We purchased this a year ago from Sam's Club. It is wall mounted in the basement, and worked great, until right after the warranty ended. Now it is dead. No response from the controls at all. Not sure what we are going to do. Waiting for a reply from the Soleus.

This is a common problem with electronic thermostats on heaters. We have another heater with an electronic thermostat (another brand), and it failed once, thankfully under warranty.

I'm returning this today. It's heating range is about 1-2 feet if you're lucky. I have a tiled master bedroom and this heater did poorly to heat one side of the room. Trying to heat the living room is not even close. My biggest complaint is that this heater does not project heat. I'm going to get a heater that blows out the air.

First unit dead after 6 months (lights come on no heat)

replacement huge dent in back panel on arrival (box perfect... they sent it that way!)

second replacement OK for a few months. Tried it as the weather got colder this month. Worked once, now won't heat up.

Customer service says the warranty starts (and ends) based on the original purchase date, so I'm out of luck.

We are so very pleased with our new procon heater. It was easy to install and it is very efficient, and safe. My husband is happy with all the safety features and I am warm. It is ideal at our seasonal cottage by the lake where we have cool temperatures in the 30's. Being so far north in the "Keweenaw", it soon will be time to close up the cottage and move out. Thank you so much!!!

Good4U 6 Tray Dehydrator with 40 Hour Digital Timer - Black Review

Hi Everyone,

Here is an update from my last post. I spoke to who I believe, is the owner of the good4u company and we had a good conversation. She has checked into the problems I was having and is taking action. A third party who is a raw food equipment supplier suggested to me that with the growing popularity of dehydrators these types of growing pains can happen. I tend to agree with him.

The construction of the good4u dehydrator is probably not as sturdy as the Excalibur but there are several features of this good4u dehydrator that I like better than the Excalibur and I hope that I can resolve this issue and find a solution.

One of the things I like about the good4u unit is that it does not need a door and you don't have to rearrange the food or move the trays for even dehydrating. The sides of this unit are solid so there is no hot air flow coming out of the sides as with some other units. It is also less expensive. I will keep you posted.

I've had this kettle for about 8 years and it works just fine. I use it on average 2 to 5 times a day. The whistle isn't quite as loud as it was in it's younger days, hence I've boiled it dry quite a few times, with no ill effects. The only drawbacks are the one quart capacity and dragging the cord around when I fill it. So, if you want an electric kettle for under $20, this is a good buy.

I bought this teakettle online after searching the stores for something similar. I drink tea several times a day, and my office is a ten minute walk from the cafeteria. This way, I drink tea whenever I want at a fraction of the cost. The water heats up very quickly, and the teakettle never seems too hot to hold. Everyone who sees it wants one of her own.

Highly recommended!

I actually own two of these kettles for several years now. One at home, and one to make a quick tea/coffee at work. They make a quick job of boiling water, have a very loud whistle and just excellent overal. One thing to notice though it will only hold three to four cups of water. Perfect for a small family, but not enough if you have more than 2 tea drinkers at home. I have not seen rust on either pot I own, so it's possible that the other reviewer had a bad unit.

Honest reviews on Presto 02703 Electric Tea Kettle

I got one of these for my 80-something mother a few years ago. She desperately wanted an electric kettle that reminded her of an old stovetop version yet was simple and safe, since her eyesight was failing. The Ptresto fit the bill and she loved it.

Unfortunately, the cleaning lady at mom's facility melted the cord somehow, so we got mom another. She likes it as much as before. We were impressed enough that we ditched our own more vertical model and got ourselves one of these.

Very handy for tea water, a cup of instant hot cider or cocoa on a cold evening, or some boullion. Or to just have some hot, hot water handy on the counter for recipe purposes.

We recommend it!

My mother in law turned us on to this kettle so quick and easy to use. Cord is short, and don't over-fill because it will bubble out the spout, but other than that, it works great, quickly and holds enough for several cups of coffee / tea. Have purchased more than one of these, and they seem to last quite a while. We use ours several times a day so it gets a good work out.

We purchased this heater from Home Depot. There are several sold under different names all in all the same unit.

We wanted to use this to preheat our family room and kitchen before the main heat kicked in when waking.

Follow the setup instructions to the letter using K-1 Kerosene there is barely a hint of Kerosene smell of any sort in the home.

We use it to pre-heat the areas above and just recently found the Klean Heat a orderless alternative to the K-1 Kerosene in four weeks of use I have not one complaint on the unit.

Home Depot carries the K-1 Kerosene at $36.00 for five gallons the Klean Heat is a bit expensive at $10.95 a gallon but last much longer than K-1 Kerosene and is completely orderless.

