Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Addition as of Dec. 19, 2012: We've been using this heater constantly for weeks now that it's cold and I'd give it even more stars if it were possible. It's small, doesn't raise our electric bill much, and heats out big living room all by itself, and quickly. I've always preferred space heaters to whole-house heaters and nearly always buy one every season -never the same kind. If this one ever breaks down, I'll get another of the same kind. One of the most impressive things about it is the "low" setting. It goes low enough that I can put it right next to my feet and it warms without overheating my skin and making it itch. My cat also can comfortably sleep with it inches from his face without problems. I absolutely love this heater. (Below is my original review.)

Here in southern California, we don't need heavy duty heaters. In fact, I virtually never use the whole-house heater because I prefer, even in winter, to have a cold face and warm feet. I've been using little space heaters like this for at least 20 years.

We have a 13X20 foot living room and I set this Bionaire heater up in the usual place: beneath the edge of a very large double-decker glass coffee table. This way, my feet get hit, my husband, sitting kitty-cornered from me in his Laz-E-Boy gets a nice blast, and the table warms, which is an absolute necessity according to our cats. Some heaters accomplish only these requirements, but the Bionaire also easily heats the entire room, and quickly. The oddly rotating grill definitely amps things up, too. It's perfect for our needs.

Finally, and most importantly in our multi-cat household, if the heater tips over, it turns off. Last year I bought a heater for $60 -the Bionaire is only $35 -and it didn't have a safety shut off. (I hadn't even thought to check -I assumed it had one because of the price, and you know what happens when you assume...) Because of this, I couldn't leave the heater on for the cats as I normally do on the coldest nights. This year, our cats will be much happier. Recommended!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I'm always scouting for a better space heater for our guest bedroom/sewing room. It's the "bonus room," the large room above the garage, and is very chilly during the winter.

I have been using the original little ceramic heater made by Pelonis, Pelonis B-6A1, Classic 4 Disc Ceramic Safety Furnace, Brown. The Bionaire is about 1/3 larger than the Pelois and is about half the price. The Bionaire threw lots of heat, enough to warm up the room in short order. The rotating grill did disburse the heat more evenly and seemed to spread the warmth quicker than the Pelonis. Nevertheless, the ceramic disc design of the Pelonis is probably still the gold standard for space heaters.

My Bionaire was missing the owner's manual. There was no documentation of any kind in the box just the heater. However, the operation is fairly straightforward and self-evident. Some instructions are printed on the side of the box.

The Bionaire has an automatic cutoff, so, of course, I tried it. Upon tipping over the heater, the cutoff switch activated. I tried to restart it and, nothing! Then, I read on the side of the box that you must wait 30 minutes for the heater to cool down before restarting. Probably, a good safety feature.

The cord of the Bionaire is long enough that you don't need an extension. Space heaters are not supposed to be used with extension cords. A nifty little feature is a cord storage area on the bottom of the heater. Neatness counts.

This is only the second product I've bothered to review, despite purchasing on average over two products per week on Amazon. I do, however, appreciate all those who do write reviews and wish I had the energy to pitch in. BUT this product is so wonderful, I just had to write. It gives off plenty of heat to raise the temperture in my bedroom, which is approximately 20+' by 20+' and has a little alcove, which I use as a study EVEN WITH THE BEDROOM DOOR OPEN as it is now.

I have a thermostat in the room and this little space heater can raise the temperature from 64 to 70 degrees and keep it there. It does not have an odor that is annoying and most important, it does not get hot to the touch ANYWHERE and is quite simple to operate. Some reviews say their unit failed in 3 or so months (or even in a shorter time). Well, all companies produce a lemon or two. I've only had this product about 3 weeks and mine's fine. But even if it fails in a month or so, I'd buy another next year. At this price, for this performance, it's worth it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Bionaire Heat Circulator with rotating grill works great. We have had a few chilly nights here lately, perfect to give this heater a try ,it works great! Believe me when I tell you I have several different makes and types of heaters . This one holds it own with the best of them. It has a pleasing shape and two heat settings. You can also turn off the grill rotation. I also like the tip over overheat safty feature.I put it on high and it warmed an open 12 x 13 ft room with 9 ft ceilings. The only thing that took getting used to was the way the grill rotates. It slowly goes around instead of from side to side. It works just as well as my tower heater and as an added bonus the rotation of the grill mesmerizes my dog. Give this one a try I'm sure you will like it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I got this for my kids (aged 4 and 5) for when they get out of the bath tub. I put it in the adjoining bathroom (they have a jack and jill bath with separate sinks) and it heats the room up nicely for when they get out of the tub (and start screaming at the top of their lungs how cold they are) and makes the drying experience much more pleasant for all of us. I recently tried it on our sunroom after a rug got wet and we wanted to speed up the drying. That was a much larger room (14x14) and it was not nearly as effective. Still, it did warm the room some.

