Great for small rooms December 29, 2007 Robert (Austin, Texas, United States) 20 out of 21 found this review helpful
If you are looking for a cost-effective way to heat small rooms, the Lasko 758000 Cyclonic Ceramic Heater is a great buy. In order to be succinct, please find the "pros" and "cons" below.
Pros:
* Effective and easy-to-understand controls that allow for automatic settings governed by temperature objectives or heating by high or low output
* An illuminated display (easily viewable from 5-10 yards) that indicates the surrounding room temperature
* Directional control for heat output
* Nice form factor that allows for flexible floor placement in terms of space needed and general aesthetics
Cons:
* At higher temperature settings, the unit generates a little noise. To be fair, however, the sound is similar to and no more imposing that a PC or Printer
All in all, this is a good unit for rooms that central heating does not reach effectively. I would definitely buy another unit should the occasion arise.
Great heater October 12, 2007 Dick S. (Spring Creek, NV.) 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
This is a great heater and works every bit as well as the model it replaced. I am using it to heat an open area including the living room, kitchen, and hallway and it has worked fine when the indoor temperature was at 58 degrees. It takes a while for it to start bring up the temp (30 to 60 minutes) We have not gotten the evere cold yet but I'm guessing that this heater will need to be supplemented by our central heat but should reduce how much of that will be needed. definitely worth the money. Note: I now live outside of Elko, NV where the winter temps can get to -20.
A quality unit November 26, 2007 A-Jay (Northern Michigan) 17 out of 18 found this review helpful
I bought this unit to heat a finished basement. Like everybody, I did the research, read the reviews and weeded through the hundreds of makes, models and different type space heaters. For the money this is a good unit. It does exactly what it advertises and I am a happy camper.
we like it October 28, 2007 M. Lane (ky) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
We have used this heater for two years now we bought it at walmart. we went one day and they were fully stocked, went back the next day to buy one and we ended up with the floor model. I wish someone with a drafty house would review this so I would know whether it works well in that situation as well. we only have to heat three or four hundred square foot and this is our only heater (Kentucky) it works well even with our vaulted ceilings as long as we use the ceiling fans. I like the features it offers and the thermostat, plus you can direct the blower for the heat so you can point it at your body if you are personally cold at the moment. I liked the design it doesn't look like a scarry heater and none of us have ever been able to get burned by it even though the air that comes out is very warm. It does make noise, but is not annoying or loud. Overall it was a great buy for our purposes.
Great Heater OVER A YEAR OLD GOING STRONG November 21, 2008 Jerry N. Layne (Campbellsville, Ky) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
YES IHAVE 3 OF THEM NOW AND IT IS OVER A YEAR NOW AND ALL ARE WORKING GREAT AS OF 3/31/2010. I have just purchased the 3rd heater of this model. The temp works just like they say, and is right on target. Set it at 72 and it kicks off at 74 and starts up at 71. The fan is quiet. As a safty they use and over heat sensor that works to cut the heater off if the air flow is blocked. I would still like to have a tip over switch. I did place my unit on it's face to see what would happen, and it did sut down within 15 sec. Other than the tip over switch that I would like as a back up. I have hunted the internet for hours and not found a better unit. Hope this helps you. If it will last more than a year, that would be very good.
Good luck Jerry
