Purchased this heater a few weeks ago. Easy to install, simple hose extention and brass nipple along with a low pressure regulator. Took more time finding the parts at the store than actually hooking it all up.

Make sure you wrap all threads with pipe tape prior to tightening, and test the connections for leaks (dishsoap and water mixture...leak will blow bubble). After all properly tightened, fire it up!

Thoughts on the heater: puts out an enormous amount of heat, especially for price. Does not come with feet, so it needs to be wall mounted, feet purchased, or some kind of stand fabricated so it is off the floor surface. I used 2 cinder blocks. Pretty stable, but I plan on getting feet of some kind for tip prevention.

Draw back: radiant head pretty much goes straight up, so if you are like me and work in a non insulated garage with open rafters, most of your heat will be leaving the work shop. However, you can get the attachable fan, or just use a tall oscillating fan on low to evenly spread the warmth.

**side note** everywhere I could read, this unit is said to be used with no less than a 100lb propane tank. While this might be true if you are using this heater in place of a regular home furnace, or you are keeping your garage regulated at a certain temperature; I am currently running off of a 20lb bbq grill tank with no issue. I leave it on for 1-2 hours and have not yet had any freeze up issues from over drawing the tank.

Bought this heater in 2011, for our detached garage(approx 20' X 25')which my husband uses as his "club house". He's as comfortable out there, as he is in our house with central heat. Quality product, prompt delivery, and great vendor.

I bought this as backup heat for the winter and had it installed in my fireplace this is a really good heater. Looks nice in my den.The ad says it is for a garage but I had it placed in my den fireplace and it looks really nice.You cannot leave the pilot on as it will heat your house up.My house is 1550 sq.ft. so I believe it will heat the whole house in the event we have a power failure as I only got it for backup anyway. Great looking heater will most definetly buy this heater again.Have already recommend it to family members.

Purchased in mid-October 2012 to replace wood stove and 30+years old forced-air furnace (although instructions caution the unit is not to be used as primary heat source), installed mid-November. Ordered white/no blower, got black. Roughly $250 for the stove, $200 for independent/retired/laid-off contractor installation: Two of three natural gas appliance installers said they "don't touch them" (meaning small gas heaters generally) for vague reasons; natural gas supplier's sub-contractor half again as expensive. Hung the unit on the living room wall myself (single/divorced female, 62); hanging took maybe an hour, gas hookup involved 4 hours (mostly in/out of the basement to cut/thread heavy-iron piping on threader set up in the driveway).

Home is a roughly 1300 square-feet (one large bedroom, one very small bedroom converted to walk-in closet/storage upstairs), 200-year-old fieldstone farmhouse--some new windows and attic protection but, for all intents, uninsulated. Half the downstairs (4 rooms/~800 square feet) heated in Michigan winter. Purchased unit precisely *as* primary heat source.

Unit's been up/running for a little over two weeks with outside temperatures/weather ranging from low 50's to mid-teens/20's with wind/rain/snow. Thermostat dial offers settings 1-6; set it on mid-2 for more-than-adequate heat through living room/bedroom/kitchen/bath with aide of ceiling fan in living room. No doubt whatever that it will handle a Real Michigan Winter.

Unit is attractive (actually prefer the black), unobtrusive, virtually silent. Slight odor of gas as thermostat/flame kicks on/off. No hard cool-down/heat-up of rooms like the old forced-air "blast" furnace; heat is as radiant/consistent as a wood stove without the work (which I loved when I could do it) and mess of wood. With the gas line piping in place, replacement, if ever necessary, would amount to the cost of a new unit.

Unit has not been in operation long enough to require cleaning. Waiting for first gas bill.

So far, I have no criticism of this unit whatever. It is perfectly lovely.

UPDATE 01/01/2013

First natural gas bill covered roughly 3 weeks' use, was easily half what the old furnace would have used/cost. Wall behind and 4-6" immediately above the mounted heater stays surprisingly cool, wall above that gets very warm but not too hot to touch/blister paint/be dangerous. Am considering purchase of another while price is reasonable.

