I use the electric warming to warm up the bed at night. My family uses theirs as a blanket and keeps warm without the electricity. The blankets feel so soft and warm, they were a nice find for our family.,

Works great. I can leave the heat off at night and still keep cozy warm.

It's soft and pretty. The heating elements don't go all the way to the edges so the blanket can lay on the bed and hang over on the sides and bottom properly. The cord is a good length so I had no trouble plugging it in and hiding the cord. I love the mushroom color.

Considering gifting some of these for Christnas because I love mine so much.

Half of this thing didn't work the day I took it out of the box, but kept it to avoid the hassle of returning it. Then after about a month another quarter of it stopped heating up. I tried to contact the seller (dealyard) but they just deferred me to the manufacturer. VERY poor product, DO NOT BUY THIS THING, IT SUCKS. IGNORE THE GOOD REVIEWS, ALWAYS READ THE BAD ONES!!

This item saved me from replacing my whole water heater and consequently wasting more time, spending more money and cleaning the mess in my basement. It definitely worthed. My only concern was it wouldn't fit but it has proved to be almost identical with my broken one, which worked fine for about 7-8 years. It has been shipped very fast, I got it in about 4-5 days, and It took about 30 minutes to replace the old one, including draining the water from the reservoir. There are 4 months since it works perfectly and hopefully will last for a couple of more years.

I am using this fan in a small 12 volt refrigerator, in the freezer compartment. It is quiet, and keeps the interior temperatures very even, and allows a lesser setting on the thermostat to keep sub 40f temperatures.

A previous fan by Sunon that had twin ball bearings lasted 5 years in this use. It still works but got very loud.

This Fan was desirable for its very low amp consumption, among the lowest of any fan available, and the reported current consumption is accurate.

Reviews of Emerson Compact Refrigerator

Emerson Compact Refrigerator
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
I'm usually overall elaborate with my reviews, but I'll be brief on this particular one since more than likely if you're reading this, you're probably buying this fridge on clearance or it's coming to its end of life cycle.

First the positive aspects of the fridge. Emerson has accomplished what many could not successfully do with other brand models, in that you have a fully functional TRUE freezer space inside a compact fridge. It's amazingly large and can actually fit regular tubs of half gallon ice cream. (The horizontal cartons anyway. Vertical cartons can be laid down on their sides) It can keep things in a solid block of ice if needed, and due to the low volume space of the freezer, it acts as a better ice cube maker.

The fridge has a TRUE FLAT back. No wires are exposed, you can literally sit it against the wall. The trick is that Emerson ran the cooling coil around the fridge, so that the heat sink is actually on its sides and bottom. They then covered it with thin plastic on all sides. The fridge is warm to the touch, but never hot because of this.

With positives come negatives of course. The fridge itself would be comparable to 3.9cu Ft models, but because of the enclosed freezer door, it is cut down to total 3.1cu Ft. (2.2cu Ft for space, 0.9 for freezer)

The fridge is HEAVY. It's 57.5lbs is not entirely accurate. Although I don't have an exact measurement, it definitely is a lot heavier than similar compact fridge models. Typically other models would be around 45lbs.

The refrigerator space is surprisingly weak compared to the very powerful freezer space. I'm assuming the motor that it uses is the same one on other fridges, so they implemented more research onto keeping the freezer cold, but not the fridge as cold. If you're a person who likes ICE cold drinks, you'll be in for some disappointment.

Neutral things that you can see positive or negative are follows.

It runs quiet, but runs constantly. The freezer needs to be kept in check and because it uses such a small motor, it has to keep running.

It has key locks. This can be useful if you want to keep alcohol in the fridge, but if you LOOSE your keys. Well, good luck.

Its unusual weight is placed onto four peg legs. If you have sensitive flooring, this can cause dents.

In the end, I like the fridge but don't love the fridge. It's definitely pretty, quiet, and has good freezer space. It's also heavy, runs constantly, and has limited fridge space for its size. This is a true MINI FRIDGE. Take that for what it is.

UPDATE: June 13 2010

----------------------------------------------------------------

Although I reviewed this fridge back in November 2008, I actually had the fridge in May. Now is past the 2 year point and I'm happy to say the fridge is still going strong. I decided to update the review since I saw how many people found this helpful and I wanted to make sure my words didn't loose meaning over time.

First of all this fridge is available in retail chains. So for those of you who are getting bad shipments, I suggest you simply go pick it up. It's a shipping issue between you and the vendor; not Emerson and their fridge.

