Company doesn't seem to be able to honor warranty

This heater worked great for the first winter that we owned it. Unfortunately, after bringing it out for use at the start of a second winter, it heated for about 15 seconds before the heating element broke and no more heat came out. After exchanging a few emails with Trustech who seemed to think the problem was a stuck tip-over detection switch -- the unit still beeped when tipped over, so this was clearly not the problem -- we sent in a photo of the broken heating element. That was nearly two…

Pros
  • Now we can sit outside on the deck when its cool
Cons
  • Defective item. Did not turn on. Returned

It's a Gamble: my feedback

Product arrived the day before cold snap and 3 days later than expected. It was a box inside of a box for extra protection but both boxes were busted open. I notice the box appear to be open and taped up. Easy to assemble. The heating element was snapped in half. I still tried it. It turned on. Put out a lot of heat in a short amount if time and shut off within 3 minutes never to cut back on. If the element wasn't broken I am sure it would heat the room. Maybe the solution is better handling at

Pros
  • Heats large room quickly
Cons
  • Didn’t like. Heating tube exploded right away

Not warm, can't completely assemble, remote doesn't work

This outdoor heater is definitely not warm. I expected to be able to use the heater on my patio at 500w. Nope. I have to run it at 1500w and stand next to it.It includes a handle that one must assemble, in order to move it if it's hot. It is impossible to attach the handle. The directions in the manual make no sense.The remote control does not work, but since this isn't a very hot unit I can use my own hand to turn it on/off and set it to 1500w.If I hadn't already thrown away the box I'd return

Pros
  • Remote Control & 24 Hrs Timing
Cons
  • Was excited to open and looks used. Scratched. Asking for a replacement. Will update later.

Heater Stopped Working After 5 Months

Purchased this to help with providing additional heat in our basement. After 5 months of infrequent use, the filament on the heating coil broke and the unit no longer produces heat.Communication attempts with the seller have gone unanswered.

Pros
  • Warmth that doesn't dry out the air, preserving a comfortable living environment
Cons
  • Can emit an unpleasant odor when first turned on

Great when you can't mound a heater on your patio

I rent and have stucco walls, so I don't want to drill into them to mount a heater. This was a great solution, and it's very warm!

Pros
  • An excellent option for heating patios and outdoor spaces
Cons
  • Can be difficult to transport if needed for outdoor use

Doesn't Work Very long

I originally gave this product a good review (see below); however, it completely stopped working just short of a year. I contacted the dealer via email and never received a response. Buyer beware--no dealer support if you have a problem.The heater was easy to put together.just have your phillips screwdriver handy. Heats up amazingly quickly. We set it up on our small screened in porch and it's perfect for cool/cold nights. The remote is handy, just wish the remote would completely turn off the…

Pros
  • Easily portable and movable for versatile heating options
Cons
  • Can take up valuable floor or wall space

Great electrical heater for patio!

Easy assembly, lightweight and compact. Using on an open outdoor patio. Warm to those sitting directly nearby. Would most likely purchase a second heater for patio space. Happy with purchase!

Pros
  • Simple to clean with removable grills
Cons
  • Can emit a buzzing sound that some users may find distracting

Nice size for outdoor patio

We bought for use outside as the Fall approaches and we are socially distancing with friends and family. I bought this since the propane type heaters were not available. I am glad I did. This is super easy to assemble. A few screws and 5 - 10 minutes. I think no tools were used. And it warms up super fast and seems like it will keep us toasty. I went to order another and now see out of stock. I'd buy another. The remote is nice. I used Velcro and taped to unit.

Pros
  • Consistent and energy-efficient heat that doesn't fluctuate
Cons
  • Requires access to an electrical outlet

Horrible. It broke after a year

This broke after 14 months of use. There is no information about how to return to manufacturer for returns. Don't waste your money

Pros
  • Heat at night on the deck
Cons
  • Mine seemed to have been used by the looks of the base. Sent it back.

Save your money, this is horrible

If you’re sitting right in front of this unit, like 2 feet away or less, it’s great. Puts out some hot heat. But how silly of me to think that for $180 it would also have an internal fan to blow that heat around. In this picture I’m about 6 feet away and I can’t even feel it. What a waste of money.

Pros
  • Looks great for the money. Waiting for my refund
Cons
  • I bought this for patio heat. Really doesn’t do much. Does work nicely indoors.

Great Product best in my review

Great product, this thing really throws the heat, it has 3 different temperature settings, I don't use the highest setting as it puts out more heat than I wan't/need. Another great feature was I lightly bumped the heater when it was on, and it automatically shut itself down. I paid a little more than I wanted, but after receiving it and using it on a regular basis, it is certainly worth the money.

Pros
  • Multiple thermostat settings tailored to your needs
Cons
  • May need to be mounted or installed in a specific location

Not enough heat on my review.

Its a nice heater but it just didn't work for the cold Alaska weather. It didn't provide enough heat unless you sat right in front of it.

Pros
  • Easy to install and set up with clear product instructions
Cons
  • Cannot be used as a primary source of heat in extremely cold environments

Pros
  • Clear and remote-controlled functionality from a distance
Cons
  • Can emit a bright light that may be uncomfortable for some users

A nice, affordable heater for our screened porch

The heater was everything it was advertised to be. Only assembly required was four bolts to attach the base. Nice to have three heat settings although so far have only used the lower two settings. The remote control is also a handy feature. Have had many heaters of all types and I think this one is great. I can now eat breakfast and lunch out on the porch!

Pros
  • We like it
Cons
  • Good for one or two people outside. Works well inside.

Didn't do the job Returned

This heater was supposed to heat a large area. We were sitting right in front of it and barely felt the hear. Returned it after 1 day.I will say the company reached out to us. So good company to deal with was just not fully satisfied with the product

Pros
  • Easy controls for user-friendly operation that anyone can use
Cons
  • May not provide enough heat for users with specific warmth preferences

Great heater on my review.

The heater arrived in good shape. Super easy to assemble and it works great. I have not yet needed to go higher than the 2nd setting. The heat is just perfect, far reaching, and no noise. I highly recommend.

Pros
  • 3 Second Heat & 3 Heat Settings
Cons
  • Heater looked used when it showed up. No box, no directions, no remote and no parts. Very disappointed.

Creates heat on my review.

Very happy with this heater, it creates enough heat on our outdoor patio to take the chill of when it's just a bit too cool outside. It doesn't heat the whole space, but is enough to make it comfortable.

Pros
  • Designed with safety features including a heat shield for protection
Cons
  • Can be dangerous to touch when in use

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not strong enough for what we need

Nice looking unit, heats fast, but not enough heat for our cool spring days in Colorado. I will have to buy a bigger one for that.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • We put it together and it wouldn’t turn on.

Died a few days after return window ended

The filament in the glass tube spontaneously snapped rendering the heater useless. Regardless using it as an outdoor patio heater in the winter wasn't that great. You had to be quite close to it to stay somewhat warm. Trying to heat a group of four people is impossible. Don't buy. I'm very disappointed.

Pros
  • Wide Heating for Large Space
Cons
  • Can be easily knocked over by pets or children