It is very quiet and overall it works very well. For smaller (11x11 or smaller?) rooms it is very effective and seems very safe. No hot, glowing wires or anything like that. It is very "plastic" and doesn't look engineered to handle a beating, but it works well and I would recommend it for anyone looking to improve the heating in a room, or counter-effect a draft or for our use, of heating a small bathroom area it is great!

Bought this heater for my man cave. Instructions were clear and I even called in for customer support to check on the breaker type and wire gauge, they were super helpful and knowledgeable. Total installation time took about 2 hours mostly to run the wiring from the breaker box to my wall location. As for heat, the 400 sq ft room heats up in about an hour from 30 to 70 degrees. Very pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking to heat a man cave...

I've had my heater installed for over a year now. I use it to heat my studio/garage. It heats up the space pretty quick and maintains temperature without turning off and on all the time. If space is a consideration, you'll like this heater. It takes up very little wall space.

After the date had expired for the Dimplex stove to be delivered, (remember, I didn't set the delivery deadline!)I contacted the seller who gave the excuse that all the Dimplex stoves were delayed in being shipped. However, once the problem had been addressed, I was offered a 10% discount which was to be credited to my card (it was not explained initially that it would be either a discount on the price of the unit itself or a credit to my account). I have not as of this date been credited (perhaps next billing cycle) but did receive the Dimplex stove in perfect condition within days of my inquiry. I was interested in a unit which did not exceed 1500 watts on the high setting as I was concerned any higher wattage would need a dedicated line; remember though, that most hair dryers are 1600 or more watts but we don't operate them all the time. I really didn't want the flame effect, just the heater which was a little larger than the small ones sold in major stores such as Wal-Mart, Lowe's, etc., but to my surprise, the flame gives just enough light so that I am able to turn off the lamp I previously kept on in the room where I have the stove. The blower is very quiet and actually gives a soothing noise which is conducive to sleep. I usually keep it on low but if it were really cold, the high setting would heat a small room or two if they were closed off. It is just enough heat to take the chill off cool evenings. I would venture to say that the heater would be a romantic addition to a bedroom as it is absolutely charming with its glowing flame effect and gentle heat. The stove is only guaranteed for a year, but then so too was a very expensive oven which I purchased for my kitchen and INDEED it was dead in about a year.... so don't expect TOO much from this charming stove for the money. I only wish Dimplex sold these in stores such as Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, Lowe's, etc., as it puts to shame the heaters/stoves they sell for less money, but who wants their utilitarian heaters/stoves junking up their home? To date, I am very happy with the Dimplex Free Standing Cube stove. As my husband states, "tell them in the review that the stove is lovely." (I can't believe HE said that but he really did!)

Honest reviews on Dimplex Cube Electric Stove, DCS19W, Chrome

I moved into a town home and really wanted a fireplace: Began doing research and found this solution! It is retro cool! It is the perfect amount of cheeze in a box. I love it, my daughter loves it, my cat loves it! One of the features that we enjoy is that you can have the fire effect on with no heat. So even when it is warm and rainy, you can have the effect of a fire and its soothing nature. I read some reviews that people were sad that it doesn't crackle like a fire, but it isn't fire it is a cool electric heater! Oh, and another selling point, is that because it is on a chrome pedestal it can be set on carpet (I confirmed this with Dimplex)...and it is portable. I don't know how well it heats a space yet, because it is summertime, but I suspect it will live up to its claims.

This thing is adorable, works like a powerhouse, and has been doing so steadily for over a year. It looks like a real fireplace, and makes the apartment feel much homier. The heat settings are surprisingly strong—I don't think I've ever had to use the highest setting, even mid-winter in New York—and my bedroom doesn't have heat but does have two giant, drafty windows.

