"Excellent heater for the size!!" 2010-10-21
By Christal
Even though the model number here says something different, the operating manual has it listed as Model 5805. My husband and I bought this ceramic heater for our camper and loved it.

  
"I'm ( only )a space heater" 2010-10-21
By home body (Mi.)
Deciding on purchasing a space heater to keep our 11x11 foot parlor warm. This is the room we sit and watch TV and read our paper.

The house is over 110 years old. The walls are not insulated but are very thick.

I purchased the Lasko 760,000 Cermic Cyclonic heater for this room only.I turned it on and and after three hours found I could not raise the temperture more then 69 degrees. The next day I called the Lasko company and explained my problem to one of their technicians.

He explaind this is a ( space heater only ),If you have an opened area next to this room it will suck the heat from your room and try to heat the cold part of the house too. This made sense. The weather outside Temp. was now 52 degrees

So I did an experiment!! The room has a very large archway maybe guessing 7 feet by 7 feet. I took an old blanket and hung it down over the archway so no heat could pass through.

I turned on the heater and within an hour I was up to 72 degrees

I turned down the automatic control to 70, we watched three hours of shows and the heater hardly came back on.

So I went one more step.

I brought down our oil filled heater with 7 fins Made by Lackwood.

1500 watt. I let the room cool to 69 degrees turned on the heater on 600 watts and dialed to half power and with in one hour I had the room at 71 degrees.

So the question is how good are space heaters the answer is what space do you want to heat. For added exp. I turned on a 8 inch fan

pointed at the ceiling on the lowest speed, this really got the room warm,
I hope this helps you decide on a space heater for your needs.

We plan on hitting the Salvation Army for a nice set of drapes and rods. this will look better then a blanket.

Ps I'm looking at pocket doors next year?

  
"Great heater" 2010-10-17
By Chris
We ordered this heater for our recently finished family room in the basement. The room is over 400 Square feet and this heater works wonderfully. This heater is also a very safe option for those with young children. Would highly recommend to others looking for a very efficient heater.

  
"Great heater for the price" 2010-10-13
By Ann
Heater was delivered very promptly, packaged well & works well - looks good too, kind of retro

  
"Lasko Portable Heater" 2010-09-27
By AZ Al (USA usually)
Have used this heater for several weeks now, and it does a great job of heating whichever room I use it in. I agree that the baffles can be used to direct warm air straight upward or directly out away from the unit, but cannot adjust to hit the floor. The unit is compact, fits nicely against a wall, and the best feature of this unit is the fan is strong but is very quiet, so I don't have to turn up the tv at all. I use it as supplemental heat when I am watching tv late at night, and another great feature is the easy to use timer that can shut the unit off at a predetermined time. Bought this for my MN house, and definitely will buy one for my AZ home for those crisp winter mornings....why use the furnace/heat pump when this will sufficiently heat the living room for pennies.

"Three units compared." 2010-10-27
By JT, Book fan (Decatur, GA)
I have older Lasko 5132. I hoped this model would be similar.

I bought a second heater to use in another room. I tried the 755320 first. I thought the digital display on the 755320 might give me more control than my 5132, which jumps in 5 degree increments. I also liked the remotes, which are identical. No relearning a new remote. The tower design is nice because it puts heat out at a good height without taking up a lot of floor space. All models had the similar timer setting. I really like that in the winter, or if I only need heat for a short time before falling asleep.

I ended up returning the 755320 for a 751320, which I hoped would match the old 5132.

On the plus side all units heat fast and work quite well. The older model has served three or more seasons and is very good.

The 755320 has incremental digital Temp setting which is good if you have a specific heat tolerance you want in the room.I liked the fact that when first started it went to 75 degrees and you could go up or down from there.

On the bad side: The newer models 755320 and 751320 do not have identical features as expected. I liked the high/low feature on the 5132. On the old model, the fan actually powered down in the low position and there was a gentler heat output. On the new models I cannot tell any difference in heat output and the fan speed is constant in both models. No low fan feature, in the low position. The fan on the 751320 is quiet, much like the old 5320. The 755320 however was noisier. It had a strange low, rhythmic droning like a bass digeridoo. That's why I gave it three stars. Obviously I returned that one.

