Have now used blanket for several weeks and found that it performs well. Called manufacturer and was told that the internal wiring of their various models of electric blankets are the same. The difference is the control and covering. Microplush is said to be and appears to be a durable covering. The controller is simple on this particular model and the reason for the low price compared to other models from Sunbeam. The controller does not have a pre-heat feature. Warranty is 5 years so having the old rotary mechanical type controller is no problem for me give the considerable amount of money saved.

DO NOT BUY THIS. I bought one for my mother for Christmas. The deep red colored blanket shed like crazy and damaged her existing sheets. She said it was such a hassle. Now I am returning it and not only do I have to pay for shipping but for a 15% restocking fee. So not worth it. Buy a different blanket and definitely do not buy from DealYard.com.

Very soft blanket but could be a lot thicker. Its really thin fabric but it does work well. They don't make things the way they used to.

I was very disappointed in this blanket, first of all it is extremely heavy, and it has no control for off while it is plugged into the

outlet. The wires can be felt through the blanket. I am sorry I purchased it.

When we recieved it it would not heat and at first we thought we just wanted it repaired but then decided against it. Have been dealing with too many people "DealYard" says they have to have the blanket, the mailback form came from Jarden and I bought it thru the Amazon website. I want a refund. I already mailed the blanket to Jarden.

A lot of research went into choosing this dehydrator. While I like the look better of some of the square, black models on the market, the functionality of this machine won out. I liked that the heating element is on top, so if there are any drippings I don't have to worry about it leaking into the motor. There is a fan that evenly distributes the heat to make it faster and more efficient. It is also extremely easy to clean. All of the layer come apart and can simply be wiped down. The thermostat and timing features are easy to operate and read and it comes with a great instruction manual that helps you determine the heat and time setting of a wide variety of foods. Finally, I liked that additional trays can be purchased and up to 20 trays used at a time. I purchase large quantities of fruit when it is in season, and can now process it quickly. I sat on the sidelines for a long time looking at dehydrators but when I finally jumped in I'm glad I chose brains over beauty. I have and would recommend it to anyone considering a dehydrator.

I needed to get a heater because where I live, my roommates keep the house kind of cold, for whatever reason. Anyhow, I purchased mine from Wal-mart because I was looking for something inexpensive to keep jack frost away at night. Well, this did it! I turned on the heater and it was super warm and amazing. I woke up the next morning and I was actually a little hot! I thought the roommates turned the central heat up but when I opened the door it was unbearably cold in the rest of the house. I would recommend this for anyone who needs to warm one semi-large room. This may not work for a large room like, say, the living room. It works for a bedroom just fine. One great feature to this heater is that if it falls the heater cuts off because it is not sitting upright, meaning that is diminishing the threats of fire. Purchase, you won't be sorry!

I bought my first one about 4 years ago, and it had always worked well. Sadly, this year I had to replace it. The thermostat no longer allowed it to run more than 5 minutes before shutting down.

It was nice to see what appears to be the same Heater, still available, with same features and an even more modern look. I bought it immediately.

However, new is not always better. This new model does not heat up as quick. It also does not get a mid sized room as toasty as the one I had before, tho it still consumes the same 1500 watts.

PROS:

Heats a small to medium area eventually.

Apparently a safe product.

CONS:

Disappointed it did not work as well as its earlier version.

Heat blowing out from it's 360 degree fan coverage should give results better than it does.

Bottom Line: A nice heater that could be better.

I've had this space heater since the beginning of winter and have used it in the bathroom to warm it up before I shower and next to me while I'm on the computer. The last time I used it I noticed a burning smell and discovered to my dismay that the heater was melting in on itself. The plastic housing was too hot to touch and was warped. I immediately unplugged it and carefully carried it outside because of the noxious-smelling fumes emanating from it. When contacted, Honeywell stated that they'd be glad to replace our heater, if we paid for shipping and a "fee." In other words, buy another heater to replace the faulty one. Avoid Honeywell!

