Works great
Posted .I have had this heater for a few weeks now and so far it is working better than the one I was using. My bedroom is the coldest room, it has zero insulation and I spend a lot on heating in the winter for a small apartment. This year I put down carpeting and got a bigger heater (this heater) and the difference is amazing so far. We had a cold week and it kept the room toasty. Until this heater, the best heater I have owned was a tabletop infrared I picked up on sale Black Friday two years ago. I also have a ceramic which works well too. This unit shuts off when it hits the temp you set it at, it also has low and high, I have been running on low at 68. We will see when the bill comes how it faired. I will update the review. Normally I need to run two heaters, one at each end of the apartment and the radiator in the middle on low, with this I have only used the radiator on low and my apartment is warm. I also move the dryer vent inside in the winter, why waste heat? I really hope it saves me some money along with the carpets I put down. This unit is much larger than I expected, very solid, it wheels easily which is why I chose it. It also has a safety feature for tip over but I could not see this being tipped over unless you gave it a hard kick and even then I doubt it would go. This is a very nice heater, nothing about it feels cheap. I leave them running when I am not home, I lower the heat when we are not there. I feel completely safe to do it. If you are looking for a heater that is well built and can heat a large room, maybe even my whole apartment if I placed it in the middle, this is a great unit. Also the 1st time I ran I did have a slight smell but I expect this and it did not last long.

So far going GREAT
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Three days in and we are loving this room heater. Previously we had been using a $35 Honeywell's space heater, but it was just too loud. This Optimus heater fan is really quiet. I'm so happy to have spent the extra money to purchase this. I just hope it lasts 3 to 5 winters. I've read online that this style unit, which is available from many different manufacturers can be defective to start or burn out early. Time will tell. If it does show any problems, I will be back to write an update. Otherwise, assume that it is getting 24 hour use in a cold Wisconsin winter location.

Very HOT!!
||Posted .This is the best portable heater I could find for the best price deal. It heats up very fast and no noise at all. The wheels under the heater help to move it very easily. The wooden finish makes it a good decoration table for flowers or other decoration items too.

Q: QuestionDoes the heater get hot to touch on the outside of the unit?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer No it does not get hot on the outside not even in the back where there is some metal. Where you can see the elements for heat in the front, probably would be hot when it’s on but I have never touched it. All and all it is a safe product.
