Very nice
Would RecommendI really like it. I believe it will provide enough hot water for 3-4 people. It is a short water heater and it fixes well in the crawl space. Thus, I am very pleased.

It's a good water heater
Would RecommendI like the size of this product. It's 38 gallons so it's perfect for my family size and it fit in my crawl space under the house.

Great purchase great customer service
Would RecommendI needed a low profile water heater for a crawl space. Lowe’s was the only big box store to carry it out of the top three contenders. Worked with customer service to get the no interest for twelve months. Work out great in an otherwise stressful situation replacing the water heater on very short notice.
