Reddy Heater Heat Demon 30,000 BTU Propane Tank-Top Radiant Heater Reviews

Customer Ratings:

We bought a similar unit on Amazon last year and love it. Easy to mount on the propane bottle and light

This unit looked the same and the price was similar so I thought it was the same. It wasnt. It's hard to mount on the can. I had to bend the brackets to make them fit. The attachment to the propane valve is not the easy external hand twist mount found in most bbqs. It takes a wrench and the treading is poor so it takes some work to get it started.

Once installed the self strarters don't light the burners correctly. You need a match. Carefully not to get too close or you will get burned.

My suggestion. Look around for another unit with rave reciews. I'm not happy at all. 100 products purchased on amazon. First bad review

As a heater, these are very good. Use them outdoors or in your garage or workshop with the door wide open. They are inferred heaters. They work by using a flame to heat a metal grate into the inferred range, which heats anything in it's path. That is a lot of heat in a small space. I have found that with regular usage, these heaters need to be replaced each winter.

There are certain conditions where these heaters seem to be the only type of heater which will work. They don't throw any flames out, and rarely throw a sparks out. They don't use any electricity. You can use these heaters at sea level or in the mountains (or the arctic). And they produce a lot of heat.

However, if used inside, they will suck all of the oxygen out of the air, which is why I gave them 4 stars.

(I don't need to hear that someone died because of my recommendation.)

Plus the heater heads will get very hot.

Any heater designed with these same principles by anyone will have the same benefits and drawbacks.

I recommend them, provided that you use caution when using them.

Reviewed and purchased this heater through Amazon. This two burner heater works great! I have a 1 burner radiant heater that caused us to huddle around it. This one puts our a lot of heat and allows everyone to stay a comfortable distance from it. Shipping was fast.

Cheap Vornado TVH500 Whole Room Vortex Heater

List Price: $169.99

I have owned a few of these hot air fan heaters and this is by far the best. I have a large apartment with about a 12' high ceiling and I can notice the "vornado action" moving a feather hanging from a dreamcatcher at the corner of the ceiling with the fan sitting on the middle opposite side of the floor. This shows me that the fan is truely pumping the air around as it is heating and it is not just a gimmick or false claim. Other fans I have had did not do this and took like an hour to heat the room. The Vornado takes the chill out of the room within 15 minutes and is nice and warm reaching thermostat temperature by 30 minutes (most of the time depending on how cold it is.) What's even more impressive is that it is also so quiet I don't even know it's on sometimes!

However, since nothing is perfect here are a some design suggestions for the manufacturers:

1) The Sony remote problem is true, I have the same problem but thankfully my bed blocks my TV remote's "line of fire" so it rarely turns down the heater but it has on several ocassions--Vornado should have picked a more obscure signal to use for the remote.

2) The remote needs to be more ergonomic so it's easy to hold and there should be indentations on the buttons so that you know what to press when fumbing in the dark--as it is now it's too small and impossible to tell if you're even holding it in the right direction.

3) The fan is so quiet it would be nice if the red "on" light would actually turn green so that you know it's on.

4) The blue LCD display is way too bright--it's like having 2 nightlights on in the room...very annoying and I wish it was darker since there is no need for it to be so bright (I'd put black tape over it but then can't see the temperature).

Overall though, only buy this if you are truely a design freak, it is beautiful and the quality of the metal housing is well worth the price if you are willing to drop that much money on a heater to just look stylish.

In terms of function though you can get the exact same results by buying the much cheaper (about half price) original Vornado without the remote. A friend of mine has this original Vornado which is what inspired me to buy mine. There is also a "clone" type heater competing with the original Vornado made by Holmes and I suspect the performance of that one is going to be very comparable and also a bit less expensive. Hope this helps you decide!

We purchased the Vornado Touch Stone Vortex Heat 500 about a month ago. We have a room that is consistently colder than the other rooms in the house. We don't understand WHY it is colder since it was an addition, attached to the main central air /forced air heating unit, is actually BETTER insulated with more up-to-date windows, but is about 6 degrees colder (warmer in the summer) than any other room in the house. I plugged the Vornado in and the room is actually WARM! I am very impressed with this little, very quiet... you can't hardly tell it is running!... machine. I would definately recommend it to anyone that has this problem. We DO have a Sony TV/Remote, but the TV is in another room and doesn't affect the use of the machine. Actually, I leave ours on all the time and don't even need the remote. If this is the case I would go with the pp suggestion with getting the version without the remote. Had I realized that it was just as powerful I would have saved a few dollars and gone with the remoteless one for our use. HIGHLY recommend this item. I am very pleasantly surprised at how well this little unit works.

We have been using this heater for about 5 months now in our infant daughter's room. Up until last night, the product was fine. Last night we could smell a burning smell from outside of her room coming from the heater! The heater has never been moved and is always set to the same temperature so we are not sure what happened. Needless to say, this was extremely scary and we won't be using it anymore! All reviews I've read for the product are generally good so perhaps this is a fluke.

The LCD light on the top is also very bright and annoying it never turns off.

Update 2 months after bought it it broke, the fan intermittently stops running & the heat stays on so it starts burning itself up, it filled the room with strong burning smell/smoke. NOT safe.

I bought the Touchstone for my home office. It's a decent space to heat but I wanted to heat only that space rather then heating my whole house. The Vornado does the job. It produces a good amount of heat fairly quickly. The room gets comfortably warm in a matter of minutes. Perhaps about 10 minutes for a 10X12 room with a 8' ceiling. The heater is pretty quiet, I know it's there but it is not enough to disturb me while I am working. The remote and digital display are kind of unnecessary. In retrospect I would have bought a unit that does not have those features, if I could save money. This unit is pretty pricey. It works well, does the job but, is $$$.

