Reviews of Black & Decker BDHF200 Heater Fan

Customer Ratings:

I really loved the heater, it was safe around the pets. I was sitting in the room and smelled something burning, picked up the unit and everything looked fine. 20 minutes later the unit shut off. When I unplugged the unit, the plug had melted. From the way that it had melted, it was clear that something was wrong with the plug. I liked the product, but this made me worry. I don't know if I will replace it with the same thing.

So I used to love this heater. It served me well for a little under a year. But just tonight as I was trying to turn it on the plug had a tiny explosion and the reset button melted. I have no idea what caused it but I found it very unnerving. Now looking for a replacement. Not sure if I will replace it with the same model.

I bought this heater to take the chill off some of the cold days we had in Florida this last "winter". I did not need to put on my central heating system to heat the whole house when I am in the living room, this little heater did the job just fine.

This is the worst waffle iron I have ever seen let alone used. There is literally NO isulation between the heating element and the outer metal covering so it gets as hot as the griddle. I can tell you that is VERY HOT as i made the mistake of touching the outside of it and it burned me pretty well. The irons do not fit tightly in the clips and it feels like they are going to come out when you flip it closed. I hate it and I am sending it back.

As soon as this arrived I was sure it would not work very well as it was just too light. The plates are way to thin to provide adequate even heat distribution, plus the heating coils are in the shape of a mushroom, with the front edge 1.25 inches from the coil, while the back corners are 4.25 inches from the heating coil, so by the time the back corners are cooked the front of the waffle is nearly a cracker. Also it takes over 8 minutes to cook one batch of waffles with the setting on the highest it can go. Has anyone else noticed that the manufactures of these kinds of products forgot how to make them sometime around 1980? Back to searching yard sales again for something made before 1975.

Eco Breeze The first intelligent fresh air cooling system designed Review

It has been excessively hot here in Colorado and I do not have central air. It does eventually cool off late in the evening, so I usually get by with opening up my windows in the evening and turning on fans; but; the trick is to be home at the right time and remembering to close up the house in the morning. The Eco Breeze seemed to be the answer. After placing my order, I received a phone call saying that imrovements were being made to the vents in the back and did I want to wait a week for the new and improved model. My answer was "yes" and it arrived in about a week. I immediatly installed the fan on the north side (shady) of my house only to discover that the side "wings" were slightly too short for my window. I emailed the company and asked if I could purchase an additional piece to make it a snug fit. I received an email the very next day saying that the piece would be sent to me free via priority mail. That was the response that I was hoping (but not expecting) to get.

I am very pleased with the Eco Breeze; in fact, I may be in love with it (did I mention how hot it has been?). I cannot speak to the humidity feature, as we do not have humidity in Colorado; but, I can say that it is really great to come home after work to a cool house. It is also great to be able to sleep in on my days off if I want to without having to get up and close up the house before it gets hot. The fan is very quiet, not as noisy as the little duel fan that was in the window before; and I suspect it will prove to be much more energy efficient than an air conditioner would have been. The Eco Breeze seemed to be a bit pricey for a window fan; but, the fact that it I no longer have to be home at the right time and can sleep in if I want to is worth the cost.

The issues with the louvers recirculating air was the only reason I gave the old version of this product 3 stars, as it appears that has been fixed it gets a 5 star review.

It does exactly what it says, kicks on automatically and cools off the house as soon as it is cool enough outside. It is an amazing product, my unit is on its second summer right now and works great. I highly recommend it.

Sure you could do this yourself without this fan. Just stand around measure and wait for the moment outside air be cooler and less humid than indoors and open the window, install a fan turn it on then wait just in case it warms back up so you can close it all up... The Eco Breeze does it all for you the instant it should nothing more nothing less. Besides the fancy control and louvers it is the nicest and quietest window fan I've ever owned. To sum it up it only turns on when outside air is cooler and dryer than inside air then shuts off when it gets down to your set point or outside air can no longer help.

A++

Review of Vornado DVTH Whole Room Vortex Heater, Automatic Climate Control

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $119.99
Sale Price: $104.86
Today's Bonus: 13% Off

I recently moved into a house that had an exceptional heating system except in the master bedroom (probably due to a large French door). Didn't see the logic in heating the whole empty house just to keep one room warm, I started to look for a suitable heater. Upon some search, Vornado DVH surfaced as a viable option. Although pricier than other models, if it did what it claims to do (even warmth, quietness, safe to kids' touch, and good control) I thought the product would be ideal for my family needs.