I. love. this. heater.

UPDATE 03/22/2013

BACKGROUND FROM 10/2012: Home is a roughly 1300 square-feet (one large bedroom, one very small bedroom converted to walk-in closet/storage upstairs), 200-year-old fieldstone farmhouse--some new windows and attic protection but, for all intents, uninsulated. Half the downstairs (4 rooms/~800 square feet) heated in Michigan winter. Purchased unit precisely *as* primary heat source.

TODAY, 3/22/2013: Nearly through first Michigan winter with this heater as only heat source. Thermostat dial offers settings from 1 to 6; have never set above high-2/the line between 2 and 3. Have to set at lowest setting when outside temperatures reach 30-degrees. Operation is dependable, takes 1/2-hour or so to heat house from dead-cold, flame/heat is even and consistent. Haven't had to clean jets; will do that at the end of the season. The only nuisance has been a slight pale grey dusty residue/deposit noticeable on dark woodwork--byproduct of ventless natural gas combustion; it's probably on walls/drapes too but they're white/beige, cleaned every spring anyway. No noticeable condensation whatever. Haven't purchased second unit yet--may not need to except as backup/replacement *in case* anything goes wrong next year. Again/still: I. love. this. heater!

I bought this ProCom black garage heater online from Northern Tool in October, 2011. I knew how to hook up gas appliances, so it wasn't difficult to install this. We installed it on our living room hearth after taking the gas logs out of the fireplace. Bought the BrassCraft hook-up kit from Home Depot. Also got the "feet" from Northern Tool (they were white, so I painted them black). Since this heater's on the hearth, we leave the fireplace vent slightly open for the little bit of needed ventilation required by this heater. The heater cycles on and off flawless, smoothly and quietly. With the heater set between 2 and 3, it keeps about 800 square feet at 67 degrees when it's in the 30s outside. Very comfortable heat. We don't run it when we're sleeping or when we're not at the house. Very pleased with this heater. Will easily save us $40 per month.

I have purchased two of these heaters and encountered the same problem with both of them.

Granted, they are a low priced heater. I paid $19.95 (on sale) for each of mine.

Both functioned for a few months, being used only occasionally for limited amounts of time to heat my basement workshop.

The amount of heat produced; even at the maximum setting was very disappointing; for both units.

Worse yet; both unit developed the same problem.

They would temporarily shut down and then resume operating a few minutes later. Both the fan and heating unit would shut off, and then resume operating temporarily.

It was like a thermal overload was producing a temporary shutdown.

the end result was that very little "heat" was produced.

The old adage about "getting what you paid for" certainly applies to this heater!

Politely stated; it is a piece of junk!

Honest reviews on Optimus H-3013 Portable Utility Heater with Thermostat

Dont buy this as a heater. Maybe buy this as a fan.

This unit has a few settings: Fan, 500w, 1000w, 1500w.

You have to set it to 1500w to get any sort of heat, and that is just too high of a power draw for too little heat. And the thing sounds like a lawnmowers. The fan is hardly balanced.

Only buy this heater for its cold-war era nostalgia. For heat, you're better off with a tiny ceramic heater box.

This fireplace is really pretty. I was worried about the plug showing under it but when mounted the front facing covers it if your electrical plug is right there. I would not recommend installing it flush as you wouldn't be able to use the controls on the side and could create a fire hazard. It does stick out 6 inches from the wall but isn't an eyesore in my opinion. I love this one versus the all black ones that look like a tv when turned off.

I bought this fireplace for my bedroom. the outside looks nice but the look of the fire "burning" is very unrealistic, boring, and provides poor ambience. i plugged it in and it immediately started making a loud noise as if two metal object were rubbing up against each other. This noise occured approx every 3 second. we also felt that this fireplace stuck out of the wall too far. long story short, we're returning it.

