This wine chiller is great for the price I paid. I like the slim width of the unit, the digital temperature controls, and the interior light is a nice touch (the light is not quite bright enough though).

It seems well made and is very quiet. Nice job Haier!

I ordered the Haier 8-Bottle wine cooler as a test of the Haier brand! With so many brands to choose from, and many negative reviews of most wine coolers, I didn't want to invest in one that I would not be happy with, and the price of this cooler is a steal! After 8 months of experience with the Haier I must say that I'm very satisfied with this wine cooler! I've had zero problems! Even after leaving home for two months this summer, where temps inside my home reached 90 degrees, the cooler worked great! I'm now looking to purchase a larger Haier, 8 bottles is OK, but I'm looking to now move up to 32...!

Our Wine Enthusiast cooler stopped working after less than a year. After some research and shopping around, we bought the Haier 8 bottle cooler for red wine. (We own a much more expensive Cusinart 8 bottle for white wine.) Although it takes a little while to reach the desired temperature, the Haier remains constant and accurate. It is a little noisy but we don't mind since its in the basement. Delivery was prompt and we are happy with this product. Good machine at a great price.

Honest reviews on Haier HVTM08ABS 8-Bottle Wine Cellar with Electronic Controls

The dimensions for this Haier HVTM08ABS are incorrect on the website and on the box.

The actual height is 18", which is almost 2" taller than what is stated on the box (16 1/5") and on the website (also 16 1/5").

The actual width is 9 15/16", which is close enough to 9.9", which is on the box and the website.

The actual depth is 20 3/8", which is about an inch less than the 21.3", which is on the box and the website.

The actual dimensions are: 9-15/16" Wide, 20-3/8" Deep, 18" High.

The dimensions on the Amazon product page are: 9.9 x 16.2 x 21.3 inches. (as of the date of this review)

The dimensions printed on the product box are 9 9/10" Wide, 21 3/10" Deep, 16 1/5" High.

They actually have the wrong dimensions on the box! My cabinets are 17 3/4" above my countertops, so this will not fit.

I purchased this product with one thing in mind, 22 ounce bottles of beer. Most beers are best served in the 50 degree temperature range, and I often found myself overchilling beers in my full size fridge. Frustrated by this, I set out to find a solution.

I wanted a beer fridge, but it appears that most beer fridges are designed with cans in mind. I drink a lot of craft beers, so the majority of my beer comes in 22 ounce bottle form, or just regular 12 ounce bottles. Rarely does a craft beer come in a can. This product satisfied my needs by allowing me to chill 8x 22 ounce bottles with ease.

The price for this product is perfect. I snagged it when Amazon dropped down to $85 for one weekend, and I couldn't be happier about the price paid. I would have gladly paid a little more, if there was additional space for some 12 ounce bottles too, but I know that's asking a bit much.

As for features, the touchscreen temperature gauge is easy to read and use. There is a light inside the unit that can be accessed via the touch screen, however it doesn't really serve much of a purpose. The bottles are so close together that a little LED light shining from above won't do much. The unit itself is quiet and cool. I'd highly recommend this to anyone, beer or wine drinkers alike!

I got this unit right around Christmas for a great price from Amazon. It is multipurpose fuel ready, so instead of paying out the nose for Kerosene, I've been using diesel fuel in it, and it works just beautifully. Great for thawing out cars in the shop or heating up a space enough that you can perform some emergency maintenance in the dead of winter.

My old kerosene heater stopped working and I needed a replacement quickly. I saw this unit on sale for a great price so I decided to wait the extra few days for shipping rather than going to the store the same day. My old heater was 60,000 BTU and I paid $180 12 years ago. I had built a wooden stand for it so I could wheel it around my shop. First, this new unit is the exact size as my old one so it fit in the stand perfectly. Second, this unit is 75,000 BTU and I paid less than my old one. Third, it has an on/off switch and a thermostat, unlike my old one. And fourth, it starts up immediately. My old one took awhile I wasn't always sure if it were going to start or not. I couldn't be more please with it.

