This Infrared Heater works very well in my 1300 sq ft. home. So far it has gotten down to the mid's 30's and I can heat my whole house with this unit and keep it around 74 degrees even the back bedrooms! I don't even use my new heat pump anymore but I still keep it set to 69 degrees. Another reason why this works so well in my home is because 7 months ago I had insulation blown in my attic and 2 years ago I had new windows put in. The insulation made a huge difference in saving money and holding heat longer in the house. I have all tile floors throughout my home. By having tile floors it will make your home colder so by having carpet this unit would work even better. When I put the unit in my living room and turn it on, it only takes about 5-6 minutes (during the day/ set on high) for it to raise the temp by 1 degree. The unit cycles on and off correctly even at night. For me, there is usally a 1 degree difference between the temp reading on my heat pump (thermostate placed in hallway) compared to the infrared heater placed in my living room. I am more than pleased about this unit. I was amazed how small the infrared heater was but yet it heated up a lot of living space.

This infrared heater will heat up to 1500 sq ft. easy as long as you have good insulation in your home. The most compliants that I have heard about this unit is that it will not heat a garage. Duh! Just about all garages doesn't have or very little insulation. So if your home has poor insulation then don't expect much from this unit or any other unit.

I actually bought mine from TigerDirect because the price was $159-179.99 but TD has been selling them like crazy and has been sold out a lot too. I'm happy that I was able to get one before December month started. My family is also looking to buy a infrared heater and I am going to recommend this one to them. Mine works so well that I am thinking about buy another one so that I can control the heat better.

This Infrared Heater needs 15amps to power it. I can plug it into my living room outlet and everything is fine but I plugged the unit into my hallway outlet which it connected to 2 of my bedrooms and the lights dimmed. 1 of those rooms I have my gaming PC/ 2 LCD monitors with my LCD TV, Surround Sound Theater, and PS3 all running the same time. So if your lights dimms then change the unit to a different outlet. Do Not continually run the Infrared Heater off that outlet because you are pulling too many amps and the electrical wiring is heating up and if your breaker doesn't trip then it can catch fire and burn your house down. Run the unit first during the day to make sure everything is fine before you run it at night while you are asleep. This Infrared Heater is very safe to use but you still have to use some common sense with it.

This heater works really well for heating our living room. We found out it is running our electric bill up sky high. It was supposed to be "energy efficient" and lower you heating bills. Well, it has done just the opposite for us. I would not recommend this heater if you are worried about your electric bill.

This heater was great--quiet and quick to heat up, but for no reason that I can tell, it stopped heating (worked fine yesterday, not today--nothing happened to it, it wasn't even moved). It's on, but even at the full-heat setting, it's just warm. (It used to get hot.)

I called the company and found out that Lakewood was bought out by a company that doesn't even know they used to carry this heater. Forget about support--these heaters aren't even listed in their "no longer supported" system files.

They were imported from China for Lakewood. If they are still being made, I wasn't able to find the company that supplies them to the US.

I purchased this heater on October 21 of 2009. When it worked, it worked great. Heated quickly, quietly and effectively. It was used for most of our winter, NOV, DEC, JAN, and FEB. I started using it again this month, Nov 2010. It quit working, it just wouldn't heat up. I discovered what at first looked like just a malfunctioning tip-over switch since the heater would turn on when tilted to an angle, which would usually result in it turning off. Upon closer inspection I noticed a spot near the bottom of the control side, near a label, that appeared to be melting from behind. I made the decision to dismantle the side of the heater to get a look at the wiring. That's when I discovered that the power cord lead to the tip over sensor had failed causing it to overheat. Due to the close quarters the wire had been pressed against the plastic side and as it over heated it began melting the plastic. There was a black charred indentation where the wire had been pressed against the side. I am lucky that the heater failed before a fire could erupt.

THIS PRODUCT IS PERFECT FOR MY HOME.I HAVE A SMALL RANCH HOME WITH LOW CEILINGS. THIS IS THE ONLY ITEM I USE TO HEAT MY HOME. I TOLD MY OIL COMPANY TO GET LOST. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE GOES DOWN TO THE UPPER TEENS AT NIGHT MY HOUSE STAYS ACOMFORTABLE 66 INSIDE. I'M USED TO THIS TEMPERATURE BY NOW. THE LAKKEWOOD EP-2000 HAS INFRARED TECHNOLOGY ALSO ;WHICH WONT DRY OUT YOUR SINUSUS. THIS HEATER WAS ONE GREAT BY IN MY OPINION.

Honeywell YTHX9321R5079 Prestige® 2.0 HD Comfort System Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Love this thermostat.

I have it coupled to Honeywell's Red-Link Gateway (also available on Amazon) which plugs into my interent router. This allows me to adjust the thermostat from my smart phone! Who cares?

Well, I work in a sometimes-chilly office above my garage. I used to have a thermostat set on a timer but it never quite fit my erratic schedule -it would turn on when I had to be at a meeting; it would turn off when I wanted to do some early-morning work. (OK, clearly the problem was with ME, not the old thermostat, but you get the idea).

Now whenever I'm ready to work I can go on my smartphone, say, when I wake up, and by the time I've brushed my teeth and gotten dressed, my work space is already at the right temperature. Yahoo!

Tech support on the phone is good. Gave this four stars instead of five for a minor reason -if you have simple tech questions the Honeywell folks are happy to help. But any question beyond the basics and Honeywell insists that they will only talk to a licensed installer. For all you licensed installers out there I certainly respect your talent and expertise, but the crankier part of me is thinking, "I paid for this thing why can't I ask a question?" For example, to perform certain functions you need a passcode, which is hidden on the unit. (Sorry; if I remembered where it is I would tell you!) My friend is a licensed electrician and so was able to speak their language but I still find it a bit annoying. Of course I think that if you just said, "I'm Joe of Joe's Electrical Service" you'd be fine, still...