I just installed this 2 days ago in my bedroom, since its chllier than the rest of the house. I bought in combination with the style and the use of the supplemental heat. This is the equilvalent of heating your room with an easy bake oven. It only gives off enough heat if your standing DIRECTLY in front of it. Even a hair dryer would warm the room better. Also the remote can only be used if standing also DIRECTLY in front of it. The ambience is nice, and it does operate quiet enough. But really I can get a electric fireplace for 100 bucks that heats more effienctly. NOT WORTH IT AT ALL

I bought this fireplace back in April and had it installed. This thing puts out some serious heat! It will really warm up any room you put it in fast. The quality is top notch. There's a panel on the back that contains the valve for propane or natural gas. It seems to be set up for propane because mine was hooked up to natural gas and it wouldn't work until I found that valve under the panel on the back of the fireplace and set it to natural gas. You have to take the front cover off and install the logs but that's easy. I went ahead and bought the optional blower and installed it in the fireplace and that may be overkill because it puts out so much heat. I always wanted a fireplace in my front room and now I have one!

Once you get it together it looks and works great. The instructions are horrible and we had to cut the metal brackets that hold the fire place to the hearth. They were to big and the hearth would not sit flush around the insert otherwise. Also you need to build the hearth around the fireplace insert. There is absolutely no way to insert it and put the brackets on it after the hearth is built. So before you put the top part of the hearth on, install the fireplace part and then finsh by adding the top piece.

I'm so excited to come home to my Media electric fireplace which brings a cozy, warm and relaxed feeling to my bedroom. The dark brown espresso color adds a nice touch to my bedroom furniture which is also dark brown. After you assemble all the parts together that took almost 45 minutes, you will definitely see your moneys worth. It took almost two weeks for it to be delivered in two parts. The mantel and then the fireplace w/remote control. I panicked when I only received the mantel and didn't see the fireplace which was delivered later that day. It took the manufacturers to tell me that there are two deliveries. If there are any questions or concerns, please call the manufacturers directly. Trust me...you wont be sorry.

I love this fireplace but there are 2 manuals (one for the wooden parts and one for the fireplace itself). Given that they are separated we started with the one related to the wooden parts and we missed one step of the second manual, hence we had to disassemble or just keep going. We just kept going (we skip the step that prevents the fireplace itself from being pulled, so we hope nobody want to pull it :).

Other than that I do not have major complains but feel very warm in winter.

We just had a newborn and in need a water heater so we can have access to boiled water 24/7. Those 1.5 Liter water kettles can not keep up with the workload, 4 Liter is the perfect capacity. We can not use our Zojirushi because of the chemical coatings on the interior. We do not want to take any risk, the interior has to be stainless steel, absolutely no plastic.

We are glad we purchased this water heater. The interior pot is made of stainless steel. There is a night light under the sprout turns on when the water dispense is unlocked. The light illuminates the area right under the sprout, it is so convenient for us to prepare formula in the night without turning on all the lights. The night light also tells you approximately where the water will be dispensed at.

The other feature I really like is the 3D dispense button. The dispense button is big with chrome finish. My old zojirushi dispense button is one layer of PVC plastic that close to wearing out after a few years. The 3D dispense button on this secura water heater is easy to access and hard to miss.

The water dispense starts slow and after a few seconds the flow volume increases, so the water does not splash out. Another very nice feature that we really love.

My previous hot water pot suddenly gave up the ghost; its pump simply died. That was annoying, it would heat up just fine, but no way to dispense the water save ladling it out with a soup ladle. We did get about five years of constant use but I was not going to buy the same brand. After a lot of research, I could find complaints on any brand but this one seemed to have a lot of features and no bad reviews (so far.) I got the stainless and white model; it also has a black version.

First, this has a lot more features than my previous model the Sunpentown 3 Litre Hot Pot. This model has a choice of temperatures (from 208 to 194 to 175F.) There is a dispensing lock. When unlocked, an orange light is lit and not only is the light indicating you can dispense water, but it lights up underneath as well. I noticed when I was filling my teapot, it made it easier to see the water level in the pot.

