That is, kindly note it is 90% polyester, 10% Egyptian cotton. WTF? I hate that kind of thing.

I got this from another site, hoping it would be light and warm. It is light, and pretty, but it's like two pieces of flannel with thick wires inside. There is nearly nothing to disguise the fact that you're sleeping under a web of wires. Very disappointing, and I'm sending it back. I came here to find another choice.

I've had this Holmes heater for over 5 years. I rely on it during winter months for heating my master bedroom, which measures about 13' x 15'.

As with a lot of heaters, this unit may give off an offensive smell initially If you run it for a few hours in a well ventilated area, the smell should gradually diminish and eventually cease.

The heater has 2 heat settings. Amazingly, it's able to heat up my entire bedroom at the high setting. I don't have the manual anymore, but if my memory serves me, the lower setting is 750 W and the higher setting is 1500 W. The lower setting is ideal for for providing you with localized warmth where you need it most. Although the fan isn't very strong, it does an adequate job of dispersing the heat. In freezing temperatures, it takes the unit anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour to warm up an average-sized room.

The thermostat is somewhat fickle and doesn't regulate the temperature very consistently -that's to be expected from analog thermostats on portable units like this one. I usually leave it on for extended periods anyway, and if it gets too warm, I simply turn it off.

The heater is lightweight and portable, so you can easily take it with you from room to room.

---

The Holmes Compact Ceramic Heater is very well-constructed and durable. It may compact but it's powerful enough to warm up a good-sized room. If you need a portable heater, I'd definitely recommended this one.

[Update 2013-04-28]

The heater finally conked out a couple of months ago. There was a loud pop and a puff of smoke when I turned it on -the unit had shorted out. I've had a good run with it (almost 8 years), so I have no complaints! My next heater will undoubtedly be a Holmes!

I bought this heater from a local hardware store and have been very happy with it even as I unpacked it and found that it was packed with recyclable pressed paper inserts instead of nasty ol' Styrofoam. The heater works wonderfully and even on the lowest setting in my old, drafty house keeps me quite toasty as I work at my desk. I like that it is very small and easily portable and will pack up and store quite nicely in the warmer months. It puts out as much heat as my big ol' "Milk barn" heater and seems to be more stable... tho the milk barn heater will shut off if it tips and this Holmes model will not... which is the only thing I don't particularly like about the unit... but it sits low and quite stable so hopefully that will never be a problem.

Although this heater may be small (about 6 in. wide, 6 in. long, and 7 in. tall), it does the job well. The strongest fan/heat setting gets really hot within seconds, and is great for a small to medium sized room. Sometimes, I even feel that it gets too warm and have to turn it down to the lowest fan setting. For the price, I think it's an excellent heater.

Honest reviews on Holmes HCH4051 Compact Ceramic 1500 Watts Heater with Thermostat

I bought this heater for use at my office (under my desk) because it is usually freezing there. This little heater has saved my life. I no longer have to wear a coat while at work. My coworkers have even asked where I got it because they're freezing too and want to get one.

It has 2 dials: one for selecting fan (with no heat), fan (with heat), and stronger fan (with heat); the other dial is for controlling the temperature. I usually set the first dial on fan with heat, and the temperature dial between the first and second mark (it has 5), and that is more than enough for heating my whole cubicle.

Been using this space heater in my home for about three years, now, and it's a great little product. We use this, primarily, in my family room, which is set lower than the rest of the house and rests on a concrete slab. The room is about 20x14 ft in area, and is on a corner of the house that gets a lot of wind and weather. Consequently, it's always the coldest room in the house. Sure, it has a wood-burning fireplace, but the thing is so old and dirty that we just really don't want to use it. This little space heater is a great substitute, and far less work! Plug this thing in, turn it on, and in about 30 minutes the room is very comfortable. Occasionally I'll sleep down in that room on a couch or in the lazy boy (if my back is hurting), and when I have this heater running, I'm pretty comfortable with just a single fleece blanket over me.

If you're like me and try to save on home heating costs by keeping your thermostat turned down low, this little space heater is a good investment. Sometimes you just would like the bathroom warmed up before a shower or want a single room warmer while you're eating a meal or watching a TV show. A little space heater like this is perfect for heating your small space of occupancy, rather than the whole home.

make sure to cross reference your correct part number . this is an updated part number that replaces many. In my case, it allowed me to replace only the bad part instead of an expensive wiring harness.

