We were looking for a low profile, narrow fan with a small footprint and this Lasko Tower seemed to be perfect for our needs. The options of operation were a large selling point for this heater, with a Hi/Lo setting, timer, oscillation, temperature control and a remote control. All of these options/settings exceeded our expectations, however, I took away one star for what I consider to be a very weak fan. In order to actually "feel" the warm air, the heater must be very close - about 3 feet away.

Love it! The base took a bit of getting used to but once I secured it it was wonderful. It is only the fall but so far it is doing everything I wanted it to. My only criticism is that it blows air. It would have been nice to have an option to have a fan option.

I bought this because the one I bought 4 years ago has been such amazing heat and quiet with a slimline space saving style. The model I have isn't offered here so I got one very close in the same brand. The first time I used it the smell was very toxic and strong. The other didnt do that at all. I figured the toxic new smell would burn off use or two but it was unusually unbearable and after an hour and tons of ventillation for the "burn off" I needed to remove it from the room. Today I turned it on in open air outside for 45minutes and it's not a bit less strong. My voice became very hoarse a couple of hours later yesterday and it has been deeply effected and only tonight is it beginning to clear some. It is definitely faulty and Id be afraid to try another. Poor quality control with that model.

Absolutely perfect. Our den gets cold in the winter and this heater was perfect to help take the chill out of the room. We love the remote. We were able to turn it off after a few minutes except when the whole day was below freezing, I highly recommend. We bought it on sale and kept the box to store.

Purchased two of them, I am impressed with how great they work. Unlike my old one these the fan comes on every hour to circulate the air when set on automatic control. I realized it was to circulate the air so if had a correct reading on the present temperature of the area it was setting in. Have one at each in of the living room one come on heating the air and blowing cold air toward the other one. When it goes off the other one will come on except this time it is sending hot air back the other directions. So, far it has to be below 45 degrees out side for both to come on close to each other.

Other reviews said this item had a horrible smell (like burning plastic). That did go away after using it a bit. I'd recommend turning it on outside or in a garage for the first use to get the smell out of it before using it inside the house. It heated very well, but the base should be bigger to make it more stable. It hasn't tipped over but is very unstable if you bump into it. The one thing I was disappointed with was it didn't have a fan only setting. It wouldn't have been hard to make a switch that turned the heat on and off so you could use it as a regular fan in the summer. Every other tower heater I have, has a fan only setting so I never bothered to check for that.

What a deal. I bought another heater first from Home Depot at twice the price of this one and it gave off little heat - I am so happy Sam’s had this in stock for pick up. It literally saved my family when our heater went out during the epic Christmas cold this year. It got super hot, has a remote and oscillates!

Unit was easy to assembly and seemed well made. The package had obviously been opened and returned because all the plastic bags various pieces were in were opened. Heat did not project into room adequately. It needs a fan or if it had a fan it was faulty. Returned item.

Very poor!!! A new electric heater always smells a little for about 10 minutes or so when you first run it that's normal burning off some dust and such but this on stinks! I ran it twice in my garage for 30 minutes at least and it smelled up the whole room a really pungent awful smell. I've had lasko heaters purchased quite a while ago and they were fine, still operating . I dont know whats going on with this one or possibly the company's manufacturing techniques but I'm returning it and I won't buy any more lasko heaters in the future !

This little heater looks classy, takes up very little space, and blasts out the heat. After getting one for my son, I liked it so much, I got two for myself. One for my sitting area in the living room and one for the bath area. Lasko is just the best!