There is a gauge to show water level and a beep tells you that water has reached temperature. The dispensing button itself is a hefty wide lever on the top, not a button under a membrane. Already, I'm liking this model a whole lot more than my previous one, and the price is about the same. The inside is stainless steel and the capacity is 4 liters or about a gallon. So it does take longer to heat up than the 3 liter model I had before.

There are two speeds for dispensing, which you can choose underneath. The unit will automatically shut off if there is insufficient water inside. And there is a descaling cycle. The outside is warm, insulated from the inside. It is not cold, but is pleasantly warm and you can touch it while the pot is on.

That's a lot of features and so far, I'm very pleased. It is superior to my old one and it's nice to have a supply of hot water for tea all evening and weekend long.

This is an amazing water boiler, my old boiler is still working but the Teflon coating on the inner pot starts to come off. May be I did not clean the pot as often as should. I got this boiler with stainless steel, hopefully I do not have to worry about the issues with coatings. So far it has been great, I like the thermostat settings. It boils water to 212 degree and keeps boiling for a few minutes to kills all the germs and softens water. And you can choose to keep warm at 208, 194, 175 degree, and you can set it to auto cool which does not use electric to keep warm. If you do not care about the water temperature like us, choose auto cool. It saves energy and water still keeps warm all day.

Honest reviews on Secura 4-Quart Electric Water Boiler and Warmer AirPot, 18/10

This is my second air pot purchase. My first air pot was an inexpensive one with no temperature control. I figured "Why do I need temperature control? It's going to boil water then keep it hot so I can have tea without waiting for a kettle to boil." I was so very, very wrong.

You see, I live in Denver, the "Mile High" city. I realize many things I purchase; cake mixes mostly, have directions for high altitude cooking that I usually ignore. They turn out fine anyway. But an air pot is different than a cake. It does only one thing. It boils water then keeps it warm. Here water boils at about 202*, 10* less than sea level.

Most air pots come from Japan which is most definitely sea level.

The first air pot NEVER stopped boiling. It was desperately attempting to reach 212*F and all it was succeeding at was adding moisture to our air, which admittedly we need but not what I bought it for. I returned it with disappointment and spent the time awaiting my refund looking at other air pots.

I believed, during that time, I was going to be stuck ordering the Zojirushi at twice the price because it was the same one as my mother in law's, the person who showed me how wonderful air pots are. Then I came across this. It was much less expensive so, with Amazon's return policy having worked out well once, I thought I would give it a try. It arrived, I filled it up, set it to 194* though the box proclaimed it boiled water to 212*, and then waited for all the water to boil away once again. The water came to a boil and I walked away. It was going to take a long time to boil away 4L of water, but to my surprise it beeped a short time later! My water was boiled and not being held at 194*. I emptied it, filled it again and got the same result, plus it had gone through the recommended couple of boils to clean it out.

It has been only five days but the family is in love. There are three ways to dispense; a button on top, a manual pump, and the convenient little cup button underneath. And the light is a nice touch and a big, orange light lets you know when it is unlock for dispensing and it doesn't stay unlocked for too long; excellent when there are little button pushers running around the house. It also seems to be keeping the water at a consistent temperature, but I will have to simply trust it on that as my candy thermometer claims it being kept at 238*F. I think I can safely assume that that needs replaced (and would explain why my last batch of fudge turned out so horribly).

Condensed version of this; great air pot, highly recommended!

The overall construction and operation of the product is very good. Water can be pumped out using either the electric pump or the manual pump at the top.

The interior is all stainless steel which is the reason I bought this one. However, after a week of boiling and cleaning, I could still taste plastic in the water. So I dissembler it to investigate. It turned out the problem is with the lid. The hot steam gets into the lid and then condenses inside the lid. The inside of the lid is made of plastic parts; only the part you can see is made of stainless steel. The steam condenses on the plastic and then back-flows into the pot and therefore contaminating the water.

