This product is very similar to the higher priced BH3900. The review below also applies to this.

My new home came with central heating. I loved the convenience, but wanted a heater for the bedroom so I didn't have to heat the entire home through the night, when it was only one room we needed heat in. There began my quest for a portable electric heater!
My first try was a Bionaire Digital Tower Ceramic Heater. It went right back to the store the moment I realized how powerful (read : noisy) the fan inside was. It did do a decent job warming up the room though.
I knew I'd like something quiet. Real quiet. My next try was an Oil Filled Radiator. It was much quieter - just low clicking sounds (probably from the metal or oil expanding?) - but failed to impress on heating. It took almost an hour to make a significant difference to a cold room (12x14) - and barely kept the temperature up through the night with the thermostat dialled up. When in use - the surface turned really hot - and I worried about someone stepping into it in the middle of the night - or my cat scalding herself while trying to kill it :)
I decided to try the Bionaire BH3900 - it promised swifter heating and a cool surface. My wife and me were delighted! It warms the room up much swifter than the oil filled radiator and is absolutely silent! The heat mostly escapes out the top - and there isn't a lot of heat radiated to the sides. The grille on the side makes this look more elegant than the radiators - and just gets luke warm even when this has been running all night. And while my cat has sniffed at the grille (when on) - she hasn't been tempted into attacking it yet.
This was twice the price of the other options we looked at - but were sold on it the first night we tried using it. I wish the thermostat were digital (knob takes some tweaking to find your sweet spot) - but our quest for a heater has ended.

Bionaire BH3950-U MicaThermic

| Review Date: December 24, 2007 |

| This Bionaire BH3950-U MicaThermic Heater is the exact same product as the Holmes Micathermic CNSL Heater that sells for $79.99 at sears (Sears item# 03276161000) that has good reviews as well. The Holmes heater's model is the same as well (Mfr. model# BH3950-U). The confusion is the the earlier model (Mfr. model# BH3900) has the Holmes brand while the later model is the Bionaire brand. There are a few modifications: changed from 8 smaller heating panels to 3 larger ones; changed low/high dial to a low/high switch. Go figure?! We like our Bionaire MicaThematic. The new technology (sandwiched element between 2 layers of mica) works well in our small den. |
Warm, Quiet, and Reliable -- for Years!

Since I got this Bionaire space warming heater a few years ago, in each cold season that followed, I have been enjoying its instant warmth, versatile adjustability and quietness.
Unlike my other smaller sized fan-driven heaters, it would not create a draft in the area, which could be irritating to people with dry eyes or allergy.
In addition, it is truly quiet & so easy to roll around on it's wheels!
I ordered another one today, for another room, for I found myself moving this nice heater between rooms too often already!
Just want more people to know about this superb heater:
Warming up fast, no fan or draft created, quiet, and allows you to adjust to the settings that you like, and my first one has been working well for years.
Highly recommended.

THE best space heater for RVing!

| I was on the hunt to find a space heater that could deliver everything I needed and I found it in this one! It works like a convection oven heating the room evenly and quickly. It took the room up 10 degrees in a half hour, I turned the thermostat down until it clicked off (as per instructions) and it kept the room at my desired temp all night. And most importantly it IS completely silent! wow, what a score- for me that's a deal breaker! I use it in my all season RV, where outside temp really plays a part in our inside comfort and this heater has kept us completely warm and cozzy. It is super light weight (maybe 2 lbs) and easy to wheel around to wherever it's most needed. It never gets hot to the touch, which is important around my 6-year-old. This heater is a perfect score in my book! |
