Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ EconoHome 250W Wall Mount Splashproof Space Heater - Perfect for 100 Sq Ft Room or Bathroom - Save 50% on Heating Costs! by Tammy Ross

Revainrating 5 out of 5

5 stars, take it with a grain of salt.

For a small space and being fanless convection heaters they are great little units. Very good heater very close by in a small room like my photos, it takes 5 minutes to get noticeably warmer standing in front of it. Remember I have two 250w models. It takes about 20 to 40 minutes to get a VERY good warm up in a small room with a partially closed door. Our bathroom is 5 feet wide, 14 feet deep and 7 feet high. HOWEVER, installation can easily become a nightmare. The plastic threads are crappy and out of tolerance. This is a big problem if you are installing solely on drywall and not studs. When you screw in the end caps, it's very easy to accidentally screw in the entire stand installed in the drywall. This creates a large hole in the drywall, rendering your mount almost useless. TRUST ME, I'm a construction worker, these are VERY delicate wall mounts. ESPECIALLY if you don't align them perfectly with the plate holes. I strongly recommend that someone hold the panel against the wall and mark the holes. DO NOT USE PAPER SUBMIT, YOU SEND, it's far away. If you don't position these pins perfectly, you CANNOT move them more than 1/8 inch or more. Worst case take it all off, get some strong fiber putty, fill all the holes GOOD, take a break and try again tomorrow when it's dry. Don't tear your hair. Also, if your holes are slightly elongated like mine, the panel will chip off a bit of putty-like material. Just like if your pins don't fit perfectly into the holes in the board, pushing the board into the pins will likely cause the board to chip more, see my pictures. No need to worry, just apply a white sealer to the chipped areas. Remember, this is a $89 fanless, blazing hot, coilless, splashproof convection heater. 5 stars overall for this, installation is a royal pain but be careful.
