I tend to get bitten by mosquitos at all hours, and since I've been using the Thermacell Mosquito Repellent, I have not had any issues with mosquito bites, day or night. I love the size of the device and that it's not huge or an eye sore. You can keep it on the table with people gathered around and you wouldn't even know it was a mosquito repellent device. The device takes several minutes to warm up, with beeps and lights letting you know what's going on throughout. The cartridge was easy to insert and has so far lasted about an hour and a half over several uses. I'm not sure how long it will last overall before it needs to be changed, but I like that the smell isn't overly powerful. You can see a small mist being released, which seems to be perfect with keeping mosquitos at bay. Just make sure you are upwind from the mist, otherwise it will irritate your eyes. So far, very happy with this device.

I have been tormented by mosquitoe bites while sitting on my deck for years. No amount of repellant would keep them away. I purchased the Thermacell and it works. No mosquito bites for 10 days. I now have 2 Thermacells so that I always have a fully charged one ready. Love this product!

This product really works great! I definitley noticed its effectiveness against mosquito! However, it takes 2-3 hours to fully charge and I find it hard to connect the adoptor for charging due to its stiff port cover! The refills are also expensive but I got a sale price. This machine really works!

This is the first time I've tried this unit. It does do what it says. It keeps mosquitoes away. From my experience, the unit needs to be turned on 15-30 minutes prior to coming outside. I was outside for a couple of hours and didn't have any annoying bugs bothering me. Inam hoping one refill will last me a few uses but I'll have to wait and see. The only thing i do not like is the price of the refills. I wish they were less expensive. I am planning to buy a second unit to have as back up.

This is a great little mosquito repellent.
It uses a USB to charge it. So no cords needed while using it.
It has helped to keep those pesky mosquitoes from biting me and they love me.
I only wish the refills lasted longer and cost less.
They are quite expensive for how long they last. I would need to buy one every couple of weeks.

Loved the product. Especially since it's rechargeable and I can literally put it where I find it convenient. My baby has eczema and every time she would get bitten, it would flare up. Making it painful for my baby. Thanks to this repellent my baby did not get bitten up. ONLY down fall is cartridges are expensive, the usage time is low and the charging cable is an older version of the wall chargers.

I like the look and compact size. It easily fits in with our outdoor decor. It's easy to setup and the cartridge refill is as well. We live in Texas so the spring, summer and fall months bring in lots of mosquitos. So far so good with this device as we aren't seeing them in August when it's the hottest time of year for us which brings in the mosquitos.

Unbelievable, this created an invisible barrier around our gazebo and deck. Not one bite . These will be great when hosting parties, can skip calling someone to come spray. The best part is the device is small, it does not take up a lot of space.

The Thermacell instructions were easy to follow and the unit was easy to set up and start.
There is not any scent or spray while in use.
It repels mosquitoes in an area large enough for a small group gathering.
We found it worked very well for our purposes.

This device actually does provide strong enough repellant to deter all mosquitos in range and allow you to relax and have a fun/safe time. My only point off was for having to purchase the replacement cartridges, but overall 9/10 definitely recommended!

So I should have known that there was something wrong with this whole experience but yet I gave it a shot and my results were less than wonderful. I was actually motivated to make this purchase because of a cash back promotion that the seller sold. This was not only the beginning of the nightmare but things kept getting progressively worse. So we ended up buying this item however it not only did not work but it smells really weird and it made me very itchy. They are not an honest company they said that they were going to reimburse me in order for me to share my review which ended up being terrible by the way but I would still be very careful with purchasing such item because not only is the smell really weird but it does give people a rash and just knowing that they were very dishonest and enticing me to purchasing it and never refunding the cash back then that tells you everything you need to know about this company. The company I'm referring to his thermocell not Best Buy

Works pretty well as long as it’s not too windy. Really easy to use. I just wish the cartridges were a bit cheaper so I could feel better about using it more.

We enjoy sitting out on our covered patio but lately we have been getting eaten alive by the mosquitoes. We already own one of the small fuel powered mosquito repellents, but that one doesn’t last very long before you need to change out the cartridge/pad and doesn’t seem to cover a wide area. We upgraded to this rechargeable and portable Thermacell and so far so good! Not one mosquito bite! It’s easy to use, makes no noise and does not give off any scent. We love how it creates a 20 foot barrier of protection, so know we can rest assure that our guests will be protected from mosquitoes as well when we are entertaining. Very impressed so far.