Discount DeLonghi TRD0715T Safeheat 1500W Portable Oil-Filled Radiator

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $105.99
Sale Price: $84.99
Today's Bonus: 20% Off

I have tried the quartz and ceramic heaters which often require a small fan to circulate air past the elements to heat the air. I have also been in homes that use natural gas for gravity heat, central air, built in electric ceiling heat, and a natural gas wall heater. Most of the gas or electric element heaters that I mentioned tend to dry out and remove some of the oxygen from the air which can cause that uncomfortable "soar throat and headache" feeling. These DeLonghi oil-filled radiators don't seem to negatively effect the air since they use clean electricity and simply heat up the air through efficient convection and radiation. This model TRD0715T has side metal tubing that creates more of a vacuum effect which seems to make the hot air blow out of the top of the unit without the use of a fan. DeLonghi rightfully nicknames this as a "Dragon model" since has the effect of a forced air heater without the noise or extra electricity requirements. On low 700W, medium 900W, or high 1500W settings you can feel the hot air at least two feet above the top of the heater. A simple analog thermostat dial enables you to choose your desired temperature level for the unit to operate at. Other nice features include a 96 position, 24 hour timer that allows you to customize when the heater turns on or off throughout the day. There are also some nice safety features such as an automatic shut-off if the unit is tipped over or if the temperature of the unit gets too high. Although the sides and top of the device get hot it does not burn you if you happen to accidently touch it. These devices are very efficient compared to the other electric heaters and many people use them as very efficient room space heaters and they are able to turn down their central air systems to save on gas or electricity.

PROS: This oil filled heater is clean, energy efficient, safe, and works well at heating small to medium sized rooms. The clever design allows for a hot air vacuum effect which heats a room faster, this model includes a 24 hour programmable timer. Retractable wheels allow you to easily move or store the device. The sealed oil-filled unit with auto shut off features makes it one of the safest electric heater designs.

CONS: Not as effective at heating large rooms that have poor insulation or large open areas. Energy efficiency is limited to use as a space heater in smaller to medium sized rooms or very well insulated larger rooms. The heated air is very non-directional compared to forced air or reflective quartz or ceramic electric space heaters. Similar to other types of large electric space heaters it requires a very high (up to 1500W) electrical current from a single outlet which can cause problems in homes or buildings with very old or poorly designed electrical systems. It does not have a digital LCD temperature display which is a common feature on many other space heater models.

SUGGESTIONS: On their high setting most electrical space heaters can draw as much electrical current as a big hair drier. Make a plan as to which room outlet you are going to plug this high current heater into since it is recommended that you do not have any other high current devices plugged into the same outlet or on the same circuit as this heater. If you have any of the previously mentioned issues with your electrical system consider using the low 700W or medium 900W settings to help prevent any problems with overloading the electrical circuit. If you are on a very tight budget and you don't need a programable timer take a look at the very low cost model EW0507W (I also own one of these) which has less features and no metal side tubing but uses the same basic oil-filled radiator technology. When brand new all models of these heaters give off a "wet paint" odor which in fact from an anti-corrosion chemical used to protect the unit during shipping. Simply keep the heater in a well ventilated area when you use it the very first time and the odor will go away for good after running it at the high temperature setting for a few hours.

THE BOTTOM LINE: This "Dragon model" TRD0715T safe heat oil filled heat radiator is the best room space heater I have ever used. I am so impressed with this heater that I have purchased two of them. I give it the highest rating of FIVE out of FIVE STARS.

Just bought this, still deciding whether to keep it. Ran a little experiment, thought it might give folks an idea of what to expect.

Room size: 154SF (11x14)

Finished, unheated basement room, with one insulated external wall, the rest uninsulated interior walls. No windows, door closed.

Outside temp: 15F

Put heater in center of room

Put thermometer on a desk 6 feet away

Started at 10:20AM with a cold heater set on high, measured for 5 hours

10:20AM 49.6F

11:20AM 55.9F

12:20PM 59.9F

01:20PM 62.6F

02:20PM 64.4F

03:20PM 65.8F

So roughly 2 hours to raise the temp 10F, 4 hours to raise the temp 15F

Unfortunately, I suspect that none of the competing electric heaters would do significantly better, since they're all limited to 1500W. Since I'm reluctant to try a fuel-burning heater in an unventilated space, I may stick with this Delonghi and call it good enough.

Here's a review from the perspective of having used one of these for an entire winter. I bought one of these a year ago so we could set our natural gas heat on a very low temprature at night during the winter and still keep the master bedroom warm. Here are my observations.

1. It performed flawlessly and was so quiet we wouldn't even know it was there.

2. The timer is what sold me on the unit. 24 hours divided into small time intervals which may each be turned on or off give huge flexibility in when this heater runs and doesn't. It's on automatically only when you want it on.

3. The heat comes out the top. The sides stay very "cool" for a heater. I can put may hands on the sides for about a half a second, which means that touching the heater accidently on the sides probably won't cause a burn. It really seems to be built with safety in mind.

4. I would, of course, still follow the directions with regard to how close it is placed to other objects. As an additional safety measure, I bought a large, thick ceramic tile to put on the carpet, and then I put the heater on the tile.

5. There is an oily smell that seems to come from the heater when it is new out of the box and after being turned on for the first time after being in storage for the summer. When we first activated ours two nights ago we smelled it, but tonight not so much.

6. Some seem to have had build quality issues and I can't comment on that because we seem to have received a good one.

7. I live in the Pacific Northwest where the winter temperatures rarely get below 30 degrees. I know in some places it gets way colder than that, and I have no idea how well this heater would keep you warm under those circumstances.

8. Right now we're running it in the family room to see if we can leave the electric baseboard heaters off for the winter. Of course, if this experiment succeeds, we'll have to buy another one of these heaters for the bedroom.

9. I have two small children, and once I've explained to them that they need to stay away from it, I have no safety worries for them.

So far, this is far and away the safest, quietest, and most effective space heater I've ever owned. For me, it sure beats a box with glowing orange heating elements and a fan!

