My wife an I like to enjoy a glass of wine by the fire. Previously we lived in an area where we could have a real fire and just relax. We recently moved to a restricted area where we could not burn wood. We purchased this pit because it was the largest of the portable units (most camp areas around here have burn bans during summer droughts). We were pleasantly surprised at the inital quality of the unit (only time will tell on actual quality) The paint has a thick enduring feel and the weight seems substantial.

We have so far found that on a mid 60*F night we only turn the pit on less than half way. At full tilt it is more than a comfortable temperature.

Our only complaint is that the images are clearly photshopped. The flames that we get at full are about a foot tall. We do not get any of the two foot flames that are pictured. the flames are proportional to the size and more than adequate for us. I will post pictures when we fire it up this weekend.

I purchased one of these portable outdoor fire pits and love it. I use it on my patio in Pacific Northwest evenings and it's always the center of attention. My friends and family love it because we always end up outside longer than usual. Setup and teardown is quick and easy. The rocks that come with the unit cool down very quickly I can box it up 10 minutes after turning it off. It pumps out heat (way more than I expected), and 1/2 a standard size propane tank lasted for multiple hours at the highest flame setting. There is zero odor or smoke it's very clean burning. The hose length is more than ample to keep the propane tank a safe distance from the flame, and out of the way of chairs to surround the fire. I can without hesitation recommend this product.

We recieved this fire pit a few days ago and we love it! We have had fire restrictions since June 18 in our area for open campfires. A friend of ours got a similar product, but we decided on this one instead of one like theirs. We are so glad we did. There is very little odor (if any} from the propane burning.(and I could smell theirs) It is great not to have any smoke to run from! We have been burning it on the lowest setting and it is perfect for us. I'm sure when it gets colder we will want to turn it up some, but it still puts out good heat on low. If you are just a few feet away it really looks just like a wood campfire burning. We would recommend this fire pit to anyone wanting an alternative to the wood campfire.

Honest reviews on Heininger Outland 5995 58,000 BTU Portable Propane Outdoor Fire Pit

We've tried a few different wood fire bowls and friend's houses and always came away smelling like a chimney. We considered getting a chiminea as well, but those can be finicky and take up a lot of space. This propane fire bowl seemed an ideal solution and after breaking it out during a recent snow storm, we're pretty satisfied.

As another reviewer stated the bowl is actually black, and not the polished bronze that's pictured. They really need to fix the picture. While it didn't make a difference for me, I'm sure some people care more about their decor than I do. It's also smaller than a comparable wood fire bowl. The pictures lack context so this is hard to discern, but it may be a good bit smaller than you expect. Great for portability, but I wouldn't try to get more than 4-5 people around it.

The bowl assembled very quickly and within 10min or so I had it hooked-up to my extra propane tank and away we went. There doesn't seem to be a great deal of difference in terms of flame size between the High and Low settings (neither came close the picture), but either way it puts off a good amount of heat without all the nasty smoke and there is a discernable flame, which is nice.

So far we're happy with the purchase. We'll see if it stands the test of time. Would give it 5 stars, but the wrong bowl color and somewhat misleading flame in the picture and I'll call it a solid 4.

Received this a few days ago at a vacation home in Jackson Hole.

Set up was a breeze. It appears to be well made and the metal is reasonably thick. burner control is nice, reminds me of a Weber. A big feature that should be included (but is not) is an ignitor! Bending over with a lighter or match is a little awkward and did put my bearded mug a little too close to the initial flames in my opinion.

We have a bulk LP tank with a quick connect for our existing BBQ so I ordered an extension hose with quick connect end, removed the LP hose that came attached to this unit, attached the quick connect an voila! a nearly unlimited supply...though I suspect without some diligence our gas bill could be hefty.

Unit is sitting on a wooden deck which was a concern for me. The wood below the fire bowl is slightly warm to the touch after burning on high for about an hour. The appears to be about 3" of clearance which doesn't sound like much but seems to allow any radiated heat to dissipate.

Another complaint is the color. It appears to be brownish or perhaps rust online. The unit arrived black.

Sitting here below the Tetons as the sun sets this unit is keeping the chill at bay.

