I had to take the first unit back for a replacement. First one would only stay on for about a second or two, I could still hear the gas but the light would extinguish almost right away. The new unit was placed on the patio for about a half hour and when we came out the light was off. It took quite a few tries before the light would come on, this time I left the top off and it seemed to stay on. We'll see if it keeps the mosquitoes away. So I'm not sure yet.

We purchased this product about a month ago for our small patio to be used during our Sunday cookout. It does what it was purchased to do, keep the bugs at bay. We are satisfied, would like to look at a larger unit, and would recommend your line of products to aquaintances, friends, and family. Anthony Pitts

I was was really excited to give this a try(The 15ft zone) so that my youngest would be able to enjoy outside without getting but up as he is a bit allergic to mosquitoes and can't really enjoy without getting sprayed down, but It honestly did not work. Once we sat it nice and high, made sure it was lit and staying on and waited to see if it would work we did notice a slight decrease in them but they were still pretty much biting us and we were hoping for a mosquitoe free zone, we've only been able to try a few times due to weather but we will try once more and who knows maybe 3rd time is a charm :)

The mosquitoes literally landed on the device. I left it running for over half an hour and even had a mosquito come right up into my face and land on my nose sitting 1 foot from the device. Awful waste of money that I hope I can find a way to get back.

This product was used while car camping. It was very easy to used and look pretty on the table. I would not hesitate to use this for a backyard picnic. I love that it came with multiple refills. Overall, I thought this was a great value. It worked well to keep the mosquitoes away. There was no weird odor. I would buy again.

I've had this patio shield for a few weeks and I must say that this device works! The mosquitos leave me and my family alone. With the temperatures rising and rainy days coming, the mosquitos are coming out full force. With the patio shield it creates roughly a 15 ft diameter shield that the mosquitos avoid. I can tell it's working as when I walk away from the patio shield, the mosquitos start to bite. I may look to purchase a portable thermacell in the future.

The patio shield mosquito protector did a great job keeping away the nasty mosquitoes that are always drawn to me, eating me alive as I sit outside on my camper patio. The amount of mosquitoes decreased tremendously making it so much nicer for me to be able to sit out without having to be sprayed from head to toe with repellent. Although a rogue one or two would get me, this product decreased the presence of the several dozen that usually are out there attacking me. Living in hot, humid Florida, this thermacell is a must have! Thank you for making it more enjoyable for me to sit outside!

I bought this about a week ago and have used it over the last couple of days for camping. It worked great the first day and a half and now it won’t stay lit. I’ve tried changing the tank and the mat but nothing seems to be working. Sometimes it will stay lit for a bit but it doesn’t last long

This product works great! I use it on my deck and in my gazebo area! Finally able to use the outdoor space! Nothing better espresso in these times where most of us are quarantined, its nice to know I came enjoy my outdoor space without being eaten alive! Well done Thermacell

I bought this product a week ago. It’s definitely a quick relief for a small patio. To me it uses the butane too quick. I used it Twice for a total of 4 hours and used the refill mosquito repellent pads. Not worth it because we live in the country and need something for a larger area.