Postscript: I bought a second one. When you are unpacking it, beware that there may be bits of styrofoam down in the heater. Look for those and get them out of there before you power it on for the first time. That may save some you some stinky fumes, but still follow the directions and let it run on full power with a lot of ventilation for at least two hours or more. I bought a second unit and ran it for three hours with the window open.

Second Postscript: Well, we bought a second one to see if it was more efficient than the baseboard heaters in our family room. We turned the baseboards off and ran this heater using the timer to have it be on about six out of every twenty four hours. Surprisingly, our electric bill this December was significantly higher than last December, and this is about the only thing different about our energy consumption. So, that experiment seemed to have failed, and then the timer on the second heater failed only ten weeks after we purchased it, so I took it back to where I bought it and decided to take a credit instead of a replacemet. I still love having the one in the bedroom for those cold winter nights though.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi TRD0715T Safeheat 1500W Portable Oil-Filled Radiator

I've had an old Delonghi oil-filled space heater for 15 years or more. It had a recall on the control panel. The last few years it has been leaking oil on high setting. So I searched and decided on the newest version of the old Delonghi.

This is a good product with easy control and a clever timer feature (took me a while to figure out, though NOT obvious, and I'm reasonably bright and handy!).

Only complaint, and it is fairly serious: when new, it stinks when run on high setting, which is only 1500 watts, after all.

There was a paper in the packing that said to expect some off-gassing at first. Well, I've run the thing for 5 days on high heat and it still smells toxic when running on high heat. The paint finish gives off some sort of fumes for days and days. I still cannot stand to run it on the high setting indoors at all. It really smells bad like curing oil-based paint.

It really stinks! I've been running it in the basement and it still is not nearly acceptable for indoor use.

I trust I will eventually be able to use it in an actual room. I'll give it five more days of blasting away. I may have to send it back. It is pretty heavy, though; I'd lose a lot of money on the deal from shipping costs.

This product is just what I was looking for and more. The speaker is very clear and high quality. The light changing is very nice in a dimmly lit room. The aromatherapy diffuser heats up fast and produces the scent in the room. I use this product in a medium size room. I know that the diffuser would not have a strong affect in a large room. Unless you would have more than one diffuser. I highly rate this product. I am very happy with this product. I am looking to purchase another.

This item is great! Looking at the features, it has a speaker you can connect with your ipod while the light changes etc. It's good for a bedroom or an office but it won't do the job for a big space. You're better off buying the ceramic oil diffusers that uses the tealights. I have a couple of those at home.

I use my rosemary essential oil with this diffuser and my room smells heavenly. It helps alleviate sinus congestion and put me to sleep. It is so relaxing. This diffuser by far is IMHO efficient and budget friendly. It has a two hour timer that automatically shuts off to prevent accidents etc. The mood light can still work as an aesthetic therapy. It's great when used at night. I've looked for other diffusers on Amazon.com but so far this one has met my expectations and my budget. Very nice buy.

Haier CPN14XC99 Portable Air Conditioner review

The recent midwestern heat wave sealed the deal to buy this unit. Costco.com's price was simply unbeatable anywhere else on the web for such an air conditioner. The closest online price on a comparable 14,000 BTU portable A/C was almost one hundred dollars more, for a lesser-known brand.

The Costco.com site proffered that shipping would take 4 days to our ZIP code. The unit was delivered via UPS on the second day after ordering. The driver left it outside our back door. Ordered on Tuesday morning. Delivered on Thursday morning. In the middle of a heat wave. Imagine that.

The CPN14XC99 is substantially bigger than it looks online, and it is heavy-about 95 pounds in the box and about 83 pounds unboxed. Removing the unit from the box required first opening the top flaps and removing the inner box containing the window panels, hoses, hose adapters and documentation; then cutting on a dotted line around the bottom of the box and then lifting the box off the unit. What is left is the air conditioner itself standing in a little island of cardboard and styrofoam about 4 inches high.

There are plastic packing straps running under the unit inside the box to assist in lifting the unit off the remaining styrofoam and cardboard. However I cut the strap while cutting the box open, rendering the straps useless. I bet that happens to a lot of buyers of this unit. I lifted the unit in a bear hug and my wife kicked away the packaging.

Upon inspection, we found that the remote control was missing... or so we thought. We looked everywhere-it wasn't in the inner box with the panels, adapters and hoses, although the batteries were there with the documentation. It wasn't in some cranny in the box's styrofoam, nor in the outer box. To all appearances, we had no remote control. We called the 800 number on the documentation and spoke to a CSR who informed us that he could not send us a remote, and that the people who could would not be in until Monday morning (this was a Friday evening). So we decided to set it up and use it without the remote. We could always call back on Monday.

The CPN14XC99's casters roll easily over hard wood floor and low-pile carpet. It took about 40 minutes and a little ingenuity to fit, assemble and install the window panels. The instructions are not clear, but it is not difficult to figure out with a little thought. The panels included with the CPN14XC99 were just a tiny bit too wide for our double-hung windows, but reversing the short sliding panel allowed for a snug fit in the window frame while extending just a fraction of an inch over the intake hose adapter vent.

There are two hoses, each with one connection adapter attached at one end. The user has to attach the other connection onto the bare end of each hose. I don't know why. If they are going to attach a connector to one end, why not just attach them to both ends of both hoses and ship them that way? There are no instructions on how to attach the adapters to the hoses, so here's how you do it: simply extend the bare end of the hose and screw the adapter over the corrugations until it is secure (almost all the way). That will save you the time and trouble of trying to push or pull it in like I did.

I attached both hoses to the window panel and the A/C, plugged it into the wall and pressed the Power button on the front of the machine. Nothing. I checked the reset button on the plug. The plug (yes, the plug) beeped to say it had power. Went back to the front panel, pressed the button. Nothing. Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot. Upon further examination of the front panel, I noticed that there was a piece of strapping tape over it. I pulled the tape off and the front panel came off in my hand. It was the remote, tucked safely into its compartment in the front of the unit! Under the remote were the real panel buttons. A press of that power button brought everything to life, and after installing the batteries in the remote, it worked just fine also.

