I love this a/c unit for my bedroom works like a charm and reasonably quiet if you keep all the filters cleaned. My only question is who designed the exhaust hose set up? It is absolutley ridiculous. I've gone through about $20 of duck tape just trying to keep the stupid exhaust hose in the plastic piece. Why the engineers took a lunch break on this part of the unit is just beyond me. I finally just superglued the darn pieces together. Otherwise, great machine but for the money they really dropped the ball on the exhaust hose set up.

We purchased this item based partly on the reviews here. We paid extra for overnight delivery. The item arrived ok and we unboxed and plugged it in. This unit initialized correctly and then the cold air came out. Ahhh. This is going to be just what we need. It ran for 15 seconds and then the compressor shut down. The fan kept running. We tried it different locations thinking it might be a power problem. It is not. We called Product Support only to sit on hold with no one to answer the phone.

It may well be that this is a good product but you roll the dice if you get one of the good ones.

We ordered this on Amazon Prime and paid for next day delivery. That all went fine. We were going to ask for a replacement but then found out that to get a replacement takes 3 to 5 weeks. Huh? What? You can get me the product in 1 day but it takes 5 weeks to replace it?

What's up with that?

I live in Arizona and needed something better than a Evap cooler for my garage. This unit works well even when the outside temp is 115 degrees. It will bring the inside garage temp down to 85 degrees in 700 sq feet of garage.

Honest reviews on Koldfront PAC1401W Ultracool 14,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

I will state a couple of positives first. It cools fast and it's relatively quiet. There you go. Now worst to first. Set-up with the window adapter, exhaust tube and connecting it to the back of the unit took me an hour! I'm no Joe-contractor, but I've taken apart and put together enough things in my life to know that this is a total duct-tape job at all three points. Tomorrow I have to go to the hardware store to get some clamps that might work. It's ridiculous that the manufacturer of this machine doesn't spend a few extra cents per unit to include a few easy connectors. Get this the owner's manual actually says "duct tape may be required" for the window installation. Classy, huh? Okay, so knowing that I would have never purchased this. Next, the "swing" function designed to circulate the air on my unit is useless because if I employ it, there's a slow ratcheting sound as the louvers raise which lasts about five seconds and sounds three times louder than the unit at full compressor. This wouldn't be so bad, except that there is no left to right adjustment for air direction. Another design flaw is the cheap filter. It doesn't readily show ambient temp, you have to plow through the remote control to find the function. This is far and away the worst product I've ever purchased on Amazon. Why not return it? You put it all back together and haul it back to the UPS store up and down three flights of stairs in 100 degree heat after you just spent the most frustrating hour in recent memory and it's just not worth the hassle. Plus, I only need it a few weeks a year. Instead I would highly recommend the LG at this BTU. I had an LG and it was snap, snap, done in five minutes. I'll be selling this one after the heat is gone and getting another LG. Don't buy this product. I would never buy anything with this brand name. Sorry folks at Koldfront your product, at this price is a rip off. BTW if you're one of the people pulling your hair out trying to connect the hose, you can buy clamps similar to those you use on a dryer exhaust. Also, if using tape, I would suggest a high grade high temp pvc tape. Slightly less unsightly seals better and does not break down as quickly as duct tape. Just a couple suggestions to save you some headaches because you will have some.

We purchased this unit for our server room and it should provide plenty of cooling; however, it does not. We replaced a 12,000 BTU LG Unit after it died and hoped that this unit would be as good. It is not.

Our setup:

5" Ducting from the back of the unit to the ceiling to vent out the heat

Powered water pump unit to carry the condensation outside the building

The unit is sitting in front of our 42U Server Rack

Problems:

The EXHAUST Port on the back only sticks out 1/2" making it nearly impossible to hold the exhaust hose.

* We had to heavily duct tape the exhaust host and tie it up to keep it in place

* Warm air still leaks out

The Cold Output is minimal. The air is cold but does not travel very far.

* The 12k BTU LG worked well and kept the room cool

We are going to get rid of it and replace it with a split duct unit.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Addition as of Dec. 19, 2012: We've been using this heater constantly for weeks now that it's cold and I'd give it even more stars if it were possible. It's small, doesn't raise our electric bill much, and heats out big living room all by itself, and quickly. I've always preferred space heaters to whole-house heaters and nearly always buy one every season -never the same kind. If this one ever breaks down, I'll get another of the same kind. One of the most impressive things about it is the "low" setting. It goes low enough that I can put it right next to my feet and it warms without overheating my skin and making it itch. My cat also can comfortably sleep with it inches from his face without problems. I absolutely love this heater. (Below is my original review.)