I bought one the winter of 2011. It was a warm winter and it was rarely used. When it was on, it heated well, but the little heat it dispersed could not be felt from too far away. It worked well in conjunction with the furnace being on. After about 20 uses it went into a storage room. This fall, i took it out and turned it on. Only the fan was working, the elements in it were not heating up, even on the highest settings. I bought a new one and returned the old one. This new one has worked fine all winter so far. It heats the same as the old one. My son likes to sit over it at his feet while he's on the edge of the recliner with a blanket and it warms him up well. It has a built in thermostat that shuts it off if it detects the heat is beyond a certain temp, and it automatically shuts down if tipped over. These are nice features of this inexpensive product. If my first didn't die after only a small number of uses, i would give it a 5 star review for the price. Because it can die after so few uses, it may not be worth it. I would highly recommend buying it someplace that's close and easy to replace in case it does quit.

I bought this and it works GREAT! It takes cold air and forces it through a fan up and out the top of it in a 360 degree area where ever you sit it. Its best to use it on the floor since cold air is dence and always on the floor etcetera. When it heats up a room it really heats up a room when my furnice went out it kept my pipes warm as well as the basement til it was fixed, I purchased another one for the second floor which worked great it kept everything comfy another thing I like about it is that the plug doesn't heat up like on most heaters even when you switch it onto the hotter heat setting it's still warm to the touch and your plug outlet isn't blazing hot all n all it's a great buy there's also a larger version of it which has really nice features and does just as well but in a bigger version this is the best portable heater I've ever purchased..

I replaced the defrost thermostat in my refrigerator with this part along with a new defrost timer. I really do not know for sure which old part was bad but the fridge works perfectly now. This thermostat is a perfect replacement fit. The only thing I would do different next time is to use my own shrink tubing since the ones provided with the thermostat are too rigid and do not shrink completely around the supplied crimp connectors, which could allow moisture into the connection. But I am happy with the product itself and especially the good price.

After going through a process of elimination to find the culprit that was causing my refrigerator problems, I came to the conclusion that I either needed a defrost thermostat or a defrost timer. I decided to purchase both from Amazon for less than $30 total even though I was 90% certain it was this item (defrost thermostat). Anyways, the installation was easy with the help of my refrigerator's parts diagram I found on the web.

I saved literally hundreds fixing my 5 year old Frigidaire myself and it should be good-to-go for at least another 5 more years! I'll keep it at 'medium' temperature instead of super cold and hopefully it will not die out so quickly this time around.

Q-Mark MLY 5KW 240V UNIT HEATER *, HUH524TA Review

Customer Ratings:

208/240v Electric Heater

Step 1: I wanted to work comfortably in an attached 22 x 22 (9 foot high drywalled ceiling) garage in the winter. Figuring I'd need lots of heat, I bought a portable 40,000 btu propane heater. It exhausts lots of carbon monoxide, so you have to partially open a door or window to the outside to let [cold] fresh air in -which seriously lowers heater efficiency. The heater warmed the garage, but the approach wasn't satisfactory -i.e., the fumes were so bad, I stopped using it. It was also very loud, like the hissing of escaping air from a large air boat; plus, when the propane tank ran out, the heater stopped; each time you needed heat, you had to drag it out, connect it to the tank, leave plenty of floor space around this self-contained-blowtorch; put it all away when you were done; and of course find a place to store it. Also, there was no thermostat. All in all, a royal pain in the keister. (Google search on: "propane heater carbon monoxide" to read about the serious risk of carbon monoxide from propane heaters.)

Step 2: I bought one of these electric heaters. It has only half the btu's of the propane unit, but there is no need to open a window or door for ventilation. It also has a thermostat, so you can set it (to a number, not a temperature), and come back 30 minutes later and be in relative comfort. On days in the low 30s, it will keep the garage in the 60s, which is fine for working.. (My attached garage ceiling and 2 walls are insulated.) My heater is mounted high up on a wall, but it can also be mounted to hang from the ceiling, as long as the clearances laid out in the instructions, are followed. In any case, once mounted, it is out of the way, and always ready. There's nothing to haul out or set up when you need heat -just turn it on. When done, just turn it off. This heater needs a dedicated 30-amp 220-volt circuit. You wouldn't want to use this every day, due to electricity costs, but for occasional use, it is perfect.

My advice is to skip step 1.

Note: As of this writing, Amazon sells this heater under several names:

Fahrenheat Ceiling-Mount Automatic 5000 Watt Electric Heater, Model# FUH5-4

Fahrenheat/Marley FUH54 Suspended Electric Heater

Dayton G73 Electric Garage Heater

These are all the same heater; it is manufactured by Marley Engineered Products of Bennettsville, South Carolina.