The CPN14XC99 is installed upstairs in the southwest corner room of our old farmhouse. This is the room that gets the most sun exposure from late morning through sunset. It is also the office with most of the heat-generating computer gear. Within one-half hour of powering up the unit, the temperature in the room dropped from 87.5° F to a chilly 69.8°. It also seems to be cooling the rest of the upstairs (two other rooms, a hallway and a bathroom).

Three days later, with heat and humidity around the clock (temps well over ninety, with dew points close to eighty degrees leading to heat indexes approaching or even exceeding 110°) the CPN14XC99 has had its hands full keeping up. It has not faltered or hiccuped at all.

It is a little noisy when the compressor kicks in, but no more than any other window or portable A/C. Three fan speeds are remarkably effective at controlling how quickly temperatures change (or are steadily maintained) in the room. Have not tried the dehumidifier function nor the timer function so far. Nor have I tried using it with only the exhaust hose hooked up as some other buyers have advised. One last positive: we can still conveniently open the window when temperatures drop next week.

So those are the pros.

The only con I have to offer is the lack of lighting on the remote. Without memorizing the six buttons, the remote is worse than useless in a dark room.

[Edited, August 08, 2012]: Over one year on and the Haier continues to prove its worth in one of the worst heat waves and drought in Wisconsin history. I cannot speak highly enough of this unit in the unbelievable muggy, long-term heat wave of July, 2012. As of today, the temperature has finally dropped to more "normal" levels with the same predicted for the rest of the week. But all last month was really bad. Practically all of July provided unrelenting misery with its day-and-night combination of heat, humidity and high dew points. Even when the temperatures dropped, the humidity remained so high that minor physical efforts drenched clothing in sweat and smooth surfaces everywhere stuck to flesh like glue.

Through all of this, this year-old A/C unit provided continuous relief and protected our office electronics from the air's heavy moisture content. Inside our 12x13' office (described earlier), the unit's dehumidifier function was amazing. We could easily detect the change in the air within seconds of turning it on. The only issue for us was that the dehumidifier automatically sets the temperature level to 75° F, which was a few degrees too cold, even without desktop fans running. Seriously, in two years I feel as though we have gotten our money's worth out of this thing. I hope it last another ten years, but even if it doesn't, I have no buyers remorse at all.

Funny thing about this unit. The entire first summer I had it, I was so disappointed at it's lack of cooling capability. It couldn't get my small bedroom more than 2 degrees cooler. The second year I pulled it back out of the garage and was cleaning it up and realized it has a vent on the top of the unit that when you pull it up, allows all of the cool air to come out. Once I did that, it was an unbelievable difference! Although I felt extremely silly for never having realized the vent was there, now that it's been open this summer I can set the unit temp at 65 and curl up on my blankets nice and cool every night. During the day, I open my bedroom door and aim it to blow down the hallway and it keeps my whole upstairs around 73 or so which is reasonable given the size of the floor. Even while cooling the whole upstairs, it still keeps my bedroom at cool 65!

The only con I'd mention is that it never shuts off. It has a temp you set it to and once it reaches that temp, it turns to fan mode. But as long as the power is on, it will run 24x7. I do wish it would turn off once reaching the set temp and back on when needed but other than that it works fantastically. It is a bit loud and extremely heavy. I could not possibly carry it upstairs by myself had to get help. So it's 'portable' as long as you are rolling it from room to room on the same floor, I'd say.

Purchased this unit for three reasons. We live in a remote area which is

both vulnerable to power failures and at the end of the line for repair

if a problem occurs. Our backup generator will run the house and

a portable heater/AC but not the heat pump. The unit is perfect for this

and the dehumidificstion function is a bonus.

Works perfectly so far and the dual hose capability is a great feature.

A Colorado room that faces west gets the summer sun and heats up horribly. This one fits in the vertical casement windows and on a 100° day the temperature in the 10 x 12 reached a low enough point the A/C unit shut off completely. Took about 2 hours to get there from full temperature, so it was a challenge that was not easily met.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Haier 14,000 BTU Commercial Cool Portable Air Conditioner

while it does cool, mine does not get rid of humidity, in fact, when the a/c is running it pumps more humidity (like upwards of 15% higher than in the rest of the house) in rather than removing it. Now I have to run a dehumidifier at the same time just to try and keep the humidity at a bearable level. I would recommend one with the actual bucket you have to empty over this at least that way you know that the water isnt being pumped back into the air.

After using one of the little Mr. Heater "Buddy" heaters, I expected this to be the same only larger. It's not.

Unlike the "Buddy", this does not have any way to regulate the heat except "on" or "off". Also, it doesn't have a pilot light. Instead, you just hold in a springloaded valve and let gas come out into the heater. There is a piezo sparker that is supposed to light it up, but I have not found it to work very well. However, using a match works OK, and a lighter-on-a-stick (for BBQs and fireplaces, etc.) would work even better.

But once it is lit, it really works quite well. Radiant heaters don't heat the air directly, so the heat tends to be fairly even by the time the surrounding objects start heating the air. This does take some time, though, depending on the size of the space you are heating.

Also, unlike the "Buddy", this requires ventilation, both at the ceiling and at the floor.

Shutoff is done just by shutting off the valve on the propane tank. There is a safety switch, however, which prevents the heater from continuing to pump the place full of propane if the flame goes out.

This is really more suited to a sheltered environment, like an unfinished garage or a carport, but not an indoor environment (like a house). I have used it in my garage. It's fairly quiet in operation, though it does moan during startup.

It runs off of a regular BBQ-sized propane tank (or bigger). According to the manual, it will not work properly running from a smaller tank.

I bought 3 other type of heaters with-in three weeks before trying this one. It works great. We use it to keep warm as we enter and exit our Hot Tub on our patio. It is easy to use and puts out more than enough heat, even on days when it was below 30 degrees. It would be nice if there were a way to regulate the heat output. On warmer days we just move the heater farther away and on colder days we move it closer. Very satisfied with this purchase.

