Lasko - Ceramic Tower Heater - Gray/Black

Had one of these little space heaters before, it worked so well we were thinking about ordering a second one for another room in our home. Unfortunately, that one (a slightly different model, but nearly identical) was recalled by Lasko for a plug problem. However, their customer service was great about the recall and they replaced our old heater with a new one (this model). Like the older model, the replacement heater (this model) worked so well, we did end up purchasing a second one after all - and that is what I'm reviewing here (the newer model we purchased). As I mentioned above, it takes up a small footprint, but heats up our bedroom (12' x 13') quite nicely, so we bought ourselves this second one (which sits in our home office) and heats up that space (12' x 17') again quite nicely. These little machines are pretty quiet, they have a timer on them (so in case you are worried about leaving them on while you go to sleep, they will automatically turn off after a set amount of time), and have a neat little feature that measures the temperature in the room to maintain whatever temp you want in the room (set the temp, heater heats to that temp, heater stops, room eventually gets cooler, heater turns back on to reheat). It's cute, it's not bulky and it is quite portable too. Highly recommend!

I love this heater, heats up my room within a matter of 10 mins. Also, like the thermostat and how its able to maintain a room temperature. Perfect for the winter nights when the main heater is off. The only bad thing about these heaters is that dust can easily break them so after each season you have to clean it with an air canister, or take them apart and clean it. Good thing they have a 3-year warranty.

I've used this to provide additional heat to my daughter's bedroom. The thermostat function is nice. Remote is also nice. Moves a good volume of air and is relatively quiet. Very good performance for the price.

It operates quite quietly (fan and rotation)and is not annoying. The rotation is smooth. The remote is a very nice touch and handier than I thought it would be. The LED display is bright, but located on top, so you can't see it from the front of the unit if you are seated. A design flaw, I think. The three warranty is nice. Cobstruction is pretty much all plastic, so I wonder how well the heat grates will stand up over time when the plasticizers evaporate out of the plastic. Nice styling. There is a handle, but someone stopped thinking too soon and there is nothing for your fingers to grip, so you cannot pick it up sercurely with one hand

When I purchased this back in 2018 (now it is December 2020) there were a mix of reviews about this heater that made me worried especially since I was going to use it in a room with my newborn daughter. But after more than 2 years of constant use (and yes, here in Northeast Pennsylvania we used it many nights during summer) it is still working like charm. There were some complaints that the 2 prong plug gets so hot that melts the wire and become a fire or electricity hazard but what I have observed is that even after more than 10 hours of nonstop operation, the plug do becomes warm but not that much that you cannot touch it and it clearly does not come close to melting! I also must add that the one we have is very sturdy (maybe we got lucky!) as my now 30 months toddler has tripped it so many times, sat on it, rode it like it was her horse, dragged it bu its wire, etc., but it still works like charm! The power is also enough to make a cold 25 square meter room (almost 250 square foot) worm in about half an hour.

Should've owned this heater long ago. The heat works well for a small room. It' is very quiet. It has a remote control so it is to turn on and off.

I researched numerous portable heater and this one was at the top of many lists and I can see why. The heater is a tower style heater, which means it heats evenly around the room, not just at your feet. The temperature stays steady and has a nice easy to read panel on the top of the tower that is easy to reach because it is high off the floor. This heater is also very quiet, which is important because I use it in my home office. I plan on buying another one soon for my basement game room.

Great space heater with plenty of bonus features. I especially love that it has a remote. Also it's pretty easy to use. I'm no tech genius and even I could figure out how to set the timer without looking up directions. Very happy with this heater. My only minor complaint is that it makes a beeping noise whenever you turn it on or off or change a setting. The beep is actually kinda loud and I wonder if my housemates are disturbed by the noise when I come home late and heat up my room.
