Just received today so I can’t comment on effectiveness. I believe a refill was supposed to be included. If so, I didn’t receive one

I received this last weekend and used it for a picnic that I was planning with my boyfriend and it was amazing. I don’t like to be outside during the spring or summer because of the mosquitoes. I’m usually the only one that gets ate up. I forgot I was even outside. I did not get bit at all and had a great time.

I was amazed at how fast this repeller works. I live in Florida and some days if I leave the porch light on at night, hundreds of mosquitos invade my porch. I put the repeller outside and in less than 10 minutes all the mosquitoes were gone and I was able to take my dog outside. Great product!

It's always mosquito season all year and all day long in southern California. And we spend a lot of time outdoors and are always getting bitten. We recently put this out on an evening we were outside in the backyard and noticed that none of us were getting big bites. Amazing! We'll always have this around now.

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.

The unit worked ok but after the first season the battery started not holding a charge and now after using maybe 15 times it's garbage. I believe a product that costs this much should last longer than 2 seasons. Electronic and plastic waste from items like this are filling our landfills and killing our planet.

We have not been able to use this at all since we purchased it. We have charged it, reset it, put in new cartridge and nothing. The lights come on and circle for about 2 minutes and then go completely out. When we try to turn on, a red light comes on and then goes off. I was thinking about purchasing another one, but don’t want to waste any more money.

I bought this about a month ago for around our pool! We live in Louisiana where the mosquito are our “yard birds!” This works great! I would definitely recommend this hands down. We were able to enjoy a day/night by the pool without having to worry about being bite!

Bought this last week and I can't believe I can now sit on my porch and NOT be the buffet for the mosquitoes!! I LOVE this little machine. We've tried different things over the years but they only seemed to attract flies and moths. :/ I paid full price but it was well worth it.

I got this product to try from the company and so far I love it. Before this I had the one u basically have to spark with a mini fuel container inside it by turning a button. This one is so much more convenient because you just charge it and then press a button and it automatically turns on (like electrically). I also no longer have to mess with those repellent strips and insert them in the device because this one has containers of repellent u just take the lid off and stick right in. Finally, I love the sleek and modern look-it would be great on my picnic table outside etc. I haven’t used it yet to see the range due to the temperature where I am but from what I can see it will be working great and I can’t wait to use it more this summer!