I purchased it for my mom who is diabetic and sometimes needed to have easier access to OJ and snacks, therefore, I purchased it for her bedroom so that she or my dad would have to run down to get them. They love it, say it keeps things pretty cold, and it fits right in with their furniture. I had never heard of Midea but read the reviews and for the most part, the customers were pretty happy. I am glad I made the purchase because it fits the needs, looks nice, and great price.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I am not a huge fan of electric heaters, but my wife cannot live without them. Problem with them typically is that it is very very warm near the heater, and not so warm away from the heater. Uneven heat distribution actually makes the room less comfortable.

This heater does a better job by allowing you to split the heater into two halves. And yes, that does provide better heat distribution.

But so would having two small heaters spread out across a room. The only thing you save is the outlet.

I am not too keen on the point of it all. Perhaps it is easier to carry than two independent units for some?

It is a good heater though. Both parts are effective heaters in and of themselves.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I unpacked my new heater with much anticipation. The two heaters stacked look more like a speaker and take up less room than the Ambia side-by-side dual heaters that sits on a base. One control on the top heater determines if the top, bottom or both will be running. There is also a thermostat setting which is supposed to allow you to set both the top and bottom independently of each other, especially useful when using them up to 9' apart. This flexibility is perfect for our cold office.

When plugging the heater in you immediately get a thermostat display, which after selecting the auto mode, can be raised or lowered. The display on the thermostat said 77. After selecting auto mode I lowered the thermostat to 70 for each heater. For some reason the display jumps back up to a higher setting apparently what it believes is the current room temperature. The thermostat appears to be off by a number of degrees. The heater seems to work just fine in manual mode, but that means the heater is constantly running.

The book doesn't help with this issue other than to say if it's not coming on, you've already reached that temperature. I can guarantee it's not even close to 77 in here and wouldn't want it to.

I did raise the temperature setting on the thermostat to 75 and both heaters came on for a time. The thermostat display now says 82 and the heater hasn't come back on over a half hour later and it's been rather chilly in here for awhile. I've since raised the thermostat a few degrees and it's still not coming back on.

I'd give the product 5 stars for looks and the ability to use it up to 9' apart if it worked, but with the malfunctioning thermostat this is practically useless for what we need, hence the rating it received.

Amended 10/26. Was able to get a hold of customer service using the phone number on the instructions booklet. The number is listed a number of times throughout the booklet including calling regarding the 3-year warranty. I was told that this is the wrong number to call for the Ambia product line and the guy apologized but said he had no idea what number I should be calling.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This heater stinks. Literally. I guess there's a burn-in period with heaters in plastic housings, because I've returned other heaters for the same reason. It's a bit disconcerting. The fan is also pretty noisy when it's on high, but the offset for that is that this heater brings the room temperature up to comfort level very quickly.

The heater is easy to use, both as a tower and as a "stereo" heat source. It is true that the tower formation does not hold together super securely, but it works for me to be able to separate the heaters without having to give one of them a bear hug. This is a ceramic heater that will never reach the temperature necessary to combust paper, but it is still not safe to leave it on unattended, including overnight (I'm pretty sure that's the same for all space heaters the same warnings came with my oil-filled radiator and my infrared quartz heater).

Honest reviews on Ambia Ach-220 Portable Two Zone Ceramic Tower Heater

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This just arrived, and it didn't take me long to realize it is superior to our other space heaters.

First of all, it's easy to set up right out of the box. Even if you haven't read the instructions although you really should. :)

It's lightweight and easy to carry around. Also, it works fast. I felt heat the SECOND I turned it on.

It has a programmable thermostat. It tells you the current temp. of the room. You select the temp you would LIKE, and it automatically warms the room to that temperature, and then stops running. That feature is going to save us some money on our electric bill. Our other space heaters just run and run until we shut them off.

It's nice that you can separate the two halves of the unit. You can have one unit at your feet and the other near your upper body. Or you can share the heat with another person. The halves fit together easily and neatly.

