I got this heater for my livingroom, because it's has only one functioning heat vent, and gets cold in the winter. I received this today and plugged it right in, the chill was out of the room within minutes. I'm sitting here now very cozy in just my jammie pants, and t-shirt. It looks nice, and fits the space perfectly under my reading table by the window. I can hear the fan, it's not super quiet, but it's not disruptive to me at all. This is a great heater for even a medium sized room, highly recommend it 👌

Even on low heat, it really helps take the chill from my 300 sq ft home office. Fits nicely into the bottom opening of the TV cabinet/credenza. Also, unlike the last faux fireplace heater I had (which is on its way to the trash) this isn't nearly as much of a drain on electricity. There is no detectable "burn" smell like I had with the old heater. The flames are a nice touch and comforting on bad weather days. Cons: no remote control, no thermostat or auto-shut off, and a little loud when the heater is running. But I'm willing to overlook the lack of features because it's the perfect size for my office and it only cost $40. A piece of advice: as with any space heater, don't use an extension cord. Plug directly into a wall outlet.

Got this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it. Uses it all the time. Sometimes just for the fire light effect.

I researched little themed faux fireplace heaters like this for a month before I settled on this (red) one, not expecting much & prepared for it it arrived damaged or break right away, or not heat well. Pleasantly surprised. I use it in my bathroom as a luxury fixture across from the tub so I can have candlelit baths etc. The radiator in my 100 yr-old building was broken in the bathroom so this was perfect. On the low setting, it heats the entire room within minutes. Here’s where it gets nutty. My new landlord flooded me from above letting unskilled workers gut a bathroom & they failed to turn off the water. Flooded so hard that water fountained out of my light fixtures for hours and soaked everything in my bathroom. I was sure this little guy was ruined, it didn’t seem soaked but it did get a bit wet. I ended up using it to help dry out the damage and it worked like a champ. I then used it in my bedroom, still kicked out ample heat. I then moved, so I boxed it in the og box and carried it over to the new place myself to avoid any risk of damage. It did get tossed a bit, so prepared myself for it not to work anymore. Lo and behold, plugged it in and it works like a champ again. My new bathroom has no window so this heater is a saviour. Turns out my bedroom window is very leaky and stuck, it’s been almost 10 degrees here on some nights. Put the heater next to my bed, and literally the entire bedroom gets comfy within 10-15 min. I left it on all night. Am I just one of the lucky ones, I don’t know, but this little thing has been a miracle machine and I’m buying 2 more now for my employer’s condo. Highly recommend, however, if it gets beat down in shipment, you may not get the performance out of that I have. I have never turned it on the high setting and I don’t recommend you do that, either. I like the white noise it provides also, it’s better than my old exhaust fan.

