Review on 🔥 Mr. Heater F270385: 210,000 Btu Kerosene Forced Air Heater - Black, One Size by Lisa Norman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good at the beginning.

In the first year these guys were great. Fast start, very hot. But after they rested over the summer and we took them back, the problems started. First, as other reviews have said, they don't use the correct fuel line in the heaters. As a result, after 1 year of using kerosene, the fuel lines dried out and cracked, causing air leakage = no ignition. So we had to replace all the wiring on both heaters. A year later, one of the heaters died completely. We visually inspected the board and found a broken transistor. Mr. Heather will send us the circuit board free of charge, but these heaters are maintenance free. We have 4 other VERY old heaters that continue to work year after year. I can't help but think that these new generations are made from the cheapest materials. They get 3 stars because there aren't many kerosene jet heater options left and when they work, they work great.

Pros
  • Best in their niche
Cons
  • Frequency
