Comment:
We use the product in two houses that have rooms requiring occasional use which have partial central heating.Comfort levels we prefer are achieved without requiring costly improvements to the existing heat pump systems now in place; end of season sale prices at box stores make this oil filled product a compelling option to try out for yourselves. We love the comfort of an old fashioned radiator at rock bottom cost.As with all radiators they require common sense where children and pets are concerned.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
I bought one of these to use for my bedroom and did not realize that it is full of oil and gets very very hot to the touch. Myself and one of my grandchildren got burned just brushing into it. One of my helpers bought one for his house and brought it to work because he burned his cats tail with it.

Comment:
we use this heater in the master bedroom(about25'X25')with bath & vanity connecting over an unheated garage. I keep keep the setting at600w(low)(has 900w; both 1500w) which keeps the room at 80'. this allows the rest of the house to be at 66'.this one has lasted two winters.the one before lasted two winters and then would not work the start of last winter. Our electric bill has gone down each year until ks allowed kcpl to raise rates 40%. i use the 600w to save electricity. it is great except when my oldest son shuts it off because it is too hot, then it takes about two hours to get the room back to 80' from 66'. quiet ,great for my use.have use ceramic and blowers over the years; they run up the e bill
