    LESS IS MORE WITH THIS 200 WATT HEATER

    This little 200 watt heater is great for small spaces where a regular heater with the usual watts (750 watts I think being the lowest setting on a heater with a total of 1500 watts) would be too much heat and therefore a waste of money. I have a very small half bath that has NO heat that this heater warms just fine. A regular heater would be way too much heat even on the lowest setting and so I'd be wasting money. It also allows you to distribute heat throughout a room or the house by placing multiple heaters strategically instead of having all the heat come from just one higher wattage heater that can only emanate heat immediately around it and then spread only so far, and cannot flow into other rooms, So you end up with either too much heat for the room or too little. By placing several of these 200 watt heaters throughout, you have more control over where your heat goes, and not have too much heat in one area and not enough in another, and thus is more economical. The only drawback is that it stays on if it tips over or is dropped, not good since it is so small and easily knocked over. But in general, I was thrilled to find this and it is one of the best purchases I've made in awhile

    I originally bought two of these for my office since I wasn't sure if one would be able to heat it up considering the size. However, wow was I wrong! This little thing does the job just fine and heats the room up pretty quickly as well! Probably will bring the second one back since the one does the job just fine! Another great feature is that not only is it affordable, but it is also very quiet and small so it fits in my drawer, or bag when I'm not using it perfectly! Great purchase!

    Compact and easy to use…price point is very nice and it heats up small areas. Don’t try anything too big.

    Remember! This item is just a space heater, considering that and being aware of the size of this little heater, I should say I am very happy with my purchase. So far do good. For it’s size is pretty sturdy! It only sounds as loud as a tiny fan! Well there’s a fan in there, right? And no smell! it breaks the ice of my really cold (pretty big) bedroom and make it ready for bedtime! I did not want to warm the whole house for only get my bedroom warm! Also I was thinking of using it in a camping tent, need to figure out how to find an outlet, unless for RV Park tenting. I wish there was two settings, one for only fan and one for the heater! Oh well!

    I absolutely love this little heater. I’m a nurse and I work at night and it’s great to have while I’m at the nurses station charting in the middle of the night!

    This personal heater is just what i needed. I have purchased several more expensive heaters that say low and different wattage and they all trip the power. This one doesn't and has the tip over protection. I have 3 of them and use them to knock chill off. i have others room heaters as theses are not intended to heat an area. Like it says personal heater. love love these. I wish there were more low wattage items available.

    Its a nice little personal heater. It did draw closer to 300 watts for a while on startup, so if you are trying to use with a small inverter maybe take note of that. I was able to run it on a 500 watt inverter with no issues, and it did settle down to 200 watts after a number of seconds. The heat, actual temperature of the air it puts out, is very nice. The Air VOLUME that it spits out is very low, however. This would not be suitable for heating rooms. It *might* take some of the chill out of the air in a small bathroom, but if it did that would be the most it could do. Otherwise basically just for creating a little personal bubble of warmed air, maybe by your feet at a cold desk or similar. Might be suitable for heating something like a small doghouse, if the doghouse is insulated and has a decent sealing flap over the door. I haven't tried that but if I did, I would use a wireless thermometer to verify its actually making a difference. It does not have a tip sensor that I noticed, so be aware of that too. If you can snag one under twenty bucks not so bad, but not really worth full price, and again, not for area/multiple person heating at all.

    I have mine in a small bathroom that isn’t heated. And it can get fairly chilly due to the cold air that creeps in through the exhaust fan duct. So far this little heater has more than proven it’s worth. It sits on top of the toilet and keeps the room warm 24/7. I’d highly recommend it for similar applications.

    I placed this in a small unheated bathroom under our staircase. Its just powerful enough to take some of the chill out of the air on colder days. I can't imagine that this would do much in a larger space unless you were using this on a desk or to warm your feet.

    Great 200 watt little heater. I tried it on a friends 330 watt power station and it started at 250 watts but then changed very quickly to under 200 staying at 196 watts, so it performs like it’s stated.
