My mom needs her 12' x 15' master bedroom/bathroom to be 82 degrees. Will this do the job and can it be left on through the night?

That's just about the size of our room that we use it in! It works really great and safe! Highly recommend!

No, it is not that powerful. And again this heater is unreliable. Mine only lasted 4 months before it failed. Would not trust it at all.

We left ours on in the living room for several bitter cold weeks during the midwest propane shortage last winter. Whether or not it will heat that space to 82 degrees is going to depend on external factors like outside temp and insulation of the structure.

Best heater on the market.. I own two and they are efficient, noiseless, and can be operated 24/7 . I live in North Dakota and I wouldn't be without them. I use one for a 10x12 bedroom and it's fine. Not sure if it could handle a larger room, it would depend on insulation and outside temp. This is a safe quality heater.

Yes. this should do a fine job for her. Just make sure you have 2-3 feet of clearance around the heater so it's not up against anything.

Not sure... but the beauty of this machine is its timer: set and forget it! Your space will be as warm as you want it as long as your ceilings aren't higher than the standard 8 feet. Hope that helps!

It depends on location in the US and the extent of existing insulation of the specific room. It will keep a room 12'x15' with two outside walls insulated with R-13 comfortable (room door is closed) when the outside temperature is 25 degrees F using the low setting.

I would use an extra deep fitted sheet - it won't go all the way to the floor, but it will be long enough to stay on all night.

I use it in my bedroom, which is 10' x 14' and it does a great job. Plus, I keep my window open during the night.

In a poorly insulated older home, it's way more than adequate for a 15 x 15 room when outside temperature is in the 30s or even lower. In a room that is twice that size, it's just not enough at these temperatures. A space heater is a necessity. Overall, in my situation after exactly one year of use, GOSH am I pleased!!

Yes. You can set it at 72 and leave it at 72. Or any other temp for that matter. This is a very good unit quiet, and energy efficient. It is our second one. The other lasted 20 years.

Oh yes, but I don't think you want to keep it on long or it will really get very hot in room. When I turn mine on at lowest setting for around 5-7 minutes the room-about 400 sq ft- is well warm enough to turn it off. Also the first setting-didn't know this-cools, then second and third heat. Will work for me quite well living in hot climate but with cold Winters. Very pleased with it. One thing also is it MUST be on flat surface, not carpet or it goes off. They call it a safety feature and it's on the bottom if not connected to hard surface constantly, goes off. So I set it bit higher on wooden stool and works fine. But oh does it heat fast

NO, NO and NO, it will knot. I have mine in a 150sft bedroom, insulated, double glazed windows, where it will do fine until the temp falls below twenty degree's. Then I have to add a comforter. david lubbock tx.

I now like the machine but the settings/temps process is mysterious. In brief, be sure it is in the mode you want; like standard and not eco or fan. I turn it on and up to where it starts, then back it down. I set its reading to four or five degrees higher than I actually intend. This way it cycles on and off at night and keeps the (bed)room at the desired temperature. This advice may not help. In which case persist; just fool with the thing until you win. Or call LeLonghi and good luck with that.

Probably not well. Many factors need to be considered such as the ambient temperature and how much you would like to raise it. 1,500 watts or 5120 BTU's per hour would raise your room with average insulation only 10 degrees F. It would make you feel warmer having it next to you while you were out there. Here's a link to an on-line calculator that you might find helpful. http://www.calculator.net/btu-calculator.html

I have mine in an upstairs bedroom that is about 12 by 20 ft. with sloped ceilings since it's right under the roof.Since there is foam insulation in the roof, it works well all winter and most of the summer. It can't quite keep up when the outside temp is over 95 degrees. To help it out, I have it taking in room air and exhausting the waste air outside through a vent pipe. That way, it doesn't have to deal with extreme temperature differentials.

I have an open floor plan with my double wide mobile home and only have one bedroom out of three closed and have the Envi heater pretty much in the middle of the house and set with thermostat on 68 and it keeps my heater from coming on till real late at night.That's with it at 28 to 32 degrees. It radiates heat and heat rises and then it begins to come down. I love mine cause it sure is easy on the electric bill . Hope this old school gal has helped you.

I keep our bedroom kind of cool so it stays cool most of the night. It is big enuf to readjust when it starts getting warm. I can always find a cool spot on it.

Jamuny,I checked the instruction booklet that you're advised to keep. The only thing it says is do not use the unit in a room that has less than 43 square feet of floor space. That is small, but that does not answer your question. I do know, though, that a room of about 12 feet by 12 feet can be heated without a problem. If it is very cold, the unit will remove the chill. You can set the thermostat to adjust the temperature, if that will help. Large rooms with high ceilings won't be heated very well in a reasonable amount of time. I hope this helps.

I think so! I am not noticing any bill escalations. It is set for 70 degrees for my 3rd level master bedroom area. It cuts off after 70 degrees. It should not be used for the entire house. Hope this helps.

I purchased the Holmes Heater with Programmable Timer & Bathroom Safe Plug, HFH436WGL-UM that another reader recommended. Do not buy it if you have a large master bathroom. The heat it puts out is warm and not really hot. I set it in the winter to turn on 30 minutes before I get up (it runs for a max of 45), and the bathroom is barely warmer than my bedroom and the house is set to stay at 65 deg.
