Review on Heat Storm HS 1500 IMO Portable Infrared by Keely Simmons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love this heater. My cats love it.

This review is for the MS-1500-IMO Mojave. I have 12x12x16@11#. The paragraphs above show that it has built-in roles. This heater has no built-in rollers. I purchased this heater from Revain in October 2015 for supplemental heating in a 17ft x 22ft room with a 10ft 6in high cathedral ceiling that has a 10ft and a 6ft base. PCB heaters. In the fall I use it to let out the cold (no baseboard). In winter I use both. This heater has high and low fan speed. I rarely use high settings. At low, it's surprisingly quiet. And when it's high, it gives off a lot more heat at the same time. It also has 2 air filters - one on each side - SAVE THEM! CLEAN! This heater sucks in a lot of air. All environments are different, so take the time to adjust your thermostat. The remote control is a nice plus and works great. For pet owners (and parents with children), this heater is safe. No part of the surface of this heater - sides - back - top - front (except for the front outlet area) gets hot or even remotely hot. I have two cats. My cub lies in front with paws touching and my senior (15 year old) stands, sits and lies on this heater when it is on. (then it was a bit worrying) This heater also has a flavoring function. My cats took it as a heated toy (parents - your opinion) I have to say that I do not use this function. (Alternative - use cotton swab with extract - place next to filter) Q/A asked about energy efficiency - costs - bills. I find it difficult to talk about it. I've only had this heater for 10 months. I can say that I use this heater without a baseboard in the fall and with a baseboard in the winter, and in this short time my electricity bill has not increased. I have more heat at no extra cost. I paid $160 in October 2015 for this beautiful design and well built heater. And for 160€ I would do it again. Read the Q&A and reviews ---- there are tips to help you. My addition to other reviews, I hope it will help you.