I have owned this heater for at least 4 years now and I love it! The heater adjusts so you can blow the air toward your feet, your head, wherever you wish. I have taken this one camping with me and used it in the tent to make fall camping more comfortable. The size is nice and compact so it doesn't take much space.

I purchased one of these small TPI 178 TMC heaters a few years back and I was honestly never much impressed with it. While it was quiet, it hardly had any air or heat output even when run on max fan and max heating. However, I found a perfect application for it, and that was my above-ground well house. Since it is a small 8 ft x 10 ft well-insulated outbuilding, I actually couldn't have a larger output heater in it during the winter months without it putting too much heat out for the small space. Later, I installed a thermostatically-controlled small baseboard heater in my well house and the TPI heater didn't see a lot of regular use after that (as I had a number of other, better heaters).

Then, when I was recently using it, the black plastic swivel mount housing fractured in half, which completely separated the heater unit from its base, which rendered the heater non-operational. I wrote to TPI to see if I could purchase a replacement plastic swivel mount, but as I surmised before hand, they essentially had no parts for the heater as it was imported with no parts support. After some back and forth, I am pleased to report that TPI stood behind the heater (which was LONG out of warranty), and they shipped me a completely new heater at no charge (even for the shipping). I have to say that I was very impressed with TPI for doing this in an era where customer service can be rather poor and companies' standing behind their products has become something of the exception rather than the rule.

As a bonus, the new TPI 178 TMC heater put out far more heat and fan power than the old one ever did. Based on this, I can in fact recommend this little heater and especially TPI as a company.

I had this heater for several months under my desk now, and I love it. It is usually working on keeping my toes warm, but once its setting "fan only" saved my iPhone that was dropped into water (iPhone recovered after a day of drying and works fine). I don't keep it running all the time, but it heats up in a matter of seconds, so a couple of minutes is enough to get warm. I don't think I would like it on the entire day because I can still hear the fan even though it is not that loud as far as fan forced heaters go.

Got this for supplemental heat in my (all too often) cool office.

I chose this particular unit because it has the option of running at either 1500W (like most) or 750W. Being able to run this at a lower power means I won't be utilizing most of the line's power capability & have less of a risk of blowing the circuit breaker.

It is quiet, save a few minor 'clicks' when it cycles on/off to maintain the set temp (digital setting to an exact number, much better than a nondescript dial going from 'low' to 'high' or some equally nonsense range of 1-10).

Timer function is nice, so it can be set to go off automatically, so no need to remember to turn it off. Accuracy on the timer is a bit sketchy, though. I set it for 9 hr after I get in, & it will go anywhere from the exact time to 15-20 min sooner. Not a major issue for me.

Love this unit! Our place is about 800sq-ft, put it in the living room and it cools it and the adjacent kitchen. For our our bed room we simply roll the thing in there, being smaller will cool down much quicker of course. Haven't tried the heater yet but the fan mode alone blows nice and cool. Quiter than expected, and vented properly no condesation build up. If not vented (when brought in bedroom) the holding tank holds a liter and a 1/2 and can be drained in the morning. Love it! Remote such a plus.

Honest reviews on LX-140 WITH 14,000 BTU AC AND 14,200 BTU HEATER

I purchased this item about 3 weeks before installing it. Silly me did not read the return process---must return item for refund with in 15 days of purchase !! Once it was installed, the weather was in the high 90's, it does not come close to cooling the room at all. I called the number in the book and they can only send a replacement out. I have to now find a box that it will fit in (becuase I did not save the box it was shipped in---please save the box !!!), and ship it back at my expense. The people in customer service are not very helpful and very lack a daisy to say the least. Go to your local Lowes or Home Depot to buy an item like this, I'm sure the return would have been so much easier and hassle free.