While searching for the best price, I came to read the ratings by others on the Amazon site, and it was disturbing for me to see that there was a noticeable disparity among the raters (please look through the reviews and see for yourselves-5 to 1 star). But it sounded great at least for those who had them in working condition, so I decided to give it a try, knowing that there is a chance that I might get the bad apple.

Well, I have been using the unit for a while now and I have to tell you that it is worth MORE than its weight in gold!!! It is quite; temperature control is dead accurate; heating is impressively even throughout the room; and it really doesn't get hot at all to the touch; and even looks cool. I have occasional circuit breaker tripping when I use hair drier in the bathroom connected to the same room, but Vornado has not tripped the circuit not even once, even though I usually have it run at 78F when I use it (basically all night).

I'm sure others' claims on defective products are valid. But if you are unsure whether to give it a try because of those reviews like I was a few weeks ago, I strongly recommend you give this product a try. Even if you end up with a defective product like others claim, if you can get a good one after exchange (and get something like what I got), it is worth the trouble-and believe me I'm an extremely lazy person when it comes to product exchanges...

I only write this review because I wished that I had something like this to help my decision making. Hope it helps you.

I live in a basement apartment in Washington DC. The winters here get pretty cold and I do not have control of the heater. The landlord upstairs controls the heat (and they are rarely home).

I plugged this heater into my front room. The room measures 20x25'. The temperature gage intially read 58 degrees! Wow that's cold. I set the digital temperature gage to 72 degrees. It initially took about an hour to reach that temperature (I think the electronics needed to be broken in).

This little heater has been plugged in and running nonstop, 24 hours a day, for the past three weeks and it is nothing short of spectacular!

I positioned the heater at one corner of the apartment and it heats the entire room and keeps every corner of the room at the same temperature.

Since it has a plastic casing, it is constantly cool-to-the-touch and I have no reservation with leaving it on when I leave in the morning to go to work. The unit *never* gets hot.

I thought $100 was a bit expensive for a heater, but wow... this purchase has been justified.

I also have a humidifier (by Bionaire) running on a 24-hour basis to prevent the room from becoming too dry.

The temperature gage on the heater is spectacular. You really can tell the difference between 70 and 72 degrees with this heater.

It's fabulous. Nothing short of fabulous.

The Digital Vortex Heater is wonderful! We have a drafty attic office in our home, which has been impossible to heat. We've gone through at least 3 different heaters (all under $50) with no luck. We decided to try the Vornado Digital because of "how" it heats.

With other heaters, the room never really got warm. As long as you sat or stood directly in front of the electric heater, you were freezing. With the Vornado Digital heater, it warms the entire room by circulating the heat. And believe me, no matter what other says, it works! The only drawback, is it does take (depending on the size of the room, how cold it is outside, and how drafty the room is) some time to heat up the room. For the attic office space we have, it's about a 20' by 20' space. It warms up the room in about 20 mins, depending on how cold it is outside. BUT, once it's warm, it stays warm! The internal thermostat on the Vornado Digital works quite well. We actually have to turn it down or off after a while, because it gets so warm. I have been noticing after a few weeks of use, that it seems to warm up faster. So maybe there was a break-in period it had to go through, I can't be sure. Although, it does seem to work better after a little use.

We tried several different heaters from several different manufacturers, and the Vornado was by far the best at warming a room, and keeping it warm! Is this heater the kind of heater that pumps out direct HOT air? No. If you want a heater that is just going to be pointed at you to keep you warm, this might not be the heater for you. But if you want a heater that will heat up a room and keep it warm, with soothing warm air, there is no other heater better for the price! Again, it's most amazing feature being that is circulates the air throughout the room. Just for the feature alone I am satisfied, because I feel that's the secret to correctly heating a space. The only downfall being, that it takes some time to do it.

My suggestion is to at the very least, try the Vornado Digital. I purchased it from the Vornado website for $100.00, but I suggest going through Amazon to save on shipping. I think you'll be happy you tried it!

