It works ok. Not as easy to override the temp settings as others I have used, but, it works well. The quality control from this company doesn't seem to be very good as the first one I got didn't work. Their customer service had me do a few basic tests on the unit and then said it was defective. Price was the main reason I bought this unit. If the White Rodgers unit I used in other homes was available, I would recommend it over this unit.

It's so cuddly and soft, we just use it for a teddy bear when it's too warm to turn on and then crank it up to keep us toasty when the weather gets nippy. I love the dual controls as I am always warm and my husband requires more heat to be comfortable. There is plenty of cord to easily store the controls in the book case headboard even when blanket is not in use.

This blanket replaced an old single controller unit. I can run the blanket at a much lower aswetting and the auto-off is a great feature.

I don't often write reviews, but this blanket is great. The controls are very good, giving you excellent temperature control of the temperature. The blanket itself is very soft with very little wire feel.

Since this is the only product of its kind that I've used, it's difficult to confidently assert any opinion about it because I have nothing to compare it to-hence the wishy-washy middle of the road rating. Having said that, I'll share that the thermostat did not meet my expectations. I'm just not sure my expectations are reasonable. In replacing a simple on off switch on a gas fireplace, I was hoping to prevent the too hot/too cold cycle that results from my laziness (not wanting to jump up and turn the switch on and off frequently) as well as the wasted money from the occasional forgetting to turn off the fireplace at night. Unfortunately I've found that thermostat does not seem to be very sensitive and rather than turning it off and on within a reasonable temperature range, it stays on (and off) much longer than I would like. If there is a way to adjust the offset, I am unaware of it and do not see it in the instructions. The device is installed only about 3 feet from the fireplace, but it is on an outside wall, which could have something to do with the lack of sensitivity. Because it stays OFF longer than expected also, it's easy to trundle off to bed without realizing it's on....discovered only the next morning upon coming downstairs to a much too warm family room. There goes the savings! The responsibility, of course, remains mine...but so much for my plan!

Bought this to use on our gas fireplace in our mountain home. Earlier this year our furnace quit working due to a plugged vacuum switch allowing our cabin to get below freezing. We ended up with a couple broken valves and pipes. Fortunately we turn the water off when we are not there but had some water damage when we turned the water back on until we could find where the leaks were.

Installed this thermostat for the fireplace as a backup to the furnace. We set this at 45 degrees and the furnace is set at 50 degrees when we leave. So if the furnace goes out again the fireplace will come on at 45 degrees and when the limit-style temperature switch gets hot enough the blower fan will start. Tried it this last weekend and it takes about 15 minutes for the blower to start after the fireplace comes on and about 30 minutes to shutoff after the fireplace is turned off.

This was the perfect answer to a complex issue we were having with our old programmable thermostat. They work great and are not very expensive.

i really like this unit, and it works really well.although i think the pilot flame could be smaller even when adjusted all the way down. just seems like a big waste of fuel. but still a great unit...

Just installed in a 28 x 24 garage with an 8' ceiling (the ceiling is not completely insulated yet). It's a cold windy day (0 degrees wind chill), and this heater is keeping the garage warm enough to work in a flannel shirt. Without the ceiling being finished, much of the heat is obviously escaping right out the roof vents. I do believe that once the ceiling is completed, it will do a fine job in this garage.

Shipped quickly from Amazon with no damage; instructions easy to follow; installation was simple. Called Mr. Heater's Customer Service line with a simple question, and after punching a few buttons to get to the correct department, I actually spoke to a real person who also spoke English. Thermostat wiring could have been a bit longer.

Two points to consider when installing:

One, although overall very light, the heater is quite a bit heavier on one end due to the control valve, making it necessary to put a slight bend in the hanger to make it hang level. The factory could have positioned the mounting point slightly to the left to counter balance the heater, but this is minor and easily corrected.

And two, be patient about letting air bleed from the gas line and getting gas through the control valve when you first light the pilot. My supply line is less than 40' from the tank to the heater, but it took several minutes of holding the gas valve in at the 'Pilot' position to get gas to flow.

I'd recommend one of these to anyone with similar heating needs.

Great little heater, We have an insultated garage and at 30 F outside this week I was comfortable in just a sweatshirt and jeans.

it does take a bit to warm things up but it just enough for the tinkering I do.

My house is a small one, about 800 square feet of space. I live in upstate New York, just east of Lake Ontario, and when it's not snowing off the lake, it's cold, just the same. Winters are usually not mild ones. My house is set to be heated with electric baseboard heat, and I have a Timberline fireplace insert that will heat the whole house should I want to use wood. About six years ago, I bought a 1500 watt Sun Cloud zone heater, which is rated for up to 800 square feet of space. It is thermostat controlled and uses four 375 watt infrared bulbs to provide the heat. The bulbs heat many flagella like tubes through which the heated air is blown and out into the room. It looks much like every other similar heater being sold these days, but the inner shell is metal and the outer shell is wood (oak, cherry or mahogany). What makes this heater so much better than other designs is that you don't have to send it back to the manufacturer for repairs. Anything that might go wrong can easily be fixed locally if necessary. The bulbs can be found at your local electric store, and so can the thermostat or blower. Parts are simple, not complex, and your local handyman can repair it easily! I have been using this heater for all the cold months that I have owned it, and if the outside temperature stays about 30 degrees, the house never gets chilly. Anything below 30 degrees will drop the temp to say 67 degrees, but I just augment the house temp with my baseboard heat and everything is toasty. Since the unit is thermostatically controlled, it cycles on and off as necessary, but even if it ran all night and day, it would only use 1.5 kilowatt/hours of electricity per hour, times 24 hours which equals 36 kilowatt hours of electricity per day! Multiply that by your local electricity rate (say 10 cents per kilowatt hour of usage), and you can readily see that it cannot cost more to use than $3.60 per day! As I said, the thermostat allows it to cycle on and off, so for most people, it will cost less than $3.60 per day to use. I am so happy with my unit that I bought two more units to augment my mother's home, which has more than double the floor space that my home has. She heats with oil and uses from 3 to 5 gallons per day in the winter months. With oil prices soaring, she should save money using Sun Cloud.

I purchased this heater to supplement the heat from my furnace. So far it has been great. I don't know yet how it will effect my gas & electric bill but judging by how infrequently my furnace kicks on it should do wonders for my gas bill. It's quiet, I hardly even notice it's on. Just like they advertise, the outside doesn't get too hot to touch. It looks great in my living room, like just another piece of furniture. I definitely made a good decision buying this.

Bought this to replace a thermostat that had failed. Easy to wire using existing connections and programming is easy as well. No problems at all, and good price on Amazon.