Here in southern California, we don't need heavy duty heaters. In fact, I virtually never use the whole-house heater because I prefer, even in winter, to have a cold face and warm feet. I've been using little space heaters like this for at least 20 years.

We have a 13X20 foot living room and I set this Bionaire heater up in the usual place: beneath the edge of a very large double-decker glass coffee table. This way, my feet get hit, my husband, sitting kitty-cornered from me in his Laz-E-Boy gets a nice blast, and the table warms, which is an absolute necessity according to our cats. Some heaters accomplish only these requirements, but the Bionaire also easily heats the entire room, and quickly. The oddly rotating grill definitely amps things up, too. It's perfect for our needs.

Finally, and most importantly in our multi-cat household, if the heater tips over, it turns off. Last year I bought a heater for $60 -the Bionaire is only $35 -and it didn't have a safety shut off. (I hadn't even thought to check -I assumed it had one because of the price, and you know what happens when you assume...) Because of this, I couldn't leave the heater on for the cats as I normally do on the coldest nights. This year, our cats will be much happier. Recommended!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I'm always scouting for a better space heater for our guest bedroom/sewing room. It's the "bonus room," the large room above the garage, and is very chilly during the winter.

I have been using the original little ceramic heater made by Pelonis, Pelonis B-6A1, Classic 4 Disc Ceramic Safety Furnace, Brown. The Bionaire is about 1/3 larger than the Pelois and is about half the price. The Bionaire threw lots of heat, enough to warm up the room in short order. The rotating grill did disburse the heat more evenly and seemed to spread the warmth quicker than the Pelonis. Nevertheless, the ceramic disc design of the Pelonis is probably still the gold standard for space heaters.

My Bionaire was missing the owner's manual. There was no documentation of any kind in the box just the heater. However, the operation is fairly straightforward and self-evident. Some instructions are printed on the side of the box.

The Bionaire has an automatic cutoff, so, of course, I tried it. Upon tipping over the heater, the cutoff switch activated. I tried to restart it and, nothing! Then, I read on the side of the box that you must wait 30 minutes for the heater to cool down before restarting. Probably, a good safety feature.

The cord of the Bionaire is long enough that you don't need an extension. Space heaters are not supposed to be used with extension cords. A nifty little feature is a cord storage area on the bottom of the heater. Neatness counts.

This is only the second product I've bothered to review, despite purchasing on average over two products per week on Amazon. I do, however, appreciate all those who do write reviews and wish I had the energy to pitch in. BUT this product is so wonderful, I just had to write. It gives off plenty of heat to raise the temperture in my bedroom, which is approximately 20+' by 20+' and has a little alcove, which I use as a study EVEN WITH THE BEDROOM DOOR OPEN as it is now.

I have a thermostat in the room and this little space heater can raise the temperature from 64 to 70 degrees and keep it there. It does not have an odor that is annoying and most important, it does not get hot to the touch ANYWHERE and is quite simple to operate. Some reviews say their unit failed in 3 or so months (or even in a shorter time). Well, all companies produce a lemon or two. I've only had this product about 3 weeks and mine's fine. But even if it fails in a month or so, I'd buy another next year. At this price, for this performance, it's worth it.

Honest reviews on Bionaire BFH2242M-SM Heat Circulator with Rotating Grill

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Bionaire Heat Circulator with rotating grill works great. We have had a few chilly nights here lately, perfect to give this heater a try ,it works great! Believe me when I tell you I have several different makes and types of heaters . This one holds it own with the best of them. It has a pleasing shape and two heat settings. You can also turn off the grill rotation. I also like the tip over overheat safty feature.I put it on high and it warmed an open 12 x 13 ft room with 9 ft ceilings. The only thing that took getting used to was the way the grill rotates. It slowly goes around instead of from side to side. It works just as well as my tower heater and as an added bonus the rotation of the grill mesmerizes my dog. Give this one a try I'm sure you will like it.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I got this for my kids (aged 4 and 5) for when they get out of the bath tub. I put it in the adjoining bathroom (they have a jack and jill bath with separate sinks) and it heats the room up nicely for when they get out of the tub (and start screaming at the top of their lungs how cold they are) and makes the drying experience much more pleasant for all of us. I recently tried it on our sunroom after a rug got wet and we wanted to speed up the drying. That was a much larger room (14x14) and it was not nearly as effective. Still, it did warm the room some.

