I ordered it for curbside pick up, and low, and behold, the person who got it for me, could obviously tell that it was a damaged box, yet,, brought it out to me anyway. I took it home and opened it anyway, and just like I thought, it was all dented up on the top. I took it back to the store and told them that they need to send somebody back to get me one that’s not damaged, but, they had me go hunt for it instead. I got it through curbside service for a reason.

Just right and very safe
I bought this for my office to keep my feet warm while I work. I love it - it heats nicely, thermostatic control works great, and it can het a much bigger area than my am using it for. Also is very safe and will turn off as soon as it's tipped even a little bit. Highly recommended!

Do not recommend
Purchased November 2025. It no longer works. It never worked well and was used sparingly in a restroom (we live in Louisiana). Didn't heat very well.
Not bad of a heater but very sensitive to position
For a small heater, it's not bad. Not sure if it really puts out 1500 watts though. I bought this to help dry out a small trailer (had a water leak from the recent rains) and there was enough heat to dry things out with the aid of a box fan. One thing I did notice is that the tilt safety switch is VERY sensitive; meaning, the heater must be almost perfectly 90 degrees to the horizon. My trailer had a slight tilt which prevented the heater from turning on. A simple adjustment to the leveling jack...