I needed a heater and called to rent one. I needed it for three days and found out the rental place charged $32 a day to rent. I was pressed for time because it was Tuesday and I desperately needed one for the up coming weekend. They informed me that they rented on a first come first serve basis, therefore there could be a chance I might not be able to get one anyway. I searched on-line to find one that was affordable and found this one on Amazon. The price of the heater was what it would cost me to rent one for three days. After reading the reviews of how quickly others who ordered one got their heater, I decided to give the company a try. I ordered it that Tuesday, and when Friday afternoon came (2:30 PM when it was time for me to go to work)it wasn't here. I went to work disappointed. When I returned home at 3AM there was a note on my front door informing that the heater was sitting on the side of my house hidden behind the garbage cans. Needless to say, I was over joyed. Not only was I able to complete my project over the weekend, it keep my garage at the temperature I needed for 10 hours straight on one tank of kerosene. I highly recommend this heater, and this company. RIGHT ON TIME!!!

Purchased January 5th, died January 28th. The touch panel illuminates and shows the correct temps, but neither the heat nor the fan turns on. No funny burning smell either. We use it in our 2 yr old's bedroom at night, so about 12 hrs each night for 3 weeks to keep the temp at 73. It hasn't been very cold here, around 60-65 in his small 9'x9' room without the heat on at night. Also, the unit is made in China.

I called Vornado and they're doing the repair for free, shipping included. Hopefully the repaired or replacement heater will be more reliable.

update: After 2 months or so of using the replacement unit, everything is working properly. I would rate customer service 5 stars since they are very friendly, helpful, and in the US.

update 2: the replacement one is broken now less than 1 year later. Heat fires up fine, but no fan. Off to get another replacement from Vornado. Again, customer service is VERY GOOD, 5 stars again. If only their flagship heater could last more than one "winter" here in California, which isn't that cold at all.

This heater is extremely accurate in maintaing the set temp. I have tested it several times against a digital thermometer with memory. With each test, the heater has maintained the set temp. to within .5 degrees, plus or minus of the set temp. These tests have been conducted on 8 hr. time frames.

The remote is very easy to use & is an impt. upgrade, because it allows you to place the sensing device @ any location in the room away from the heater. This gives a much more accurate temp. throughout the room.

The air circulation ability of the vornado heaters is pretty amazing. it really circulates the air throughout the room as advertised. It works slow but effectively.

The heater has been used for probably 48 hrs. of run time. Hopefully, it is durable enough to maintain its current performance over many yrs.

I have two of the vornado VH2 heaters which both failed during the 1st winter of moderate use. I purchased the EH1 heater only after learning that Vornado will pay shipping to return the two VH2 heaters to the factory for free warranty repair & will ship back to me @ no cost. The EH1 also has the free return policy but has a 2 yr. instead of the 1 yr. warranty found on the VH2. Warranty info. that came with the VH2 & EH1 all state that the customer has to pay to ship the product back to the factory and then include $20 for them to ship it back to you. this is basically a worthless warranty and in my call to Vornado, they said that they now pay shipping both ways on all of their heaters.

This heater promises a lot, and is certainly on the pricey side for an electric heater. The remote is non-intuitive, and seems to require several button presses to get the heater to respond. The remote's display shows you the current temperature, but not the temperature that you've set the thermostat to -you have to look on the heater itself to see that. It's also easy to change the heat setting (low, high, fan-only) without realizing it, unless you're looking at the heater's display while you're using the remote. All that said, the heater is quiet, and does a good job of heating the room. The auto-off after a set number of hours is a nice feature.

But here was the real problem for me -the heater failed after one week of use. We stepped out of the room for a few minutes, at a time when the heater was not heating, but was still turned on, and came back to a slight electrical odor in the air. The heater was now off, and pressing the "on" button did nothing. I verified that it was the unit and not a circuit breaker in my house. Fortunately, I can return this item to where I bought it within 30 days for any reason. While I have the option of getting a replacement, I don't think it's worth the risk. The manufacturer has a 2-year warranty, but warranty service requires mailing the unit cross-country at my expense, PLUS a $20 shipping and handling fee to get the unit returned to me. I don't want to get another and have it fail 31 days after I get it, so this one is going back. Too bad, because I really like the concept! But poor implementation and apparently poor reliability (sample of one) kills it for me. Not recommended.

Honest reviews on Vornado TVH600 Whole Room Vortex Heater, Automatic Climate Control

Received my order and plugged it in and it heated the room I had it in within a couple minutes. Works as good as advertised if not better with even heat distribution. Now use it to heat our entire downstairs (living room, kitchen, and dining room) during the day, and the furnace very rarely kicks on. When it does it's for less than half the time it would without the Vornado. The real test will be when we receive our first electric bill with this little powerhouse.