It is very quiet and overall it works very well. For smaller (11x11 or smaller?) rooms it is very effective and seems very safe. No hot, glowing wires or anything like that. It is very "plastic" and doesn't look engineered to handle a beating, but it works well and I would recommend it for anyone looking to improve the heating in a room, or counter-effect a draft or for our use, of heating a small bathroom area it is great!

I have a small 20 Watt 12V DC solar panel and two 6 Watt ceiling fans for my greenhouse and wanted to figure out how to turn the fans on when an internal temperature threshold was crossed. This switch works perfectly to facilitate that goal. I used 12 AWG wire and female connectors from Menards to make the connection from the battery to the switch then the same to connect the fans. I positioned the switch at waist height to make certain the majority of the greenhouse was at or about 80 degrees when the switch activates. So far, it all works perfectly. When the sun is out, the greenhouse heats up and the fans go on as soon as the internal temperature reaches 80 degrees. The 20 watt solar panel is more than enough to power the two ceiling fans plus a humidity exhaust fan made from a recycled 120mm computer exhaust fan. As soon as the sun goes down, or the internal greenhouse temperature goes below 65, the fans shut off. I could not be happier with how well this switch works.

Intended use was for mounting to the back of my wood stove in-line with the fan. I wanted one that would come on at low temp and continue to run even when still 70 degrees as that is still warm air to me when it is below freezing outside. I found that since it rarely gets below 65-63 degrees in my house it never shut the fan off. I almost went with the on @100 and off @85 as that seemed to be my only other option, but then found an adjustable one made by White Rabbit(17$ new). To save you some time if you go the adjustable route it is the 3F50-1 model. I have not received the adjustable yet so have no further comments. From experience I would also find a switch to temporarily bypass the thermostatic control if you use your blower to help start the fire as I do.

Haier HVW12ABB 12-Bottle Wine Fridge, Black
Customer Ratings: 3 stars

It seems to function largely as I expected it to, except for two things:

1. I had to conduct an experiment with a thermometer to figure out whether the "Min" and "Max" on the dial meant "maximum cooling" or "maximum temperature". I think Min is the warmest, and Max is the coldest.

2. Wine bottles vary in thickness a bit. (For example, a typical Pinot Noir bottle is a little wider than a typical Cabernet Sauvignon bottle.) The spaces for wine bottles are a bit small for getting the wider ones in and out, and I probably couldn't fit a bunch of the wider ones near each other. So it can hold 12 narrow bottles fine, but not 12 wider ones.

I have now had this product for One month. it really does the job of cooling the wines well, albiet with some faults. First, it doesnt have a real Temp gauge, and if i wasn't doing quick shopping when i first bought it i wouldn't have got it if i had known. Its kinda a guesstimate as to the temperature. 2nd. The little LED is far insufficient for internal light, needs more. That aside, quiet, good aesthetically pleasing cooler from Haier a fairly reliable company, all in all a fairly solid 3.5 4.0.. next time though im getting one with a pronounced temp gauge.

I needed somewhere to reliably store wine in my apartment... which is not a constant temperature or humidity (living near the beach it can get quite humid). This is a very simple solution. It is a small form factor and easily fits into small places in my apartment. It is quiet only a small fan in the back making noise. All in all, for the price this is a great buy.

My complaints consist of... 1) poor packaging. It was poorly packaged for shipping and arrived with a scratch on the left side and a dent in the back. Still usable, but annoying. 2) There is no real means of measuring the temperature. It is just a dial, like in your average refrigerator, that you turn one way for "cooler" and the other way for less cool. But, again, at this price, it is well worth the money. 3) The LED that lights up the bottles inside can be annoying. There doesn't appear to be a means of turning it off.

I went so far as to buy another one as a Christmas present. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice place to keep their wine, but doesn't want to break the bank to get it.

If you're in hot weather, or on a hot day don't expect this to keep your wine at an acceptable temp. If you're lucky maybe 10 to 15 below room temp. I wouldn't buy it again.

