Review on Hurricane Tower Heater: 70-Degree Oscillating Heater with Remote Control by Misty Good

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Bedroom heater bust

If it worked this would be the perfect little heater. Received on Friday, today is Sunday, I will send back tomorrow. It only worked 2 hours on a Friday and when I went to bed I tried to swing the fan to oscillate so it wouldn't blow directly on the bed after 2 minutes, the heater stopped working. The light was on, but nobody was home. It looked exactly as it should when it was on, except there was no heat. I had to turn the heater off and then turn it back on, it spun at 65 degrees for about a minute and then stopped again. I had to set the temp to 75 degrees for it to oscillate and not turn off, but by then the room was stuffy. In addition, the heating switches off at lower temperatures for a longer period of time. I thought maybe it reads the ambient temperature in the room and turns on when the temperature drops below a certain temperature, but it doesn't. This morning I woke up with a runny nose because it wouldn't turn on anymore, but the light is still on like it's working. I'm sending it back, I mean for $50 it was a good idea and it would be perfect if it worked stably. When it works and heats up the room remarkably, it's super cozy, comfortable, and relatively quiet. The wiggle mode only worked the first day and I don't know why it hasn't worked since then, but now when it wiggles it's very loud and clicking. No obstacles, no rollovers, I didn't drop anything, nothing weird, just don't want to work.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • No mold required