This unit is a winner in my book. Directions are easy to follow and definitely saves on our electricity bill. We are all electric it cost around $3.50 an hour for the electric heat strips in the fan coil on a call for heat and average around $4.50 for two days operation of the unit being used 2 hours in the morning and now 3-4 hours in the evening.

Wick maintenance is a cinch it is covered in the manual and searching on the model will take you to the distributor website it has photos and detailed instructions on wick changing.

Remember to use ONLY K-1 Kerosene in the heater for clean burns and Klean Heat for a complete orderless heat source.

Ventilate the home per the instructions while in use.

Always take the unit outside to light and extinguish due to the odor of unburned Kerosene being emitted from the unit on shutdown as well as initial 5 minute warm up when ignited.

I wanted to use my garage as a woodworking shop. Dimensions are 12'W x 19'L x 9.5' H. It is lightly insulated and the door is leaky. I live in Northern VT. It was 8 degrees F outside Saturday and 15 degrees F in the garage. I have some cast iron in the garage such as the table saw and the chop saw. There are also some very large cupboards. These things really hold the cold.

I purchased this unit at Home Depot and 5 gallons of the HD 1-K. I fired the heater up in the garage. The garage temp went up about 1 degree F, each minute, for the first fifteen minutes. After the first half hour, it was up to 40. After the first hour 50. After 90 minutes it was up to 55. After two hours it was at 60. I found myself coughing a bit at this point. I opened the window about an inch. The room held about 62 degrees as I was working in shirtsleeves with the window open. This was a 58 degree variance between indoors and outdoors. I believe it would have gone higher but I completed my work and shut it down. It used about an 1/4 tank. Which is about a 2 quarts of fuel. The HD fuel works out to about $7.50 a gallon. So, I guess I used about $3.75 for 3 hours of heat. At $1.25/hr, I think that is about as economical an option you can hope for.

I had lit the unit in the garage. In retrospect, I would light it outside and let it burn for five minutes or so now before bringing it back inside. Those fumes might have caused my cough. It operates a bit like a diesel engine. It has to warm up before it becomes efficient.

I should mention that prior to buying this, I bought a propane unit at Lowes that boasted all over the box of being designed for indoor use. A Sales Associate there said he was going to get one himself. He responded to my propane/kerosene inquiry by stating that his frugal contractor friend swore by propane.

This particular propane unit was pricey, but my concern was safety, convenience, clean air, and heating capability. I also bought an extension hose, and a gas grill tank and propane. I was a couple of c-notes into it. I brought it all home and started hooking it up. Well, the directions and warnings all started to get to me. "Indoors", in propane speak, seems in this instance to quite literally mean inside a tent. And the directions explicitly state to not bring the big propane tank indoors. And it said not to leave the pricey little tanks hooked up and stored within the unit when kept indoors. I said "the heck with this" and returned it all. Kerosene may (or may not) give off an odor, but at worst, it is just flammable. It isn't an explosion hazard.

In that regard, I didn't think the kerosene gave off much of an odor. However, my wife happened to come out into the garage and said, "oh, it smells a bit, huh?". After I opened the window, I think it was totally unnoticeable. Opening a window an inch is recommended in the instructions, btw.

I am very happy with the purchase and thrilled to be able to use the garage in the winter. I think propane with a blower is probably the only way for a contractor to go. But in an enclosed, windless space, the gentle heat of kerosene is quite nice and economical.

Hope this helps.

During the last snowstorm (am losing track of them these days) local power on this farm was out for almost 2 days. However, I was able to stay at least one night in this dark, cold house because of this great heater, which I put in the open doorway between 2 bedrooms. I ran it all night long, and into the next morning, and both bedrooms actually got 'too hot', until it finally ran out of fuel (Klean-Heat fuel). Had to vacate for a local hotel at that point. I'm not sure what Martha Stewart would say, but I even carefully made cocoa on this heater by sitting my mug on the top of the grill until the milk was scalding. Have oil heat as primary heat source, supplemented by electric space heaters, but this DuraHeat heater is my 'go to' heater to heat up any space where the other heat sources are failing to do their job. Needless to say, when there was no electricity, I was sincerely glad I had bought my DuraHeat. I can't tell you anything technical about it other than it is easy for a girl to figure out how to operate it. You won't be sorry you bought it.

