My daughter had a similar unit she purchased from Walmart and it had her kitchen warm and cozy one day. I searched Walmart and although they had units that were similar, they didn’t have very good reviews.
I purchased this because I have Prime and the weather was changing to cold.
I purchased 2, one for living area where my 5 dogs lay and one for the kitchen/dining area which is huge and gets cold.
You can place it on the floor or on a table. Unit sits steadily and secure on its base, so placed on a table top is not a safety hazard unless the table is not sturdy. There is not an open or visble (glowing red grill) heating element but it sure puts out heat. It had an indicator light that stays on to let you know it’s plugged in until you unplug it.
Two knobs, one for adjusting whether you want it to run constantly or intermittently (to keep the room at the same temperature, once it is achieved–it will switch on to run and once the temp is achieved, it shuts off temporarily). One knob sets whether you just want the blower fan running or heater on and at what intensity. Center flip switch controls if you want the unit to oscillate or not.
It is a tad noisy when running but that’s what the volume controls on stereos and tvs are for, right?
One unit will not heat a whole house, however if you have a 9×12 room and it runs until it heats the room up, it will keep the room warm. I can also see it doing a great job as an under the desk heater for legs and feet in a cold work area.
It doesn’t appear that it would be a fire hazard unless one deliberately puts the unti behind a curtain, tablecloth or puts these fabrics on top of the unit. It does not shut itself off until manually turned off. There also is no warning buzz to let you know something is too close.
Used responsibly this unit will do the job and you will be safe.

I’ve had it for about 2 weeks. It definitely heats, but doesn’t keep a constant temperature. After adjusting it every day for a week, I decided to keep it at a certain setting. The temp will range from 74 to 79. Not too bad, but that’s why I gave it a 4. Time will tell how long it will last.

My reason for giving 4 stars instead of 3 is because this thing kept the underneath of my trailer from freezing. My 5th wheel was insulated underneath but it needed help. I plugged this in on timer and it worked wonders. The last 5 months it has been the heater for my shed to cabin house. Everything it’s been through I think it did well for 15 months. I just tossed it because it started making a funky noise with some smoke coming out.

Was sceptical with the price and the praise. Bought it and I agree to all the praise it has gotten. It’s good enough to warm up a small room in very short span of time but may not ne sufficient for a lounge. However if it’s kept close by it would keep you warm for sure.

Heater is amazing and easy to transport. I always bring it back and forth between my apartment and my office. Quality is really good and works well and super fast.

This little heater works well and produces heat very quickly. The rotating aspect is also a big benefit! Well done!

It’s a little chilly coming out of the shower on a winter morning and this remedies that. The size is great, fitting nicely between the two sinks on the vanity. It looks good, too, and the handle makes moving it easy. Heats up very fast. I plug it in and immediately it generates heat. The various settings make it versatile and the optional oscillating setting works well directing the heat around the room. I set it on high and oscillating and by the time I step out of the shower, the room is a nice, toasty warm. It’s size and portability make it perfect for using it in other areas of the house if needed. It’s a nice backup in the event the furnace malfunctions. This will provide warmth and comfort in a room until the furnace is repaired.
UPDATE: April 2021. Four years later and it’s still running like it did when new. Instant heat, smooth oscillating, fully functioning fan. This was a great purchase. Highly recommend it.
UPDATE: I’ve had this for three years and it is working exactly as it was when new. Highly recommend.

I bought this several years ago and it’s still works like new! I use it all winter as supplemental heat, mainly in the bathroom, and it doesn’t take much to make the room hot. It heats up fast, too. I’ve had others in the past that wore out or weren’t powerful enough. For the price, I didn’t go wrong.

Llevo algunos días usandolo y me ha parecido una buena compra, pequeño como una bocina y nada pesado que puedes cargar y guardar fácil, los botones son faciles de usar; tiene ventilador de aire frío, perfecto para refrescar un poco, de ahí sigue el 1er y 2do nivel de calefacción, el otro botón es para medir la intensidad del termostato y para su precio y tamaño, calienta muy bien, incluso una habitación grande. Tambien cuenta con un botón de oscilación.
El sonido que produce es minimo, hace mas ruido un microondas o un ventilador convencional. Nada que perturbe el sueño incluso de un bebé.

So far a great gift! Towards the end of January was my wife’s birthday and I was looking to get her a small portable heater that she could easily transport from one room to the next based on her needs. Larger heaters can be quite bulky and do not make for easy transport. Though larger heaters do put out more heat. However, buying a ceramic heater is on the lower end of heaters available for purchase. There are kerosene heaters and propane heaters that make for heating rooms, garages, etc., almost instantly. However, they are not very practical.
This is actually the second Oscillating ceramic fan I have purchase for her birthday. The first was VanHaus version. They are almost identical in the pictures but the Lasko is slightly more. The VanHaus broke on us in a matter of days and if you are interested you can see my critique of it if you are trying to pinch a few pennies. However, I highly recommend the Lasko version.
This review is based on the superiority of the Lasko fan vs. the VanHaus version. First, the Lasko came in packaging that did not allow for the fan to break when it is being shipped. I removed the Lasko heater from the box and noticed immediately that I had purchased a better product. It’s handle was more firm indicating great craftsmanship. The knobs are clearly marked. The thermostat was clearly marked with white circles. The larger the white circle the hotter the thermostat setting. The VanHaus does not have a clearly marked thermostat. One difference I did notice that puts the VanHaus before the Lasko heater is the Oscillation. The Lasko does not oscillate as wide as the VanHaus. However, after further contemplating this oscillation degree less just might be best. It allows for more of a central focus on an individual vs. heating a small room. A personal heater is exactly what my wife wanted; she did not want a room heater. If someone wants a room heater they should try the larger and more bulky heaters that are left in a room or secured permanently.
So far, the Lasko heater is far superior in quality, durability, and craftsmanship. This heater is highly recommended for those looking for a personal heater that is light, durable, and easy to transport.
