I purchased this product for personal use. I also purchased the product as a gift. The product does not effectively repel mosquito's. It may have some benefit - but I can sit the device next to me on a table and mosquito's still find me and bite me. Disappointed in the product.

Been using my new E55 Thermacell Rechargeable Mosquito Repeller for a couple weeks, works great in small areas. 20 x 20 or so. If wind is blowing doesn't work as well. Leaves no odors or smoke.Just like no one would no it is there. Would like to get more for party's or camping. Would buy again.

I spent a lot of time searching for the best mosquito repellent for my backyard and I kept seeing that Thermacell was ranked the best option. I ended up buying the rechargeable one and used it (fully charged) last night and it offered absolutely zero coverage f from mosquitos. I kept telling my guests, “oh it takes a few minutes to kick in”, and “it offers a 20 ft shield from mosquitos”. None of that happened. Mosquitos were up in our face, biting us all night long. I gave it a second chance tonight…same thing. My guests ended going inside because they could not stand it. Terrible product - will not buy again or recommend it.

I recently bought this device I'm impressed with how well it works however the cartridges are not full therefore usage time is short. The price for the refills are ridiculous you can buy a whole new system but still end up with same results usage time too short.

Thermacell makes devices that work like diffusers, using heat to vaporize a small amount of insecticide into the air to create a bug-free zone. The active chemical is either metofluthrin or allethrin, which in numerous studies have proved to be effective spatial repellents for mosquitoes lightweight, ultra-portable Thermacell Backpacker mosquito repeller and it actually works. Here's why we love it.

Going out in the evenings usually means I am covered in big repellent or becoming a buffet for the mosquitos. I tried the Thermacell E55 in graphite and was able to enjoy my backyard patio without being bitten or needing extra bug repellent on my skin. There was no scent and no noise from the machine I only wish it came with two repellent pods instead of one stop that I could enjoy it longer before needing to run out for a refill.

My family and I used it when we had a picnic in the backyard and I am very satisfied with this product. We sat at the table and the kids were in the yard running around and no one had any mosquito bites. I think it’s great for backyards or the poolside because if it dies, all I have to do is plug it up.

This little repellant worked like a charm. We ate outside up in the woods of Wisconsin. Not only did no one in our group get a bug bite, they didn't even know I was using the little repellant. Definately a must use for any outdoor activities where the bugs are wild!

Living in Florida we are always outside. This was awesome to use in the backyard to let the kids play after sun goes down and they get bad. I loved the fact that it is rechargeable and doesn't stink like sprays and candles, etc. Only reason it didn't get 5 stars is that the refills can get a bit pricy if you are outdoors a lot during summer or camping.

I went on a camping trip in Yosemite National Park this past summer to test this product out. I tested this repellent and it worked better than I had expected. I turned it on and within 15minutes the mosquitoes and flying insects were only hovering on top of me instead of biting me. The unit itself is not too expensive but the refills are a bit pricey. The refills will give you 36hrs of protection against mosquitoes so to me I think it’s worth the price.
