Customer Reviews

This is a winner5
WIth oil [rices going up, blah, blah blah... it was time to get a heater that did a good job of heating my aprtment without costing a fortune. THis heater does it. I have3 a 700 sq. ft. apartment and after an hour it's heated. The thermostat works great. I am thrilled I got this heater and it measures up to the DeLonghi quality standard.

Subtle heat, nice design4
Sealed heaters don't produce a lot of heat quickly (unlike fan-driven heaters), but they are definitely quieter. Think of it as a mini version of a radiator in an older apartment building and you'll get the idea. In this unit, you can vary the output by turning on or off the red switches (I labeled mine with a Sharpie so I wouldn't have to drag out the instructions each time), and has a little analog timer so you can tell it to start or stop heating at a given time of day. The timer isn't terribly precise, but it does the job, and won't lose its memory after a power outage. FAIR WARNING: It stinks, literally, when you first plug it in. The instructions say it will smell funny or even smoke the first time you turn it on. They don't tell you it'll stink up the whole basement, and that it takes a week of running 24/7 to get rid of the worst of it. Based on our experience, I suggest running it in a well-ventilated garage or enclosed patio for a week or two first. Once that's done, it'll be a good little heater (my cat who thinks she's a heat-sink loves to snooze near it.)