We've really loved our Coleman plug-in cooler which we've had for seven years, but recently the fan motor stopped working. The motor that is advertised as fitting the majority of the Coleman thermoelectric coolers (like the 5615/ 5232/ 5640/ 5641/ 5642/ 5644 models) is no longer available anywhere so I thought I'd give this motor a try since it looks so much like the one in our cooler. Amazingly it works on our 5640 cooler so I'm guessing it will work on any of the models listed as fitting the old universal motor. It is a little louder than the old motor, but it works great and we didn't have to shell out $100+ dollars for a new cooler. Success!

This Roadpro Replacement Fan Motor for Deluxe Snackmaster RPSF-5234 Cooler/Warmer Roadpro RPSMM, was bought to replace the burnt-out motor in another type of 12 volt thermoelectric cooler an Igloo KoolMate 36. The unit's shaft was slightly shorter than the original Igloo motor's shaft but the two fan blades from the KoolMate fit easily on the RoadPro motor, and once the Igloo cooler was reassembled it worked perfectly once again. The RoadPro motor is quieter and more powerful than the original unit so the repaired cooler now actually cools faster yet seems to draw to draw less 12 volt current than it did before the fix. This is an excellent choice to return an older Igloo KoolMate 36 back to service after its original fan motor stops working.

All over the web people are saying this motor will replace the motors on the Igloo Koolmate 36 and similar units.

This is a bunch of bull! The shafts are too short and the diameter is too small. There is no way to fasten the motor the the cooler. I spent hours trying to fabricate adapters to use the original fans, but no way could I find a way to adapter the different shaft sizes and get the fans to balance. It's better to trash the old units and buy a new cooler.

Honest reviews on Roadpro Replacement Fan Motor for Deluxe Snackmaster RPSF-5234

Bought as a replacement for my Coleman cooler. It is a little noisier but it is a lot faster, so my cooler is cooler than it was before. I just hope, because it is so much faster that it still lasts as long as the old Coleman motor. It has a slightly thinner shaft and longer. I had to trim the longer end to fit the Coleman. Fill the fan shaft holes with epoxy and redrill for the thinner shaft. $26 and a little work beats $100 for a new cooler.

Addendum : It lasted from Nov. 5 to Aug. 10, a little over 9 months. I am a driver and this cooler is on 24 hrs. a day 5 days a week. The original Coleman motors lasted about 2 yrs. I just bought 2 more, hopefully by the time these wear out they'll have a better cooler.

I have owned this hammock for approximately 1 month and am extremely pleased with it. Some of the reasons why include:

1. Attractive. The photograph of the hammock does not do it justice. The red and greens are deep and rich, the oak spreaders shine. The stripes add a nice color dimension which is lacking in a rope hammock. It simply looks lovely swinging in the breeze under a shady tree in my backyard.

2. Comfortable. After reclining in a quilted hammock, I will not go back to a rope hammock no ropes cutting into you! Note that the quilting is light you get a bit of cushion, but it is NOT like lying on a bed. The potential con is that the fabric will not "breathe" like a rope hammock. It may be that the rope hammock (with the loose weave) is cooler on a hot day, but I have not had any problems with feeling overheated.

3. Well made. The hammock comes complete with everything you need to hang it immediately. This includes the tree hooks, chains (many hammocks don't include the chains) and a very clever hook/hanging system. Basically, the chain is welded to the center of a dual ended hook one side hooks into your eye-bolt or hammock stand. The other end is where you can drape the chain links in order to shorten the chain. It's a simple idea once it you see it, but it works very well. Your hammock will hang at the correct height. The chains appear to be rust-resistant, and the oak spreaders are treated with marine polish to help make them weather resistant.

