Cheap Comfort Zone CZ446 1300W FAN FORCED OSCILLATEDCERAMIC HEATER

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this heater to put in my bathroom on the counter. It is the perfect size/height and it does put out heat, but it is a noisy little thing. It rattle and shakes, quite annoying. I found I was constantly trying to adjust it to make the rattling stop. I finally put a towel under the heater, maybe not the safest thing to do, but it stopped the noise. Other then that it is a nice heater. LOL!!

Purchased this as addition to help windward side of apartment. Used it several times last year but more often this season. My wife was in our computer room with it on and all of a sudden, there was a bang, with electrical fire. Did not spread but caused a lot of apprehension on our parts. Would not purchase any product from this company again. Re-read their warranty and we did nothing to cause this to happen. .

The first one I bought worked for five minutes then shut down. I returned it for another and it did the same thing. During the five working minutes both of the heaters were super loud with so much vibration, it moved around and almost fell off the counter. Like the other reviewer, I found that a towel under the unit helped the vibration and noise, but it still shut off after five minutes. After sitting idle for 15-20 minutes it would come back on for even less time. I had this problem with both units. Since Comfort Zone is the only brand my local DIY store has, I exchanged it for a different model. It worked great....for about a month. The only conclusion I can draw from this experience is that all Comfort Zone products are poorly made and defective.

I was worried that this unit would not get the job done. Well...just like the Bible says, that time spent worrying was wasted time! We put this little joker in our cabin on the river to help heat it this winter while we were replacing our entire main HVAC system. The cabin has a large great room with ceilings 18-22' high and the bedrooms are off the great room about a third of the way up. Total sq ft is probably 1600' or so. This heater took care of the WHOLE PLACE!! I ran the unit and the ceiling fans in the great room and within about 10-15 minutes or so the entire cabin started getting down right comfortable. When the HVAC system is up and running (heat pump) I'm thrilled to know that the bulk of the initial heating can and will be done with this little gas-sipping heater. It's a great buy and will wind up saving tons of cash on the electric bill. Highly recommend!

I bought a two family house, and each house is side by side. Both sides need a lot of work, one has heat and other doesn't, but they are both setup with a gas, forced air heating system. I don't have a whole lot of money right now, so I needed to heat the side of the house with the defunct unit, so after a lot of research, I bought this.

Both houses are identical, about 1200 sq ft each. I setup this unit to run in the kitchen, and have two fans circulating the heat around the first and second floor. This heater is amazing. Now that winter has arrived, this heater has no problem in heating the whole house, sometimes I have to turn it down it gets so hot.

Here's the interesting thing. Since both houses are identical in size and layout, one has the normal forced air heating systems and the other has this unit. With both thermostats set to the same temperatures, this unit is actually cheaper to heat the whole house. One bill was $75, while the other bill was around $27. I was shocked.

This model has a thermostat that is adjustable to any temperature. The other review talks about a low-medium-high feature, but that's not true, that's for a cheaper model. This actually has a real thermostat.

I've seen something like this at Home Depot for the customer service counter. They had theirs mounted high up near the ceiling with 12 of the infrared panels (just like the five you see in the picture). As far away as it was, when you stand right at the counter, it is screaming hot to stand underneath it. I think it's safe to say that it's proven to be very powerful, and this unit is definitely a work horse.

For a temporary solution, and a money saver, this unit is amazing and well worth the money. I'm glad I did the research and spent the money to get this, especially given my situation and where I live.

Just got this heater so I'll update moe in a couple of weeks.But had it installed and up and running in about an hour.Simple instructions and easy to connect to gas pipe.Got down to 39 degrees overnight which isn't freezing but cold for me in Texas.The reason I bought this model was for the thermostat so I wouldn't be up and down adjusting the heat level and I must say this is just what I was looking for,just set it on level 2 on the control knob and it kicks on and off and keep the house a constant 76 degrees.I haven't bought the legs for it yet so I just used a few bricks to set the heater on until I decide if I want to hang it on the wall or let it sit on the floor.My home is about 1400 square feet and it's warm from one end of the house to the other with this heater.I also use my ceiling fan running backwards to circulate the heat throughout the house and it seems to work really well.So in conclusion I will update this feedback in a few weeks but for now I'm more than happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a really great heater.