I recommend you solder it and use heat shrink tubing to seal it

I've read the other reviews on this unit, and I still picked one up. This isn't a book/batteries/small retail, and when buying it from Amazon, you should really be present at delivery to insure no damage befell your unit in shipping. I was home when this came, and I looked over the box before I let the UPS driver go. It came double boxed with quite a bit of foam and cardboard protecting the fridge, then more cardboard protecting the tower/bottle/regulator/etc inside. After attaching the casters and fully assembling the unit, I waited the recommended 8 hours (really, I waited overnight) before plugging it in. I let it run for another night to be sure it was cooling properly, and then. after I decided everything was fine, I filled the CO2 bottle and purchased my keg. Don't omit this series of steps. If you want a working kegorator, pay attention to the instructions that come with it. It's pretty simple.

***UPDATE***

More than a year later, this kegorator is still going strong. I did have to replace the gas bottle it came with on the 2nd fill, which was pretty disappointing, but with that exception it's still working perfectly.

I was hesitant about purchasing this kegerator because of some of the reviews but decided to buy it anyway. The unit came in scratch and dent free which I was very pleased about. I spent the extra bucks and got the stainless model which looks nice in the man cave. I was a little surprised how small the unit was when I was unpacking it. In the pictures they all look the same but this is not a full size kegerator it is basically a mini-fridge with an over sized door to accomodate a full size keg. This was not an issue for me because I am limited on space and the overall cosmetic appearance of the unit is very nice. I installed the casters to give it more height. The kegerator assembled easily and came with alot of spare gaskets, parts and wrenches which I thought was cool. Do pay attention to the gasket that belongs beneath the tower like the other reviews say because it is not mentioned in the instructions. It comes with a 2.5 pound Co2 tank which is adequate but I will probaly upgrade to a 5 pound. It also came with a nice dual gauge Co2 regulator unlike some reviews said. Some of the reviews said the unit would not get cold enough. Mine seems to stay around 34-36 degrees on the max setting. That seems perfect to me! Some of the reviews talk about the noise. I can say it is a little noisy but just a little more than a regular refrigerator. You get what you pay for in life and this unit has some cheaply made parts here and there but at the end of the day what do you expect from a kegerator? Cold draft beer when you want it and this unit will deliver! Why pay hundreds more? I am very pleased so far. I've only had it for three days and am half way through my first keg of blue moon but no issues so far. I will update if any issues arrive!

great for the money. ok quality.

they have videos on youtube of this and similar units which helped a lot with assembly and others for setting up co2.

Only negetive it is a bit loud for its size, sounds like any other fridge. Like any keg it takes a bit of adjusting with the co2 (which gauges work very well)

***** If the temp does not get cold enough, pop the thermostat off with two screws on the back and adjust the little screw on top clockwise. This adjusts the temp lower. I turned it maybe one full turn which got my beer in the glass at 38 degrees which is perfect for me.******

I bought this product hoping all the negative reviews were wrong...but they werent. The kegerator came dented right out of the box, and no matter what i did, the temperature would not get below 45 degrees! Looks like it could be a nice fridge if they could fix the cooling problem...but buyer beware...this fridge will not deliver cold enough beer! Im now stuck with half a keg of beer thats ruined. The only bright spot is the amazon customer service. They agreed to ship the fridge back no problem and credit my account quickly. Thanks amazon.

I purchased this based on reviews and a few referrals from friends. It's inexpensive, but it's really poorly built.

You can purchase this item and it will fit a full-size ked (barely), but setting it up is pretty tricky if you have never worked with kegs before, and the parts/instructions are not documented well.

DO NOT PUT THE CASTERS ON THE BOTTOM! If you place the casters (wheels) ont he bottom of this unit and then place a full-size keg inside it, The front wheels will buckle. The metal used on the underside of the fridge unit is too thin to support the weight of a full keg. Both my front wheels immediately bent under and buckled toe moment I placed the keg inside the unit.

It does keep stuff cold. Asa a small fridge, this is an OK unit. As a kegerator, it is extremely lacking in quality and workmanship. You get what you pay for.

-I'm using this thing in my shop with a duct system attached to the torpedo and the comfort range I set on this gizmo ain't right on the nut but close. By the time my shop starts to cool down, and it's insulated, just to the point where you cann't work in shirt sleeves, it kicks on. The temp settings vary and the comfort zone is something you'll have to find out for yourself. A little overpriced but ? It Works !!!!!!!

Not exact temp but close enough to keep my garage warm while I work in the winter. I almost returned this when I first bought it because I thought it wasn't working. It works, just keep in mind it's not like your house furnace thermostat. It has a wider temperature range before it kicks on and off. After using it all winter I realized its better this way since it doesn't kick on and off as often.

This is being used with a 60,0000 BTU Ready Heater. I hung the thermostat on the wall. Seems very well made.

