electric Bath

The only reason I purchased this unit was because it has a timer on it. I thought it would turn off the heat when the timer shuts off so that it wouldn't run continuously. It doesn't work that way. There is NO way to shut this off. The timer can temporarily override the thermostat control but it will NOT shut off the unit. So if you're looking for a timed heater, just buy a cheaper one and wire it through an external timer.