4. Weather resistant. My kids left the hammock out and of course the tree dropped leaves on it and it rained. It dried quickly and I simply brushed off the leaves. Voila! Good as new. I was concerned that the rich colors would run/fade if it got wet, but the dye appears weather resistant.

This hammock is a winner.

Update: I have now had this hammock for over a year and it still looks like new! Granted, I stored it in my garage for winter, but it has been in use outside most of the year. Hurray for DuraCord Fabric! Truly, an excellent product!

After quite a few years of owning a cotton, open mesh, quality hammock, the squirrels decided to chew on the many knows in the ends of the hammock. I repaired it as best as possible but you can't win with a squirrel as your adversary.

Hence it was time to get a new hammock (not squirrel) and I purchased this beautiful quilted model. It is excellent.

I have had this heater for about two years. I am a 62 year old grandmother and take good care of my equipment, so this heater has been well cared for. The cord wrapped around the pedestal this morning, creating a tiny bit of tension at the point where to cord enters the back of the fan. There was a loud pop and then flames shooting out of the back of the fan. Thank goodness I was standing right there or my house could have burned down. I will be reporting this to the company than makes them, but I am getting rid of the other identical heater I have. This is a fire hazard.

I bought my Optimus H-4501 heater last month and am super impressed with it. First of all, for anyone who uses a heater at night in their room, having a low-laying floor model makes no sense. It will just point heat at the side of your bed. Having the elevated "heater on stick" model makes all the sense in the world. Now the heat is aiming at you. I have another pedestal heater of a different brand which made its way to my garage, because although it has a shut-off timer, it has no thermostat, so it's either on low, on high, or off. The Optimus has a thermostat, and a good one, not just a dial, but rather a digital display where you pick the desired temperature digitally and the heater turns off when that temperature is reached and back on when the room gets cold again. I've never seen a pedestal heater that has both a timed shut-off feature and a thermostat until I found this one. Also, it's very QUIET in its operation, even while in oscilating mode. And I like the backlit digital display which is at eye-level from a bed. It's got a nice remote control, but I hardly ever use it sense the screen and controls are at very easy to reach (as opposed to my old heater which had them located on the base of the unit). Last, but not least, like all dish heaters I've tried before, this heater projects substantial heat at you very quickly. I've never had to use the high setting yet. I would recommend this heater to everyone. I really feel it's the best space heater ever!!!

I have only had this product for one day as of 01/09/2013. I will comment later if need be.

So far, I don't see any problem with the item itself, HOWEVER, I thought I was buying, and paid for, a new product. It may be new, but the packaging (original) was definitely previously OPENED and then poorly re-boxed. I was skeptical but took the heater out of the box anyway since the box didn't appear to be damaged.

All the parts were there except the two AAA batteries that are advertised as included. This could be an oversight on the person who re-boxed the heater. The remote worked okay but was just tossed loose in the box and could have been damaged or lost, BTW, the box exterior states two AA batteries included! I tried to install two AA 's before I realized only AAA's would fit (dah).

The assembly is very simple, no tools required. The unit, while operating in the oscillating mode is a little wobbly, sort of top heavy but acceptable. The pedestal telescopes and is extendable somewhat, in the highest position while oscillating it is a little noisy but in the lowest position I didn't notice it.

You can run the unit with or without the timer (8 hr max) and with or without oscillating.

The safety tip-over switch is built in to the unit (a mercury switch I guess) and is NOT a visible on-off switch on the bottom of the stand. I tested it and it works fine from any tipped position.

So far, so good :)

This heater works great. I like the display and the remote and the fact that it moves like a fan. What I did not like, the noise. It was fine at first but now it's louder than a fan. I would have given it 5 stars but the noise is a bit annoying.

***the noise comes once in awhile now. it's been used at least 12 hours a day for the last 10 days.

Frigidaire FRA086HT1 8,000 BTU Through-the-Wall Room Air Review

Frigidaire FRA086HT1 8,000 BTU Through-the-Wall Room Air Conditioner

Living in the South, it is difficult to get out of the heat. Our central air just does not keep up with the heat here. So I had a handy-man install the Frigidare 8,000 BTU unit in my home/office room.