Honest reviews on Mr. Heater MH35LP 35,000-BTU Propane Radiant Heater

I ordered the Mr. Heater MH35LP, but received a slightly different product. The box is labeled Heatstar by Enerco with a part number of HS35LP. It is missing the wheels and upper handle as pictured by Amazon. There is a small sticker placed over the Heatstar label that says MH35LP, but it's clearly a different product and there is no reference to the Mr. Heater brand on the product or documentation.

I suspect that the Mr. Heater and the Heatstar brand are manufactured by the same company and may be equally good products. However, I don't support Amazon sending an alternative product without my consent. It's false advertising to say the least.

And for those that might be ok without the wheels and the handle, consider that the one I received didn't include the hardware required to install the stand that holds it upright. I can't even use this one.

I ended up purchasing this for the covered portion of my back patio since the ceiling was two low to safely use the "normal" heaters that you see on patios at restaurants.

This Mr. Heater unit is a bit more industrial looking than those but it's low profile keeps it from grabbing your attention.

What you don't see in the picture (or in the manual or in the description) is that the supplied hose for connecting to the LP cylinder is a generous 12 feet long. The manual (which is overburdened with safety information) wants you to keep your LP tank at least 6 feet away so this gives you plenty of lee way.

Some people have noted problems starting the unit with the supplied piezoelectric starter but I had no issues there. It starts reliably for me every time. I have to admit that it does take a bit longer than I was comfortable with the first few times and there is a definite "woosh" that you get as the gas finally ignites but I never felt it was dangerous and the piezoelectric spark is visible so I *know* it's going to catch in fairly short order. It seems to take about 3 times longer than does my piezoelectrically started bar-b-que.

One note: The Mr. Heater website is not that great. You can't register your products there as of this writing. And their "contact them" form suffers from the same issue (cannot select mandatory State field), so you've got to use an actual stamp to register. A minor item unless you need support from them which I did not.

Napolean Fireplaces Efl48 Wall Mount Electric Fireplace With Heater Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I am an interior decorator and have ordered a number of electric fireplaces in the past. All of them really cool, and the clients were happy. This one the fire was so fake it was comic. The surround was very sleek but the actual fire part was goofy looking. Then I had a difficult time with the return, it took close to a month to get return authorized from Fire and Water. Then it cost me over a hundred bucks to ship it back to them. I gave it 2 stars because the surround really was cool. Too bad.

Breville SK500XL Ikon Cordless 1.7-Liter Stainless-Steel Electric Review

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $99.99
Sale Price: $79.95
Today's Bonus: 20% Off

We've had ours for one month after the cheapo plastic one died. I investigated multiple other high-end electric kettles, including Cuisinart, Chef' Choice, Krups, Braun by reading reviews on-line and comparing them @ the local bricks & mortar stores. The Breville is clearly the best designed one for the money.

Pros:

clean, beautiful design which is also easier to clean.

hefty, substantial base unit with place to wrap around the cord

boils quickly in 4 min. for full 1.5 L

more substantial kettle than more expensive models by Chef's Choice or Cuisinart. The Chef's Tools electric kettle @ the same price point looked flimsier. In fact, the floor model Chef's Choice kettle was no longer closing or opening its lid properly-always a bad sign when a floor model falls apart.

modest yet easily audible "ping" sound when the water has come to a boil, and the kettle shuts off automatically.

the outlet is easy to pull due to the hollow center design

Cons:

heavy kettle.

occasionally, there's a metallic taste in reboiled water if the water was left inside the kettle for several hours. However, the water tastes fine if you boil a pot from freshly filled water.

Overall, clearly the pros outweigh the cons. We're heavy users of the electric kettle, especially in the winter, boiling water for teas, soups at least 4-5x per day. We'll report back again in a yr after the warranty expires.

UPDATE > 1 yr after post (4/6/08): The Breville Ikon is still going strong. The water seems to be taking a slightly longer time to boil. We still use it 3-4 times per day, and it works well.

UPDATE 12/19/11: Kettle still going strong. We still use it 2-3x/day, and it still works great. Wow. Worth every cent.

While there is typically little difference between any two electric kettles, this one is at least at the top of the spectrum.

1. Being an extremely convenient home appliance "discovered" by the Europeans decades ago, and later in the USA, the electric kettle always left one concern: compared to its mundane predecessor it was typically made of plastic inside and out. Which could potentially mean various unhealthy substances emanating into the water from the plastic sides, especially at high boiling temperatures. This one is made of stainless steel and doesn't cause any such concerns.

2. The kettle can be rotated on its cordless base, which makes it easier to put it back on the base than some other models.

3. It has a transparent wall segment to measure water level. While this "window" is not located optimally (somewhat shadowed by the handle) and hasn't got a bright floating level marker, this design is sturdier than some others, and is less prone to leaks.

4. Blue back-light that goes on and lights this "window" when the kettle is switched on, is a nice touch. It both attracts attention and simplifies reading the water level.

5. It's easy to open the lid, and the opening is wide to add water with no problems or dripping. (In some models the handle partly covers the lid, making it hard to open and/or add water.)

6. Like in most up-to-date models, the heating spiral is NOT located inside the boiling case, but rather underneath it, which makes the design more relaible, and it is also much easier to wash the kettle inside if need be.

7. Time to boil is reasonable and not worse than average.

Best Deals on Breville SK500XL Ikon Cordless 1.7-Liter Stainless-Steel Electric

Truly a top notch product. I was tired of lukewarm water "nuked" in the microwave for tea or hot chocolate at the office so, after consulting other customer reviews for products under the "electric kettle" search, I took the plunge. A bit expensive, but worth it.