We have had our TVH600 replaced 3 times. The first one lasted about 10 months before the automatic turn-off began to just shut the unit off all the time and eventually it stopped working all together. The second unit, we had for about a week and never worked properly! It tripped off constantly and smelled like it was burning, plus the cord would get really really HOT. The third unit worked for 1 day before the thermostat was reading 68 degrees and it was set to 72 degrees and blowing cold air. The company has been absolutely wonderful about replacing the units, but this particular model is garbage, plain and simple. Vornado is going to send me another model, this time, so hopefully this one works.

I've had one of these little fryer appliances since they first became popular in the seventies. The current model is the second one I've had, being larger than the original model that came out.

For someone not needing to fry enormous amounts at one time, this little machine is ideal. It requires only a very small amount of vegetable oil. I've used it to fry chicken wings, quickly, to do french fries and onion rings, to do other smaller chicken parts, and it works beautifully. There is no thermostat; you just plug it in, wait 10 minutes, and the temp is 375. Having such a small amount of grease, it recovers heat more quickly than an electric skillet.

When you are through, if you plan to reuse the grease you can simply let the machine cool, snap the plastic top on, the put the whole thing in the fridge. I don't fry that often, and when I do, I tend to fry a lot, so usually I just discard the oil. Such a small amount is used (usually no more than 3 cups starting out) that I don't feel bad about discarding the oil.

The sides on this appliance are quite high, and splatter around the machine has never been a problem. I used common sense, though, when I fry, whether it's here or on the stove.

I'm sure the all-enclosed auto-fryers that are out on the market are nice, and if I fried a lot I'd probably get one. However, I only fry once or twice a month, and for that, this little machine is perfect. I'd recommend one to anyone--durable, simple, and does exactly what it's designed for!

After spending more money on 2 faulty deep fryers (Rival is hit-or-miss for quality), I've finally settled on this little beauty.

Pros:

1.) Cheap and simple, a very compact and minimalist package overall. It is nothing more than a steel bucket with a heating element underneath.

2.) Fries at 350 degrees, 25 short of "ideal" but safe for cooking with lard and lower smoke point oil. Try lard if you never have, you can still get it in supermarkets.

3.) Milled steel bucket, cast aluminum base. Inside has a permanent synthetic non-stick surface. Clean up and changing oil is simple.

Cons:

1.) This fryer isn't for families with young children or dumb people. Hot oil is always dangerous to work around and this unit is a STEEL BUCKET FULL OF OIL. The outside is hot. The inside is hot. It's hot.

2.) Doesn't have a lid to stop the occasional spatter.

3.) The bottom and healing element are shielded, but it will still warm up your synthetic countertop. I have mine on an old wooden cutting board to avoid warping the plastic.

I fry things about 1-2 times a week, and I liked my fried things to be very crispy yet not laden with oil. I wanted something that would truly get to a hotter frying temperature, to make my frying quicker and more "healthful"...(healthy frying....is that an oxymoron or what?) Because I don't fry THAT often, I just needed something simple.

I like this fryer because the heat-up time is very quick, and there is much less splatter then if you were frying in a pot. When I fry, I usually do your typical fried foods: fries, onion rings, wontons, etc. I have not tried to do anything else in it yet.

If the oil is fairly clean after I use it, I will put it in the refridgerator, but not keep more than a week. This is a very simple fryer. If you are a more heavy-duty fryer, then you might want to look into a fancier one. The exterior is not cool-touch, and there is no basket. If you only do small batches of things, and don't really fry that much, or even if you do, then this will be a great fryer for you.

Honest reviews on Presto 05420 FryDaddy Deep Fryer

This machine is really easy to use...I fried dough to make funnel cake and donuts, and it was simple. All you have to do is put in your oil, heat it up, and add the dough. The number of things you can fry is endless. My personal favorites are the funnel cake, chicken tenders, and french fries. Depending on what you are making, cooking time can vary from mere minutes to a half hour. Experiment, create your own recipes, it's easy.

One word of advice is to make sure to clean the fryer and change the oil regularly. Nothing is worse than frying with old oil. Keep the fryer very clean! Enjoy!

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Presto 05420 FryDaddy Deep Fryer

This 'review' is actually just a 'heads up' for anyone considering buying an electric fryer that has both the heating element(s) and the thermostat in/under the bottom of the fry pot.

