I had a little heater fan from DeLonghi (DFH132), and it was fine but a little weak. I tried out a few heater fans from Honeywell (HFH5555 [worked, but blew a fuse] and HEH8001-U [worked but more fan than heater]) but ended up returning them.
This little heater puts out a good bit of heat. It's sitting behind me right now, in the same spot the heater fan used to occupy, and it puts out much more heat. It's also about twice as loud, but that doesn't bother me. The grille on the front gets hot, but I haven't left my hand on it long enough to see if it will burn me. I can make only so many sacrifices for Amazon reviews...
Quite happy with this item.
We bought 20 of these... January 9, 2007

We are an HVAC contractor in Northern Virginia. We stock up on these every year to loan to customers without heat because they are safe and reliable. We have been very satisifed with the performance.
Lots of heat for a little cash October 9, 2008

My wife and I bought 2 of these to give our utility budget a break this winter.
This heater puts out alot of heat. The On/Off/Heat Settings switch, along with the Thermostat switch, feel very solid for a ceramic heater this inexpensive. It has a handle so it's easily transportable. Power light goes off when the unit is turned off (unlike others in this price range). Can be turned off (Some other similarly priced heaters need to have you pull the plug for the heater to go off). If it gets too hot, it will shut itself off (Safety feature). It's not whisper quiet but it is certainly not overly loud, as some others have complained. It also has an anti-freeze setting, if that is why you need it.
For the money, I can't see how you can get a better deal on a ceramic heater. I checked out all the similarly priced ceramic heaters here on Amazon, and quite frankly the combination of features, efficient ceramic heating element, solid design and inexpensive price make this a "no-brainer" as far as inexpensive ceramic heaters go. Get 2 and give the gift of ceramic heating efficiency this Christmas. OOPS, politically incorrect. TOO BAD!!!
Small, effective, inexpensive and energy efficient November 22, 2006

I have a fairly small bedroom (8' x 14') in the city in a 2 bedroom apartment. My roommate and I decided to get heaters for our bedrooms for this winter to try to save some money on our gas bill. At first I was suspicious about this small heater's ability to heat my room. My room feels really toasty right now. I am thankful that I gave this a shot. Although I havent received my electric bill yet to compare to our gas bills, I am almost for certain that we saved a bunch of money.
The cool thing about this unit is that there is one knob that controls 2 heat power settings (hi and low) and 1 cool setting. the other knob has the ability to control the strength of heat (cool to hot). I tried the cool setting, it's not as powerful as an AC, but it cools better than a fan.
Very worth the price February 20, 2007

I was going through reviews and the complainer who said it was too noisy is quite pathetic, relative to street noise and other noises outside living in a soundproof underground basement - like this other reviewer, is actually offset by the neglible hum this unit makes. I find it particular useful when you have a roommmate who likes to watch tv to 2am, this unit actually is a godsend. So this keeps me warm and helps me sleep. 5 Stars!!!!
