Review of Comfort Zone CZ892 Multi Purpose Shop Heater

Comfort Zone CZ892 Multi Purpose Shop Heater
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

Ordered three as gifts for people on Pine Ridge Reservation who desperately needed heaters to keep warm. They didn't heat well to begin with. None of the heaters were used full-time, or during the day, and certainly not overnight. In addition, the heaters went to different people. After just over a month's use all three began to smoke and the constant smell made the owners afraid to use them. This purchase was a major disappointment as well as a TOTAL waste of money. They certainly weren't inexpensive. The only reason one star was given is because the system forces one to rate items. Had I been able to give no stars, I would have.

This is just what I was looking for. I have a workbench in my garage, and this small heater works well for me since it runs on 110 volts. I did not want to go to the trouble to install a 220 plug. The control knobs, and the housing of this heater is top quality.

Should be called a foot warmer not a shop heater. Does not produce very much heat. Have a ceramic heater that produces three times or more of heat output.

Honest reviews on Comfort Zone CZ892 Multi Purpose Shop Heater

When I turned it on my 12 x 14 home office was a chilly 64 degrees F, in 30 minutes it was a toasty 69 degrees F. I did not find the noise very loud (similar to a hard drive) and overall am VERY satisfied. The thermostat seems to work OK, but I can see I'll have to tweak it. I would recommend this little beauty to anybody.

I work in an office, and I'm ashamed to say that my tootsies get cold pretty frequently to mitigate that problem, I could have bought any one of a thousand little heaters that are all nice and contoured, with little pictures of fans on them, but when I came across this bad boy, I knew instantly that this is what I needed This all-metal box is the perfect thing to keep my delicate little toes at a perfect temperature while allowing me to salvage the maximum amount of dignity.

Item was just as described at a fraction of the price. Shipped fast!

Simple to install, instructions (if needed) were very easy to follow. Had the same problem on 2 of my GE frige, bought 2 of these defrosters and fixed both.

Almost had a technician come out to look at my frige, he wanted to charge me 70 just for the visit. Fixed the issue myself for under 50.

This is a double heating elements replacing the oem, single element. The size of this new element is a bit wider than the original. I have to do a simple modified to make it fit in its original place. But the item work perfect so far after a month.

The part functions correctly but the bracket is wider based on the doubling of the heater elements. This makes reinstallation of panels much tighter than originally designed.

fit perfectly and works great..also suggest replacing the defrost thermostat at the same time if it has never been replaced

Install was easy enough for a general handyman. Fixed my refrigerator, and haven't had any issues with the defrost system since.

I needed a good, quiet window unit to attach to my MASH style army tent. This unit works as advertised and was very quiet. It cranks out cold air and the thermostat maintains constant temps. Since it runs on 220 VAC, the cable was cool and never overheated even though the tent was on 100 degree heat. It feels like it is built very solidly and will last a long time.

For those of your who do not know, this product is not made for use in the USA. It is made for CHINA only. So if you live in the USA, DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT.

Purchased this item to monitor and control the temperature in our vacation home. Installation of the relay on the heater was a bit confusing and if you have no electrical experience I would definately recommmend having a qualified electritian do the installation. Other than that, the unit does what it states. You will need a Redlink Gateway to complete the installation which may not be clear when you first buy the system. It's expensive but worth the piece of mind knowing that your house will not freeze over and the ability to walk into a warm home when you arrive is great. Iphone app is very easy to use and you can set up e-mail alerts for hot and cold temps.

I really like my Lakewood 8320 Ultra-Quiet 19-Inch 300-Watt Tower Heater with Carbon Fiber Technology which is rated at 300 Watts. You might think that the 300 watts is not going to be enough heat for most rooms, and you'd probably be wrong. I estimate that it produces much more heat than my other "600 Watt" portable fan-type heater, yet it is totally silent, less bright than the infrared dish heaters and it does not produce any odors like ceramic and oil heaters are famous for. Just check with the Ace Hardware outlet supplier before buying or wait for Amazon to get the 8330 back in stock. I would estimate that the heat output from the 800 Watt setting on it would be equivalent to approxomately 2000 Watts on a ceramic or other type of heater--and you save carbon and the do the environment and your electric bill a favor!

Replaced a quartz heater, fan forced ceramic, and oil filled with this SUPER quiet heater. Quieter than the quartz (they buzz for a second on start up). Obviously quieter than a fan unit! Faster response than oil filled.

Uses only 800 watts instead of 1500 like others. A huge advantage in both reduced power usage and stess on the cord, plug, etc. This unit only pulls ~6.6 amps instead of 12.5 for 1500W (most likely your home outlets/wiring are only rated for 13/15 amps max...so 1500W is pushing it!).

This heater puts out as much heat as our other 1500W heaters!

The carbon fiber techology is awesome and a much better technology than the others.

I am ordering another one today, so that tells you whether I recommend it or not!

The seller and packaging were good too.

The only issue is mentioned in the other reviews. It has only one switch and only one setting. No problem for me, especially since it is only 800W.

I purchased a Lakewood 8330 heater last year and am using it for the second winter. This is a great space heater. It provides wonderful radiant heat at a very low cost. It has only one setting, not two as described, but don't let that deter you from buying it! I will be buying a second one this year!!!