Second Always remember that this fridge's big selling point is the freezer space. The fridge space isn't any different from other mini-fridges you happen to come across.

For those of you who have actually e-mailed me about the "flat back" yes, this fridge literally has a flat back. The cooling coil you find on most fridges (take a look behind your big one in your kitchen for example) was covered up by Emerson on this model, so it runs around the fridge but is covered by that black thick plastic material you see in the picture. It's really sleek, and very useful for those who want to shove the fridge in a corner with it's back facing outward. KEEP IN MIND for safety reasons, you should still give the fridge some breathing room around the edges.

Still a great fridge, still love mine. I would gladly pick up another one if I actually needed another one. This little guy isn't an Energy Star fridge, but almost no mini-fridge is unless it's those horrible coolers they pass off as fridges now-a-days. Thanks for reading as always.

You can purchase this through target, which may save you on shipping. They also have more reviews on there website than this one does. I ended up going to target. I asked them to open the package to make sure it wasn't damaged since most complained about this, the one I had didn't have any damage. This isn't real stainless steel, more of a look a like. It does have a lock, but my friend told me that you could go to the hardware store and buy the so called "key" (it's not a real key), so if you have a smart roommate this may not work. I like how it has 2 doors. The freezer gets cold. This is a little noisy. 1st off, I didn't keep this, b/c I found one similar that I liked better at walmart (SPT brand)--they have it on amazon as well, and i reviewed it on here. I think the soda holder can be a pro/con depending on if you have a use for it, I didn't. Doesn't hold a quarter of a gallon of milk unless you lay it on the side on the shelf or take the wire shelf out. I like the light inside.

I had a mini fridge in my room for a year and it broke so I replaced it with this Emerson one. I love it, the Freezer gets very very very cold, as well does the refrigerator part. You can store lots of things in it, and it even has its own storage compartment for fruits and cold cuts!

We bought the refr from the Target store so nothing was damaged on it.We arent real happy with the coldness of the refr part.Freezer is good but the pop isnt that cold with the temp on 6 which is the highest it will go. It is quiet running and looks attractive.

As the title says, this refrigerator stopped working after 16 months of not-so-sincere serving. I think the compressor is not working anymore I still hear the sound of the motor but the spaces (top & bottom) never get cold. This malfunctioning happened while I was away I had to throw away every single food I had in this machine :(

About the product:

It has a very weak refrigerator space and a strong freezer space as somebody has mentioned below. How weak it is: you don't want to keep milk in the refrigerator. It won't last till its expiration date. Rather, the milk will get fermented. The freezer is quite strong, holds lots of food compared to its limited space. The machine itself is quite.

I don't think I am ever going to buy the same product again even if the price is lower than what I paid before; I paid about ~$130 for this product.

The picture on this item currently shows a thermostat that is taller than it is wide. I ordered specifically to fit into a narrow space. One bate-and-switch later I received a 1F78-151 which is wider than it is tall and far to wide for the space where I need to put it.

Discount DeLonghi HHP1500 Safeheat Mica-Panel Heater

DeLonghi HHP1500 Safeheat Mica-Panel Heater
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
We purchased this from Amazon.com for our 6 month old baby's room so we don't have to heat the rest of the house just to get his room warm. I compared this to oil heaters and found this to be better since it is also quiet (no fans) and fairly safe.

I was surprised on how light weight and small it is compared to the pictures on the web. The dimensions are: 26"wide, 20" high (23" high on wheels), 2.25" depth (10" deep when on wheels). It is easy to carry because it only weighs about 5 to 8 pounds (I didn't weigh it).

The heating elements heats up very fast, so that is a definite advantage over oil heaters. It can be mounted on the wall with the included wall mount bracket. Once my baby starts walking I will mount it on the wall to keep it out of reach for him, since the front of the unit does get very hot (although you will not burn yourself if you happen to touch it for a second). So you can hang it up like a picture. The heat only radiates from the front of the unit. The front is smooth in comparison to a oil heater, so your child will suffer less injury than the sharp radiators on oil heaters if he/she runs into it with the head.

It heats a small bedroom quickly, so I think it will also heat a medium sized room with low celings well, but probably not a large living room or kitchen/dining-room.

PROS:

1. Lightweight low profile design can be wall mounted

2. Quick heating

3. Totally quiet

4. High power heating

CONS:

1. Odor: During the first day of use after new it off-gases a lot and generates a strong odor. So make sure to turn it on high heat in the garage or somewhere away for several hours before installing it in a closed room.

