5Effective, Efficient
By Brett A. Robinson
I was worried that this unit would not get the job done. Well...just like the Bible says, that time spent worrying was wasted time! We put this little joker in our cabin on the river to help heat it this winter while we were replacing our entire main HVAC system. The cabin has a large great room with ceilings 18-22' high and the bedrooms are off the great room about a third of the way up. Total sq ft is probably 1600' or so. This heater took care of the WHOLE PLACE!! I ran the unit and the ceiling fans in the great room and within about 10-15 minutes or so the entire cabin started getting down right comfortable. When the HVAC system is up and running (heat pump) I'm thrilled to know that the bulk of the initial heating can and will be done with this little gas-sipping heater. It's a great buy and will wind up saving tons of cash on the electric bill. Highly recommend!

5Amazing
By DrX
I bought a two family house, and each house is side by side. Both sides need a lot of work, one has heat and other doesn't, but they are both setup with a gas, forced air heating system. I don't have a whole lot of money right now, so I needed to heat the side of the house with the defunct unit, so after a lot of research, I bought this.

Both houses are identical, about 1200 sq ft each. I setup this unit to run in the kitchen, and have two fans circulating the heat around the first and second floor. This heater is amazing. Now that winter has arrived, this heater has no problem in heating the whole house, sometimes I have to turn it down it gets so hot.

Here's the interesting thing. Since both houses are identical in size and layout, one has the normal forced air heating systems and the other has this unit. With both thermostats set to the same temperatures, this unit is actually cheaper to heat the whole house. One bill was $75, while the ot her bill was around $27. I was shocked.

This model has a thermostat that is adjustable to any temperature. The other review talks about a low-medium-high feature, but that's not true, that's for a cheaper model. This actually has a real thermostat.

I've seen something like this at Home Depot for the customer service counter. They had theirs mounted high up near the ceiling with 12 of the infrared panels (just like the five you see in the picture). As far away as it was, when you stand right at the counter, it is screaming hot to stand underneath it. I think it's safe to say that it's proven to be very powerful, and this unit is definitely a work horse.

For a temporary solution, and a money saver, this unit is amazing and well worth the money. I'm glad I did the research and spent the money to get this, especially given my situation and where I live.

4Very nice!
By Dude
Just got this heater so I'll update moe in a couple of weeks.But had it installed and up and running in about an hour.Simple instructions and easy to connect to gas pipe.Got down to 39 degrees overnight which isn't freezing but cold for me in Texas.The reason I bought this model was for the thermostat so I wouldn't be up and down adjusting the heat level and I must say this is just what I was looking for,just set it on level 2 on the control knob and it kicks on and off and keep the house a constant 76 degrees.I haven't bought the legs for it yet so I just used a few bricks to set the heater on until I decide if I want to hang it on the wall or let it sit on the floor.My home is about 1400 square feet and it's warm from one end of the house to the other with this heater.I also use my ceiling fan running backwards to circulate the heat throughout the house and it seems to work really well.So in conclusion I will update this feedback in a few weeks but for now I'm more than happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a really great heater.
