Review on 🔥 Impress IM-701 Compact Fan Heater: 1500-Watt Power, Adjustable Thermostat in White by Julie Morris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Generates as much heat as you want, where you want

I may be comfortable in the winter, but I'm cold when I'm working at my desk. I like to have a little heater at my feet to even out the situation. The Impress fan meets this requirement perfectly. The fan control only has 1 speed but 4 settings: 1) Off, 2) Fan only, 3) Low heat and fan and 4) High heat and fan. There's also a temperature dial that lets you dial in the amount of heat you want. The device is stable and produces a warm flow of air that can be felt up to 6 feet away. Due to the relatively low fan speed, it is very quiet. (I can't hear it at all, but there's certainly some noise.) The fan is plastic and the heat is calibrated low enough for that. I've pushed it with my bare feet but never found the device too hot to touch. It doesn't seem to have a shutdown when the block is tipped over. I haven't flipped it yet, but I did flip it face up and down to test shutdown. Shutdown aside, this unit can only judge what temperature matches the thermostat settings. It would be nice to have an idea of what to adjust, rather than just picking and adjusting a setting when it feels too hot or too cold. According to the manual, this shouldn't be a big change to an already good product.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