I was not in a pinch when I bought this unit. It was right after Sandy, but I happened to have electricity, gas, etc. While the electric was out it dawned on me that should another storm (or incident) like Sandy occur again, I would seriously need an alternative heating source. I purchased this unit at Home Depot and have not been disappointed at all. Home Depot was out of K1 Kerosene, so I dropped by my local Walmart and they had the 5 Gallon jugs in stock. This unit was super easy to put together (less than 5 minutes) and I was up and running (testing it) in about an hour afterwards (the manual states to wait for a full hour after first fill to let the wick have adequate time to soak).

This unit heated my entire living area so efficiately that I now use it everyday to 'pre-heat' my house. I keep the central heating at 65 degrees and with lighting this heater up twice a day (morning and evening) the place stays at about 70-72 degrees. Cheap, fast and no smell. There was more of a smell when opening the 5 gallon jugs than during actual burn. Kicking myself for not saving money on gas and electricity (for the heater blower) sooner.

Great heater. Must be prepared to do work in using it from cleaning to putting in kerosene to--requires maintenance and careful watching. However, it puts out great heat. Just follow the instructions as it lends itself to open spaces or large rooms. Have to be careful when using this heater. Again, follow instructions.

I bought this expecting the extra vertical height to deliver the heat at a more direct level. Which it kind of does but that design is a compromise which doesn't offer a great benefit.

The design gives you the impression that the front fascia is mostly a heat output area but that's a lie. What they've done is taken a typical 1500W wide-type heating element and just stretched it vertically, so the actual area of output is through a 1 inch vertical gap between the center three fins. The lower quarter of the design is for the fan intake too so don't consider that part of the heating element.

What this means is the heat delivery is a very narrow area of effect and you have to be standing within about three or four feet to feel it on your skin. In fact the output even on high is not very hot at all. On the plus side it means the casing remains cool to the touch on all sides, in fact you could actually put your hand over the opening and leave it there. A hair dryer has a hotter output and at high speed this unit sounds about the same as a hair dryer so it needs to be at a distance. Low speed is more tolerable.

The remote is useful in that it has an LCD feedback display for temperature and fan setting but is very cheaply made with loose, cheap feeling buttons. The main unit fares better but it is not one of Lasko's better quality products.

If you want to slowly heat a small room then this would probably work, but for medium to large rooms the output will not provide instant heat and be in constant use trying to automatically maintain your set temperature.

Having purchased a Lasco fan which works very well and has a relatively small footprint, I definitely turned to Lasko when I was looking for a heater. The 5588 fit the bill. I have not experienced any problems, EXCEPT that when my printer (in the office where I was using the heater) began to print, the electricity went out. I had to get a new line for my office to prevent this from happening again. Now it works well! I imagine that my experience is similar to others who have purchased a heater (Lasko or another brand). It is well to be warned so you are prepared if this happens to you. Getting a new line installed cost me almost $300.00, but, in the end, it was worth it.

This is the best tower heater ive ever used. Love that the remote has a small lcd display. Heats up my bedroom quick. Love the automatic temp thing, turns off when it gets to the temp and then keeps checking it every once in a while to see if its still the same temp. Only dislike is the bright blue lights on the top, just a little too bright for sleeping.

This is a great little stove! It heats up quickly. You really have to be carefully and not touch the stove as the directions states because the metal on the outside get very hot. Be sure to keep it sitting on a smooth flat surface so that the air can circulate around it! Takes up little space on the counter. It also seems to be quite sturdy as I have already had the misfortune of dropping it, but it still heats right up. It surely deserves 5 stars!

Now I can do my hair all in my room.

Now I just heat up my comb in my room with my mirrors and other hair products and I can get it done in about two hours rather than 3!

Hi Natural Sisters! If you need one of these then you are doing an old fashioned press n curl! : ) or something like that. Anyhoo I remember back in the day when we would use the kitchen stove. I just bought a thermal flat iron (*note when we say "thermal" that means uses a stove and has marcel handles, some folks say" Marcel Irons", it's all where you are from). The reason why a thermal iron is often preferred is the iron quality. Quality iron is what produces a good finish. Electric irons use a different type of metal plate that does not work as well on coarser hair.

Well when I pulled mine out of the box I was pleased. I received mine fast because Amazon was the filler. It is true, these ovens are hot hot hot around the outside so be careful. I had to order one because nowadays it's just not proper to use the kitchen stove. So I bought for convenience and i luv it. the price is okay, wish they were cheaper and I wish we made them in the USA. Back in the day the cords were covered in a cloth because the cord can easily burn too if it touches the metal. I NEVER thought being in beauty school in the 80's that we would come back to this way of doing things. But it's good to be natural. Our hair really is beautiful just learn some styling tips on youtube, you can do it.