This items is sold by Planet Plumbing through Amazon and the Planet Plumbing service was superb. (I ordered the wrong item -entirely my fault -and they did a fantastic job of getting the right one to me fast.)

Honeywell Prestige 2.0 HD is very powerful and easy to install / use / customize. It is capable of controlling commercial HVAC installations, which is also a hint that it is overkill for most simple home installations. Installation instructions are geared toward professional installers (so you need to have a good idea of what you're doing).

The main unit is removable, snapping into a wall mounted frame. The electrical connection between the unit and the wall frame is made by two rows of connector pins. If the unit is not properly aligned when you're inserting it the pins can (will) bend. This is not a good connection method (says one that bent 2 pins). (That's why I've deducted one star).

Love the thermostat and the ability to use my smartphone or tablet to control it from anywhere.

Do NOT love that the gateway required to be able to use the wifi features of the thermostat is not included and not clearly noted that it is required and will cost you another almost $100. Ended up buying the gateway because the wifi and remote access was the entire reason that I bought this thermostat, just disappointed that it wasn't included or clearly marked that it was going to cost even more.

I researched these wireless fireplace remote/thermostats and decided on this one for one major reason. It has the ability to set the swing temperature from the 2 degrees fixed on most down to 1 degree. This means it cuts off after the temperature exceeds 1 degree above setpoint and kicks on when it falls less than 1 degree below setpoint. With 2 degree swings you have to ride through 4 degree swings minimum which, in my opinion, is too much for a gas fireplace you are sitting anywhere near with the degree of radiant heating you get. The installation was as easy as it could be just disconnecting the bayonet connectors of the built in on/off switch and slipping on the built in bayonet connectors on the remote receiver unit. It even has connectors on the back of the remote receiver connections so you can piggyback the built in on/off switch on top of the remote receiver so, should you have the need to use it without remote you can. The build quality seems high and I am completely pleased with my purchase of this unit. It came and was installed in the late summer and I was thankful when our freak Halloween snowfall came this year and left us without power for a day including a cold night where my wireless thermostat kept the house warm without having to burn my entire tank by just leaving it on continuously.

Best SUNBEAM Fan Heater, 1 Touch Electric Thermostat,alci Plug Deals

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this little guy from a store a year ago. I loved it then, and it's still going strong now! The thermostat feature is perfect, because I change my mind on the settings constantly, and would otherwise melt/freeze before snapping out of my work to turn it on/off. Especially at night when I'm sleeping.

My two cats love it, too! It's been safe and fairly quiet, while providing a wonderful amount of heat for my living and bed rooms. I am now shopping for a second one to heat up more spaces more quickly.

I've had mine for 3 years and love it! In that time, my husband has had 3 in his bathroom... the last one just stopped working (a Holmes Bathroom Heater). I told him NOT to go out & buy another & I'd try to order him my Sunbeam 1 Touch. So happy that Amazon carries it!!! I recommend that you buy the Sunbeam 1 Touch Heater if you want a great performing heater that will last and last! But I don't understand WHY it's over $50 at Amazon and Under $30 at Walmart. Went to Walmart's website & got it there instead.

Review of Flat Panel Micathermic Heater With Digital Display And Remote

Customer Ratings:

I have not yet gotten an electric bill after using this heater, but I do like it very much. It is portable, and I can leave it right against a wall and not worry (the wheels keep it 4 or so inches from the drywall) and the room where I do computer work is far from the thermostat for the oil burner, so it tends to be colder than the rooms next to the thermostat. This heater fills the warmth gap nicely. I even use the remote which came with it. As long as it stays connected to the power supply, it retains the last setting I used. When it is unplugged, it reverts to the default settings, so that is something to be watchful for. I have only used it on low; the high seems to have a large draw on the power supply and "high" is the default. It arrived before hurricane Sandy which left my home without power for seven days; a small generator helped us with absolutely necessary power such as keeping the fridge going, and I used this heater along with a small portable propane heater to keep the house bearable.

Cheap Ace Midea Fans Ho-0221 Oil-fill Radiator Heater

Customer Ratings:

I have had one of these great little heaters for two years now. I couldn't tell you how many times I have been thankful of my wife for buying me one.I have a 20'X20' shed out side that I use for crafts that my wife won't let me do inside. Untill I recieved this one I used to buy a new electric heater every season in the colder months just to stay warm while I tinkered around. The only drawback to it is that it will not heat you,or a room up immediately (it usually takes some 10-20 minutes)But it will keep the room warm easily and will not burn out quickly or cause a spark like the little glowing fan heaters. All in due case it is good for what I do.

These oil-filled types are completely silent, and they seem to me to be much safer than ceramic or fan-based heaters. Safe enough for pets to be near, even. Value tip! Wal*Mart just marked this model down from $37 to $35. How can you go wrong for $35? I live alone in a big house, so I can turn the heat down to 60 at night and keep the BR toasty with this unit.

My Pelonis Oil-Filled Radiator Heater, Model HO-0221, just began spewing out hot oil today. It was sitting in the middle of my office, right out in the open, more than 3 feet away from the nearest desk or chair. It was not covered, and was not plugged into an extension cord of any kind. Two of us were working in the room, and thankfully the hot oil did not reach us as it was spitting out of the space heater. It left an extremely unpleasant aftermath, including a mess of oil to clean up all over our carpet and a filing cabinet, and a horrible stench that we're trying to air out.

I, under no circumstances, recommend this product. It is unsafe, and honestly before this incident, wasn't even all that effective in my opinion. Beware, and if you do decide to purchase this, DO NOT leave it unattended!!