Pros:

1. Stainless inside and out. No plastic taste or chemical worries.

2. Very comfortable handle, nice curve to it, and totally insulated.

3. Cord minder on the base bottom; allows you to tailor the cord length to your needs. Cord very sturdy.

4. Separate base contains the cord. The kettle itself reminds me, from the standpoint of heft and size, of an "old fashioned" stove top percolator

5. The removable kettle itself; also, you can turn the kettle around to any point on the base; it doesn't have a notch or fixed position

6. Construction appears to be quite solid. Push a button and the top opens up automatically (not just a cheap spring, either). Glass center insert on top so you can see in; top is also domed to direct condensation back into the pot; haven't had any problem with water dripping onto the counter (or hand!) when opened.

7. Quick; heating just one mugful of water to boiling is easily faster than the microwave (same time in microwave will leave you with hot, but not boiling water).

8. Easy to clean; the opening is wide enough to get your hand in, and the top opens up to 90 degrees. There is a rod that runs up the inside, part of the temperature sensing system, but there's room enough to get a soft cloth behind it, you'd just need to avoid too much force. Cleaning, however, is not a big deal overall if you use it for its purpose heating WATER only (don't heat your soup in this; it's not made for it).

9. Looking at other reviews, it seems that some people like to fill the kettle via spout rather than main opening spout is nicely sized to easily allow this, if you want.

10. The water gauge is big, well marked and very nicely lighted, thus easy to read.

11. Automatic turn-off at boiling temp, and also has a function to avoid boiling dry (The boil turn-off feature kicks in about 30 seconds after you can see the water boiling; I haven't personally tried to boil it dry, so can't comment on that feature). There's a nice, but soft, single "ding" that it makes when it turns off. You might not hear it from another room, but it shouldn't damage itself by boiling dry, so even if you miss the ding, it's not a big deal.

12. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to mine its lines are clean, simple and elegant. Should fit with just about any decor. Fingerprints on the outside stainless haven't been a big issue; wipes clean with damp cloth.

Comments (not "Cons"):

1. Regarding another reviewer's comments about weight, it does have some "heft," but on the other hand, it has a good capacity! To heat one or two cups, it's handy enough. Stainless steel will be heavier than plastic, so if weight is an issue for you, you may wish to consider this point.

2. I wish the otherwise nice switch wasn't directly at the bottom end of the handle, but this really isn't a big deal.

3. I've seen reviews indicating that stainless steel pots get hot on the outside. This one probably does, too (if you put your hand near it after boiling, you can sense the heat). Well, the handle is perfectly insulated, and this is NOT an insulated device. I wouldn't put my hand on the outside of any "regular" metal pot or pan (steel or aluminum, like those found in any kitchen for daily cooking)that had a boiling liquid in it, so I wouldn't do that with this type of device, either!

4. Reviewers of other kettles have suggested that the device may leak if water is left overnight. Have not had that problem with this, but then again, we empty it at the end of each day.

5. Have not had any problems with rust, as has been noted with competing products, but see comments in #4, above.

Before purchasing, I looked at the competition in stores, and a friend has "another leading brand" competetor; this seemed superior to the others in virtually every way (particularly build quality, the others I'd seen seemed rather "cheap" despite their price). Definitely recommend; this is a winner in our office; several people have already bought their own!

Honest reviews on Breville SK500XL Ikon Cordless 1.7-Liter Stainless-Steel Electric

First off, Amazon's part in this was excellent. The product arrived in good shape and ahead of schedule. The kettle itself was well-designed and of excellent quality. There, however, is where the problem started. On opening it, there was a heavy, oily smell. This is not unusual for steel items, so I went about boiling a couple of kettles as recommended in the instructions. After the sixth time, the oily smell was still present, and was strong enough to contaminate the tea. I even tried boiling a water-white vinegar solution and leaving it overnight according to the instruction to no avail. Finally sent it back a process which was painless and quite easy, by the way.

I recently bought this product, which has performed flawlessly so far. But two things I've noticed are valuable pieces of information for those planning on buying an electric cordless kettle, I think: First, the water gauge is behind the handle, which means you can't see the water level as you're filling the kettle, since you're holding it by the handle. This problem is not unique to this kettle, but it is an annoyance. I've learned about how much water it takes to fill my 16 oz. mug (a count of five), so I don't need to try to look at something that's underneath my hand as the water is running from the faucet. Maybe they're assuming you're going to be using bottled water and won't need to be holding the pot as you're filling it! My other caution is the very large, dripless spout. The dripless part is great, and it is truly dripless. However, it's also very large, so that a TREMENDOUS amount of hot steam escapes as the pot heats up. You really need to move the pot out completely away from any walls or cupboards or the steam will quickly ruin the finish. But if you move the pot out toward the edge of the counter, the hot steam may burn you, you spouse, your child, or your cat who suddenly decides to jump up on the counter. You really need to stand by the pot as it is heating up if you have pets. I have also noticed that our hard water is already leaving deposits on the bottom of the pot in just a few weeks, but that is my cleaning problem, not a problem with the pot. Another reviewer pointed out that the beautiful brushed finish does not stay beautiful very long no matter what you do, and I have to second that, but it doesn't bother me that much.

Interestingly, I bought another cordless kettle at Target about the same time, a cheap chrome one by Aroma, for my office. That pot, though smaller, does just as good a job for 1/3 the price, and the finish has stayed nicer. The smaller spout does not release as much steam. But it doesn't LOOK nearly as cool. Ha.

And here's a comment apropos of nothing: why can't the makers of these kettles make one with a stainless steel LID? If we don't want a plastic pot, why would we want a plastic lid? It boggles the mind. But try to find a decent pot with a stainless lid.

This kettle is everything you could want! I use it mostly for french press coffee, but my guests have used it for various kinds of tea, instant oatmeal, or hot chocolate with great success.

I did a lot of research on these kettles, and I found that the one thing to avoid was kettles with plastic insides. Every single one with plastic innards had comments about plastic taste in the water. Stainless and glass interiors didn't have this problem, but glass was more susceptable to scale buildup. So I went with stainless. There aren't many of these kettles with stainless insides, and the ones there are are generally more expensive. I looked at the Breville and some others, but they were simply too much money. This one, while not cheap, offered a great feature set, accurate temperatures, stainless interior, good controls, unobstrusive base, and pretty nice aesthetics.

