    I bought a similar Vornado several years ago and it works great. This one, similarly rated in power, does not seem to be quite as effective at warming the same room (takes longer). I still like the unit but at the cost I expected the same performance.

      At Vornado, we take pride in our products and are sad to hear the product did not meet all your expectations. We appreciate you taking the time to give us some feedback on this model. The Auto Climate Heaters will run more, as they are trying to keep the temperature constant. Feel free to contact our Consumer Care Team at help@vornado.com or 800-234-0604 for any inquiries or assistance. vornadobrands