This design relies on the fact that 'hotter' oil rises up and away from the heat source, and up and away from the thermostat. This works very well when the oil is clean and clear.

But you *might* have an issue getting your oil back up to temp after frying a few batches of breaded 'items' (ie: breaded fish or chicken pieces).

Even a relatively thin layer of fried breading crumbs on the bottom of the pot creates an insulating 'blanket'. So when the heating element turns on, the relatively small amount of oil in the blanket heats up quickly, and can't move up thru the crumb layer quickly enough, and the thermostat senses the 'blanket' is up to temp, and shuts the heating element off. The thermostat does a great job of keeping the oil in the crumb blanket at the proper temp, but the main body of oil above the blanket takes a LONG time to get back up to the proper temp (since the thermostat is constantly turning the heating element off). And if the blanket is heavy enough, ambient heat loss will cancel out the small amount of heat escaping the blanket, and the oil will NEVER get up to proper temp!

This can be compensated for by scraping the bottom and stirring the oil between batches, OR by sifting out all the crumbs after every few batches.

But you can avoid the issue by using a fryer with side mounted and/or immersed heating elements.

This thermostat has only 2 contacts in the back.

The thermostat from my Whirlpool dryer has FOUR contacts.

The strange thing is both parts have the EXACT SAME part number....I don't get that.

I ordered this part for a whopping $17 (Amazon Prime) only to find out it has 2 contacts.

Had to return for the 2 contact version.

My understanding is that the extra 2 terminals are for an internal heater withing the thermostat to bias the temperature.

This seems to agree with the Amazon description of the 4-wire part having "internal bias" in the title.

Again the big problem here is that both parts show the exact same part number according to Amazon.

So know which type you are trying to replace before ordering.

My one-star review is not based on the part working or not, but rather on the confusion that identical part numbers is causing.

First of all, this thing is heavy. I hope you have a friend to call to help you get it in the house. I seriously feel bad for the FedEx guy who delivered it.

Second, I really appreciate the effort that went into the packaging. Every edge of the box containing the wood parts was stiffened by a hard length of heavy laminated cardboard. Inside the box, every piece was wrapped in a lightweight shipping fabric to protect the finish, and there was a ton of tight fitting styrofoam holding everything together, with more of the stiffened laminated cardboard protecting the corners of the box from the inside. This box could have shot out of the shipping truck, completed two bounces on the interstate and been run over by a semi and the contents would have been flawless.

Third, I'm really impressed with the materials and the ease of assembly. Nice heavy pieces of actual wood, and those pieces that are made from pressboard are made from the very dense, heavy variety with nice laminate. We purchased the dark espresso finish, and its pretty much black with wood grain showing through, a little darker than we expected, but we are happy with it. Assembly instructions were clear, all necessary hardware was in the box, and it went together very easy with a phillips screwdriver.

Overall I'm very happy with this item, the fireplace looks great for an electric, and the furniture aspect meets exactly what we needed. Would definitely recommend.

This entertainment center is such a great piece of furniture with the electric fireplace. It took approx. 1 hour to assemble, my daughter & her husband put it together & everything worked perfectly. It is a real nice piece of furniture and looks great. The only part that took some time is to take each piece out of the large box 2 pieces were very heavy. Once I put all the pieces in the living room it took little time to put together. I would highly recommend this entertainment center.

I love this fireplace but it was slightly damaged even though it was beautifully packaged. The chip is right in the center front of the unit. That, actually, is quite minor and I expect I can repair it with a bit of shoe polish.

What I wasn't expecting is that it is a bit noisy when the unit is turned on. I might have expected that when the heater is turned on, but it is also a little noisy when just the "mood" light is on for the electric fire.

I haven't used it yet to supplement the heat in our small room.

I also wasn't expecting to assemble it although it was easy enough to do.

Seeing how I had an open 250 wall socket from a old a/c that went bad....i decided to buy this Heater for the back rooms of my old double wide for the upcoming winter.

The last few years I have been using just them standard plug in electric heaters, you know, the $30 dollar ones you see in the stores as winter approaches.

This Heats up great! It's not to loud...way better than any standard 115 volt plug in wall unit. The BTU's on this is almost TRIPLE to any standard heater. This has 13,000 BTU, a standard 115 plug in heater max is 5100 BTU.

For less than $100 it's a great investment!

If you have a 250 20 amp socket, get this! If not, them plug in ones ain't too bad (Radiator kinds).