This is my fourth portable AC. I have a boat that I frequently sleep on therefore, I pull my ACs out when leaving for an overnight visit. (Decided to do this after I had $10,000 of varies items stolen from my house.) I had intended to buy a Royal Sovereign Portable Ac which is the best of the three that I have but they no longer make my unit and I was not impressed with newer models are prices. I'm glad I got this instead. It works great in a large room. I also wanted one that was black/silver but this is a very nice looking model (better than the picture shows). It takes up a little bit more room than my other units but it is worth the use of space considering how good it works. It was easy to put together and the hoses that go through the window have a slick design better than the rounded models. I wasn't sure if I needed a two hose or if one would do as my other units are two but after reading up on it, I decided to go again with the two hoses. I haven't tried the heat yet but had the AC for two months use it almost daily and it works great. Did the job during a heat wave that was in the 90s with "feels like temps over a 100". It is a little loud but not as bad as my other units. Good price also as I spent several hours shopping for this product.

I have to say that this product surprised me. I usually have problems with all things electronic, but this frother/heater was so easy to use that it almost makes the directions that come with it useless...ALMOST!

The outside as you can see is a lovely easy to clean, slick and shiny high gloss steel, the interior is nice slippery non-stick surface. The lid has a fitting inside to hold whichever of the whisks you aren't using at the moment. This is perfect so that you don't loose the tiny pieces. It has two different whisks one that makes heated milk with a small amount of foam and the other makes a stiffer froth and will do both heated and cold froth. This is perfect for both winter and summer beverages.

It has a nice length cord so you don't have to keep it snugged up to a plug. It takes about the same amount of time to froth your milk as it does to make a cup of Keurig coffee...maybe a bit longer. ( the frothing time is about 65 to 140 seconds depending on which whisk you choose) but not long enough for your coffee to get cold. With the lid in place any froth you haven't used stays fresh and fluffy, but of course not warm, for several hours in the fridge.

I tried this product with several different kinds of milk from skim mild to full fat milk, (of course full fat works the best) as well as frothing the non-dairy creamers such as International Delight. So you can imagine my glee when I found that it works perfectly with the flavored creamers. I am in coffee heaven and can not wait for the weather to get colder to begin experimenting.

Cleaning is a breeze, simply pull off the whisk you've used and rinse the jug with hot soapy water, rinse clear then dry with a non-abrasive paper towel or soft cloth. Do the same with the dirty whisk.

The directions that come with this are clear and concise. They have large enough print so those who have vision problems shouldn't have problem reading them. The pictures are quite large, descriptive and easy to follow.

If I have any complaints at all is that the fill lines inside the jug are a little difficult to see. However, once you know where they are it becomes easy to figure out just how much milk/creamer to use for your method

The directions booklet even has some recipes inside for using both kinds of whisks and for hot AND cold froth but remember to experiment.

Try to let the jug cool down about 2 minutes in between batches or rinse with cool water in between batches or the frother could stop working temporarily. I am so hooked and thrilled that I don't have to travel several miles a day to get a 'special' coffee fix now.*sample provided by manufacturer*

The Cuissential Milk Frother is just like having a Starbucks in your kitchen without the expense. I've had more fun with this machine whipping up everything from a simple cappuchino to a latte macchiato. Operation is almost intuitive, but not quite. After reading the directions I was good to go in about two minutes. This little gem is good for making a macrofoam, hot or cold that is perfect for all those recipes I always wanted to try, but not pay for in a pricey coffee shop or café. FYI, the macrofoam lasts for quite a while left in the milk container, an especially nice feature if you're not interested in the temperature.

It's perfect for frothed milk either hot or cold. There are indication marks on the inside of the milk container that take the guesswork out of measurement. The two levels are a maximum level for frothed milk and one for heated with a small amount of froth. This is what you see in the cup in the video. There are two disks, a whisk for frothing milk and one for heating and mixing. The spare is stored beneath the transparent lid. There are a lot of safety features built in to the machine. For example, if you pick up the milk container when the frothing is in progress it will stop.

When you press the button on the front you simply scroll up to get the setting you want. The beauty of this machine is that it can be used for either cold or hot beverages. I definitely like the versatility because if I want I can make everything from an iced latte in the summer to hot chocolate on a cold, wintry night. It's really as easy as one, two, three. Put your milk in, place your selection, and wait until it's done. The sleek, stainless look is gorgeous and will fit most kitchen decors and has a relatively small footprint.

Best Deals on Cuissential Deluxe Automatic Milk Frother and Heater, Cappuccino

The Cuissential Deluxe Milk Frother and Heater has a classic modern design that recalls Bauhaus holloware, rendered in polished stainless steel. In a minute or less, it produces a perfectly even microfoam, either hot or cold, for a beautiful cup of cappuccino or other coffee or cocoa beverage with milk.