Buy Sunbeam Camelot Cuddler Microplush Throw

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $50.40
Sale Price: $45.99
Today's Bonus: 9% Off

The Pros are that the throw is a nice size for one person to get under. I am 5'10" and there is plenty of room. It is also made of nice plush material. It is soft and flexible even with the heating wires running through it. The controls are easy to use and there is a 3 hour cut off timer in case you fall asleep with it on. The cord is a nice length at close to 9 feet long.

The Cons are that I purchased two and one didn't work at all. The second one (that I had given my mom) stopped working within the first month. I offered to return it to Amazon for a refund but my Mom had fallen in love with how comfortable it was and said it was the perfect size. She is going to call Sunbeam for a replacement.

I was planning on purchasing more for Christmas presents when the price dropped back down to the $20 I had orginally purchased them for. I decided not to risk it because I am concerned with the reliability of these. I do not want to buy them early and have their warranty running while they rest in their box.

I am giving them three stars for their comfort and practical size. I am leaving two stars off because they are not as reliable as I had hoped for. I may try to buy them later in the year to see if their quality control has improved. They would make excellent gifts.

UPDATE:

It has been 6 months since I returned the first throws I purchased. I wanted to try it again. The new throw stopped working within the first month. I was disappointed and returned it. I stumbled over another Sunbeam heated throw Sunbeam Royal Elegance Microplush Throw, Eggplant and ordered that one. I purchased the Royal Elegance Microplush Throw for $15.00 from Amazon which is $5.00 cheaper than I purchased the Sunbeam Camelot Cuddler Microplush Throw.

I received the Sunbeam Royal Elegance Microplush Throw, Eggplant and compared it to Sunbeam Camelot Cuddler Microplush Throw, Walnut. The blankets are exactly the same. The controllers are different. The Sunbeam Royal Elegance Microplush Throw, Eggplant controller has the cords coming and going out of the bottom which shortens the overall length of the cord by about 9 inches. The controller fits in my hand better and doesn't slip like the long grey controller of Sunbeam Camelot Cuddler Microplush Throw, Walnut. The big difference is that the Sunbeam Royal Elegance Microplush Throw, Eggplant actually works. I assume the controller was the weak link. If you don't mind loosing about 9 inches of cord length, paying $5 less, having a comfortable controller and having a heated throw that works then I would go with the Sunbeam Royal Elegance Microplush Throw, Eggplant instead of theSunbeam Camelot Cuddler Microplush Throw, Walnut.

Another thing to note is the prices of both throws go up and down through out the year. I have seen them as low as $15 and as high as $55 for the same items.

This heated throw is absolutely perfect for cold Minnesota nights. It is warm and snuggly just as it is, and when it is turned on, it is nothing short of heavenly! I had one of these years ago, but it wasn't nearly as plush or soft as this one is. It isn't intended to be used as a heating pad. It is a warming throw blanket for burrowing in to keep you warm and toasty, lessening the impulse to crank up the furnace. This easily takes the chill out of a winter night with even warmth surrounding you in luxurious, plush, softness. It's one of my favorite things!

This is a nice warm throw .. just right to keep you toasty warm while watching TV or reading the latest Book. The low temp is more then enough to keep you comfortable. The blanket is soft and fluffy.. and the product is washable . It is Long enough to more then cover all your vital parts. and still be able to lay down.

I got this as I live in Florida and after the temps drop to the mid 30's our heat pumps no longer put out HEAT and it gets mighty cold without any warm heat. This is just right.. I don't' have to heat a huge house just to keep me warm. A nice savings for me and my electric bill for sure.

It has a 3 hr timer so you won't over cook your self.. and as I said the low temp is more then enough to keep you very comfortable.

Pleased and WARM.¢¾!¢¾.

Discount Lasko 33" Touch Control Ceramic Tower Heater with Remote Control

Customer Ratings:

SAMS has a couple of these towers available, one being the Lasko, the other a Delonghi (which I never heard of). The reviews of the Delonghi are pretty bad, especially the electronics. In my opinion, the simpler the device the better. Howwever, this Lasko has very good reviews, and I also have their tower fans that have lasted for 5 years plus. Also, in these energy sensitive days, where you pay 11 to 12 cents per KWH, these towers consume electric heating at 1.5 KW. That means 18 cents an hour. So, to save energy in the winter, there is absolutely no need to heat the whole house throughout the night, especially if there are only two occupied bedrooms (or less). So, if you set the room thermostat at, say 55 or 60 degrees,and set the house thermostat at, say 50 (or less for you of envigorating character), you can have a comfortable existance. You can thermostatically turn on the main house unit at say, an hour before you get up to unchill the house. Anyhow, this heater will more than pay for itself.

