I purchased this small heater in the hopes that it would chase away some of the chill in my unheated bedroom during cold winter months. It exceeded my expextations. It made my not so small room warm and cozy very quickly. Worked better than alot of large, more expensive space heaters I have owned.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I needed this heater for the purpose of heating up my cubicle at work as the cold weather is rolling in. It is well worth the very affordable price tag. Heats up according to its setting and is very quiet, the same exact noise level as a computer when you turn it on.
This does the same work as heaters twice its size. I HIGHLY reccommend!
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Sturdy, Good Size & Weight, Nice Design

We placed it in a small room we use for crafts. It keeps the room warm, and stops on its own once it reaches the desired temperature. We had to place a wall thermostat though, because it doesn't have one built-in. Overall it has been working perfectly for what we intended it for.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Good Size & Weight, Durable, Nice Design, it is quiet
Cons: No Instructions
Yes, I recommend this product.

Person I called at Raceway store #8465 not only checked to see if they had it in stock he walked down to the aisle and took 2 off the display and held them for me, Lowes would not check unless I order it first. Now the heater worked great even in a room bigger than it's supposed to handle about 300 sq. ft. Rest of my house was freezing but my bed room was warm and snugly. The thermostat setting wasn't even need to be set high on the unit. Very grateful for the unit and home depot employee
Pros: Easy to Use, Sturdy, Easy to Install, Looks Great, Stylish, Good Size & Weight, Lots of Features, Nice Design
Yes, I recommend this product.

I purchased this model heater for my office around November 2011. It stopped working (wouldn't even turn on) in January. I was able to take it to Home Depot to exchange for the same model. My second heater has now quit working after not being used for several months. I will be taking this one back to Home Depot as well but will probably have to exchange it for the same model again as I no longer have the receipt. DONT BUY!!
Pros: Good Size & Weight
Cons: Not Durable
No, I do not recommend this product.

My office is in the basement of my 980 Sq ft ranch home in suburban Baltimore and believe it or not, it gets COLD here in January and February. I have been freezing in here all day.
I took the heater out of the box, plugged it in, and in 10 MINUTES it was nice and toasty warm in here. For 24 bucks, it was a GREAT value.

I kinda like this small, portable, ceramic heater. One unique feature (not mentioned in the specs) is that these units have a double back plate (where the fan pulls the air in) one of which is removable. Between the two back plates you can install an additional screen (not included) to help keep out dust and dirt that would normally build up on the fan and clog the heating element.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This little heater is awesome. I have 5 at home and 2 in the office. The price can't be beat! My electric bill had only a small increase and my gas bill remains low, as I don't run it as often thanks to my Warmwave heaters. Thank you

Adequate for a small room. I ike the non-directionality of the front louver; which allows the air flow to disburse, rather than be directed toward the floor. It is easily moved inadvertently, because of the extreme light weight and the stiff cord .
Pros: Easy to Use, Looks Great, Good Size & Weight, Nice Design
Cons: stiff cord
Yes, I recommend this product.

I purchased this item for my workspace. I was a little reluctant because of the price. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Instead of wrapping up in blankets or borrowing someone else's heater I finally have comfort of my very own. I've already recommeded it to fellow co-workers!

Bought and returned two other comparable heaters, similar in size and price, but this Warmwave heater was the best. Surprisingly good heat output for such a small unit. But it stopped working after three days. Returned it, but we plan to buy another, hoping that this isn't a widespread design flaw.

Bought it to heat up a cold room, and it works. It works very well. It has a little dial that is a rough temperature setting, and while it does need adjustment throughout the day, it does what I wanted it to, keeps the room warm. Just plug it in and go, its not difficult to use, or hard to install.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Good Size & Weight
