Bought this thinking the fan would spread the heat around the room after but it almost felt like the heat was not as ínstense because of the fan almost like it was cooling the unit down more than actually heating up

The major reason I returned this product is the thermometer. It always try to heat to 4 degree above and it will stop for a few SECOND, Once the degree drop one, it will start and make a LOUD noise. It will never stop running.

Terrible product. Shouldn't even be sold for saying it heats. Holding my hand 2 inches in front of it on high, could hardly feel any heat. Left it on in a small room for 10 hours, think the temperature may have gone up 1 degree. I returned the product.

I returned this to Best Buy because it just wasn’t powerful enough. Very poor at heating the room. Best Buy made it very easy to return it.

Unless the heater is two feet in front of you and pointing directly at you, its the only way you can get warm from it.

Pure garbage! The unit is extremely small. High speed is extremely slow, and blows barely hot air. You can't barely feel the heat. In my personal opinion, don't get at all

I don’t even know why anyone would buy this. Does it turn on? Yes it does. Does it work? It works. But that’s it. It’s a heater for like a few inches. That’s it. This shouldn’t be this expensive. It’s a personal heater and should cost like $30.