Honest reviews on Vornado DVTH Whole Room Vortex Heater, Automatic Climate Control

I recommend this one only. It seems to me that DVTH is an upgrade version of DVH (you can see the product number which is different) and far better than VH2. Current temp. and setting temp. is shown repeatedly with fan speed ('LO', 'HI', and 'FA'n only), and it accurately monitor and warm up the room.

Other heaters stops fan as well as the heating element when the desired temparature is reached; this one doesn't. Fan works continuously (slowly) when the temparature is reached... so that the entire room air is heated up properly. I tried Homles one, and Black and decker one, but they don't have this functionality.

I am pretty sure this fan works well esp. when there is another heat source (like ordanary apartment) but heating is not enough. I am not sure for other cases. But definitely, this guy is well worth the money (I know this is expensive). You can search hard and ask for the best price in a big online company which sells this.

I have owned several different space heaters from different manufacturers over the past 5 years or so, and this is the best by far. Most ceramic heaters generate too much heat in a small area and they get hot enough to start fires. The ceramic heaters I have used have melted parts of my desk or chair, they are a real fire or burn hazard. Even though they have fans inside to blow the heat, the heated air is so hot that it never gets more than a few inches in front of the heater before rising straight up. You are always either freezing cold or in fear of being burned depending on hwo many inches you place it from you. Oil heaters are nice but they have a terrible smell (supposedly this goes away) and they do not have a way to spread the heat at all.

The Vortex heater has a medium sized fan with a small wire heating element behind it. It's very much like the way a hair dryer works to heat air. This heater generates lots of air flow, more like a regular fan, while heating the air. You can place this heater 6 feet away and you will still feel a warm breeze from it.

The vortex heater is VERY quiet, and the front of the heater does not get hot enough to burn you. I also use this heater a quiet personal fan for the summer time. If you set the FAN switch to ON, the heat switch to LOW and the thermostat all the way down, it will blow air but not stop heating it.

The plug and power cord on the heater does not get hot like other heaters, but remember never cover the power cord on any space heater or high-powered appliance because it does still generate some heat.

The heater does a good job of detecting the temperature of the room and will turn off when it reaches the desired temperature setting.

The heater will turn off if tipped over. If the heater is bumped it turns off for a second. However, if you wanted to place this heater on an angled surface it will still work. Whatever the mechanism it has, it allows it to be angled but not tipped over all the way or bumped suddenly. The heater does not have a way to aim it up or down. It is preconfigured to blow at a very slight upward angle.

I have been using this heater to heat my 7 month old son's play area recently. He started crawling and the front of the design on the heater is just barely large enough to allow his tiny little fingers to poke into the front of the heater and get hit by the fan (this has never happened but at the largest part of the gaps in the front of the unit, it would be possible). Other than that, this heater is safer for children because neither the air nor the front of the heater gets hot. I would say that in a few more months his fingers will be too large to poke through. If this heater had the fine wire mesh front like most other heaters, it would be perfect.

The vortex heater is a little more expensive than other heaters, but it is well worth the extra money. I have had this heater for about 2 or more years and it works GREAT!

Hunter 44920 Universal Internet Thermostat, White Reviews

Customer Ratings:

**** UPDATE ****

**** DO NOT PURCHASE ****

**** HUNTER HAS DISCONTINUED THIS THERMOSTAT! ****

**** REMOTE INTERNET SERVICE WILL BE DISCONTINUED AUGUST 1, 2013. ****

(original review)

I have read several mixed reviews about this thermostat, so I would like to add my 2-cents about my experience thus far.

NOTE: unless you wish to use the iPhone app, website/mobile site, don't get this thermostat since it is not programmable from the panel. This is not a flaw, it's a feature. If you don't like that, move on.

INSTALLATION:

Installation was a breeze. Make sure to write down the device number on the back of the thermostat before you mount it, you'll need the number in a few minutes to set up your account with Hunter. The thermostat did feel a bit wobbly with the two screws provided, but that was an easy fix since I had an extra sheetrock screw on hand. Wire terminals are labeled and color coded, yellow to yellow, red to red, etc. It came with a setup booklet which gives clear instructions for mounting, wiring, wireless setup, etc. The thermostat can be bus powered or use batteries or both. Batteries are supposed to last a year or so with normal use. The thermostat snaps in and out of the wall mount, so changing batteries doesn't require messing with screws.