Review of Hamilton Beach 40996 Programmable Kettle, 1.7-Liter

I've been looking for a programmable kettle that didn't cost an absurd amount, and I think I've finally found it. This replaces my old on/off boil kettle also made by Hamilton Beach the fact that kettle lasted for 5+ years (and was relatively cheap when I bought it) was a strong factor in my decision to buy another Hamilton Beach.

Pros (some of these comparing to some other kettles I've tried):

1) Nice brushed stainless exterior.

2) Push button handle to open the lid a nice change from the detached lid my previous kettle had.

3) Pour can be controlled fairly well for pour-over coffee.

4) Temperature adjustment in 5 degree increments. That means I can set this to 195F and get exactly the results I want. Others I've tried only had a few settings.

5) Fairly accurate thermostat. I've tested this with my old standby the probe thermometer (which I've used to make coffee for years as well), and this kettle is always within a degree of my other thermometer. Both might be horribly inaccurate, but at least they are consistently inaccurate together.

6) Live thermostat reading on the display. This tells you exactly how hot the kettle is while it's heating up. That's handy for timing things.

7) 1 hour "keep warm" setting which periodically re-heats the water. Either this works really well, or the carafe holds the heat in better, but I'm experiencing no heat loss during the time it takes to make coffee. My old kettle would lose 10 degF in the time the pot took to brew. Either way, I'm loving this kettle.

8) Solid feeling. It's not super heavy, but it doesn't feel cheap.

Cons:

1) Hard to read LED display this thing's a pain under our under counter lighting in the kitchen. It's *good enough*, but crap. An LCD display would have been a *lot* better.

2) Really unresponsive and hard to use UI. There's a few buttons to press to change target temperature and if you get it wrong, you'll set a start timer instead. The display flashes between two pieces of info a lot of the time, so it can be annoying to wait for the info you want.

All in all, given it's "only" $50, I'd say this kettle is a great deal.

Ever since seeing a programmable kettle in a store I've wanted one. I make anything from Cold Brew coffee (212 F or boiling), French Press coffee (best at 180 F), Black Tea (Boiling again), to green tea (175 F to 180 F). The cost was always a factor though since I already owned a cheap GE kettle that has lasted five years and still going. I saw this on sale and decided it was time. It works really well. You just put the kettle on, click the program button till you find the temperature you want, then click on/off button. It boils a little slower than my GE, but it gets to the programmed temperature and then holds that temp for an hour, which can be nice. You can program it to turn on in the morning, which seems a little more complicated with only four buttons, but I haven't had the need so I haven't used it. The temperature has been right on, you can't go wrong with this. The inside is all metal, so no plastic taste in the water.

I purchased this tea kettle at my local box store for $10 off list price when it was on sale. I was skeptical that a kettle in this price range would be any good and I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the clock setting is annoying but I just waited until noon and uplugged it then set the clock. I don't think I will ever use the time delay program because it heats so fast that I can turn it on in the morning and in a couple of minutes it's ready. It literally seems like by the time I get my cup & tea ready I've got hot water. Love that this is stainless steel, that there are temp setting for all kinds of tea (especially green which is my tea of choice) and that the kettle will keep water warm for 60 minutes after it's first done. When you take the kettle off the base the temp display will disappear but as soon as you put it back on the base the temp will reappear and the 60 minute count down will continue. I was considering spending $130 for a kettle with similar features and I'm so glad I did not and I have $90 more in my pocket. I highly recommend this especially if you get it on sale.

This kettle arrived in three days as promised well packed and in good condition. I've never had an electric kettle before and I was thrilled to have it. I noticed the cord was shorter than I'd like (about two feet, I think) which limits me but I found a place for it. I noticed my hand would not fit inside the opening so I wondered how I was supposed to wash it then I read the instructions and they say to boil water and discard several times to clean it for use. That was easy and very quick, especially when starting with hot tap water. The base instantly told me the temperature of my tap water and as soon as I hit the power button the temperature started climbing, I think about a degree every second. It didn't take long to boil a full pot five times. After that, I used cool filtered water to boil a liter. It was quick enough and made making tea easier than my previous arrangement of heating a mug of water in the microwave. It allowed me to pour the hot water over my tea rather than dropping dry tea on top of hot water. I still haven't tried using it for temperatures below boiling yet but I can barely wait to make some green tea.

