Mosquitos love me for some reason and we places this on the porch and I was able to enjoy the lawn chairs for over an hour without a bite from a mosquito.

Was excited to purchase this product to use while out in the garden. Used it about three times and it stopped working, it no longer showed the orange glow light indicating that it was on. I was within 30 days and able to get a full refund.

I can’t say enough about these products. I purchased several different styles of these repellants. We had a trip planned for the North woods of WI and wanted to be able to enjoy outside with layering my skin with chemicals. I really didn’t think they would work, boy was I proven wrong. After the first night our family dubbed the protected area as “The circle of trust”. As long as you were in the radius of the Thermacells no flying bugs of any kind. Walk away from the circle of trust, you were fair game for the war of human and mosquito. The mosquitos were out almost all day, so the circle of trust or a single unit would travel from cabin to cabin, while on a walk or fishing from the pier. I did purchase twice as many as recommended for a 40 square foot area. We had 17 in our group for that week in WI. Not one bite on anyone as long as they were near a Thermacel unit. They REALLY WORK!

We recently were given a Thermacell Patio Shield and we immediately tried it out on our patio from 6PM to almost midnight! There were 5 people hanging out around it and no one was bothered by mosquitos! We can see from the pad that we have more time left to use it before it turns all white. We are very impressed and happy with this device. We were unaware prior to getting this that our friends up in Northern Maine swear by their Thermacell for all their outdoor summer activities! Don't hesitate to purchase one and give it a try!

I have the old patio lanterns and bought this recently. It looks much nicer on my patio table and is easier to operate as far as switching the butane cartridge and the ignition. On the old lantern, it was hard for some people to get their fingers in the slots to open the bottom to change the cartridge. This model is much easier as you unscrew the base. It works just as well as all Thermacell products I've tried which are the only things that keep the mosquitos off of me, except for spray-on repellant, which I'd rather not use constantly. I love the design and that there is a lid, so I can leave it outside even if its raining, which happens most afternoons in our part of Florida.

I do a great deal of outside work....especially at night. I really dislike the oily sprays that attract more dirt than they repel mosquitoes. I purchased a Thermacell and I'm a customer for life! This is the best, reliable product in a very long time that really works.

We rec'd & tested yesterday. Mosquitos were in the shop, & biting, until we lit it. The dogs & we were unmolested afterwards. Convenient features: A free-standing unit; mat storage in the barrel of the unit; weatherproof; same lighting mechanism as the hunting Thermacells. I'm sold!

I bought this a couple months ago and thought that I'd take a chance - that it might end up with all my other ineffective repellents - in the trash - but was tired of being eaten alive by mosquitoes so it was worth a chance. I AM SO GLAD I DID! I carry this little bugger with me every where I go. I NEVER has mosquito bites when I use this. I just bought a huge pack of refills so I'm prepared for the rest of the season. I even sent one to a friend who complained she could not get any use of her patio because of mosquitoes. She was thrilled with it too.

I live in the south where its hot and humid. Perfect for pesky mosquitoes. This device is amazing and covers a big area. Now we can sit out side at night and relax instead of fighting the Jurassic mosquitoes in south Florida. Iykyk. Now we grill and enjoy summer nights out doors more. We love it.

I’m on the edge of woods with a stream running through. We have standing water when it rains. When I take the dog out I feel like I’m eaten alive as soon as I open the door. I bought one of these devices and have been sitting on my back deck for 1/2 hour and not a bite. this is amazing and I hope it lasts because I’m sold at this point. I wish I could find one that covers a larger area for the pool area.