After the last update, not 24 hours later, heater stopped working.Was gonna toss it. Not sure what happened. The heater stopped producing but the fire was on.Thankfully, before taking it to the trash plugged into the wall and boom, it’s working fine.Upon testing several more weeks figured out there must be a shut off mechanism for overheat possibly. The cord shows no signs of overheating. The heater works as normal. Until it doesn’t.I only use during the day because it has no thermostat regulation. The room it’s in gets very toasty. Too much so. At night switch to the OG reliable with a thermostat regulator that keeps the temp perfect for us.I’m glad it isn’t broken. But it’s weird how it dies. Then, given time resurrects itself in its complete glory.With the wild arrival blast of arctic - 30 below rare occurrence for a few weeks was glad the heater decided to return to normal. The daytime was pleasant. But, as the temperature outside improved this little beast is not needed.Despite new windows this old house gets a little chilly indoors when it’s -30 plus below outside windchill.Most of the time no heater is needed.Upon trying this device at night couldn’t stand how warm it was on low.During the day moving around it was helpful on those brisk days that impacted the house overall temp.Read other people complain about the heater. I can understand why now. Though, figuring out it’s a build glitch am glad it still functions once it’s had a chance to cool itself.The plug itself is solid. Didn’t melt or show any signs of difficulty.Minus one start for the inconvenience. But having the older well endowed back up made this discovery a little less troublesome.The other mighty little heater is old. 2016. But has outlasted multiple high end options purchased on Amazon that didn’t last and their shut off was superseded by melted cords. Dangerous.We’re using in a room that’s 144 square feet. Perhaps in a larger room this dragon would be perfect.Originally bought for the largest room redirected to a smaller one this winter.Hope this update is helpful for buyers/ updateHave used this heater almost daily during the day when it’s below 20 degrees outside as this house is from 1900 and a little chill can be felt.Using on the second floor rather than first as originally planned. Found a replacement fireplace for the community room.Trying this in a frequented room to give it a good testing often.Every day check the cord and plug for overheating. Melting. Any signs this heater can’t handle its job.Happy to report not a blemish. This gadget has not thermostat. Runs constantly when plugged in. Despite this I’ve had ZERO issues with it keeping its plug integrity. No overheating.This super affordable tiny giant of a heater out performs more expensive options hands down. After spending hundreds and tossing heater after heater four years in a row we have a winner.I don’t use it at night due to it running constantly. It gets a break through the evening.After a few months of use can recommend this for daytime use. It makes a room with 144 square feet very warm. Does require being turned off when the room reaches a desired temp or it’ll get too toasty despite being on the lowest of two settings.One thing to keep in mind if going off my experience to purchase, quality control. If this company can remain consistent with quality control this is the best heater I’ve found since 2016 and would be a great purchase for anyone.Make sure to do your own checks when using for safety purposes. Do not assume the plug is not overheating just because one customer says theirs did not.Even though this little giant of a heat wave does a wonderful job in this old vintage vibe house does not mean I’m not continuing to ensure it is functioning.This heater is a beast. Highly recommend!/ updateDebated if this would be my selection for 2024. I’ve had issues with portable heaters at every price range in my 1900’s property. New power box and I only buy when a safety is included for overheating. The only heater with zero issues bought at a big box in 2016 is a Comfort Zone. End of season sale.Hard to believe for the price (Daily Deal) this nugget sports a tiny fire place.Thing I didn’t take into account when purchasing, the settings. There’s no thermostat. Just a high and low setting.The flame can be used year round as it is its own setting, first.Once passing it remains on. For me, this device goes in a room that doesn’t interfere with sleep. So the fireplace setting isn’t an issue.Though, I’m also not planning to leave it on if unattended despite having the emergency safety to turn off if it over heats.Why? No thermostat or means of controlling temperature. For the price and room when planning to use is not an issue. But, if I was using during extreme cold weather to off set the chill in a room would use thermostat lead only.This doesn’t lose stars for me. The price point, functionality, and as others note, cute fireplace feature are a win.If there are any issues during use will be back with an update.So far, in the past three years I’ve returned one heater and tossed three expensive, over a $100 price tags, for the plug beginning to melt, despite there was suppose to be the overheat safety mechanism.I always check the cords regularly if it’s brisk out to ensure continued function. Not trusting a product will always do what it says.For $30 am willing to take the risk on a heater used on occasion. Not continued brisk weather use.One notable option I’m very happy about, when the heater is on, if ya put your hand on the floor in front of the device, it’s cold. The heat blows up. Which is appropriate. Though, I’m amazed at how well this heater maintains its airflow up and out. As the base is so close to the floor am happy it functions so safely. Leaving the floor or in my case sturdy stand cool and not impacted by the heat being expelled forward.Would I rebuy, it’ll depend on how this one functions. Hoping like the other this still works seven years later like the Comfort Zone version that’s worked for eight years.In regards to noise, both heat settings produce hum. If your expectation is zero noise, turn up your house heat. Even this, if you have a gas furnace like me produces noise. If your expectation is a low hum in the background like brown noise or a fan type sound, this could work, for you.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Small. Sturdy. Safe. Live in canada so it will get tested this winter. Love the design and the flame is realistic and comforting. Can be used without the fan. Fan is only slightly audible. Does not distract me while watching tv. Very pleased and love the design.

Installed in my camper, adds a nice cozy touch of warmth and really looks nice. Something about a flame [though fake] that makes us fell warm and secure. This is my 2nd unit to buy, I am giving this as a gift to my friends who just bought a trailer, wishing them happy trails.