The kettle is easy to fill, solidly built, and heats water very fast. It finishes its heat cycle with an authoritative BEEP that I can hear from the next room as I watch Sports Center. Another bonus is that even once it has reached temperature, it will keep the water at that temperature for up to 30 minutes, so if I'm busy doing something else, my kettle can wait until I get there, and my water isn't too cold or too hot! The most important thing about a good cup of french press coffee, besides the beans, is the temperature of the water.

The base is very minimal and you don't even notice it when the kettle is sitting on it, it looks like one piece of the kettle. The controls are easy to reach while holding the kettle by the handle, and the little LED light on the water level indicator is bright and helps you see the water level in a dimly lit early morning kitchen. It also automatically shuts off after a bit if the kettle heat has been turned off. The kettle will turn off automatically after a certain amount of time, but it also is easy to turn off once you've poured out your needed water by pressing the "keep warm" button again.

Cleaning is as easy as making a water/white vinegar mixture and letting the kettle boil for 10-15 minutes, then rinsing it out a few times. This removes lime scale deposits and calcification.

For the build quality, looks, features, and performance, I can't rate this kettle high enough! Look no further!

UPDATED entire review on 9/12/2013 (Originally purchased and reviewed on August 2010)

We've owned Krups FLF2-J1 electric kettle for about 4 years and while it was doing the job I was desperately looking for something with selectable temperatures until I saw newly released CPK-17. While there were no reviews available at the time of the purchase I decided to try it out anyway and I was perfectly satisifed from the first cup of tea. We've been using it for over 3 years now and still enjoy the kettle as the day we got it. There is no rust on the kettle and all functions are working. It needs some cleaning, but that's a personal choice.

What I like:

Selectable temperatures. This was main feature why I bought it on the first place. I don't ever boil the tea, I prefer 175 degree setting and no more burning tongues!

There was no smell when it was brand new

Stylish looking even after 3 years I still like the look of it

Fits a cup more then a previous Kettle I had, but I rarely fill it up

Blue led when in operation

Surprisingly quieter then I thought it would be

Beeps when ready

There is a setting to keep water wamr for 30 minutes

Faster tea preparation when selecting lower temps

Cap opens with a push of a button

Neutral:

It is on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for, it's solidly build and looks stylish, plus it's been working for 3 years with daily use

Some plastic there, but not too much

Not so Great:

They didn't make one 10 year ago, not really a con, but you know...

Stains easily

Best Deals on Cuisinart CPK-17 PerfecTemp 1.7-Liter Stainless Steel Cordless

I did pretty extensive research before buying an electric kettle. The CPK-17 appealed to me on a few different levels. I liked the design, the materials used and the functionality. Although it's nice to have the option of different temperature settings, it's really only useful if you drink a lot of tea, which I don't. I generally use the "French Press" and "Keep Warm" settings, and there's also a Boil option (which is the next setting up from French Press). On the design side, it's a great looking appliance made from mostly stainless steel. Of course a big concern of mine is the use of BPA-leaching plastic in many kettles on the market, but there appears to be none on the interior of the CPK-17. The water level, as far as I can see, is covered with another sheet of steel. The only non-steel component I see on the kettle's interior is a silicone nub near the bottom, which nearly all kettles have and which are also heat-resistant. Another thing I like about the CPK-17's design is the 360-degree swivel capability of the kettle while resting on its heating element. And of course, the illuminated water level (on when the kettle is in use) is very attractive a nice soft blue color. The pouring spout is perfectly-shaped which makes for a fool-proof pour every time. In terms of functionality, the CPK works exactly as advertised. Heat-up time is quick and the controls are responsive.

The major complaint I have with the CPK-17 is the fact that it's already scaling at the bottom and I've only had the kettle for 2 weeks. To me, this is crazy especially considering I use filtered water by Multi-pure (one of the most advanced filtration systems available), so the water is as clean as it gets before it even goes into the kettle. No chlorine, no calcium, no lime -so what's with the scaling deposits already? It's annoying, and I wonder if other owners have had similar issues. Anyway, I'm giving this product 4 stars. To recap...

Pros:

great design, little if any interior plastic

smooth functioning, fast heat-up

Cons:

Scales easily after only a few uses

Pricey

Honest reviews on Cuisinart CPK-17 PerfecTemp 1.7-Liter Stainless Steel Cordless

This has review three parts: (1) why you should get something like this in general, (2) specific concerns about this product not addressed in other reviews, and (3) detailed operational measurements (water temperature range)

=== Part 1: Why to get an variable temperature electric tea kettle ===

For anyone who drinks tea (unless it is exclusively black) or makes coffee outside an all-in-one, department store drip-brewer, this is absolutely indispensable. Though most recipes have been built to use only room-temp or boiling water (since those are the only temperatures to easily reach with consistency), more cutting-edge cooking as well as coffee/tea prep requires more finesse. Unless you're willing to watch the proverbial pot boil with a thermometer in hand, this is the only way to heat water on such occasions.

=== Part 2: Concerns / questions raised (and/or) left unanswered by other reviews ===

I won't go into detail about well-established pros and cons covered in other reviews, but I would like to make clear a few things I couldn't determine from reviews/specs before I bought mine:

("Hot sides/surfaces"): Yes, the sides get hot, and yes, it is startling to touch the metal outer wall when the water is hot. However, according to my IR thermometer, the surface never gets much above 130 degrees. Sure, that's hot and you should avoid contact, but for comparison many people's hot water heater is set this high and (as validated by my rather stupid intentional touch test) an accidental touch is highly unlikely to cause even a mild first-degree burn unless you actively fight the reflex to instantly pull away.

