    This heater is small but keeps my office nicely warm. Very glad to recommend this for a small office or bedroom. Especially appreciate overheating shut-off.

    It's a good heater. Has a lot of power. It seems like it doesn't heat up the whole room but it does heat me up if blown directly on me.

    This is small yet very powerful! Both settings work great and it warms and cools my kids room really well. Also, it’s very quiet!

    Never worked ! When I picked it up from the store I heard a noice coming from the box but didn’t think to check it out then and there. When I got home and plugged it up , It never came on , and the noice that I heard was a screw that was broken inside the heater