****Update 10-5-11****Unit has died (heating element apparently went out). Now out of warranty since it has been 4 years. On the one had I hate to spend $135+ to get a new one, but on the other hand, once you've had one of these things, it's hard to go back to the traditional coffeemaker. It did make great coffee for 4 years, and I loved having my coffee ready in just a minute or two. Despite the fact that I would have liked to get more than 4 years out of my original purchase, I will probably buy another one.

****Update 2-27-09****

My coffee maker developed a leak. I dusted off my original paperwork, and was very happy to see that this unit comes with a 3 year warranty. I sent it back to Bunn, and they sent me a brand new unit. Painless and relatively quick (less than a week). Yet another reason to buy a Bunn. The only thing I would mention is that I had to pay to have the old unit shipped back to them. Cost me $13 UPS, so it's not really that big a deal, but I just have this old fashioned notion that if something is covered by warranty, it shouldn't cost the consumer a penny to get it fixed or replaced.

****Original Review****

I don't see why anyone would buy a traditional glass carafe coffeemaker. The heating element scorches the coffee after about 15-20 minutes, so if you haven't finished the pot by then, you end throwing the rest away. At least I used to, until I discovered thermal carafes years ago.

I really like this coffeemaker. I am a big coffee drinker, and I usually make 1 pot in the morning, 1 pot in the afternoon, and 1 pot at night. The quality of the coffee that it brews is excellent, and I like the fact that the coffee is ready in 3 minutes.

A few other observations:

-I have not had any problem with the carafe. No spills or dribbles, and it keeps the coffee piping hot for a good 90 minutes, and then drinkably hot for another 2 hours. I especially like the fact that you don't need to open and close the lid to pour the coffee. The lids stays in the closed position while the coffee is brewing and it stays in the closed position when you pour it from the carafe.

-I have not had any problem with the basket overflowing or grinds in my coffee, but I have noticed that the grinds rise up to the tippy top of the filter, and I use Bunn filters which are a little taller than most. Although I have not had a problem myself, I can see where someone who likes an extra strong brew and adds a little more coffee might have an issue. For me it works, and I use about 10 tablespoons of coffee per full pot.

-I don't particularly like the automatic feature that starts the brewing cycle as soon as you close the lid to the water chamber. I would prefer to have a button to press, but its not a huge deal for me. Like another reviewer, I can see potential disaster if I have company or overnight guests and they want to make the coffee, and I haven't briefed them on how the machine works.

-Price is high when compared to the Mr. Coffee type machines with glass carafes, but I really do notice a difference in the taste of the coffee when I visit friends and they break out their $30 coffee maker after dinner. I think the price is a fair price for what you get, and although I haven't had it long enough to comment on its durability, Bunn typically makes products that stand up over time.

-The entire machine does have a rather large footprint, and it is bit taller than many coffeemakers. I have alot of counter space and my cabinets are high, so its not an issue for me, but do yourself a favor and take 30 seconds to measure the space where you intend to put the machine to make sure it will fit nicely.

Overall, if you're into good coffee, and you're willing to spend the money, and you're willing to overlook a few very minor flaws (see above) I would highly recommend this machine.

I bought this brewer in October. At first I was very happy with it. Then the carafe started leaking so bad it was ridiculous. I called Bunn a couple of days ago and the lady told me to wash the spout and the seal around the rim with Dawn dishwashing soap (she specifically said Dawn which I happened to have on hand) and the carafe would perform much better. She said that after a number of uses the oil from the coffee keeps the seal from sealing well. I hung up fully expecting to call her back in a few minutes. I washed the carafe as she suggested and it works like new again... no leaks!! If you have this pot, try it, you'll be amazed at the difference. Now I love this brewer again!

We purchased this to replace an aging Mr. Coffee. The Mr. Coffee was programmable, which was nice when I remembered, but when I didn't it could take nearly 20 minutes to brew a pot. That is a long wait in the morning. We considered this or the Braun programmable, which appeared to be rated well, but I couldn't determine how long it took to brew. I knew I wanted speed.

I got speed. This thing is fast. By two and a half minutes its down to waiting on the last drips to come out of the basket. The coffee's flavor is excellent, but a little weaker than I like. I upped the amount of coffee to the recommended tbsp per cup (which would yield very bitter coffee on other machines I've had) and its back to where I like it. A darker roasted coffee would also add a lot of strength. I enjoy the fact that the coffee doesn't sit on a burner and cook too. The carafe has done a great job of keeping the coffee hot for hours at a time. I've had no real trouble about the carafe dripping.. this may be because the Mr. Coffee trained me to go slower to avoid such drips.