("Construction / Material touching the water"): True, the sidewall level indicator and the "frame" of the removable spout filter are made of plastic (the BPA content of which I have not conclusively proved or disproved) but the former is part of a small compartment which only a small amount of water reaches and which has very limited circulation, and the latter is removable. The entire rest of the construction that touches water is steel. Since hot water dissolves BPA from plastics, and aluminum's role in neurodegenerative disease is unclear, iron/steel and glass are pretty much the only materials I trust completely for food storage/preparation containers. In this regard, this kettle is the safest option I've found.

=== Part 3: Operational test data ===

As a tea fanatic with a minimum of four kinds of tea always on hand (black, red/oolong, green, and white) and general geek, I have meticulously measured the actual temperature of the water in the kettle for the various settings. I share them here in hopes they will provide a useful operational profile for buyers interested in temperature variability. (Bear in mind that the container you pour into will greatly affect the water temperature, so remember to preheat it by filling it with hot water right before use.)

I know this is half generally-relevant bullet points, and half geek-oriented test data, but I hope this review still has something useful for everyone.

Hi.

I almost never write reviews but I believe this one deserve it.

I purchased this kettle from Amazon 6 months ago for $99. I really like the thermometer and could live with the stainless steel look. It worked like a champ until about 2 wks ago when I begin noticing how unusually long it is boiling. I use my kettles a lot for tea, hot water...pretty much 5-10 times a day. One time the water was boiling for close to 3 mins with scalding water splattering out of the spout. My husband suggested I wait no longer for it to shut off automatically and do it manually before it blows up.

That's when I contacted Cuisinart Customer Service only to learn that the only thing I can get from them is an exchange with me paying shipping both ways....NO thanks, I am not interested in spending any more of my money on something that may fail again.

So I called Amazon and begged them to take this kettle back and give me a refund. Amazon came thru and I got $79 back today.

I did lose $20 and my faith in Cuisinart products but at least Amazon didn't fail me. Thanks Amazon.

PS: When I took the base of the kettle off to ship it back to Amazon I noticed that it has been leaking under the base.

Samsung WF330ANW 3.7 cu. ft. High Efficiency Front-Load Washer Reviews

Customer Ratings:

When my 5 year old Maytag top loader washer crapped out, I decided to replace my 18 year old dryer as well. I Purchased the matching set of Samsung 330 washer and dryer. If I knew then what I know now, I would have purchased these front loaders a few years ago.

I did a lot of research and found most of these front load washers use much less water, less electricity, and do a better job at cleaning clothes than most top loaders. My laundry is on the 2nd floor of my house so I was concerned about noise and vibration. And of course like everyone else I was looking for the best value for my dollar. Some reviews complain of vibration. Maybe they were not leveled correctly. Mine was delivered and installed professionally. The machine is super quiet and vibration free even to the touch. The only noise or vibration comes from the super fast spin cycle, and even that is much less than my previous top loader.

Here's what I have found so far:

Pros:

Cleans better than top loaders

Will handle much larger loads

Uses less detergent

Uses much less water

Uses less electricity

You can barely hear it run

Very little to no vibration, even to the touch.

The fast spin cycles removes more water from the clothes thereby making the dryers job that much easier.

Cons:

The cycles are about 20% longer than my previous top loader.

Be careful. Go to Google and search "Samsung washer won't spin". This washer has a problem spinning. My washer is installed in our basement on a concrete floor. It is level (has been checked by a technician as well as us). The load cannot balance and it won't spin. Once it tries to spin and can't, it throws the load back into a rinse cyle. This is why the load of wash on "Normal" takes almost 2 hours instead of 58 minutes!! Samsung finally admitted to us through the repair tech that the oil surrounding the drum gets thick at any temperature under 60 degrees. That leads to problems with spinning/balancing the load. If you are putting this washer in your basement or garage or any place it may drop below 60 degrees...think twice. We may try to return this to the store where purchased but I am afraid I will have to fight for it. A very expensive mistake.

I never really liked how this machine did wash. It was unpredictable in how long the cycle was, whether it would get the HE detergent completely out of your clothes, etc.

But this is what did it for me. An undocumented error code, that requires a service call, appeared on our machine 1 year and 10 days after we bought it (but less than 1 year after we received it since it was back ordered) and Samsung wants to charge me for a service call.

And the manager on the help desk can't do anything about it.

This is only what I can describe as horrible customer service.

Honest reviews on Samsung WF330ANW 3.7 cu. ft. High Efficiency Front-Load Washer

This machine doesn't have the annoying buzzer that our last machine did. It chimes. At first the dial with all the buttons was intimidating and I thought I would have to read the manual from cover to cover just to run it. However, I soon found out after turning it on how really user friendly it was. It even alarmed letting me know that it's hot water hose was crimped. Sure enough the hose was crimped and after getting it straightened out it was good to go again. It is really easy to pause the cycle too. This machine uses very little water and is very quiet so if your like me you may think something is wrong with it and sit with a flashlight looking in watching in amazement. You can really cram a lot in it and it all come out clean, and unlike top loaders it uses less soap and won't mess your bras up around a central spindle.

I LOVE this heater HOWEVER after 1 winter I stored it and now we are in winter again and I am getting a error message on the heater of "PF". I looked in the manuel and it says that it is a temperture sensor issue and I have to contact the Service Center. The "limited warranty" is 1 year so I am out of luck. The $80 I paid for this heater would have been worth every penny only if it had lasted more then just 1 year. I am considering buying a newer/different model because when it did work it was great! not only a heater but it also is a fan. Being able to set the temperture to what you want is very convenient.

I've used one of these for two winters and love it. This year we are buying one for our daughter to use in her room. We bought a different brand locally and are sorely disappointed because you have to sit within 18" of the heater to actually feel anything.... The DeLonghi TCH6690ER has a low and high speed that truly is the perfect two speeds to warm you up. I can set this in my cold master bathroom and point it into our bedroom to warm both rooms up. It's tall enough to be effective but not so tall that it will be difficult to store over the summer. This is the second one I'm buying so that should say something!!
