Kept me from freezing
Our furnace went out due to a faulty pressure switch, at the start of a few weeks of freezing temperatures. It was going to take a week or more to get the part we needed, so we bought one of these. It's a fairly small manufactured home around 1024 sqft. I set this one up in the living room, and a smaller Vornado in the bedroom. I kept it unplugged and off when I was away, so it took it a while to warm up the place when I’d get home, but it did keep the place generally comfortable while I was there. It was heating a fairly big area, and “toasty” wasn't really an option (nor was I expecting or trying for that), but it kept the place adequately comfortable enough to get us through till the part came. It was easy to use, and fairly light. I have no complaints on functionality. My only concern was due the design and placement of buttons on the top. My cats kept trying to sit on it (being a shiny new object in the room). When they did, they kept pushing buttons; accidentally turning in off, on, or changing temperature settings. Thus, this is why I made sure it was unplugged when unattended, so they didn't accidentally turn it back on when no one was around.

Great space heater
This heater has served my needs for warming my small space in a large room. It's effective, quiet, light weight and relatively small for it's efficiency.

smart heater for a big room
The portable heater is easy to use. The temperature settings are awesome so that it can save the energy. I use it for more than1 month. The heater works well so far. Since it is a portable heater, not e central air heater, I don't expect it can heat several rooms very quickly. The fan makes noise to some extent, but I put it in the living room. So I am fine, when I am sleeping in the bedroom, leaving the door of the bedroom open.