If I had to pick a negative, I would say that there are a LOT of cords lying around. It sometimes looks messy to see all the wires. But that's a little nit-picky. This is a great space heater with lots of nice features.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The top heating unit does not lock into the base heating unit. When moving the heater from room to room, the top heater tumbled off and cracked against my right hand in an awkward way, giving my fingers a "stubbed" feeling for a little while. This was annoying when it was cool, but I can't imagine this thing falling off if the unit was hot. You'd need a pot holder to put it back into place.

Also, the one I received also seems to have a thermostat glitch. I turned in on in our bedroom last night where it was probably around 67 degrees. Our bedroom has a very high ceiling and is always chilly. The heater was set to 71 and would not kick in. I turned it up and nothing. I'll continue to investigate this issue and update if anything changes.

We have several tower space heaters in our home and this is by far the least useful. If I was purchasing another heater I would get an oscillating fan that has quieter controls. I found the control beeps on this heater to be loud, especially if you're using it at night when kids are asleep nearby.

I installed the receiver of this device in place of the simple wall switch used on my gas fireplace. It works like a charm. Now I can lay in bed and turn the FP on or off, and set a timer for it to go off automatically. I think I am a little spoiled with this new luxury!

It also has an interesting feature that checks to see if the remote is still nearby while the FP is on. If the remote is no longer nearby after half an hour, the FP shuts down for safety's sake. I believe it does this because, in timer mode, the remote has to send the signal to shut it off, and if it is somehow missing, you want it to shut itself off anyway. It also has a manual override on the wall unit receiver, which is also a nice feature.

This Remote works great for a standard built-in fireplace that is offered in most new builder homes. This saves a trip out of bed and has a timer function to make sure that the fireplace is turned off and does not stay on all night.

Great product, easy to install and comes with everything you need to get it working immediately. (ie batteries in box)

The temperature display is interesting, but since most fireplaces in new homes in California are about ambiance and not heat, this works great for me.

What a great idea....

SKYTECH'S remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating appliances. This all battery system operates independently of household current. The system operates on radio frequencies with nondirectional signals. The SYSTEM's operating range is approximately 20 feet range. The system operates on one of 1,048,576 security codes that are programmed into the transmitter at the factory.

Remote has a thermometer which reads the ambient temperature, but is not used for setting the fireplace temperature... No big deal. The really great convenience is being able to set the timer on the fireplace ~ 15 minutes to 3 hours!.. which is really handy.... I can leave the fireplace on, go to sleep knowing that it will automatically shut itself off. Installation was a breeze! The only downside is that the remote and the receiver control box are both battery powered, which means having to change out batteries annually.

Review of Hunter 44760 Multi-Stage Heat Pump Thermostat

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this thermostat because I like the programmable setback features as well as the ability to see how long the system has ran in a given day. However, during the heating season my heat bill almost doubled. I had HVAC techs out 4 times, under warranty thankfully, to check the heat pump and they kept saying it was ok. Finally the last guy who came out determined it was the thermostat. The thermostat will run the heat pump for 15mins (this is preprogrammed and NOT changeable). If it hasn't reached its set point within that time it brings in Aux heat until it reaches its set point. When it's cold you're almost always running on Aux heat. For me that was electric and you can imagine the bills. I have since went with a thermostat that has Adaptive Intelligence (Honeywell) that will only bring in Aux heat when needed based on an internal calculation. The Adapative Intelligence thermostats will also shut off the Aux heat when it gets close enough to the set point that the thermostat knows the heat pump can do the rest. This Hunter thermostat works great for A/C, just not for heat with electric backup (Aux).

I bought this thermostat a couple of weeks ago; it has been working well so far and has plenty of bells and whistles. Installation was fairly straight-forward; the instructions were a bit unclear, but one call to their support staff took care of that problem. This unit seems pricy when compared to other thermostats, but it was the only one that I could find for a multi-state heat pump system. But since I was able to install it myself, and it has been working well since then, I'm not particularly unhappy about the price.

So much for the energy star! We have purchased another...Our heat system had NEVER had its auxillary heat on in its four year life. We've replaced it and returned it.

We had previously installed a regular programmable thermostat for a standard system. Unfortunately we found out two years (too late) later that if you use a regular programmable thermostat with a heat pump system then you never actually use the heat pump in the winter you always run off of emergency heat which uses a ton of electricity and runs up the electric bill big time! We've since installed this unit and it works excellent. There are so many programmable features I don't even know where to start! This is an exceptional unit for the price you won't be dissatisfied!