INITIAL SETUP:

You'll need the device number from the back of the thermostat in order to set it up on Hunter's website or iPhone app. Plug the wireless gateway into your router with the included CAT5 cable and hook up the AC/DC power adapter. The LED on the gateway will blink red. Create an account with Hunter (which is $10/year after your free trial is over) and add the thermostat to your account. Within a minute or so, the thermostat will connect and the gateway LED will be green. You're good to go.

PROGRAMMING:

The device is meant to be programmed from Hunter's website or iPhone app, not from the panel itself. It has a few buttons on it such as auto/cool/heat/off, temp up/down, stay/away, schedule on/off, fan on/off.

NOTE: changing the settings from the panel will not override the schedule unless you turn scheduling off! If scheduling is on and you set the temp manually from the panel, the thermostat will go back to the scheduled settings unless you turn scheduling off! It's simple, but many negative reviews have been written about this thermostat because of this. THIS IS A STANDARD FEATURE FOUND ON PROGRAMMABLE THERMOSTATS AND NOT A DESIGN FLAW! If you want to manually adjust the temp, turn scheduling off!

Ok, back on topic. I prefer using the computer with a mouse and keyboard for the initial setup. Windows or Mac is fine for the website. There is only an app for iPhone, not Android (what's up with that, Hunter?), but you can also use the mobile website from your Android or smartphone which works like the iPhone app. Or if you're a computer geek like me, you can easily create your own Android app (using webview).

You can have multiple, separate schedules throughout each day/night for each day of the week. You can also save your custom schedule as a template and apply them to whichever day you wish. All seven days of the week are programmable. You can heat or cool till your heart's content. I found the website, mobile site and app to be easy to use (not sure what's up with the neg reviews on iTunes).

NOTE: the iPhone app doesn't talk straight to the thermostat through your router, it goes through the internet to Hunter so you'll need internet access on your phone and thermostat in order to make changes to the thermostat.

FEATURES:

The thermostat has a lot of features such as auto heat/cool which automatically turns on the heater or AC, whichever is need. You can also program the temperature span which allows you to set how far the temperature can rise/fall before the thermostat kicks in. If you have the thermostat set to cool to 75 and have the span on 3 degrees, it will allow the temperature to rise to 78 before the AC is turned on. You can lower the span down to 1 degree. There is an away mode which turns the thermostat on savings mode while you're out of the house.

There's too many other features to mention here. You can read the product description to see all the features.

CONCLUSION:

I have been completely pleased with this thermostat. I will say though that if you are computer illiterate, you will probably find this thermostat very challenging to setup. There's a lot of features to play with, so take your time to read and reread the manual. Hunter also has a few videos on their website showing how to set everything up. I give this thermostat a big thumbs up.

I contacted Hunter customer support with a few questions regarding this item and was told that this model is discontinued and has been pulled off the market. The internet and iPhone app functions will no longer be supported within a few months. It will then be a non-functional item since it can only be programmed online or via app. Hunter will reimburse those that already own it.

I picked this thermostat up in January. I was originally looking at the Hunter 44905 which was rated well, but decided to go with the 44920 for the wifi feature thinking I would get similar features with the wifi added. That was definitly not the case. Beware, upon picking it up i noticed a label on the box that mentioned a subscription required for the app or online account. I did not notice this on Amazon and it is buried well within the Hunter site. It costs $9.99/yr or $50 lifetime after a 3 month trial.

The look of the thermostat and the instilation was both nice and easy. I was shocked to discover that you can not program the thermostat from the device. You have to program it from the app or online. The app is horrible and glitchy. You can not set the time or date. It is supposed to auto set for you by zip or postal code, but never worked right and had the wrong day. Tried multiple postal and zip codes. Setting up the schedule seemed easy at first, but later trying to edit the schedule caused numerous errors requiring me to delete my programs and start over. The app would also crash often and had long delays and time outs while trying to make changes on it. I emailed Hunter to see if there are any plans to imporve the app but they never responded. I refused to pay a single cent more for the subscription on this useless app, and without the subscription the thermostat basically reverts back to a basic thermostat and can not be programmed. Returned it and decided to put the money and extra $50 for a subscription towards a Nest 1st gen on sale and I'm very pleased.