I've had two of these and they work great. Then, after about a year, the on/off button breaks. I expect something to last for more than a year!

The Amazon description of this product is mostly fiction. There is only one (800 watt) heat setting, there is no thermostat. The auto shut-off, a button between the bottom of the product and the floor, is a dysfunctional design failure that only works on hard surfaces—turns the power off when placed on a low pile carpet. I returned it.

Best Rowenta DW6080 Eco-Intelligence Iron 1700-Watt Steam Iron Deals

Rowenta DW6080 Eco-Intelligence Iron 1700-Watt Steam Iron with 3D Stainless Steel Soleplate
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I recently purchased this Rowenta to replace my old Sunbeam which was also a great steam iron, and wow, what a nice piece of household equipment! I ironed 8 dress shirts in less than an hour and they all had a great finish, only refilled the iron once and I was using heavy stream. My shirts came out looking better than they do when I take them to the cleaners. This iron will easily pay for itself in the first couple months. Also, how cool is the finish on this iron? I couldn't resist it. The black, green and stainless steel are a nice option from the boring colors irons usually are, looks great sitting up in my walk in closet. I've already had several people ask what brand it was and where I it it from. Definitely reccomend, well worth the money and will last a decade before needing to be replaced.

We've been using this powerful iron since early November 2012. It puts out a great amount of steam on medium and high settings, and, to its credit, I do think the one millimeter bevel helps with dispersing steam using less water. The unit feels good in my hands and the cord is not too short. For medium and high temperature-capable fabrics, this iron is a good, solid buy. For low temperature fabrics, well, that is another story.

One millimeter. What a difference that millimeter makes.

That missing millimeter across the vast amount of the surface of the iron's soleplate, means you are actually only pressing your material in the areas with bordering ridges. These ridges appear to equate to, at most, four inches in the center, from front to back, and two inches closer to the sides. This means you either press harder, use more steam (which means raising the temperature almost to the line where the medium heat range starts), or press longer, if you want to eliminate wrinkles on low-temperature fabrics.

Why is this? Because when using the lower heat range, the thermostat only turns on the heating element long after any steam stops. Sadly, all of my dress pants require heat lower than what this iron needs to produce steam (to be fair, the steam button can occasionally produce steam, but only right after the element cycles on). So, it leaves one ironing very slowly (remember, you are only hitting the fabric with 2-4 inches of warm metal) or raising the temperature, and, in reality, going really slow IS raising the temperature on the fabric to some extent. Although I've tried to be careful, two pairs of pants have not-too-nice glossy areas on them from these approaches (thankfully, I iron them inside-out).

This iron also makes wet ironing when you don't use the dryer difficult. Again, that millimeter means that even if you are ironing shirts that accept a medium heat setting, you are only going to really be ironing with 2-4 inches of the whole plate bottom. So, this makes another ironing chore of mine rather more time consuming than I would have expected. (Of note, it is interesting to see the inverse image of dry-vs.-wet soleplate on a wet shirt. It really illustrates what part of the iron is actually doing the work.)

Despite these concerns, the iron has been worth the try. I can vouch that it does a really nice job if you aren't using it for my normal circumstances.

Due to these issues, we may find a close relative to whom to give this. To Rowenta's credit, we will likely get one of their flat-bottomed units.

What a difference a millimeter makes.

I finally had to replace my old Rowenta which has lasted 20 years--and actually still works but does not steam as well as it once did. My fault I am sure, because I never emptied the water out. Not sure why the Eco Intelligence tag on this iron--it basically works like any other but has lots of steam and a pointy nose to help me iron quilt seams. And if an iron can be said to be pretty--well yes this one is--kind of old school and new rolled into one. Not too heavy ---but heavy enough to warrent the price. This is every bit as good as my old one--only with more steam vents. I would recommend this iron to anyone who sews. A little spendy if all you do is touch up perma-press shirts.

Honest reviews on Rowenta DW6080 Eco-Intelligence Iron 1700-Watt Steam Iron

I have owned many irons that came from big box stores in the $20-$30 range. They always do a decent job for a while and then they break. When my old iron was on its last legs, I started looking for something that wasn't quite so disposable. I decided I wanted to go with Rowenta because of the company's reputation and especially because most of the irons are still made in Germany instead of China like everything else. When comparing Rowenta models, I'll be honest, the design of this iron won me over. It didn't look like any other iron and is actually kind of pretty. I mean, it is still an iron and I'm not going to put it on my mantle or anything, but it is a pretty iron!

I am blown away by the performance of this iron. After years of using those crappy irons and struggling to get wrinkles out, it has been incredible to smooth fabric with one pass. This iron has LOTS of steam. The first big ironing project I had was a quilt I was making. Every step was a breeze, from ironing uncut fabric, to pressing seams, to smoothing multiple layers of fabric. I have since had similar results ironing clothes and even delicate curtains. It is just incredibly quick and easy. I have never used an iron that works so well and would recommend this model to anyone.

Recently bought this to replace my 7yr old Azur Philips steam iron. The Rowenta iron works wonders. Everything about this iron is great, except its cord would be better if its longer.
