   Buen producto, me encanto.
   Funciona bien y lo utilice bastante en tiempo de frío, el que se apague solo cuando calienta demasiado ayuda a evitar accidentes si te quedas dormido.

   *Scroll to bottom for 9 year update!*

   Purchased five of these four years ago, during winter 2011. My wife and I live in NYC, the apartment we lived in at the time had issues with the heating system. The landlord and I worked out a deal so I may purchase these and he’d cover the expenses (I get to keep them), including the difference on the electric bill. We lived in a large second floor four bedroom apartment.

   The heat emitted from these are wonderful and the automatic setting keeps each room you have one in extremely comfortable. After having moved from the apartment gave 2 back to the landlord which, he left in the apartment for the next tenants (new tenants are friends of mine and love the heaters). In my new apartment I still use one of the three heaters in addition to the apartments heating system to keep it comfortable at all times. Lent one to a friend of my wife’s who’s heating went out while landlord was away for a few days and she loved it – preferred it over the regular heating system. She asked if she may keep it for longer and kept it for a few months until she decided to purchase one.

   You may use one in a large room and it works extremely well. In our previous apartment the master bedroom was huge. It was big enough to fit a queen size bed (could’ve easily fit a king), with entire bedroom set, two large wardrobe closets, a long full-size sofabed, desk with chair, and a chest of drawers – no it didn’t look crowded and yes still had plenty space to spare – yes it really was in NYC.

   Four years of use and the heaters still work just as well as the first day. Extremely energy efficient, doesn’t make a big difference on the electric bill. We keep it on the automatic temperature setting so it turns on once it reaches below a specific setting. Even when it stays on for long periods of time doesn’t make much of a dent on the electric bill.

   9 Year Update:
   My original review was written in 2015 (4 years after purchasing), this was my first winter in current apartment. After writing the review we decided to stop using the apartments heating system and fully switch back to using these heaters as we did in our previous apartment. The apartment uses steam radiators (just like previous apartment) and we originally figured it would work out using it here better than in our previous apartment. It did heat the apartment much better than the previous one, however it heated the apartment a bit too much. The amount of steam and heat even if turned down extremely low, was unbearable – plus it would randomly start emitting a loud banging noise (like someone hammering on the metal pipes within the walls) every so often which was extremely annoying especially in the middle of the night. We decided to turn the steam radiators completely off and started strictly using the Lasko heaters again. Two winters later, in 2017 two of the three heaters died out and completely stopped working in the beginning of winter – they lasted 7 long years without weakening or any other issues. We replaced them with two of the same exact heaters. The third heater is now 9 years old and it worked just as well as the two newer heaters during the last two winters (remainder of 2017 and all of 2018). We did purchase a Dyson fan/heater in summer of 2017 and then again in summer of 2018, as well as a small tabletop Lasko heater (also an extremely amazing heater by Lasko) which we placed on the bathroom windowsill. We do now also use them in addition to the three Lasko heaters, but only purchased them because we wanted to have the ability to keep the three Lasko heaters at significantly lower settings while still maintaining the desired apartment temperature. Since we also wanted to add fans for warmer weather, we decided it made sense to purchase all in one device’s to not have to have two fans plus two extra heaters as we don’t have much space for storage. While we also like the Dyson devices, the Lasko heaters by far outperform the heat from the Dyson devices. The Dyson devices do have the pros of being cool to the touch and children cannot burn themselves with it, plus it has a wide angle setting which emits the heat for a whole section as opposed to only being directional. Either way, the Lasko heaters heat a room while only being directional and obviously last without losing strength for years to come. The Dyson devices seem to lose strength after continuous days of use and need to be powered off for a few hours every once in a while, and the first one purchased had completely stopped emitting heat on the fourth or fifth month of use. It may have been defective as once replaced neither of the two Dysons stopped emitting heat and hopefully last as well as the Lasko heaters – especially since they are by far significantly more expensive.

   Hope the original review and this update help others who are looking to make a decision on whether or not it’s worth the purchase.

   Fyi, my friends (mentioned in original review) still have the ones we left for them in our previous apartment and they are also still going strong – which means 2 devices lasted 7 years, and then 9 years and 9 NY winters later the other 3 are still going strong. For less than $80 – you seriously can’t go wrong!

   I bought one of these last year to put in my bedroom because I live on a three-floor townhome and the termostat is on the second floor. My bedroom is very large and the little heater did a great job warming it up. So I decided to get a couple more heaters, one for the guest bedroom and one for my basement office. They did such a great job and made my energy bill so much lower that I brought the guest room heater to the living room and turned off the central heat.

   This year, I went to a store and saw them at a lower price, so I went ahead and bought another one to put back in the guest bedroom. They are really great because not only do they have remote controls, but they also have an auto setting, so you can program the temperature you want and just leave it on. Programming is as easy as pushing a button to set it higher or another one to set it lower, and the heater thermostat makes sure the room stays at about the temperature you set. This product is so good that two of my friends went ahead and bought some for their houses after they came over and I told them about how happy I am with them!

   Here are my thoughts on this product:

   PROS
   – light and easy to carry around if you want to move it from one room to another
   – durable, the ones I bought a year ago work as great as they did when I bought them
   – convenient and easy to use remote control
   – easy to use digital control on the unit
   – automatic temperature setting
   – heats up the space quickly, even larger rooms
   – does not use much electricity
   – nice design, easy on the eyes
   – cheap and small enough that you can get one for each room of your place
   – for multi-floored homes, if working with central heaters it will help level the heat throughout the place

   CONS
   – after thinking a lot, I realized that the only con is that you have to be careful where you store the remote control during the summer. I had put the ones that are in rooms where there are drawers in the drawers, but can’t remember where I put the remote for the unit in my living room. So, if you purchase this during the cold months, come up with a system for storing the remotes at a place you will remember by the time it gets cold again next year.

   UPDATE: When the temperature gets really low outside (teens through low 20th’s) I do turn on my central heater to help with the larger area of my place (living and dining rooms that are open together). So, if you live in a colder region and have larger areas with big windows or sliding doors, one of these heaters may not be enough to keep such areas toasty. Although, if it is a larger area that has heavy curtains helping insulate it, etc, then it may be all you need (ie: my bedroom is 15 x 12 and this little heater handles all that is needed to keep the room warm, and the finished part of my basement that has only a window–not a large glass sliding door like the living room– can also be kept really nice and warm with just one of these heaters running in it).

   Enjoy your warm home!

   Lo recibí rápido y se “ve” de muy buena calidad. Llevo usándolo unos días y muy bien. Fácil de usar y calienta rápido y bien. Lo único es que hace un poco de ruido, pero nada molesto.

   I believe this was my 3rd winter with this heater. After buying two name brands and having them stop working after a year. I decided to give this brand a try. This has been going strong for its 3rd winter and will probably last another 2 or 3. Really happy with this purchase and will most likely purchase again (from the same manufacturer) when it does finally stop working.

   Excellent quality for the money. Works very well. Shuts off when room is at desired, set temperature. Oscillates for better heat distribution. Quiet operation. Bought two for my 1150 sq ft home and it is very efficient at heating my space. In fact, so far I’ve only needed to use one heater to keep my place comfortable. Very pleased with this purchase. Would highly recommend this item.
