Review on 🔥 Lasko Heating Space Heater: Efficient 16 Inch Silver Heater for Optimal Comfort by Danny Poulin

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Small, light and gets the job done in a short season. UPDATED

I recently bought this as my old quartz was finally falling into disrepair. For some reason the computer room hardly gets warm in the winter, so I needed something to secure myself here. It's working quite well so far. It's very quiet, like white noise, actually quieter than a regular fan. It has 3 fan speeds as well as 12 heat setting settings. It also has a button to make it wiggle. It turns on automatically during use and turns off automatically when it reaches the desired temperature. It's quite small and very light, easy to handle and move. Doesn't feel hot. Just hot air where heated air comes out. When you turn it off, the front end feels cool. I keep it close enough to my desk and keep warm. I've never run it at full blast, but I'm sure it will heat this whole room (19x15) with no problem. Since I'm alone here most of the time, I can turn off the heat for the rest of the house when I'm here. Electricity bills don't seem to have gone up much of that either. When I first turned on the heater, it gave off an unpleasant smell for the first 20 minutes, but then there was no smell. The cable is thin and thin. I think it was worth the price. Hope this lasts a few years. UPDATE: It's been like this for a few months. The following season he began to rattle and make a lot of noise. You would have to move it to make it silent. In fact, he didn't really heat anything up either. I never left it on when I left the house or went to bed. I always turned it off and unplugged it. So in total it was only used 5 or 6 hours a day. Finally, about 3 weeks ago, I started smelling an odor that seemed like it was heating up (wires). Just turned it on yesterday and was in another room when it got very noisy and smelled like burnt wires. So I turned it off and will stream it. Absolutely NOT worth the money.

Pros
  • This heater has safety features fully built in so you don't have to worry about having it in your home with children or pets.
Cons
  • Neutral