The other difference is on the old 5132 the unit goes to low fan on the 70,65 and 60 degree settings. I liked this feature and may use the old unit in the smaller room for this reason.

Oddly none of the models allow temp control in LOW mode, it only runs on low at MAX, not at any of the preset temperatures.

Unless the 751320 develops the annoying droning, I'll keep it. It is quiet, efficient and serves the purpose. I just wish the features were consistent or described better on the website, product description and manual. If this one keeps working quietly like my old one, I'll be very happy.

  
"Great heater but has thermostat glitch" 2010-10-14
By Caitlyn (USA)
This little heater can heat up a medium-sized room (300 sq. ft.) very quickly with comforting, dry heat. The warm air blows out the front of the unit though the grills stay cool. I like the self-regulating auto-temperature feature, the oscillating option, and the 1 - 4 hour timer. Unfortunately after two years of use for about twice a week, the thermostat calibration seems to be off because it shuts off very early in operation before the set temperature is reached. Also, it uses a lot of power because it's plug and outlet become warm, so I wouldn't run other heavy appliances when using it. Overall it is better than many other types of heaters in that it runs quietly, heats up a room very quickly and efficiently, self-regulates (goes on and off to maintain set temperature), does not emit any odor - a biggie with me, since I cannot stand the odor of my electric oil heater (although it may have a very slight odor after not being used for a long time, which goes away quickly ), and is very lightweight. Makes a very big difference on a cold winter day/night.

  
"Lasko 5812 heater" 2010-05-31
By Donald Stover
Heater works well and can heat a pretty large room, but when you get your electric bill you will want to cut back on the usage.

  
"Great Buy!" 2010-05-23
By Always Hopeful (Columbia, MD USA)
I bought space heater about a month ago and I absolutely love it! This space heater works well and the motor is very quiet. I bought it for my office at work and it will heat the room in about an hour. Before you know it, you can feel the warmth, you soon find yourself lowering the temperature. I'm not an electrician, but the chord itself feels very safe because its not the typical stiff white plastic type. The remote control is a very nice touch too! I would recommend this product to anyone.

"Comfort & Comparison Review" 2010-10-23
By Val D. Brown
We just received our unit yesterday.Shipping was prompt.Customer service answered all our questions satisfactorily prior to receipt. We have an EDENPURE in use for 3yrs, & this seems to be as good or better & smaller & quieter. Performance so far is everything it claims. Very rapid heat-up; very quiet & efficient. Price is acceptable. It is adequate for our needs thus far for Utah winter. Very satisfied & it is an attractive piece of furniture. So far can highly recommend it. Long-time Amazon.com customer.

"Dr. Heater" 2010-06-01
By I. Gustavson (Danbury, WI USA)
I found that the heater generally does what it claims to do, except for the size of the room it is supposed to heat. We used it exclusively in our basement rec room and it had to struggle to get the room tempurature over 70 degrees running on high. Outside tempurature was normally in the mid thirties to the mid-forties. It ran very quietly, attractive and the remote system is great. The heater did not get hot, as advertised. It would probably work great in a smaller room such as a bedroom.

"Nice Space Heater with Crappy Electronics" 2010-10-21
By Mark Rogers (Beautiful Bucks County PA)
I have owned this model and several of the similar units with plastic (vs. the metal) housings. They are a bit unique not only because of the Vornado "vortex" fan, but also because they do not have a glowing, red-hot heating element. They produce warm air and circulate it nicely, and they can heat a small to medium sized room given a bit of time.

Some other space heaters excel at directional heat- we have a "dish" heater that has no fan, but is very warm (much warmer than the Vornado) when you sit in front of it (it DOES have red hot, glowing coils that reflect off of the dish). The Vornados are better at area heating in a more gradual way. So if you are looking for something that provides a quick, dramatic warmth, then the Vornado will probably disappoint you somewhat. If you are looking for a heater that circulates warm air and will gradually heat a room, then you may prefer this to "directional" heaters.

