It's absolutely great looking: hip, sharp and whimsical. Everyone in my architecture firm wanted one when it was delivered. But I bought it for a room in my home with a fireplace but without central heat. Sadly, it's much, much less powerful than the much less attractive ceramic heater I bought at Costco for 1/3 the price. It also off-gases really toxic-smelling fumes for several hours after you turn it on, so be prepared to put in a very well-ventilated place to begin with. (I had to plug it in outdoors.)
It still deserves rave reviews for its looks, but I'm swapping out the ugly black electric cord it came with for a white one...

Looks good from 3 feet away. As you move closer, the metal-colored plastic detracts from the appearance.Bizarre controls. I can't believe I needed to read the instructions for a device this basic.
While the heating element turns on consistently, the fan is less reliable. I can tell when this happens by the terrible smell it emits, at which point I run over and unplug it.
Best Deals on MAX Fan Heater - White
Paid a premium for its looks but as most things pretty, this one fails to deliver ! Construction quality looked cheap for the price. Even with the heat control set to the highest setting and the thermostat control set to Max , the heater barely moved the temperature in our living room (about 150 sqft) with ambient temperatures of around 60* F.This thing could rock in Texas or Florida but would be little more than an ornamental decoration in most of the Mid-West.
Needless to say this thing is on its way back to the store !
Honest reviews on MAX Fan Heater - White
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This review was written by my wifeThe little MAX Fan Heater is a very cute and modern looking gadget. I think the retail price of $100 is too high because it is really just useful as a personal fan or heater-its not powerful enough to heat or cool even a small room.
However-if you have any menopausal co-workers (I can say this because I qualify!)-this would be perfect for their cubicle when they are fighting the constant " its too hot, too cold syndrome"!
One more drawback to this product is that it gives off a powerful odor when first used as a heater. I haven't had it long enough to determine if the smell dissipates over time.