Salamander Chameleon Active Cooling Rear Panel for 30-Inch-Tall Reviews

Salamander Chameleon Active Cooling Rear Panel for 30-Inch-Tall Cabinet
Customer Ratings: 5 stars
Buy Now
I recently purchased a Salamander Chameleon 336 in "Oslo" trim and it is amazingly well built. I've had lots of other AV cabinetry and stands but this is my first Salamander and I have to say that they absolutely worth the price. This accessory active cooling rear panel is no exception. While you might balk at how ridiculous it sounds to spend nearly $200 on a simple panel with fans on it, think about what it does to protect your electronics. If you have an amp, receiver, or other heat-producing component, this is a must in lieu of the plain non-actively ventilated panel that came with the cabinet. Even if you have ample space around your separating your electronics inside the cabinet, stagnant air trapped on all sides including the rear can build-up a significant amount of heat and will cause long-term damage to your components. Trust me on this: I had a previous Denon receiver fail on me due to my disregard for proper ventilation.

Unlike the standard non-cooling panels that come with all Salamander Chameleon cabinets, the plastic on this active cooling panel seems to firmer and doesn't have a curvature built in to it. While this requires a bit more muscle to squeeze it into place, I'm assuming this was necessary to accommodate the mounting points of the dual fan unit. Once installed, the fit is perfect. However, Amazon's product image is misleading in how the fans are installed on the 30" tall version. The 30" tall active cooling panel I received has the fan unit mounted in the center, almost in line with the pinch tabs on the sides, and not at the top edge of panel like the Amazon's image shows. In my case, it actually works out very well because I have a source component at the top shelf while the amp at the bottom of the cabinet, which in this configuration provides more cooling for the amp since it needs it more. No complaints here. Perhaps the image is an older one and Salamander received customer feedback that pointed out how most people place heavy amps and receivers at the bottom of big cabinets anyway? It's definitely a welcome modification because I originally purchased the extended version of this active cooling panel that provided an extra 3" of rear clearance for large amps but that unit had the fans mounted at the top which wasn't ideal for cooling my amp sitting at the bottom with a shelf above separating it from the fans and partially blocking airflow for it. After I switched from a Yamaha receiver that was 18" in depth to a Denon that was only 16" in depth, I no longer needed the extra clearance of the extended version so the better fan placement was a welcome surprise.

Installation was a snap, literally. It really just snaps into place after you squeeze in the pinch tabs. No tools or hardware to fuss with, unlike the extended version. It basically mounts like the standard non-cooling panels. There is wire on the inside with a spade terminal that you can either attach to a component's casing screw or use the included magnet cube to secure it to the hottest part of the component or amp. This is a thermistor that will activate the fan speed based on temperature. Even at maximum speed, the dual fans are relatively quiet yet seem to move lots of air. With the door closed, the fans are virtually silent from in front. For power, there is a wall wart and cord that you connect to the fan on the outside. Hard to see where it connects to at first but once it's in, you should've have to unplug it again so no big deal. When the systems is powered-down for a while and everything is cool, the fans shut off automatically.

Be wary of which one you order. There is a 20" version of this for shorter cabinets that will only work with 2xx units. This 30" should fit in any one section of Salamander Chameleon 3xx units.

We bought this heater to replace a vertical, standing quartz heater, because our dogs would get too close to the quartz heater and face it, which is bad for anyone to do. This heater avoids that problem entirely, while warming its surroundings quite handily. We like the ability to customize the distribution pattern of the heat as well as the ability to set the temperature either as a unit or individually, however there was no instruction sheet, so learning how to use the various features had to be learned by trial and error. Nonetheless, this is a well-built system with good design and excellent safety features. The only improvement we would suggest is quieter fans in the units.

Best Cuisinart WAF-4B 4-Slice Belgian Waffle Iron, Brushed Stainless Deals

Customer Ratings: 4 stars

Update: Please read review below. I returned the iron I reviewed below and got a replacement sent. It has been 1 1/2 years with the replacement and All the issues I had with the first iron I have with this one, knob falls off, and coating starts to peel. This is a bad product. Read the details below:

I am a true believer in reading reviews done by people who have owned the product for a significant amount of time. Most products seem great when you first purchase them and the same rings true for this. When I purchased this waffle iron I loved it. It has been about a year and a half since the initial purchase. I make my kids waffles several times a week. So I really use it.