Honest reviews on Hunter 44920 Universal Internet Thermostat, White

We have a home that we're fixing up, and so only spend every other weekend there. This review is thus oriented to the needs of someone with a vacation house. From that perspective, this is a really handy product. You can call up the app and see what temperature it is inside the house, and what your heater is doing. There's also an estimate of what the temperature is outside.

PROS: Easy to install. Works. Easy to fire up the Internet connection, and the app.

CONS; The back plate is kinda flimsy, but that's not a big deal. You must might worry a bit you are going to snap the thing.

When you plug the device in, it says 'disconnected.' if you are like me, you try to re-plug it in. Actually, what that means is "disconnected" from the Internet. once you fire up the Internet connection, that goes away.

Auto-program: The device comes with a built-in program that will heat your house to at least 60. You need to shut the settings off, a couple of times, from the phone. I was still not sure I had the damn thing off, so I just created a setting at which every time is 50 degrees. I think Hunter would have happier customers if they walked someone through the process of shutting down the auto-programming.

This brings up a final point, which is that the lowest you can set this thermostat via your app is 50. I would save a lot more money if I could set it to 40. But ... hey, the darn thing works. It was a good investment.

I live in FL and will not get a lot of use from this but there are a few months of the year when it gets cold at night. This heater puts out a generous amount of heat and will keep you warm. It is loaded with features: High heat really heats up the room quick, low heat keeps a nice steady flow of warm air (which my boxer loves) and there is a high/low temperature setting that automatically turns the unit on/off. The remote is definitely a nice feature and the REALLY cool thing is the little hiding slot on the rear of the unit to store the remote. Can't go wrong here ....

Bought this to replace one in the fitness room in my community. The original one was installed upside down by the subcontractor for the builder 6 years ago. It lasted for many years, but after multiple attempts by unknown individuals trying to adjust the temperature to their liking, it was showing wear and was very loose and easy to pry since it was installed with the lock's hook upside down (locking mechanism was on the right).

This one was installed properly with the locking mechanism to the left. We used heavy duty double sided tape to attach it since our thermostat was installed in a mirror. So far, it has not been tampered with and is nice and sturdy.

The Honeywell TL8230A1003 T-Stat is an Ambient (air) Temp Thermostat. Which i am going to keep, because the T-Stat which receives the Floor sensor wiring costs a lot more, and ultimately I just want the floor on and heating itself and the room.

This sensor was bought as a spare, recommended, just in case the one with the kit didn't function. It's kind of tough to get to once it's embedded in cement.

THIS IS THE 2ND Victorio VKP1006 Electric Food Dehydrator WE PURCHASED. THE FIRST WAS TO AUGMENT THE OLD ONE. THE Victorio VKP1006 Electric Food Dehydrator IS 1000 TIMES BETTER THAN THE OLD ONE WE DECIDED TO THROW AWAY THE OLD ONE AND BUY ANOTHER Victorio VKP1006 Electric Food Dehydrator . THIS MACHINE DRIES BEEF IN A FEW HOURS AND THE FAN MAKES EACH TRAY DRY IN THE SAME TIME.

We decided to dry a small dehydrator after having a big one some years ago. The small one is just right for dried apples and fruit leather. Since it doesn't have a timer we had to check the product more often but we soon learned when to remove a tray and when to leave one in longer.

It worked well for about a week and then one of the fans quit. I emailed Lou, the owner, about it and he said mail it back and I'll replace it. Mailed it back and didn't hear back for a couple weeks some emailed again. He said "oh it's on the way." Nothing for about 10 days. I've been emailing every other day for a week now and haven't gotten any response.

The product was well packaged, complete, and came with good instructions. It took me about 2 1/2 hours to install, but I am sure you could do it in half the time with a helper.