Some advice: Use this product for a month or two before writing a review. 3 months ago I would have rated this a 3, now I realize it is perfect for how I use it.

Worked for 2 minutes and then my torpedo heater motor froze the bushings so the unit is now dead. Waiting on a replacement to get back in business.

Part I didn't like is that the manufacturer appears to have abandoned making these with the capillary tubes and is using a cheaper bi-metal thermostat. Not as robust as the older units but should work for years.

Update on 26FEB13:

Thermostat didn't fail, torpedo heater motor failed. Replaced motor on Forced Air Heater and gave this thermostat a whirl again. Very disappointed with the performance of this unit in that there is about 20 degrees between on/off with this thermostatic controller. That said, you bring the environment up to temperature and the heater shuts off correctly but you will be running for your jacket before this unit ever turns back on. Total waste of money and that's too bad because it's a good idea.

The built-in thermostats on some forced air heaters are much more precise than these units.

If your heater doesn't have a built-in thermostat, you will be better served by picking up a cheap thermostat for the house, a double gang box and rolling your own.

Problem for me is that I already threw away the box so I won't be able to return for a refund.

We moved into our new home 1-1/2 years ago and it came with a builder's grade Honeywell thermostat. There is also a fresh air duct leading into the return air grille area. I wanted to cycle the air about 30% of the time but couldn't do it automatically with the original thermostat.

I ordered this Honeywell TH8321 thermostat and had planned on having an electrican install it. When he was out installing ceiling fans in our house, I asked him to install my new thermostat. He wouldn't touch it, mumbling something about that it would require someone to get into the air handler/furnace and change the wiring.

Well, the next day I looked at the installation instructions and discovered it only required 4 wires to hook up, the same as the old one. So, I took the old one off (after turning off the power) and installed the new one. It took no more than a half hour total. The setup instructions were straight forward and very clear to understand. I turned the power back on and WALA (sp?) and it worked and has ever since.

I like everything about this thermostat. The air cycling, humidity indication, current temp setting and current temp, time, day, etc. It's everything I wanted and more. I did buy the outside temp sensor but haven't hooked it up yet. (The electrician wouldn't touch that either)

This is a do-it-yourself project even though the instructions warn you to have it done by a professional.

In contrast to others, I have found this to be an excellent thermostat. It was easy to install myself and has a lot of great features. It automatically adjusts for high humidity by using the air conditioning system. It drops the set temperature lower to bring the humidity more in line with the level set by the user.

The Intelligent Recovery system is also great. It learns how long it takes to heat/cool your house and, instead of simply turning on at the programmed time, reaches the desired temperature at the desired time.

The only downfall is the short backlight cycle, which isn't a problem if you hardwire the unit since it can be set to keep a reduced backlght level all the time. But if you rely on batteries, as I did, the light turns off until the screen is touched and only stays lit for 8 seconds.

That's certainly no reason to pass on this thermostat, which I bought off the popular online auction site (you know which one) for $80, including shipping.

I bought this unit as a replacement for my Chronotherm 7-day programmable thermostat, which worked well until one of the pins connecting it to the baseplate gradually shorted out and did not allow the fan circuit to come on anymore. I was glad to see that Honeywell has greatly beefed up the pins connecting the TH8321 to the baseplate, making them much thicker, making for a more solid (and hopefully long-lasting) connection.

This thermostat is a great product overall I especially like the "circulation" feature, which runs the fan randomly, to help keep a more even temperature in my 1-zone house. My only complaint is that the relays are very loud, and make a noticeable whenever the fan, A/C, or aux heat turn on or off. Seems like a major oversight in an otherwise very well-designed product.

Also I was disappointed to learn that I needed to buy a different external temp sensor than my previous Honeywell thermostat (the resistance must be different), but once purchased it is a nice feature to be able to see the external temperature continuously on the backlit screen.

I am a semi-retired HVAC contractor who has worked as a installation and service technician, owmer of a 10 person HVAC company and an eight year term as a service manager for a HVAC company. I have had some experience in the field.

1) Honeywell makes (markets) the best thermostats that I have had occasion to use.

2) I own one of these thermostats in a winter home in FL and it does a great job in controlling humidity in the summer as it lowers temperature setpoint when humidity goes above a given setpoint. Humidity is a serious problem in FL.

3) Installation and programming is straight forward and intuitive.

I have a Trane heat pump system installed with this thermostat with a propane furnace as auxilary heat. I love the way this thermostat works; it's easy to program and is smartly design. Honeywell is a superb company and generally make robust products. When you have a problem though, be prepared to speak with someone in the third world who's probably never touched or seen the thermostat. This is a pain in the neck when you need help and have to ensure an unending set of questions from someone reading from a prepared list.

