Very versatile

I had the Lasko 32" which is currently cheaper than this one here but the 32" was always blowing air in a direction that I didn't like. This smaller version can rotate in any direction up-down, left-right and you can use the remote control to pause it to warm your hands, then use the remote control again to rotate it to warm your feet with a different temperature if you want and it's way quieter than the 32". No wonder why there is a discount on the 32" that makes it cheaper than this small one but the 32" cannot do everything this one does. The only downside of this small heater is that it can't blow hot air on both your feet and heat like the 32" version. You just have to let it rotate and harm your feet and then your head. It works best for a single person use in an office or small room. It can't be used to blow natural air like a fan. It is just a heater. Another Cons is that Lasko heaters don't last long like their normal fans. I had 2 Lasko heaters for the past 2 years from Sam's club competitor that y'all know, and they didn't last long. This one here, I added an extended warranty for few extra box. You can do the same if you want to keep it for many years.

good enough

It heats up great, moves left-right-up-down great. The temperature setting to turn it off is in no way accurate. At 50 degrees it shows 75 degrees so don't use that option ( It help's it sell though I guess). The timing setting is for it to turn off, not in intervals ( Just so you know how the time setting works).

Mighty little space heater

I’ve tried several space heaters. This one fills the ticket! I was unable to close a window completely and freezing temps were upon us. I tend to be cold all the time and I had to turn it down! It warmed the room quickly and quietly. Highly recommend!!

I expected better. there's a sticker on the unit that basically says if the heater cuts off, unplug it for 5 to 10 minutes and try again. we use the heater for the second time this morning when our heat went out, and within about 15 minutes it shut itself off. I dug a little deeper and found that there is an internal problem and it was overheating. I bought this one specifically for its size, so it could be used in a small bedroom and not be in the way. now I'm going to return it and purchase the taller model.

Heat shuts off automatically, but does not turn on

The heat and oscillation are fine. Nice workings. The big problem with this heater is the ECO mode. YOu can set heater to desired temperature. It will be on high heat, then low heat as reach near set temperature. Once set temperature is reached, heater will shut off, but it will not come on again unless you turn it on manually. So it heats up room, but once heated it is turned off until you manually turn it back on

Dangerous

I plugged the unit into a wall outlet (not extension cord). The unit plug and cord became very hot. This should not happen and is a fire hazard. I am seeing other reviews with problems also. If you buy this, please follow the instructions and do not leave it unattended and do not sleep with it on.

Died after only purchasing it a little over a month ago. Will be returning. I really did like the little heater.

Unreliable

Very effective when it works, but will not power up at times for no apparent reason.

Smells like burning plastic.

Every time I turned it on the room filled with the smell of asbestos and burning plastic. My lungs burned whenever I breathed in.
