I first heard about Thermacell about 20 years ago while hunting in lowstate South Carolina. Some other hunters told me of this device that kept the hoards of the swamp mosquitoes away. They told me I could buy one at a local gas station, where I went and bought it. To my amazement after I started using it, I was no longer lunch for these pesky bugs. I have since bought more over the years and just purchased 2 more. 1 for myself and 1 for my son who hunts with me. If you don’t have one, you need one.

Read the reviews but still was not a believer. I purchased the MR300 hunt pack to try on a upcoming fishing trip to Canada. Had it with me when I was in one of the National Forests in MN to check out a remote trout lake. Had my lantern burning with citronella and cedar fuel yet the mosquitos were still super thick. Went to the truck, opened the Thermacell box, installed the fuel and pad, turned it on and one click the unit started heating up. Within 10 minutes there was not a mosquito around me. When I would walk out of it's range, I would be covered with them again. Once back in town I told 36 friends, family, and coworkers about it. Since that time, at least 18 of those people have purchased them. Great product. Get yourself a couple.

This thermacell, is not even a year old ,and it has quit working I have one of the first generation and it’s still going strong.seems like these new ones are junk. And of course unfortunately I don’t have the receipt anymore. I have recommended thermacell in the past to people but if they keep building junk like this I don’t think I’m going to anymore.

My wife and I have been using thermocel for a few years now and we couldn’t hunt without them. We hunt a swampy area and the mosquitoes attack us the minute we get out of the Polaris. We turn on the thermocel and within minutes they are gone. We love the units

I purchased this a couple of weeks ago and I could not be more pleased and satisfied! Don’t think about it just buy it and don’t thank me thank thermacell! I’ve tried citronella candles, tiki torches, the bands you wear, the green rings you burn, sprayed bleach mixture all with initial effects however the mosquitoes had become impervious to such attempts...this MR300 device has been 100% effective on every occasion I have used it and I didn’t have a small problem either, they had become so bad I would have to stop working and go inside as nothing would control them. Thank you whoever you are wherever you are to the people who invented this!

Great product for hunting. I always take a back-up with me on each hunting trip. Love the new switch vs the dial. Only downfall I see is they put a blue swish and bold white letters saying "THERMACELL" on a camo holster. Got a feeling some marketing genius that never went in the woods came up with this idea.

I live in a rural area in Northern Ontario and started a large garden this year. Well, between the deep woods, black earth, manure and what not, the blackflies were simply outrageous, making it an unpleasant trip to the garden even with my mesh jacket/hood and deeting myself up on the legs (I can’t stand deet but want to wear shorts while gardening). I purchased the MR300 and WOW, unbelievable difference, it really works – and works on blackflies!, it works so well I can honestly say, my gardening has been saved by technology. Awesome product, I don’t give out 5 stars at the drop of a hat but the MR300 gets that, it works that well and is so easy to use.

I bought this hoping I could go out and garden without wearing long sleeves and long pants. NOPE.....I have too many mosquito bites to count. I felt the heat off of the unit and the orange light was on but if the unit was working it did NOTHING for me.

I’ve been a staunch Thermacell supporter and customer for years. My original portable unit finally quit working. I LOVED MY THERMACELL! It worked and performed perfectly. Bugs didn’t want anything to do with me. I don’t know why it died because there’s not much to them. It would light up then die immediately. So I bought 3 new ones. The new design sucks! PERIOD! I bought a new 2 years ago and it never worked from the start. I had it on my yearly 10 day deer hunting trip. I got so mad at it I threw it against a tree! I HATE the new design. The detachable clip is the dumbest design I’ve seen. I’m very disappointed. I hope it actually stays running. At least the bugs won’t bother me even if the new design is junk.

Mosquitos love me. I have one of these and an older 150, I use them whenever camping in Dubai, UAE and in the woods of Wisconsin. They really got tested to the max when I was making a wildlife documentary in the bush in Chad, Africa. When in a Malaria-rich, remote locations for weeks on end, you need a product that you can rely on. They worked a dream. When one ran out of gas- unknown to me, we were set upon by mosquitos. As soon as I replaced the canister, they were off ! Great customer service too.