First experienced an electric fireplace in the bedroom at a B&B we stayed in last fall. We decided we really need one of those to take the chill off in our own home. We were able to purchase this Duraflame electric fireplace this spring at the end of the season for a fabulous deal (~ $80). We had the opportunity to use it ~ 6 weeks before the temps warmed up outside. Can run just the fireplace flames (without heat) or even put something decorative on the top of it with no fear of heat which comes out below. Size is ~ 23" high x 20" wide and 12"deep. The info on the DFS-S550BLK says it heats up to 400 square feet and uses 4600 BTU's. The noise level of the fan is not deafening but you can hear that it is on. We planned to put it in our bedroom but have used it our large living room with a vaulted ceiling (plus fan) which always seems chilly in the winter. There has been no noticeable increase in our electric bill since it has been keeping the room warm enough to keep the heat pump from kicking on. Easy enough to move from room to room but we wish we would have purchased a second one!

It'll get a good workout this coming fall through spring along with our wood burning stove & fireplace. These electric fireplaces are great to have and we wish we would have known about them years ago!

Added Nov 26, 2010: Now that the cold has kicked in again, we have run this every day now for over a month. Our electric bill reflected only ~ $25 increase. The propane truck also arrived to 'top off' our tank, since he didn't need to fill it so only a 40% fill, which was expensive enough ~ $650. If this fireplace as well as our real wood stove continues to offset these high fuel costs with less propane fuel deliveries, we'll continue to be quite happy.

Added Oct 23, 2012: Noticed that this is now a Cabelas branded item. When I purchased this, it was (and still is for us) a Duraflame product. Actually, we just purchase our second Duraflame electric fireplace (black). Paid about the same too; $75 we have a great local salvage type place to pick up products out of season or last year's models. Initially looked the same from the outside, but there is a slight change we noticed immediately opening the inside. There are 4 knobs (instead of 3) to adjust both the temperature and the brightness of the 'flame'. The 'log' looks a little more realistic too; identical to the Cabelas one. Sometimes this fireplace is also highlighted on the shopping channels on tv in a variety of colors. Now we have two working portable firplaces to offset our winter propane bill. Great product!

But within a few weeks of use it began making a noise as the motor inside rotates something to create the flame affect. A pretty noticable noise. I'll be returning it today. Had this not happened it would have received 5 starts from me.

I went through 2 before I realized the reason they didn't last long was that I was letting the liquid go past the point of damaging the heater. in other words don't walk off while it's immursed for it takes one time and one time only to damage it.

The name of the product is pretty self explanatory.

Its PORTABLE.

Its IMMERSIBLE.

And it HEATS.

So why would anyone not think this works well?

You can't heat soup, or lasagna, or hot chocolate or even coffee or tea if you follow the directions to the letter. You can heat WATER. PERIOD.

Anything else and you're likely going to be disappointed that the unit dies a premature death.

That immersible thing is tricky too, because the cord is short.

You can't plug it in before you immerse it.

You can't remove it while it is still plugged in.

You can't let it boil off the water leaving it above water level (meaning you CANNOT leave this unattended).

Follow these three simple rules, and I think you'll be more than pleased with yours.

Honest reviews on NORPRO 559 Immersion Heater for Warming Liquids

I bought this immersion heater to take with me into the hospital. I was having radioactive iodine treatment for thyroid cancer. I knew I'd be able-bodied, but bored, under orders to drink lots of fluids, and seeing very little of the nurses, as they do these treatments in special isolation rooms. It was such a good thing to be able to have a cup of hot herbal tea, or some cocoa, whenever I wanted, just as I would at home. The immersion heater worked perfectly. The key is to remember that you must never plug the heater in until the coil is immersed in your cup, and never remove the coil from your cup until you unplug it. The heater boils water so fast, you really do need to watch ita watched pot may never boil, but a forgotten immersion heater would boil your cup dry very quickly. I had to put my heater away in a box with the books I read in the hospital, as they scanned my stuff with a Geiger counter when my treatment was over, and it read "hot". Everything will be safe to use again after a month, and I will be glad to have the heater to use when we travel. My post-treatment scan gave me a clean bill of health, so I will be enjoying this heater for a long time to come!

2. Insert the heater into the water, THEN plug it in.

4. Unplug the heater first, THEN remove it from the water.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I got this product to use as a floor standing LED fireplace. There were some issues with the packing of this product. The sides of my unit were badly bent on one side making it difficult to assemble the unit. The glass was intact and the bag of rocks was present as well as the remote. However, the mounting screws for the base of the unit were not included and I had to get some from a hardware store. The unit was covered in a thick dust which was more like dirt/sand than dust. It was almost as if the unit had been used, abused and returned.

