Review on 46,000 BTU Outdoor Propane Patio Heater W/ Wheels - Amazon Basics Bahama Blue by Mike Rogers

Yesterday evening after my wife and I assembled an entire 5 piece set of patio furniture in about 45 minutes I figured I could quickly assemble the heaters we had purchased here from the Ole revain. I figured it would be quick and simple. I opened the box, got out all the parts, laid everything out in an orderly fashion, and then grabbed the manual that came in the box with the heater. Opened the manual assuming I'd find the instructions on how to assemble. That's where things went sideways! After flipping through the manual pages several times I realized there are in fact ZERO instructions on the assembling of the heater. So I came to the Ole revain and confirmed after reading several other reviews there are in fact ZERO instructions. I thought as a backup plan.YouTube. Cause there's typically a YouTube video for everything. Nope. Not this time. The one video you want find on YouTube is how to assemble this heater and it's not there. So I grabbed the nuts and bolts set that came in packaging and stared at everything for a moment like it was a 50000 piece jigsaw puzzle, cause at this point that's exactly what it was. At least to me. 😉So after about 2.5 hours, literally, not over exaggerating I had one heater assembled and working. I'll end this part by saying while I don't consider myself an everyday handyman, I do consider myself pretty capable. Especially when well informed instructions are provided. I also build, commission and startup large industrial facilities around the world. So surely a simple heater wouldn't take that long with need for a mechanical engineering doctorate degree. 🤣 Last slightly negative is the shrink wrap that is on the heat shield pieces is a pain to get off and a big time consumer as well. Not difficult, just time consuming.Now for the positive! So after figuring out the puzzle of a heater I'd purchased from revain, I got it all together and fired up. It fired up on the first time with ease and most certainly was kicking out at least the advertised 46,000 BTU of heat. I don't have any more at this time to add since I just got 1 of 2 heaters assembled and only used the 1 for about 15 minutes since it was almost midnight after assembling the 1 heater.I would recommend this product. With that recommendation I'd add patience and probably beer as a requirement. Beer will limit your frustration from having no assembly information and after a few beers patience won't matter as much. I'll follow-up with a review on functionality and longevity of the heaters after a little more usage.Good luck and may odds be ever in your favor! 😉