2. No digital thermostat: I would prefer a digital thermostat where you can set a temperature. With this one you have to wait until the room is at the right temperature and then set it. This is not exact and takes several tries to get it right.

3. The front of the unit heats up more than I expected, so make sure kids stay away from it.

We've been using this panel heater in our 16' x 20' bedroom for 6 weeks to save big $$ by turning the central heating way down at night. It works very well to heat the room throughout the night and is virtually silent. There are some tiny expansion noises when it is heating up, but it has never made any noise to waken us during the night and we are light sleepers. Just need to turn it on about a half-hour before bed to warm up the room. The room stays pleasantly warm even on the 750W low power setting with the built-in temp control turned less than half-way to max. It heats without moving air around (no fans) so it takes a while to distribute the heat. Folks who want instant blowing heat may not like it but they will have to tolerate fan noise. For us, silence is golden and this heater provides silent heat which is fully adjustable. It is also light weight and moves easily by either carrying (has built-in handle) or rolling on the supplied casters.

One of the most aesthetically pleasing space heaters I've ever seen. it can be sat on rollers or mounted to wall. It can keep my uninsulated 4,000 cubic foot (20' wide x 20' long x 10' high) garage at a tolerable temperature when it's 15 degrees outside.

Tip #1: As with any new space heater, it will emit an unpleasant chemical smell when first used. When it's new, I suggest you set it on high and place it in the garage or outside for 3 to 4 hours before using it inside.

Tip #2: Hot cords/plugs are usually the result of using the wrong gauge of wire in your extension cord or electrical outlets. Use at least a 14-gauge (I'd probably go with a 12-gauge) extension cord and plug it into an outlet that is wired (with 14, preferable 12, gauge wire) to at least a 15-amp circuit breaker. This will be the only thing you'll want running on that circuit breaker. If you don't do that, then don't complain about hot plugs or wires. It's not the heater's fault. It's a basic principle of electricity.

Tip #3: No, it's not going to produce as many BTUs as a propane or kerosene heater will. Electrical heaters are quite capable of producing equal BTUs, without producing carbon monoxide like gas heaters do, but they also have to make it safe to plug into a wall outlet and that means about 1500 watts max. If you have a large room you've been heating with a gas heater and you want to replace it with an electric heater, then you're going to have to get a 240v 30 Amp (or better) heater and probably have an electrician wire it in for you on a dedicated dual-pole circuit. This is a space heater, not a furnace. It's for making warm rooms warmer. Don't disparage this heater because you got the wrong tool for the job. Do your research.

Tip #4: If you want to remove the stickers from the face of the unit and the adhesive is being stubborn, then try heat. If that doesn't work, then go to an auto parts store. They sell several different adhesive removers that are safe for painted surfaces.

Honest reviews on DeLonghi HHP1500 Safeheat Mica-Panel Heater

I use this heater in an unheated screen porch where my dogs sleep. Storm windows keep the wind out, but It was still too cold for the dogs. This heater is great if you're concerned about "dog proofing". It was mounted to the wall and I covered the cord with wooden trim along the baseboard, preventing cord chewing. It heats the 12' by 15' room to a nice 70 degrees, even though the walls are not insulated. Oklahoma has fairly mild winters, rarely getting below 20 degrees, or so. I can't say how the heater would work in this application if you have harsh winters, but for keeping an unheated, small room warm in a mild climate, its great.

My review title says it all, really. I bought this heater because it was a Consumer Reports top pick. And I loved it -effective, quiet, easy to use -until it flamed out five months after I bought it. Quite literally. This was after using it for probably six hours a day (except weekends) during those five months. One day I noticed my cat staring at it; curious, I looked, too, and suddenly a bright orange spot the size of a nickel appeared near where the power cord entered the unit, and there was a burning smell. I quickly turned it off and unplugged it. There was a scorch mark where the flareup had been. After letting it cool, I plugged it back in and tried to turn it on, but it was (and is) permanently dead.

Needless to say I am disappointed with the short lifespan of this product, and am feeling rather lucky that I happened to be close by, and able to unplug it quickly, when it decided to have its fatal meltdown. Who know what damage it might have caused if I'd been out of the room.

