Pro Breeze Space Heater – 1500W Portable Electric Heater for Indoor Use, Ceramic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat, Small Heater for Home, Bedroom, Office, Garage with 3 Operating Modes - White

This little heater works great we have purchased several. We use them to heat our rv in the winter. Great value for the money. we run ours continuously all winter and they last 2-3 years. I am not sure how much electric they use since winter is always a higher cost in energy for us but the other option is propane and it definitely beats that.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have one and wanted another as a gift

It is a basic simple design that works effectively. Simple, easy to use controls, an effective safety interlock to prevent tipping accidents, and an attractive appearance. You can choose to use it in the fan only mode, or in low or high heat output. We used it to supply supplemental heat to a 130 Sq Ft. bathroom during the winter months and were delighted with it's performance. Initially, it is very quiet, especially on the low fan speed setting. Even at the high speed fan setting it is noticeable but not objectionable, After several years of service it did develop a bearing rattle, but that was not annoying enough to warrent concern. A worthwhile investment, you won't be disappointed.

Good

I will review this in the capacity in which I have used it.So far, I'm using it to keep a ~150 sq. ft. bedroom ~5-8°F warmer than the rest of the house. So far, this unit has been performing well. The tip-over safety is a spring-actuated button that is depressed by the weight of the unit. So if it falls over, the spring releases a switch somewhere and power is immediately cut. On the shelf I have the unit located, this button isn't a problem, but I will admit it makes the unit feel a little more "tippy" than one might expect. It's not very heavy, and the spring makes it feel even less so. This may be fixable by reducing the spring k-factor or centering the button more within the unit, as it's location is biased a bit toward one corner. (Note: manufacturer potential changes; I don't recommend trying to do this yourself). I don't consider this a major detriment, as you shouldn't put a heater on an unstable surface anyway, but be aware that some solid footing underneath is a good idea and keep it out of the way of potential traffic or flying objects. Again, if it does tip, the power cutoff is immediate.The thermostat seems to work well, and was the primary reason I selected this product (along with included safeties). As previously mentioned, it keeps the room it's in at a consistent 5-8°F warmer than the rest of the home when left on the partial power setting. It took some experimenting with the thermostat position, as it doesn't have temperature markings on it, but about 30-35% of full scale is where I have it set. That seems to be ~70°F control temperature for the room size and R-value. It also implies there is a fair amount of margin to run the unit harder than I am.One more thing to note is that it says right on the box, in slightly different words, that this unit is not meant to run a high duty cycle. I don't think it would work well in large rooms or in something like a hunting blind that's very drafty/open to outside. It's meant for relatively small rooms with relatively small heat losses so it doesn't have to run 100% of the time. I haven't tested the over-temperature function yet, and don't really intend to. Generally, relying on the safety limit isn't a good plan anyway.Long story short, for a smaller room that just needs warmed up a bit, this works well. It seems simple and well made, especially for the low price tag. It has some safety features not found on similarly priced models, which is a plus. It's not silent, but it's not obtrusive really either. Overall I'm satisfied with the purchase so far.

I had two for many years. Its quality and performance were as expected based on Amazon seller's description and buyers' reviews. It works quite well. Eventually. one of the two stopped emitting heat; the other started to make a squealing noise, made because something came loose inside. Overall I have been impressed by the product's performance and purchased a replacement. So far, so good. Actually, this newest purchase is much quieter.

Pretty simple ceramic heater. I don't like running the heat in my house. If I get hot or even very warm, I can't sleep. Not a problem until you need to go to the bathroom and it feels like an icebox. We run the heat but before I go to bed, I turn the thermostats down to 68. If it gets colder than that the heat pump(s) come on. Our bathrooms have vents from the heat pump(s) in them but if it doesn't come on all night, the bathrooms are generally 2-4 degrees cooler. We have one of these in 3 different bathrooms. The bathrooms each have a stool for the women to sit on and put makeup on. If it's cold, we sit the heater on the stool, turn it on low about medium intensity and within 5 minutes (with door closed) the bathrooms are warm. I saw a minimal jump in our electric bill. I would guess we use the three for a total of 15 minutes a day. No more than $1 to $2 a month on the electric bill.Of note: These get very warm very fast. The first time I used one, I turned it on and went to the bedroom to get some clothes to put on after my shower. It took maybe 5-7 minutes. The bathroom was downright toasty. These are interesting items because they remind me of the old wall heaters in concept, if you remember those. When I was a kid everybody's house had wall heaters in the bathrooms. These work similar to those without all the corrupt, out of code wiring in the walls. Much nicer than we expected. I'll update if anything stops working. Oh and there is a tip switch for those that sit on them floor and worry about them turning over. The bathrooms are all 240-300 sq. ft and it warms the whole area including the cold sinks. I guess I should have pointed out that these are small but they work better than a bigger one we used to have. Highly recommended.