The bad news is that the electronics (switches,thermostats,etc.) on these units are REALLY crappy. I have had several fail after a season or two of use. This "touch-stone" version has a heavy metal housing, a thicker power cord and perhaps even a better fan, but after 2 years, the thermostat is useless and the thing heats only sporadically and unpredictably. Two other similar Vornado models with the less expensive plastic housings have also failed- one will not power-up at all and the other also has a defective thermostat.

I also have a Vornado humidifier with electronics that failed after less than one season (it will only run on full blast all the time, and there is no "humidity" control anymore).

My only other Vornado product is a floor fan, which has worked great for many years (it's only control is a rheostat to set the fan speed variably).

So my experience with Vornado is that the fans in all of their units are pretty durable and superior(given their size) at circulating air- be it warm or cool. But the electronics in these units are nowhere near the same quality. I am not the only reviewer here who notes that they fail- way too often- given that you will generally pay more for heaters and other appliances with the Vornado brand.

I am looking to replace mine with something else. Perhaps a quartz or ceramic heating unit. The Vornados are good while they last, but they REALLY need to up the quality and durability of the electronics.

"JBlaney" 2010-04-01
By Jennifer A. Blaney (California)
I must agree with other reviewers that say these break quickly. I have owned 3 of them and none of them worked for even one year. I threw the first one out and returned the other two to be repaired by the company because I still had my receipt and they were under warranty. They work well when they work, but they are too expensive to only work for a short time. I had one break after 5 months. I wrote the date on it so I knew how long it took to break. I will never purchase a Vornado heater again.

Product Description

Baseboard heater with digital controls


Amazon.com Review

Stay cozy through the dark days of winter with this quiet digital heater from Honeywell. The 120-volt heater offers a cost-effective alternative to a central heating system, or can bring warmth to an area of activity while the overall household system runs on low. A range of safety features and Electrical Climate Control (EEC) further endear this easy-to-use heater to users. Honeywell crafted the low profile heater with flame-resistant plastic. Users monitor temperatures on an oversized LCD screen. The push-button digital comfort control allows users to designate preferred climate temperatures. Once the heater reaches the desired temperature, it displays the information on the heat indicator badge and upholds the level by EEC. Operating at a 1500-watt output, the heater uses a three-prong grounded plug to affix to power outlets. A programmable timer function enables users to predetermine automatic shut-off up in one to ten hours. For fire safety, the heater also automatically shuts off upon knock-over or if overheating. Power and caution lights also enhance safety. Do not place the heater outdoors or near flammables and avoid running the power line under carpeting. Thorough safety guidelines and assembly instructions are included. A limited five-year warranty covers this item. The heater weighs 13.1 pounds upon shipping --Jessica Reuling

Placed below a window in the attic (8 cold windows total) next to an un-insulated crawling space, it does the job beautifully warming an area of 17X25, for some reason the attic is where it works best, but at 1500 watts I am moving on to new technologies (envi 450watt- jury still out on that one).

  
"This heater almost burned my house down!" 2009-12-29
By Robert S. Evans (Boston)
I know by reading many other reviews that people have had the same issue. Please call 877-382-4357 then 1, 2, 2 and report this to the consumer product div of the FTC they will not do anything till thay hear from you, I have already lodged a complaint they need more than me though. Please before this product kills someone or a family!

The thermostat stopped working on both of them in about the same time period @1 month. They in turn overheated and nearly caused an electrical fire, thank goodness my wife was home to see what was happening.

I called HoneyWell/Kaz (the real company name is KAZ Inc I found out, but they kept the Honeywell name for obvious reasons). They were extremely defensive and told me to send the heaters back for refund and that they would conduct a FULL-Analysis and get back to me. When I called back later they could hardly remember me or the problem and I was shuffled me into Voice-mail, I must have called 7 times. I then called the Fed Trade Commission to issue a consumer warning against this product, they immediately sent someone over to review the damage and file a report.

The FTC called Honeywell/Kaz and demanded the defective heaters be sent to them, but lucky for Kaz (I sarcastically write) they had disposed of them and would not produce any such defective products. The FTC said big companies often try to get the product back so that no formal un-biased review can be performed on the product, I will be happy to provide names of individuals both at Honeywell/Kaz and the FTC, so you may corroberate these claims.

