Summary: Great Little Heater
Comments: When we finished off part of our basement as a nice utility room (12 x 20) we also decided to use it as a spare bedroom if needed. Problem was -- its generally 10 - 15 degrees cooler than the rest of the house. Great for summertime to escape the heat however not great for sleeping during the winter even though the temperature where we live in Northern CA. is generally moderate. We considered baseboard heating however the cost of the heaters and installation was in the $1,000.00 range. It seems that any baseboard heater over 3 ft is 220, requires a separate circuit and professional installation.
I then decided to look for a space heater. When I found this heater for $89.00, which was highly rated by Consumer Reports, I said 'what the heck', at this price if it doesn't do the job, I'll use it in my Attic workshop. When we know we'll have guests sleeping over, we turn it on in the morning when we blow up the Air Bed. By early afternoon it's nice and cozy and we set the theralmost allatic control to maintain the temperature. Works great!! It's really quiet. If you do not listen closely you can not tell if the fan is on.
I followed the suggestion of another reviewer and sit it on our patio for 1st use for about 4 hours. The initial burnoff odor would have been pretty obnoxious indoors. I am glad I remembered to do this. Even though the instructions endorse doing it, who reads through all of the instructions before use?
It's light weight and mobile. Great little fan. |

Summary: Works well however sucks power and .....
Comments: The Delonghi HHP 1500 radiator works well however it sucks power. Can use up to 1500 watts!!. Also what they do not tell you in the ads is that you have to plug it in to its OWN outlet/circuit and can not use an extension cord of power strip. It kind of makes it so you have to reallt plan where to put it. |

Summary: works as advertised
Comments: Even comfortable heat for a 19'by 13' poorly insulated room, with several windows.Heats better than the 220v baseboard unit and the electric meter spins slower.Quiet and portable. |

Summary: DeLonghi Heater
Comments: this is a great room heater. It does take a while to warm up the entire room, however once it has time to work, it easily holds the temperature at a comfortable level. |

Summary: A great one
Comments: If you are interested in a quiet radiant heater, this may be a great1for you to consider. I set it up in my office, a room that is 18x16 feet and it heated up the room nicely. It does take more time for this type of heater to heat up a room than a fanned heater would, however the peace and quiet is worth it to me. I have got mine set up on a timer to turn it on and off automatically (it's so quiet, I forget it is there!!). This heater is also portable and I do move it around the house when I know I'll be sitting somewhere for a period of time.
I do like the product enough to order a second one. From my perspective, the only thing missing on this heater is a small quiet fan (perhaps1that is powered by the heat itself!!), plus a built in timer. |