Now I've made green tea. The kettle works as advertised, preset temperatures adjustable with the plus and minus buttons. It worked better for my green tea than I'd been managing with a microwave. I've used this appliance several times each day now for several days. It came in handy to add boiling water to soup.

I have been searching high and low for an electric kettle that I can set the temperature on. Most of the ones I found were too pricey or the cheap ones had horrible ratings. This one seemed to be a good fit, it was not expensive and the rating was good. I had a Hamilton Beach regular kettle before and never had an issue with it, so I feel comfortable with this brand.

I only used this kettle 3 times so far, so this my first impression. I will update it if anything changes my opinion.

THE GOOD:

*Comfortable to hold, even when full of water.

*Easy to read water level

*Heats the water very very quickly. It was ready by the time I had my cup and tea ready and waiting.

*Convenient 5 temperature presets.

*Shows you the current temperature of the water

*Very accurate temperature gauge. I took the temperature with my digital thermometer and it was within 0.6 degrees fahrenheit of what I set it too.

*Holds the water temperature very very well. After I heated the water to 190 degrees, I turned off the kettle and hours later the water was around 120 degrees. This is convenient since it will heat the second batch even quicker.

THE BAD:

*Terribly non-intuitive controls. This is something I rarely recommend, but please take the 2 minutes time to read the small manual. With the instructions, setting the time and temperature was not too difficult. Once, you learn how to control it, its pretty easy. But don't try learning it yourself.

What a great heater. Totally silent, digital temp display on heater easy to see in the dark. Full featured remote control allows you to turn on and off, adjust temperature, switch between high, low and economy modes.

I have used it for four nights now to keep my bedroom from getting to cold without leaving on the noisy forced air system that cycles on and off and wakes you up. With the remote you can adjust the temp from the comfort of your bed instead of getting up. Don't delay buy it today!

This product worked great at first, but over time, this particular product line of Soleus Air Micathermic heaters will lose their ability to heat over time. Advertised at 1000 Watts, now, after 1 year, is 478 Watts, and loses wattage each day it's used. This means it's outputting less and less heat.

In my opinion, DeLonghi oil-filled portable radiators are one of the best options for safe, reliable room heating. There is nothing to spill, no open flames, and nothing gets so hot that it would burn you instantly. You don't have to fear falling asleep while they are heating. They're nicely designed and unobtrusive, making no noise other than the occasional tick or pop as the thermostat cycles and they heat up or cool down. I find this a comforting reminder that my heater is doing its job. No assembly is required other than rotating the feet out--just pop it out of the box and it's ready to go! The cord has a holder around which it can coil, eliminating the need to tie it up, and since you just wind the cord around it, you don't have to worry that some automatic retraction device will get stuck. This model can be used with the thermostat or without, and both are very simple to operate. All controls were easy to see, even in dim light, and the instructions were clear. It's very easy to move the heater from room to room, even if it is hot, using the little hand-hold. This heater kept a very large bedroom and bath pleasantly warm even on the low setting, while outside temperatures were 36 to 43 degrees, wet, and windy. The color is a tasteful grayish white with dark gray accents, so don't be turned off thinking this is "refrigerator white." I would definitely buy another DeLonghi like this one!

Last year I had 1 that only heated 3 rooms and one room closed off, set on 3 all Winter long, This year I purchased a 2nd one and all rooms are open and heaters are set on 2 and in November we had 19 days in the upper teens & chill factor was in the range of 20* below zero. Comparing my electric bills Nov. '09 and '10, my power bill was $33.00

lower, only $56.00 in my all electric apartment of 978 sq.ft. I am not cold, I sit in front of my PC in shorts & a t-shirt, shoes & socks. You won't be disappointed. The 1st DeLonghi heater is 7 yrs old & still works just fine, its a name that can be trusted. These heaters work better & cheaper than an a/c heat pump or baseboard heaters, I know. I live 6665' above sea level in Nevada and it does get cold & windy. A secret, "buy yourself a 6" desk-fan and set it behind a heater on the floor too warm a room 18' square, works wonders."