The jug lifts easily off the base and has a heavy-duty non-stick interior with fill lines for frothed (115 cc) or heated-only milk (250 cc). The lid is transparent with a silicone gasket that fits tightly but removes easily. The power cord is also heavy-duty and about 27 in. long. The heating mechanism is UL-rated for safety.

There are two attachments, a whisk for foam and a stirrer for evenly heating milk without foam. There are two LED indicators, blue for stirring only and red for heating. Press the soft-touch power button for hot milk and hold it down for a second to stir without heating. There is a soft whirring and then the LED flashes when it's ready.

The milk protein provides the structure for the foam. Skim milk makes the finest foam but whole milk has a creamier taste and mouthfeel. I normally buy 2% low-fat milk and it strikes a good balance.

To get all the foam out and also preserve the non-stick finish, either swish a little coffee around the jug or else use a silicone mini-spatula or feeding spoon.

When making several batches of heated milk, clean the jug with a soapy sponge or dishrag between uses to avoid building up a film of cooked milk.

This automatic milk frother and heater from Cuissential is superior to manual or electric stick frothers because it heats the milk to the correct temperature, produces an excellent foam, and is so quick and easy and fun to use.

I have a 900+ sq foot basement with 8 ft ceilings. I've had this heater for about a week. I am absolutely amazed at how comfortable and warm the entire space is now. It's in the low thirties outside, and my entire basement with the new heater is in the low seventies, a good 10+ degrees higher than before. The unit is very quiet, clicks once in a while to regulate temps. So easy to use and set up. I'm just so happy that I actually WANT to go down to the basement now and hang out WITHOUT my scarf. The flame is very realistic my son and his friend thought this heater was a real wood stove. The box says pennies a day to operate, I hope that's true. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product it will improve your quality of life.

The only down side I had to buy a wine cooler so my wines won't go bad because of the higher temperatures. :)

This Stove packs a punch! It heats my 1200 sq. ft. Apartment great! Plus it looks very realistic! I have other family members who have eden pure infrared heaters, that work just as good, but don't look as good as this one. I love that all the controls are behind the door, so little one's cant mess with them. Very quality construction. The only thing I don't like, is the temperature control, it doesn't tell what temp it's set at, so I have to guess where to set it, but I can live with that one flaw, since it looks so good!

Got unit, put it in an 8X10 bedroom with door closed to heat for guests. Was on for an hour, using high button and thermostat turned up full throttle, absolutely NO change in temp. Has nice flames but didn't change room temp at all. Very disappointed. Got out small bathroom heater, the portable types. In 15 mins, the room was warmed. I have two other electric stoves, one purchased on amazon...an electrolog which isn't made anymore evidently, but it still works great. And also a plow and hearth brand small capacity that is charming. Thought an infrared would be a great new choice. Very disappointed as I am out shipping to get it here and probably to send it back. Awaiting response from vendor, but would highly recommend that you seek other brand. Other reviewer must have one that isn't defective, I certainly got a dud. Shipping back rate made no sense to return as price more than double that of original shipping paid to receive, vendor return address where return would be made they use different warehouses than their locale, and if it wasn't deemed deflective, then a restocking rate applies from vendor.

right now our husband and i are using this little baby to heat our entire house which is not a mansion but is by no means small. my husband is on the war path about the cost of oil and refuses to use our burner. i'm not saying that the bedrooms don't get chilly (the way our house is designed is most of it is on one floor and the bedrooms are partitioned off from the rest of the house by a series of doors), but the common areas in which we spend the most time are toasty warm. i tend to get hot so i leave the stove on the lowest setting most of the times and that's enough to warm the house. it's a good looking piece of "furniture" and doesn't detract from the room. it eats about a bag of pellets a day on the lower settings and is virtually no work. it stays lit without any tending, reignites easily once it has been turned off, and only requires a vaccumming out every day or so to collect the excess ash. if you buy one, which i recommend, you need to buy the ash vac with it because trust me you will be using it and you don't want hot ash going into your regular vac..