Be advised... it's easy to install this thermostat incorrectly; particularly if you have a dual heat system like I do. I went through 3 of these thermostats before I finally figured out what was going on. On the first two I let the heating contractor solve the problem (at great expense); when the 3rd one failed I decided to see what was going on for myself.

The first 2 thermostats failed catastrophically. The 1st one displayed the infamous "EE" symbol when you see that the device is toast. The 2nd one lost it's mind and started displaying gibberish on the display also toast. On #3 I got gibberish again. Calls to Honeywell led me on a long and frustrating ordeal manuevering through call centers, but I finally got back to the U.S. and someone who actually knew something about the thermostat (come on Honeywell... can't you really spend a few extra dollars and make it easier on us?!)

The problem I was experiencing was an incorrectly wired outdoor temperature sensor. On a dual heat system the outdoor temperature sensor is needed to let the thermostat know when to go from heat pump to propane. The Honeywell instructions clearly tell you NOT to wire the temperature sensor into the thermostat wiring, but to run separate shielded wiring from the sensor directly to the thermostat. My installer took the easy path and just hooked the temperature sensor to two extra wires in the thermostat cable to save time. Most of the time you'd get away with this, but in my case the thermostat wire crossed a high voltage wire along it's path. The thermostat displays temperature by sending a tiny current down the line to measure the resistance of the temperature sensor. It's imperative that the temperature sensing circuit be free of any stray voltage. Because my thermostat wire was lying next to house wiring, induced voltage was being fed back to the thermostat. These induced voltages will cause this thermostat to fail over time; it's a sensitive device.

The lesson here is to pay close attention to how you heating and electrical contractors handle wiring like this. Any sort of sensing circuit (in my case the temperature sensor) should be run with shielded cable. The other mistake the heating contractor made was placing the temperature sensor inside the heat pump. These sensors should be mounted in a separate box where they can sense ambient conditions and out of the way of the sun which will obviously cause incorrect readings. I took the sensor out of the heat pump and put it in a vented plastic enclosure. They I ran shielded cable and grounded the shield at both ends. I wired the thermostat the correct way and it now performs flawlessly.

So this is a top notch thermostat from an old reliable company. Make sure it's wired correctly and you won't have to waste time talking to uninformed people overseas!!!

We bought one of these heaters 2 years ago to help keep the oil cost down. They do work great. We run ours 24 hours a day, to keep the rooms at a nice temp. We used this to keep our kitchen and living room warm. We also ran a coal stove in another part of the house, where we added on and didn't have any heat. After running the first one for a year, our electric bill jumped $150 a month. We were ok with this since we weren't using oil. This past fall, we purchased a second one, because we really do like the heaters and they keep it so warm in here. We decided to get rid of the coal stove, and put a heater in that part of the house. We now have 2 heaters running 24 hours a day. We didn't think it would be that much more on the electric bill, UNTIL TODAY. For the past 3 months our electric company has been estimating our bill from last winter, when we only had one heater. We have come to find out, these are costing us almost $350 more a month on top of our regular electric bill. This equates to about $6.00 each, a day to run. We run 2 of them, 24 hours a day @ $12.00 a day. I'm not sure where the manufacturer figured on $1.00 a day to run this heater, but it's a lot more than they say. (this wasn't even a cold winter) The heaters aren't that cheap to run. Don't get me wrong, they are great heaters, but they don't come close the cost of $1.00 a day, so beware before purchasing.

I purchased this unit, installed it under my counter with a few inches all around for ventilation. It took two days to approach temperature and struggles when the room temp is over 75 degrees.

After 14 months the LED failed. I paid $38 for a replacement, which was sent without instructions. Edgestar service said, "I think it might just pop out." It actually is screwed in from behind.

By 15 months, I went to get a both of white wine from the 53 degree side to find it was about 80 degrees. Now neither side cools. Edgestar customer service couldn't guess what was wrong. They suggested, "Try Googling small appliance repair and your ZIP code." I was unable to find anyone familiar with repair of thermoelectric units. I should have suspected something with a cooling unit warranty of only 90 days parts & labor and 12 months parts. Anyone want a room temperature wine storage unit? It is pretty nice looking.