Received this in the mail today. So far I'm pretty impressed. At first I was a bit puzzled regarding the instructions and all the switches and dials this thing has but once I figured out how it worked it was easy.

I'm using this to heat up a room that is approximately 10ftx20ft, and this room has a glass sliding door on one wall, and four anderson windows all together on the other two walls (the fourth wall connects to the house). The room does have a very small (about 5ft long) baseboard radiator but it barely heats the room properly.

I have this connected to a Lux WIN100 Heating & Cooling Programmable Outlet Thermostat, and it works great. I have it set at 76F and while the middle of the room (where this radiator is placed, dead center) stays at 76F the one side of the room stays at 74.5F (where the sliding door is, and it's 55F outside right now) and the other side 75.5F which is acceptable. I do have a ceiling fan in the room on low but I may need to add a floor fan in there to help circulate the air better and keep the temperature more even throughout the room.

Oh, and I have it set on medium power and it's doing the job quite well. It was able to heat a room stuck at 67-68F to 76F in just a few hours. Almost ten degrees...pretty good IMO. I was reluctant to set it at max power (the full 1500watts) over concern it may pop a circuit breaker. Setting at medium power (1,000watts I believe?) did the job. I'm using this heater to provide ambient heating for all my fishtanks to save on electricity (if I had heaters in every fish tank, I'd end up using 2-4x more energy than I would just simply heating the room itself). The advantage to what I am using this heater for is that the fish tanks absorb a lot of the heat pretty easily and keep the room warm when the heater is not on. Even if the heater were to stay off, I'm sure the room temperature would stay pretty steady for a little while before it starts to drop.

Here are the cons:

* The instructions suck... But if you just tinker around with this thing for a little bit you'll figure out how to use it.

* Not really a con but just a warning to potential buyers, you definitely want to heed the warning in the instruction booklet to let this thing run at full power either outdoors or in a well ventilated area for 2-3 hours because it does release an odor at first. But hey, all new products release odors...name one product that doesn't. New houses wreak of pine, cars have that new car scent or a leather scent, books smell like ink, etc. But definitely let it "break in" before you put it where you need more heat.

* I'm still not sure what the "ComforTemp" button does? And the instructions suck. Either way I just have the comfortemp feature shut off since I am using an external thermostat to control this heater.

Who would I recommend this to?

People who need extra heat in a room 200 square feet or smaller, are concerned about fire safety, and want a heater that is pretty reliable. This is the only type of heater I would trust to leave on in a house without being home. So far so good...

Honest reviews on DeLonghi MG7307CM Safeheat 1500W ComforTemp Portable Oil Filled

I've purchased two of these heaters in the last 6 months. I returned the first one after about two weeks of use because of the very unpleasant odor it was generating. I followed the recommendation of another reviewer (which is consistent with the directions in the owner's manual) and ran the heater on high for 2+ hours in a well-ventilated area to "burn off" whatever coating is applied during the manufacturing process. This didn't seem to help at all as the odor persisted for the next two weeks. Because I liked the heater in general, I decided I would try another one. I ran the second heater on high for two full days, hoping that this would permanently eliminate any odor. It didn't. Months later, the odor is there any time we turn this thing on.

This might not be a big problem if you are looking to keep your basement or your garage warm, but we were looking to use this in our childrens' room. Unfortunately the odor is just too strong and without really knowing the cause, it's impossible to feel good about having young children breathing in this environment.

Clean -no initial burning gas odors that we got with the DeLonghi EW7707CM. It takes awhile to heat up the room, but after an hour or so, you've got a warm room (this one heats a fairly large, 10' x 30' space). The ComfortTemp system, though, hasn't been of much use to us, as our space can get pretty cold (San Francisco) and seems to need more heat output.

We've had it for nearly 2 months now, and have had no problems. It's also nice that it requires no assembly -the wheels fold under.

The great room in our addition is large and has high ceilings. This winter has been really cold and the furnace has been running non stop to keep up. The thermostat is in this room and their are two bedrooms above it. To keep the great room comfortable it turns the bedrooms into suanas. This heater has completely solved the problem. Now its comfortable on both levels. I like that the unit itself is not hot to the touch as I have small children. This is the perfect heater for our needs.