Beware these things are dangerous in my Experience, (2 of them!). :

  
"Worked two years, then nothing, wouldn't buy another" 2009-12-24
By Ernest Hemingway (Plymouth, MN United States)
Honeywell HZ519 Digital Low Profile Silent Comfort Heater
I used this heater for two years. The thermostat was not accurate, ever. It did heat the room when we set it high, but it didn't shut off.

When we brought out the heater in the third year winter, it was dead. Nothing.

The screws holding the heater together have a proprietary bizarre head, so you cannot even get into the unit to attempt to determine the problem.

No support is available. The manual is worthless.

It is very likely an issue with the inferior controls
It is built in China for Honeywell, and isn't apparently repairable.
It is not worth what we paid for it. Cheaper heaters have lasted longer for us.
I will likely not buy another Honeywell unit

  
"Warms the room, but gets very hot and is fairly large" 2009-11-28
By Just a guy (Westchester, NY)
This does a good job warming a room, but be careful because it gets very hot to the touch. Also, the unit itself is larger than it looks in the picture. Be sure to check out the dimensions before ordering. It has held up well over lots of use. Also, beware that it does suck a lot of energy.

"Disarmingly unfavorable quality. Discourteous costumer service." 2010-10-09
By K. Lee (Orange County, CA USA)
I received this heater as a replacement of another Delonghi heater which was higher-performing with more heat output in watts. This is how Delonghi treats you with its cocky 1-year limited warranty. You might as well get an inferior, cheaper product as Delonghi mistreats its customers to do itself a favor. The service location to deliver the broken heater was far, and Delonghi took more than a month to provide me with this cheaper heater.

Besides, both my original heater and the replacement (this heater that the review is about) broke in less than a year. I had to change through 3 heaters in less than a year due to Delonghi's rock bottom product quality.

Do NOT buy from Delonghi to bear this poor product quality and customer service.

i really like this product. this is my second one in 4 years, i think the last one died when our power went out. 24 hr timer & thermostat. not sure the cost of electricity usage. my only per peeve is the smell, takes a long time to burn off, have used it every day for over 3 weeks and it still smells. it's small but sturdy.

  
"Excellent Compact Heater" 2010-05-02
By Ira Eick (Jacksonville, FL USA)
An excellent compact heater. Easily maintains a 24 ft travel trailer comfortable in 30 deg weather. Provides a steady, constant source of heat. Have not yet used the programable feature, but judge it to be a plus. Fin surface does get uncomfortably hot to the touch so should be used with caution around small children or pets.

  
"Instructions! The first time you start this heater...." 2010-04-19
By LD (Colorado)
Take the heater to a room that you can close the door to and will not use for the next 24 hours- spare bedroom, bath, or garage. Before you plug it in- push all the red pins on the timer dial toward the center. This will prevent the heater from going on and off during your testing. You can program it later. Plug the cord in. Click both red switches to on and they will light up. Each switch controls a separate heating coil. If they do not light up, go to the black box on the power cord and press the red button. If you now have both switches light up, you have just solved the problems of over half who have written reviews saying the heater did not work. Rotate the temperature dial to the highest setting. Run the heater for 3 hours. There should be a lot of heat coming off the unit. If both switches are still red, the heater is working. You will smell the burn off but it is over at this point. Turn the switch for the hotter side off. You can continue the test in the room you want to run the heater in or leave it where it is. Turn the temperature dial down to a lower setting if you wish. It is better to run the unit on a low setting 24 hours a day than to have it going on and off. I found that I had to leave the door to the room open at setting #3 to keep it from getting too hot in my mountain home during the winter. I ran 3 of these units in my 2 story home all winter and the main furnace hardly kicked on. They cost about $20 more a month in electricity compared to gas. Not bad. I bought 7 of these units. I left each on for a month. I then boxed it up and tried the next one. I had one quit after 2 weeks and got a replacement. Once a room has been at a constant temperature for several days it does not take much to keep it there. If you want a warm bathroom, leave it on a low setting and crack the door. The excess heat will warm your hall and other rooms over time. The bath will stay warm no matter when you use it. Timers are a weak spot and they will fail before the heater is worn out. Its your money. Other than a factory defect-like the one I had- most of the complaints are because the people did not follow these steps. The manufacturer failed to explain these details.