I bought this thermostat because the temperature on the top landing of my stairs where the original thermostat was located was totally different than in our master bedroom and kids' room. With this thermostat system, the temperature is based on wherever I put the wireless unit. We keep it unmounted on the nightstand. Here are some clarifications of things I could not find elsewhere or took a long time to find out.

1. A common wire is needed. This is the wire that provides electricity to the thermostat. Not all thermostats need this wire nor are all HVAC systems wired with one. Some basic units do not have a common wire. An easy way to figure out if you have one is to pop off the face of your current thermostat and see if there is anything connected to the terminal marked with a "C". If not, you do not have a common wire or at least it is not connected. If you have some spare wires, you can easily connect the other end to the C terminal on your furnace. Without the C wire, this unit will not work.

2. The system is easy to install. I'm no electrician or even much of a handyman, but simple logic makes this an easy install. Just put the wire in the C terminal on your current thermostat to C terminal on this unit. W to W, and so on.

3. The return air sensor is not necessary. If you don't know what this is, don't worry.

4. The large grey piece with the red on the bottom is what mounts to the wall where your existing thermostat/wires are. It's pretty large compared to a thermostat, but it doesn't look bad. The unit with the controls and green face is what can be moved around to any room and the thermostat/furnace will operate based on the temperature wherever this unit is.

Just installed the unit installs easily out of the box. I spent about 15 minutes to mount the base on my wall and connect all the wires. I didn't install the return air sensor it's optional. I also din't mount the thermostat I prefer it to be mobile. I can now put it in my bedroom for more accurate temperature control, or bring it downstairs if we're all there. Very flexible. The kit works a lot better than a 20-dollar basic thermostat which takes some time to "think" and start or stop the system.

We had a wired thermostat in the hallway of the bedroom wing of our home. My wife was wanting the thermostat moved from the hallway to the master bedroom. I thought a wireless thermostat would allow that move and also allow for the thermostat to be moved again if that became necessary.

My original idea was to replace the wired thermostat in the hallway with the Equipment Interface Module (EIM). This would be an easy swap-out and since the wiring was already in place would minimize the time needed for the job. It should be noted that the thermostat wire I had in my wall had all the wires needed to hook up everything in this kit including the return air sensor wiring. That may not be the case for others.

When I pulled the EIM out of the box I realized that mounting it in the hallway wasn't an option. This thing is pretty big around 8 inches square and about an inch deep. Being grey, red & large, it didn't exactly blend into the wall. I didn't need my spouse to tell me that this thing wasn't going to work in the hallway even I could figure that out.

The good news is the EIM can go almost anywhere. So I mounted it on a basement floor joist, below the bedrooms and not far from the furnace. Installation was straight forward. As noted in other reviews, the EIM requires a connection that some thermostats do not the "C" connection. This is the 24 volt ground connection and was labeled "T" on my furnace.

After I installed the components, I programed the thermostat and everything is working like a champ. My wife is very pleased with the ability to place the thermostat anywhere she wants it.

I purchased two of these, to double-check the accuracy. They consistently "tracked" together through many uses. Now have one in each of my ovens.

I bought this to test my oven. I learned that the temp. of my electric oven is correct but takes twice as long to warm up. That's worth knowing. The digital on my oven says 'preheat' and them beeps when ready. It is off by almost 6 minutes.

This unit is small, easy to read and it can stand on a rack or hang under a rack.

I didn't really need this anymore after testing my oven so I gave it to a neighbor. It is presently making the rounds in the neighborhood.

The only complaint is some sharp edges. I didn't cut myself but I could have.

Ordered this product from Amazon when it returned to stock -price for product with prime shipping (free) plus add-on overnight shipping was under $200.00. Arrived before noon the next day. A great deal.

Unpacked and set-up in family room -took 30 minutes to cool to 58 for red wine (I have a 16-bottle unit that has my whites stored). I've had the unit for four days and it's doing what it should. No sound and temperature on display verified with thermometer placed in unit for two days.

A great thing about the product is that if you would like to upgrade the look of the unit with wood shelves they are available for separate purchase on Amazon. As previous reviewer, I think it looks nice as is once the wine bottles are loaded.

Please note that the included instruction book says to level unit that all legs adjust -however, only the leg under the hinge adjusts (not really a problem).

The only "complaint" with the unit is that, like all the other units I've read about, it does not hold 28 bottles if your collection includes any pinot-size bottles. The unit has slots for the shelving at other levels which is helpful to adjust, but in the end I have taken out one shelf (half of my wines are in pinot-style bottles). I have a few small bottles that I've been able to add on top of the pinot. I would say that even with the lower capacity this is still a great deal.