Bought 2 of these to supplement our pellet stove in our living room.

First of all, please note these are 220 volt, you will probably need to have some electrical work done first. These will not plug into a standard 110v outlet.

We have trouble getting the living room temp up because it is large (15 x 30) with lots of windows (double pane). Also, it is an addition and of the 90 feet of walls, 75 feet are outside walls. The insulation is there, but nothing fancy. Fiberglass between 2x4 studs.

After working all day we do not have a lot of time to relax in the living room. The pellet stove is great for the weekends, but during the week it takes too long heat up the living room. By the time it gets warm, it's time to sleep.

Today the packages were waiting on the doorstep, opened them up and plugged them in. Faint "new heater" smell, not bad. 18 degrees F outside, had to turn the heaters down after about an hour to keep from roasting. I think that qualifies as a success.

Some notes:

They do not have "tip over" protection that will automatically shut them off if tipped.

They do have a small "flip-up" handle on back, to lift them.

They are lighter in color than the picture, without the sticker on front.

They have an orange light that is on whenever they have power. It only goes out if the unit is unplugged. So there is no easy way to see if they are switched "off" from a distance.

They have two controls: a rotary thermostat and a 3-way rocker switch (Low, Off, High)

The fan is the same speed on low or high.

They take 16.7 amps on high.

The instructions are generic, meant to cover every type of heater that TPI makes.

The easy to follow directions will get you up and running in under 40 minutes. Less, if you are an experienced installer.

The best part about the install process is that the thermostat I bought came with pre-printed stickers to put around the wires that you take off of your old thermostat. You take the "R" wire off the "R" terminal, label it, put it aside. When you have them all labeled (5-6 wires) you put them on the new thermostat, which is conveniently labeled like the stickers. A couple screws, three AA batteries, a snap of the cover and you are up and running. It's that easy!

The daily timer set-up was relatively easy, with a nice "Temporary" setting. You can change the temperature during a period (Wake, Leave, Arrive, and Sleep), but the setting cancels when the next program period starts or when you press "Run Program." This is helpful for those of us that forget to turn it back down/up -it just automatically goes back to your original program. Nice feature for when you have guests and kids: they can change the temp up and down, but once they leave it will go back to your settings.

It also has and "Indefinite hold temp" option and a "Vacation" option. The vacation option can be set for a desired number of days (up to 255) and have the house back to your programmed temp right before you return.

I have already felt the improvment over the old dial thermostat I used to have. The digital settings are much more accurate. Plus, I found that this unit turns off the unit but keeps the fan running for about a minute longer, saving you money by utilizing the heat/cool air that you already generated. My last thermostat simply turned the whole thing on and off.

You'll save money with this thermostat.

***UPDATE: I just found out that the batteries last about a year (+/a month). Also, when you replace the batteries you don't have to reprogram the thing! YES! All I had to do was set the time and it saw my old programed settings.

This is helpful for those of us that forget to turn it back down/up -it just automatically goes back to your original program. Nice feature for when you have guests and kids: they can change the temp up and down, but once they leave it will go back to your settings.

It also has and "Indefinite hold temp" option and a "Vacation" option. The vacation option can be set for a desired number of days (up to 255) and have the house back to your programmed temp right before you return.

I have already felt the improvment over the old dial thermostat I used to have. The digital settings are much more accurate. Plus, I found that this unit turns off the unit but keeps the fan running for about a minute longer, saving you money by utilizing the heat/cool air that you already generated. My last thermostat simply turned the whole thing on and off.

You'll save money with this thermostat.

***UPDATE: I just found out that the batteries last about a year (+/a month). Also, when you replace the batteries you don't have to reprogram the thing! YES! All I had to do was set the time and it saw my old programed settings.

Honest reviews on Honeywell T8602D 2018 Chronotherm IV Deluxe Programmable

Honeywell thermostats of this design have pins in the back that fail to connect properly after a couple of battery changes. They will not last.

Save your money and buy something else.

I have two of these and they both lose their memory every time they are touched. Bad connection coupling design.

I purchased this to replace an identical Thermostat. It gets the job done, but sometimes it feels like the temperature is noticeably fluctuating, so not very accurate. But still it's better than the old one.

I needed this item on a small heater and it works great. I hope it lasts longer than the previous one which was just like it.

Easy to install but I could use instruction on the settings within the unit.