Distributing the rocks was difficult for me (and there weren't enough)...once you get the rocks in place, you have to put on the glass front. Moving the units can displace the rocks you've so carefully arranged.

When turned on, the fireplace does look nice. Based on its dimensions I put this fireplace in my regular fireplace (it fits perfectly). Some of the LED colors look cheesy but I do like the orange/red mix. Unfortunately the unit doesn't remember your color setting so you have to cycle through the colors each time you turn it on. The remote also has a very limited range and I find myself not even using it.

For heat, there are two 750 watt heaters you can turn on which are essentially forced air heaters. When it gets cold enough to use them I will report back on the heating capability of this fireplace.

Overall I am disappointed in the quality of the packing, the lack of a quality control inspection and the overall condition of the item. I'll also point out that my fireplace was placed in the (manufacturer) box upside down...another quality control issue. I have doubts about the longevity of this item but so far it seems to be holding up well despite being scratched, dented and dirty upon arrival.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is a review of the Frigidaire VWF-10305 Vienna 2-in-1 LED Fireplace. I am totally dismayed by this product. It came shipped to me in a timely manner, but that was the only enjoyable part of this product. When I opened the manufacturer box, the fireplace was held in place with a few bits of broken, crumbling styrofoam, the bag with the rocks was broken open and they were loosely scattered everywhere, the plastic protective sheet for the glass was only applied to half the surface and was wrinkled and scuffed, the metal "ears" that hold the glass to the base unit were bent out of shape, and the remote control was missing. I must have been sent a used/returned product, because I can't believe that a new unit would have come that shoddily packaged, damaged, and with missing parts.

It gets worse. I have tried contacting the customer service department as instructed on the included paperwork to try to obtain a replacement remote for the one that was missing, but all three attempts so far have been fruitless. I can only conclude that my unanswered requests for customer support means that they do not care to support their product, nor do they want my business in the future.

Due to the number of problems encountered with this product and lack of support from the company, I cannot in good faith recommend this product to anyone. I would suggest looking for a different brand than Fridigaire / R&D Group LLC.

Best Deals on Frigidaire VWF-10305 Vienna 2-in-1 Wall Hanging & Floor Standing

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Frigidaire "Vienna"

2 in 1 (Wall Mount & Floor Standing) Color Changing LED Fireplace

Item Number: VWF-1/0305

The Frigidaire "Vienna" Color Changing LED Fireplace measures 35.4" x 5.9" x 22" (90 cm x 15 cm x 56 cm). The fireplace stands an additional 1.75" (4.5 cm) off the floor when mounted on the floor stand. The fireplace weighs a hefty 46 pounds which makes moving it around a bit difficult to do on your own but will be sturdy when you set it down in your chosen spot. Brackets and screws for wall mounting are included.

The Vienna comes with manual and remote control capability with a low setting of "750W" and a high setting of "1500W" and heats a small or medium sized room fairly well. The fireplace can be used with or without heat. When operated manually, you can hold the power button down for 3 seconds to operate the automatic color change function. The flames change color every 10 seconds. There is a "Dimmer" button on the remote control that doesn't dim the simulated flame but changes the color(s) of the flame when pressed. It does not have the automatic color change function when using the remote control. There are 4 basic "flame"colors Amber, Red, Green and Blue and 6 combinations of 2. White stones that look like coals are also included and add to the effect.

The instructions are easy to read and assembly was easy too. The front panel is made if glass and only needs to be cleaned on occasion with a soft cloth. The rest of the unit can be cleaned with a soft duster so keeping your unit clean should be a breeze.

The pictures on the box are no way near to what the "flames" look like when in operation. It looks like tissue paper flames being blown by a fan. In different colors. I think the manufacturer is aware of this because the following is printed on the box: "The features displayed on the package of this product are to the best of the knowledge of its manufacturer and can slightly vary in actuality. Style and color may vary." This product was manufactured in China. I don't know if that makes a difference. You will be surprised by the "Stunning Adjustable Flame effect to set the perfect level of brightness" as stated on the box. The colors are strange. Perhaps that is because they are not all typical flame colors. They would be fun if you were having a party! The LED bulb is not replaceable so if it should stop working, it would just operate with it's heat functions.

The fireplace makes a low humming sound which one would expect, however, there is a strange cyclical clicking sound that we think is supposed to simulate the crackling of a fire.

If you have children in the house you may want to rethink this choice since the front panel is made of glass and even when mounted on a wall, it is recommended that it be mounted "2 feet from the bottom of the fireplace relative to the floor" for optimum viewing. The corners of the glass panel are square and not rounded which could pose another hazard.
