Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this heater to warm up my bedroom (roughly 9' x 12') as it's getting cold out but my landlord refuses to turn on the heat. I'll try to give a descriptive review here. The heater has three settings: fan, low, and high. The fan setting just provides circulation while the low and high settings provide heat. The heater also has a thermostat so you can set the amount of warmth you want to maintain the the room. The thermostat isn't *super* accurate, but you get the hang of it after a few uses. Nothing to complain about. I usually keep the heater under my desk and turn it on on the low setting when I start doing homework in the evenings. This works out best for me because it delivers heat directly to my feet and legs (which feels amazing) while also warming up the room in general. On the low setting, it takes about 30-60 minutes to fully warm up the room and on the high setting it takes about half as long. This heater is not large enough or powerful enough to effectively heat up a larger space, like a living room or dining room. I think it is best suited for small to medium sized bedrooms and bathrooms. The one downside is that it does not have an auto-off safety feature that turns the heater off when it is moved. So if you have small children or pets that might knock over a heater sitting on the ground, you might want to look into a different heater. However, if you're an adult and you're not stupid about how you operate electrical equipment, you'll be fine. As far as noise level goes, I have no complaints. The fan does make some noise, but no more than expected/necessary. I would not describe it as "loud" and, once it's operating, you barely notice it. All in all: if you want a personal heater that can heat up a small to medium sized room, buy this heater. It is well worth the under-20-dollar price tag. It's small, unobtrusive, and gets the job done.