I bought this product largely because it was the most visually appealing (i assumed they all were equally capable of cooling wine) and after about a year of ownership, half of the wine refrigerator broke and no longer cools the wine. It also makes a buzzing sound which is incredibly annoying and probably a fire hazard. I called Edgestar which was completely useless and could offer me no help. They actually had the nerve to tell me to find a local servicer on my own. Since i had no other alternatives, I decided to give it a shot and called 8 of them. Nobody would service an Edgestar product nor do an assessment of the issue so i could get reimbursed from my warranty company...which is another saga. The warranty services company is called Repairmaster. After approx 10 calls in to them, 4 promised call backs from supervisors that never happened i finally gave up and decided to just scrap the wine refrigerator and buy another one (they claim i'm going to receive a payment but as of this date it hasn't happened and i'm not holding my breadth). I'd also yield a note of caution on the website where i bought the product Compact Appliance since they obviously don't check into the products they are willing to sell or select warranty servicing companies that can deliver on a contract. All of these companies are relatively small and will undoubtedly be out of business if this level of product quality and service continue. PLEASE LISTEN TO MY ADVICE AND SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE!!! I WASTED HOURS ON THIS!!! THIS IS THE FIRST REVIEW I'VE EVER WRITTEN IN MY LIFE --THAT IS HOW BAD AN EXPERIENCE IT WAS!!!

We purchased this wine fridge about three years ago and it worked great until just recently. A couple of weeks ago, it started a low grade hissing sound and just today we discovered that one side is not cooling. In fact, it feels very warm on that side. Obviously, we are well beyond our warrantee period so all we can do is try and call the manufacturer to see if there is anything we can do to fix it. We aren't feeling very hopeful. In any case, while it worked for 3 years, we don't believe that is a good return on an investment of $450! Our advice is: if you are going to splurge on a wine fridge, spend a little more money and get a reputable brand that will last longer.

I love my Bionaire space heater. I can't compare it to other heaters, but it has a wide oscillation range, very convenient remote control, and light enough to move from room to room. The heating capacity has been very good, with a nice touch screen LCD panel. There's a handle in the back with makes it very easy to move from room to room. It heats up very quickly and cools down almost immediately as well. The eco-smart setting is nice to conserve energy, while maintaining heat. It's very low noise, so easy to sleep with it on. It also has a timer function, and fan only function.

I loved it so much that I went out and bought another one! Enough said.

I read reviews before buying this and I was concerned that it might break after one week. I bought mine directly from the Lowe's. So whoever heater that broke after a week probably got a defective one. I have this heater for almost 2 months now and it is still running well. I wanted to give it a longer time before leaving a review. It heats up the room quickly. It is quieter than my previous heater. The light is awfully bright as the other reviewers have said. I just tape a cardboard over it and that helps. It has an automatic feature. If you set your heater to 65 degrees, the heater will stay on until it reaches this temperature. You also have the option to set it on "Stay On". I will recommend this to anyone under a budget and wants to sleep at night without having to worry about turning it off in the middle of the night.

Originally, my family bought two of these from Costco somewhere in the $50 range. For over a year, it has performed well, giving consistent warmth to bedrooms and bathrooms.

Some positives:

* Very slim. It's tall, and doesn't take up a lot of space.

* Quiet.

* Comes with a wireless remote. Very useful when you don't want to get up to change the settings or to turn it off.

* LCD screen indicator. A very nice touch.

* Several modes: max heat, eco friendly, and a desired temperature.

* Osculating mode is quiet and moves smoothly.

Drawbacks:

* Max heat settings can use too much electricity. At our house, we don't use the max heat because it usually cuts off our electricity temporarily.

Overall, a solid ceramic heater with some nice features.

Honest reviews on Bionaire Tower Ceramic Heater

These heat so well that I bought another one after I purchased my first. I use two to heat my moderately sized living room (this is a total of 3kwh) instead of running my central heat (15kwh). The cost savings are astronomical at more than $100 per month if you normally use electric heat in a multi-story new construction home.

One broke on me at the very end of the 2010 winter season and I'm just waiting for Bionare to get delivery of a shipment of the same model so they can ship me a new one. They did offer to upgrade me and send me one that they had available, but I really love this unit.

The other one, the fan isn't silent and instead makes a bit of a mechanical noise while it's running, but I haven't called back on that one because it's not too big of a deal.

I would recommend this heater to family and friends for convenience, effectiveness, and cost savings.

I use this heater to heat a 31" Trailer I have up in the Cascade Mountains in Washington state. I use the trailer every weekend year around. Night time tempatures during winter are near zero with teens during the days. This heater will keep the trailer around 60* at night and upper 60's during the day which is comfortable. During spring I just set the thermostat at 70*. It has run all winter without a problem. I liked it so much that i bought another one when the Lasko heater that i used in my bathroom at home crapped out. Both are working like new still. I bought both at Costco for around $40 each and highly recommend them.