Another point: I checked and the Bunn filters ARE taller than my others. The coffee grinds do get pretty high on the filter, so I can imagine that getting off-brand filters would get you grinds in your coffee. Just buy the Bunn filters at your local megamart. They're not that expensive. Also, decaf and/or finely ground coffee does sometimes overflow the filter anyway. The manual mentions this and offers a free replacement sprayhead to improve this. We don't drink a huge amount of decaf, so I don't think we'll ask for it.

I've tried some premium coffees again, and am happy to report that they are worth it now. A good coffeemaker does make a difference in the quality of the coffee.

Pros: Very fast. Coffee tastes very good. No burning the coffee on the carafe warmer. Keeps the coffee hot. Did I mention fast?

Cons: Coffee seems a tad weak. Very finely ground coffee, and decaf, sometimes overflow the filter a bit. I wish it had a button to press to brew instead of closing the top.. I foresee a big mess if company is up before me (It starts pouring coffee out the basket as soon as you close the lid, you HAVE to have the carafe in place).

Would I have been happy with the Braun? Probably. But I bet its not as fast, and after years of inadequate coffeemakers, I'm happy to have one this quick, and making coffee this good.

Honest reviews on BUNN BT Velocity Brew 10-Cup Thermal Carafe Home Coffee Brewer

We received this coffeemaker as an upgrade when our last Bunn was recalled due to a manufacturing defect. (NB: Bunn has excellent customer service and is conscientious about recall notifications, and I recommend the company highly. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this product.) We have been fans of Bunn coffeemakers for years; our first home machine provided us with at least 14,000 pots of fresh, hot coffee before it succumbed to the ravages of time and Minnesota's hard water. We tried very hard to like this model, but ultimately its flaws outweighed its benefits, and we are now shopping for a new coffee maker. The flaws include:

An incredibly drippy carafe. There does not seem to be any way to predict when it will drip or in which direction. Sometimes only a few drops fall from the carafe; sometimes, it spills 1/4 to 1/2 cup of coffee across the countertop.

The internal assembly (which Bunn fans will know is cleaned with a tightly coiled metal reaming spring) is much more difficult to clean in this unit than in our past ones.

This model also seems far less forgiving of our hard water than previous ones and requires cleaning much more frequently. We've had trouble with calcium buildup even with softened water in both the brewer and the lid of the carafe. This and the completely opaque carafe (in combination with our increasing age and forgetfulness) have led to some huge messes in the kitchen, with coffee running over and even into the cabinets below the coffee maker.

Like most thermal carafes, this one does not keep the coffee warm enough for us, and we go through coffee very quickly. I don't see this working at all for most people.

On the brighter side, you will have a fast cup of coffee most of the time, and you will be doing business with a company that deserves its good reputation. If you ask me, though, I'd suggest you buy the model without the thermal carafe unless you own stock in a paper towel company.

This brewer surprised me a little when I received it. First of all, it is fairly difficult to figure out because it holds two pots of water at a time. For most of us, this is a strange concept. However, it works well because one pot's worth of water stays hot all the time and the other that you pour in, replenishes the hot water in the lower chamber. It seems like a waste of enrgy to me so I put it on a timer to keep it from sitting there at 170 degrees or so all the time.

It brews a great pot of coffee at the proper temperature unlike many thermal carafe units.

All in all a great unit. But if you don't do well at programming VCRs than this isn't the unit for you. This is unit is probably geared more toward commercial or constant use. It brews a pot of coffee FAST as in three minutes because the water is already hot.

The carafe itself is very well made if not a bit tricky at first. You use your thumb to push the top part of the handle counterclockwise while holding the handle in your hand to get the top started so you can open it. Again, a little counter intuitive at first but very well made.

I like the Bunn better than any coffee maker I have owned, ever, but be prepared to have to give multiple lessons on its use to other family members.

(a common complaint I read in other heater evaluations) and the thermostat works pretty well. It is encased in a nice heat resistant enamael painted metal case and the handles do not get hot. It sits up on rubber "feet" so you do not have to worry about setting fire to whatever it sits on. I fell like I got a good value with this unit.

One of our best purchases. Looking for a good heater? Buy this one.
