 The best heater ever |
| Review Date: January 2, 2006 |
| Reviewer: L. Wendlick, |
| This is a great unit and just like it states it is wisper quiet. Easy to read digital temp. Took about 5 min to warm a 63 degree room to 72! Takes up little space, I put mine in the corner and you don't even know its there. It is also an attractive unit that I don't mind having in any room of the house. The remote controol is a plus also. I Did not think I needed it, but now that I have it, I love that feature also. There is an easy to use timer on the unit also. That is a nice feature so you don't forget to turn it off when you go to work etc. I am thinking about ordering another one as this is such a handy unit. With heating costs this winter it is a money saver to use this electric unit to supplement your heat. |
Best Electric Heater
|
| Review Date: September 6, 2006 |
| Reviewer: Tony, Johnson City, TN |
| I bought this heater for my living room. I have central heat and air, but this helps me save money on my heating bill. It's slightly more expensive than other ceramic heaters, but it has an air purifier and a remote control. None of the cheaper ceramic heaters have those features. You don't realize how handy the remote control is unless you have owned an electric heater without one. You can make minor adjustments to its thermostat with the remote control. You can adjust the thermostat from 64 to 90 degrees. It has a big, bright LCD display on the front that shows the temperature and other information. Many people seem to prefer those electric oil-filled heaters, but some of them can take forever to heat up a room. This heater produces a lot of heat quickly. It's rated at 5,200 BTUs. A small air conditioner has a rating of about 10,000 BTUs. It also has the ability to automatically alternate between high and low power when it's in AUTO mode. It doesn't always use 1500 watts of electricity because of that. Sometimes it will only use 950 watts if a room is already warm. The Sunpentown SH-1508 is the best electric heater I have ever owned. |
Great Little Heater

| Review Date: October 22, 2005 |
| Reviewer: K. Barker, |
| After reading dozens of reviews on dozens of heaters, I gave up and ordered what looked good. So far, I very happy with this one. Although assembly was indicated, it came fully assembled. It heats my son's bedroom (10 x 12) in very short order and it takes the chill off my living room (16 x 22). I switched to a pellet heater as my primary fuel and there are some areas of my home that just stay cool. I'm confident this will do the job on all but the coldest of days (Mid-Michigan). The directions are easy to understand and the remote is simple to use. The only drawback is the LED panel is super bright for my sleeping preference (great nightlight for a kid) and when the timer (max 7.5 hour) shuts the unit off, it seems to erase the preset room temp. It then defaults back to 75 degrees. Could be I haven't figured it out yet but either way, that's a minor thing to me. Overall, I think I got a good deal on a good heater. |
Lovin' my new Christmas present

| Review Date: December 24, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Jim D. Kimzey, San Francisco, CA USA |
This is a great little heater. Our living room is about 20'x20' with 13' high cathedral ceilings and large picture windows, and it stays about 4 to 5 degrees colder than the rest of our house. I finally got tired of bundling up just to watch T.V., so I put this heater on my Christmas list.
After 1/2 a day of using it, I'm loving it. The heater is small, attractive, quiet, easy to use, and most importantly, keeps the room comfortably warm. A lot of reviewers have complained about the bright display, but the company seems to have listened. It now automatically dims itself a few seconds after you turn it on or make any adjustments.
We are using it on Auto setting at 70 degrees, so it warms the room up to about 71, turns itself off, waits for the temperature to drop to 69, and then turns itself on again. I'm very pleased with this gift and feel it is doing everything I would want a small heater to do.
I do have a couple of recommendations to the manufacturer on how to improve this product. One is to have it remember its last settings. For this product, every time you turn the power off and then back on, you have to reset it to Auto and set your temperature. Since I am always going to use it in the same place at the same setting, it would be nice if I didn't have to readjust it every time. However, this is a small thing as it only takes a few seconds to reprogram. But it seems like an obvious feature to add. The other recommendation is to put a digital clock in the heater and allow the user to program it to come on at a certain time. If I were using this heater in a cold bedroom, I would want this feature, so it could start warming my bedroom before I woke up. |
