In house testing shows our heaters are 38% more efficient then forced air electric, 66% more efficient then propane and 45% more efficient then electric baseboard. Our Infrared Heater only uses up to 1500 watts which is no more than a common hair dryer!

Last winter, I owned a Lifesmart heater that was nearly $250.00. It was good, but did not have a timer that allowed the heater to turn on before I get out of bed or before I get home from work. Also, the heater I had a year ago was one of those bigger box heaters. On this site, some guy does a video review where he takes one of the bigger box heaters apart (to prove a point about the quartz), but what it shows is how much space is wasted inside the heater! There must be a thought process out there, where a bigger heater MUST deliver more and better heat. Not true, as this heater proves.This heater is compact and delivers the same, if not more heat than the Lifesmart I owned last year. It is encased in hard plastic, but always remains cool to the touch. It easily and quickly adds the needed heat to my apartment allowing me to save on propane. Sure, as mentioned in another review, it beeps when you change the controls. But you know what else beeps? My microwave, my coffee maker, my washer and dryer...the list goes on and on.I love that there are THREE power levels, with a super-saving feature that turns on when the thermostat reaches 68ºF. This heater DOES have the great timer that turns the heat on before I get up and before I get home. LOVE IT! Also, it's a perfectly compact size.After going through SEVERAL Lasko heaters, and the uber-expensive Lifesmart that I bought (and returned) last year, this is by far the best heater I have ever owned for my purposes and would definitely buy another one just like it if I needed it. Also, shipping and delivery was extremely prompt and courteous from this seller (VM Innovations).

Unit seems to work well for the bedroom we are heating (12 x 14). We are heating the room to 76-78 degrees for my elderly father. No complaints.

First, it's infared, which I'd not used before. It does "feel" warmer, sitting in front of it when on compared to radiant heaters and seems to warm the room more. Second, and very important to me, when this heater is on I know exactly how much it's costing me to run it, unlike my former oil radiator heater. When running on low at 1000 watts it's using 1 KWh per hour, so because I know I'm paying a total of 11 cents per KWh I can completely control my bill. No more unpleasant "bill" surprises, it's my clear choice. What you cannot do with this heater is choose to run it at a 500 watt setting. There are NOT three power setting choices. When used on the ECO setting it will cycle through 500-1000-1500 watts ONLY after the room temp reaches the factory minimum ECO setting temp of 68 degrees or more. Meaning, the heater may/could run indefinitely on 1500 watts. I wish I had the choice of a lower thermostat setting with ECO. And I wish the timer could be set to BOTH turn the heater on and then after a number of hours turn it off; which cannot be done. The timer will only turn it on OR when already on, turn it off. The fan is powerful for this heater's size and quiet. There is what might be an annoying beep when the heater turns on or off from the timer setting which doesn't bother me (7 younger siblings, I learned to tune out everything I don't need to hear). As other reviewers have noted, all electric heaters use KWh,s to heat. This heater is giving me more direct warmth and control over my cost than other heater types. I would've given it 5 stars if it actually did have a 500 watt setting and especially if the timer turned it both on and then off. It was on sale for $80, which I think is an excellent price for this. I've been using this heater daily now for almost one month in Jan.-Feb. weather, approx. 28* lows-51* highs. Today it's been 33*-35* for about 24hrs. and an ice storm is dropping thick, sleety rain, the heater is working wonderfully and I sure hope my electricity (only heat) stays on. I do recommend this heater.