Pros:

Easy to install

Kit includes everything you need (except tools of course)

Great value compared to larger vent fans

No cutting through walls

Even included vent block-offs for the winter

Cons:

Amount of air exchanged is limited by the relatively small fans and vents

A bit noisy when in operation (only a con if you are in the garage when they are running)

Conclusion In the end I was torn between 4 or 5 stars. I gave it 5 because even though it won't measure up to a large wall vent system it is much simpler, easier to install, and costs a lot less. It is a great product that does exactly what it claims. It won't magically keep your garage cool when you park a hot car in it on a hot day, but it will dramatically decrease the amount of time it takes to cool back down to ambient temperatures. My garage is now down to "normal" temperatures a few hours after parking. Before it would still be warm when I went out in the morning after sitting all night.

Tips Make sure you pick up a good quality 4 1/2" hole saw for installation, they may be hard to find at the local hardware store. Also get some plastic spray paint to paint the outside covers for a professional looking installation.

Does just what it says. It cools your garage. With careful installation, you should be pleased.

I was somewhat dubious of this product and emailed another reviewer before buying. I'm glad I did. He's a doctor and he reassured me that he liked his, so I went ahead and bought it. Thanks, Doc, although I didn't realize you would bill me just for asking your advice...

Anyway, it does just what it says. It cools your garage.

Prior to the unit being delivered I monitored the temperature in my garage which has a south facing door and a water heater in one corner. Almost always above 95 degrees. After installation...84 degrees.

My overall home cooling bill dropped, I think, because the heat removed from the garage did not transfer up into the "bonus room" above our garage. (next big project is to inspect insulation or lack of between garage ceiling and bonus room floor)

Biggest caution I can urge.....I measured for placement of the vents several times. I even used a similar thickness of wooden block temporarily attached to the door to simulate where I would place my upper vents to make sure nothing would scrape or interfere with the garage door movement. After measuring and cutting the first hole, the vent still scraped against my upper garage door weather strip gasket which I had to pare down to allow unrestricted movement. By this time I HAD to install the vent on the other side of the door the same way to preserve symmetry.

Do what I did, measure, simulate and then move the hole ANOTHER inch inward and downward just to be safe.

Once the first hole is cut, there is no turning back.

Kit seems very small when it arrives, but that is because it is packed so efficiently.

It is simple to install, directions are great. Templates for marking and cutting holes are good, just make sure you are VERY careful of placement like I mentioned earlier.

Fan noise is not bad. Grills on outside of door are a little hard to paint, but are hardly noticed from the street.

I will buy this kit for my next garage when I move to my big house in the country.

Fairly easy to install, involves cutting four holes in your garage door. The retractable AC cord is pretty slick. It's a little noisy and the installation screws are too long for thin doors (poked through mine) but if you need garage ventilation and can't cut through a wall (ours is concrete) this is a neat alternative.

Helped a friend install this in his garage. Came with all of the parts and well packed. The company web site claims that installation time is about an hour. Figure at least 3-4 times that. If you do not have an automatic opener or electric outlet it will take longer. We had the opener installed on the bracket so that did not take much time. Make sure you have the appropriate hole saw and that will probably require a 1/2" drill. That said the only word of caution is to make sure you allow enough room at the top where the exhaust vents are placed so the vents will not hit when open as the garage door is closed. The fans blow the louvers open when running and this requires an additional 11 1/2" clearance then when they are not on.

The company that makes the unit is in Florida and that's where the unit was installed. The system works but offers very little benefit. My friend who was returning to Canada for the summer decided to leave the unit off as there was no benefit he could see. Perhaps the system would offer some small benefit in a different area and when the weather is not too warm or humid. Also, the most this unit could possibly work on is a single car garage.

In Florida the garages do get hot in the summer so having a good fan will make it more comfortable for working. This system won't. In terms of protecting tools and other items the big problem is humidity. This system will do nothing to control that. In fact if you have a dehumidifier it will remove dry air and bring in moist air. In my opinion, if you do not want to go to the expense of Air Conditioning your garage, spend the money that this vent system will cost and install a dehumidifier, which will cost about the same. You can add a fan for additional comfort.

Finally, This is not a commercial system and I question how long the parts will last. While the unit comes with some guards and screens for the vents you will need to install some tighter mesh screens if you want to keep small critters from entering. At least in Florida.

I gave the system two stars because it does work and might be helpfull in small garages and in different areas. However,I have the same garage as we installed the system in, and I would not install the unit in my garage even if it were free.