It has been running constant, night and day since April without missing a beat. I can turn the temp down to "cold" and it works just fine. It runs quiet and cools me off.

In fact our electric bill has been less since I had it installed... go figure.

I highly recommend this unit.

I replaced a 1967 15,000 with my new 8,000btu A/C., demensions were the same,14 1/2" x 24".I did a direct mount through the wall and sprayed "Great Stuff" foam insulation to fill the 1/4" gap on each side and top. This has a sound berrier effect. When I point my 20" box fan toward my bedroom and turn it on medium speed, I can not hear my new Frigidaire FRA086HT1 8,000 BTU Through-the-Wall Air Conditioner running, unless I stand in front of it. It cools our bedroom, kitchen and my office located directly across from it. I will be buying a 5,000btu for my bedroom next spring.

Sitting in the same room with this air conditioner is like sitting on the wing of a 747. Very loud hum from fan. It does a great job cooling if you can stand the noise. Not recommended for a room with a television. You'll be turning up the volume and going to bed with buzzing in your ears.

I needed an air conditioner to replace the worn out through-the-wall unit in my small commercial office. This unit had the dimensions that I needed. I also purchased the wall sleeve to properly mount the air conditioner. After one summer's use, it has worked just fine to cool the approximately 500 sq ft area.

This unit died within 1 year and the back looks like the Titanic.Obviously Florida weather is tough on units but I have a window unit that is 8 years old and still works just fine.Warranty does not cover rust which is the number 1 reason these units break.Do not waste your time with an extended warranty as it is useless.

I used magnetic electric heater warmer bed before I used Aqua Bed Warmer. Since I liked to have a sleep with hot temperature of electric heater warmer. Bad thing was I had to wake up in the middle of night because it was hot. When I used Aqua Bed Warmer at first, I was disappointed with temperature. It was just warm not hot. However, I found out that made me have a good sleep without waking up at midnight. I'm very satisfied with it.

This bedwarmer is amazing. I ordered it for my daughter was being skin problem when she using the electric blanket. Yes, of course. No more STATIC electricity. She is very sensitive and don't sleep well if she a just little cold and hot. This bedwarmer temperature control is very accurate. She set the 102F.

This is an incredible bed heater! I used to use an inefficient wall heater to heat my bedroom, but now all I use is my Aqua Bedwarmer. It's extremely easy to set up and use. I like the timing feature so you can choose when your heat turns off after you fall asleep. This is a state-of-the-art product that everyone should have!

I got this product from my friend on the last Christmas.

Because there is no magnetic field like electrical blanket, my kids are more fresh feeling when they wake up in the morning.

We can set up the exact temperature that we feel comfortable based on the body condition.

It is very quiet during the whole night time.

I'm really pleased to have found this product, and my parents are very happy as well. My mom is the type to be wary about all things that may cause harm to our health (e.g. cell phones, GMOs, non-organic foods, processed foods, etc.) and tries to buy solely "natural" products. So, I'm really glad to see that she feels safe using the Aqua Bed Warmer.

I recently purchased the King size Aqua Bed Warmer for my parents because my mom gets very cold at night. She has always felt uneasy about the health risks of using a traditional electric blanket, but did not know of any other comparable options. She reluctantly purchased one several years ago, but got rid of it shortly afterward; I think she had a difficult time sleeping soundly knowing that she was potentially harming her body.

I was genuinely excited to find this product because it does not use electric to heat the blanket! The set up was VERY simple, and took no time at all. My mom was more than willing to try this product, and she loved it. At first I was concerned that they might be able to feel the tubes in the blanket, but they said they couldn't. Also, my parents are not the most tech savvy people, but they have no problems using the product. It is very intuitive and I only had to explain the controls to them once! They both said that the heat is perfect, and it is easy to change the temperature if necessary.
