Difference between F232025 and F273400
By Arthur Bradley
There are currently two seemingly identical models listed on Amazon, the F232025 and the F273400. I contacted the manufacturer and verifed that the F232025 is the newest version. The F273400 was manufactured through 2008. For this reason, I'd recommend purchasing the F232025. It's also cheaper.

Please be kind enough to indicate if reviews are helpful.

Good heater
By J. Lindell
Bought a heater to keep us warm while buddies and I ice fish while the lakes are frozen here in Colorado. I was torn between this Buddy heater and the bigger model, the Big Buddy heater, but decided this smaller one would work fine. It does the job nicely, when we are in our ice fishing tent we turn it on and it heats it up nicely. The only thing I wish this model had was a fan blower like the bigger model has, because most of the heat it produces goes straight up. It might be worth it just to buy the bigger model so you can have the fan blow the hot air on you. This thing does produce some serious heat though, if you put your hands too close to it they will start to burn after a few seconds.

I also bought a Mac Coupler to go along with this heater, this lets you refill the 1LB propane bottles from your 20LB gas grill propane bottle so you won't have to throw the 1LB propane bottles away. I would suggest for anybody that uses the 1LB propane bottles to bu y a Mac Coupler, just search for it on amazon and read the reviews for it. It will save you alot of money!

Some other reviewer from Colorado on here said this does not work that great at high altitudes, but I live in Colorado as well, and I have used this heater at several lakes ice fishing including Antero Reservoir (8900 ft. altitude) and 11 Mile Reservoir (8600 ft. altitude) and the heater has worked fine. I guess it just doesn't work at the really super high altitudes like 10,000 ft. and above.

Mr. Heater Buddy Rocks.
By Ross D. Spatz
We used it camping in a tent and it kept the tent in the 60's while it was in the 30's outside! My wife will never complain about camping again.