Here is the good stuff: The waffles do cook great and I love the timer. I get great waffles all the time thanks to the beep.

Now the issues:

1. The cost is high considering the low quality of the iron. I have cheaper irons that are built way better.

2. The temperture control handle broke within 60 days. I can use it but if falls off all the time.

3. It is a pain in the butt to clean. The grids do not come out and it's pretty heavy so it is difficult to wash.

4. The sides of the handle get really hot and the handle is not sturdy. They may have addressed this with the new model.

5. My newest issue, the non-stick coating is coming off. YUCK! I had my previous waffle maker for 10 years and the coating is still in-tact. Since non-stick coating is so dangerous for your health I am going to be throwing this out. Every time I use it there are more areas where the coating is chipping off. It has never been washed with anything more than a wash cloth, and no metal utensils are used.

I do not think this is a very good purchase. I hope my review is helpful.

We absolutely love this Belgian Waffle Iron. It browns uniformly, and you can make them as light or as dark as you wish. The audible "done signal" is a major plus. The waffles have deep nooks and crannies to hold all the melted butter or ice cream you want to put on them. My daughter asked for them instead of cake for her birthday party. The recipe in the book is really the best one to use for this iron. Enjoy! We do.

Best Deals on Cuisinart WAF-4B 4-Slice Belgian Waffle Iron, Brushed Stainless

I purchased this Belgian Waffle Iron because I have a bed & breakfast and thought it would be perfect because of the speed of cooking as well as the size and the fact that it had a "beeper" on it to remind you that it was ready to cook and then again that the waffle was cooked. It even has variable temperatures. Well, I find that I want my waffles browned, so it's turned up, but the beeper goes off way before the waffle is ready. And it's really loud! So we have all been laughing at this little machine that keeps beeping me!

I had planned on buying a second waffle iron like this because I'm feeding lots of people, but I can't even imagine dueling beepers! It will drive us nuts. The clean up is fine, the storage is fine, the handle stays cool. Everything is great, except that darn beeper!

Honest reviews on Cuisinart WAF-4B 4-Slice Belgian Waffle Iron, Brushed Stainless

Pros:

Good size waffles

Not too big

Works well after break-in period

Cons:

Beep is super annoying (sounds like a smoke detector)

Break-in period required (the first 6-8 rounds of waffles stuck to the surface badly)

Beep/Green Light really has no bearing on when the waffle is done

No way to latch the lid shut

Doesn't store well on it's side at all

Pain to clean

We are a twice-weekly waffle family and have been for years. We are using this maker effectively now that we've gotten the hang of it. Here's our advice:

Step 1: remove the beeper (flip over the device, unscrew one of the pieces of plastic, de-solder and remove the piezo).

Step 2: plan to throw away your first 6-8 rounds of waffles since they just stick to the surface.

Step 3: hold down the handle for the first half or so of the total cooking time or the lid will rise too much, the waffle will get too airy, and the top and bottom halves of the waffles will split apart.

Step 4: wipe the overflowed batter away with a sponge while the waffles are still cooking and the batter hasn't yet baked onto the sides.

Step 5: experiment with temps (we use ~2.75) and timing (you'll want to go well past the light turning green). Once you get the a good pairing, keep your own timer.

I was wanting another thermostat to replace my manual one, mainly because I wanted to save some money. I never quite knew with my old one exactly what temperature it was. I researched a "lot" of these programmable ones and selected the Honeywell because it had the rhythm of our lifestyle. My wife and I work during the day so we leave at 7:30 and get get home around 3:00. So Monday Friday it's pretty much the same, so that took care of the (5) programmable days. However, Saturday and Sunday are completely different so having a programmable (1) + (1) was perfect. Just read the directions for daily settings of the wake, day, or sleep temperature schedules. Every day has (3) different settings, so be sure you understand that and program it accordingly. Also this is a cool feature, if you don't like what you're getting for that time period (too cool, too warm etc) just hit the UP or DOWN arrow button and it indicates the temperature you want and then it's set for that time period whether waker, day, or sleep mode.

I have spent much more for 7 day programmable thermostats, but this combination of 5-1-1 meet our needs, since we are open the same hours on weekdays, and cosst much less than a 7 day thermostat. Most of all, you don't need to program 7 days, just 3 saving a lot of time.
