Crappy Design, but heated well
Right out of the box, this heater made a extremely loud noise. It sounded like the fan was bad by the loud clicking.
I took it apart to find out that the fan was ok, but the wiring wasn't secured in any way and it was actually being hit by the fan. Would have been a matter of time had it been left running before the wires insulation whittled down and exposed the wires causing a short and possible spark/fire.
On top of that, the little red button on the face was broken off.
As far as heating, it was good.
if you want heat..this is what you want
If you are looking for heat..this is the heater you want. Yes, it makes some noise, but nothing more than a large fan. It has a sensor on it, and anything that moves or topples the heater, will cause it to turn off.
I have had this heater from my dorm room to my large apt bed room (4 years) and its doing great, keeping me warm and the heating bills down.
Cons: Can be noisy..(expected considering how much heat it puts out and how large of an area it can cover)
Pros: AWESOME HEAT (even in large areas)
Constantly turns off!
This heater is worthless. I have it on all day at the hightest setting about 6 inches from my legs and it still can't keep me warm. The problem is it runs for about 30 seconds to 2 minutes then it turns off. Waits about 3 minutes then it turns on again. Same pattern all day. I'm buying another and tossing this in the recycle. I wouldn't give this to my worst enemy.
Spend your money elsewhere, but definitely not on this piece of crap.

Sad to say that I had to bypass the "Over Heating" censor mounted in the back of the Heating Pan to make the heater work. It is either too sensitive or mounted in the wrong location.