We purchased the Whynter 28 bottle wine cooler to start our small mid-range collection. From what I have gathered, the no-vibration thermoelectric wine coolers are much more gentle on your wine and easily hit the required temp range. The Whynter unit appeared to be a nice looking unit and had the capacity we were looking for.

We received the product in a much quicker timeframe than we expected. It was a no fuss setup and looked really high-end when we had our bottles in the unit. Couldn't be happier on the price too. Depending on where you situate the unit, it takes less than 25-30 mins to get the internal temperature to an ideal 58F for my reds. The door lock was also a nice bonus, especially with teens at home =)

Very pleased with everything about this purchase. Thanks again for a great shopping experience.

Without it the house is cold soaked and take hours to warn up. There is a iPad and smart phone app that is easy to use.

The unit is very nice looking but perhaps the size is a little overkill. I like being able to place it against the wall and out of the way. Does a decent job of heating a poorly insulated room that is about 300 sq. feet with no other heat source. I was able to maintain the room at 60 degrees when the outside temperature dipped to freezing recently. My main gripe is that the heat comes out near the top of the unit (about 2' above the floor). You can't direct the airflow any lower than horizontal so it stays pretty cold on the floor. Just being about to blow the warm air downward would make me change this rating to a 5 star.

If you are looking for a cost-effective way to heat small rooms, the Lasko 758000 Cyclonic Ceramic Heater is a great buy. In order to be succinct, please find the "pros" and "cons" below.

Pros:

* Effective and easy-to-understand controls that allow for automatic settings governed by temperature objectives or heating by high or low output

* An illuminated display (easily viewable from 5-10 yards) that indicates the surrounding room temperature

* Directional control for heat output

* Nice form factor that allows for flexible floor placement in terms of space needed and general aesthetics

Cons:

* At higher temperature settings, the unit generates a little noise. To be fair, however, the sound is similar to and no more imposing that a PC or Printer

All in all, this is a good unit for rooms that central heating does not reach effectively. I would definitely buy another unit should the occasion arise.

I bought this unit to heat a finished basement. Like everybody, I did the research, read the reviews and weeded through the hundreds of makes, models and different type space heaters. For the money this is a good unit. It does exactly what it advertises and I am a happy camper.

Honest reviews on Lasko 758000 Cyclonic Ceramic Electric Space Heater

YES IHAVE 3 OF THEM NOW AND IT IS OVER A YEAR NOW AND ALL ARE WORKING GREAT AS OF 3/31/2010. I have just purchased the 3rd heater of this model. The temp works just like they say, and is right on target. Set it at 72 and it kicks off at 74 and starts up at 71. The fan is quiet. As a safty they use and over heat sensor that works to cut the heater off if the air flow is blocked. I would still like to have a tip over switch. I did place my unit on it's face to see what would happen, and it did sut down within 15 sec. Other than the tip over switch that I would like as a back up. I have hunted the internet for hours and not found a better unit. Hope this helps you. If it will last more than a year, that would be very good.

Good luck Jerry

I am truly disappointed in Lasko for this particular heater. We have had great service and satisfaction from Lasko products for years and thought they were invincible. This heater really let us down. It looks nice and heats well but has shortcomings and safety problems we just could not live with.

1. Although the direction of the airflow was variable, it sent the heat in the wrong directions and this could not be overcome. Straight forward to straight up was all it offers. Heated air needs to be directed in a downward path (heat rises, you know) to truly be efficient. My wife likes to put the heat near her feet to be comfortable and this was impossible. Nothing below the maximum downward flow (straight ahead) of this heater became appreciably warm.

2. This heater has an extremely small depth footprint. Although relatively unstable and easy to tip over accidentally on hard floors, it tips itself over forward (with NO effort on our part) on carpeting due to most of the weight of the internals being slung forward. To use it at all in the family room, we had to put a relatively wide board under it.

3. After a very little while on high heat, the power cord gets almost too hot to handle. Compared to other heaters we have (All Laskos), the cord on this model is very lightweight. We also noted that on other Laskos in this power range, they had 3 prong plugs and this one only has 2 prongs. VERY CHEAP and we never felt safe with it.

Thanks to Amazon's great return policy, we were able to send this back for a full refund. We then replaced it with another, better designed Lasko (from Amazon) that we are extremely happy with.

Thanks Amazon!
