This was amazingly cheap. It's a compact little devil and puts out a respectable amount of heat. It's a bit loud, but for the price who cares?

Heats my hall bathroom. I like the two-levels of power. The lower level though does not seem to do the heating job well. Not as compact as I thought from seeing the picture . Wish it had a handle. It will cut off if you get something to close to the front or back of the heater. If you do it takes a while to be able to restart.

Heats, then overheats the room

It is extremely overpowered, and totally makes the room unbearably hot in a small time. While this sounds like a good thing, since this is a space heater, this unit would greatly benefit from some kind of automatic temperature regulation.
A second con is that the hot air smells bad and gave me a sore throat. I know this because I tested this product for a month and always had a stuffy throat when this was on for longer than a few hours. Hence, only suitable for short use (15 mins) or so, for a large room. Not good for smaller room ( 10x10x10 feet). You need to remember to switch it off too.

Not the most quiet of small space heaters, but it gets the job done. Heats up a small to medium sized personal office space very quickly. But beware, it is rather loud so it may not be the best choice for a bedroom.

Great little heater, bought this on a whim, very cost friendly and functional, bought it specifically for newborn photo shoots but use it all the time. Only thing is that I don’t notice a difference between low and high mode, but it’s warm, and during winter that’s all I need it to do!

Works better & seems much safer than a more expensive one I bought. Unlike that one, this heater's cord does not get scarily hot so that I dare not keep it on. Nice efficient heat without worry

I wanted to auto turn on for my cold bathroom in the morning but this unit does not have enough BTU’s. Better for a small office cubicle space heater.

I bought this heater to warm up my study space and it does its job well. It’s always freezing cold and with the heater it makes the room feel more homey. Can’t speak for long term use but for now it’s working like it should. Wish it had an automatic off feature. Overall, I would buy this heater again.

This is a great fan to be used in medium size room. It is not made so that you replace your ac with this. It is for a second use for a temp around 35 c .

This heater will really crank the heat. I used it in an enclosed 10×12 room and it got hot. There is not thermostat so it will not turn off automatically.
