Which one? Deciding between this heater, or the new and improved Delonghi TRR0715?

I'd like to know also what people think between the TRR0715 and the TRD0715T? Its seems people are complaining about the noise of the TRR0715. Doesn't the TRD0715T make the same noise?

don't buy from Delonghi their heaters are undependable and service is crap,bought this model last year and it was dead out of the box took 6 months of waiting for a replacement which never came then trying to get a refund after they claimed to have lost the receipt I sent them and could not find the claim number they issued to me, unfortunately for them I saved the messages they left on my answering machine and was able to play back to them so then They issued a refund.

Your heater is a pure resistive load plus maybe a small motor and the switch says it will handle a 1 hp motor which is a much more demanding load. As some of the other answers noted, a heater should be fine. 800 watts is well within the range of load they specify. A 1500 watt heater will probably work fine too. Higher than that is asking for trouble (which will be refusal to shut heater off or failure to turn it on after a bunch of uses).If it doesnt work, buy a husky and hug it when you get out of the shower.

Hi Baduu - I also purchased a heater 3 years ago. As far as I know it's still Ok... but it's still hot where I live so we have not gotten it out and plugged it in. Were you trying to reach the manufacturer?

This is my review I posted on these heaters....you will probably need an new transformer/ignitor part #75-025-0100...see my review below I purchased the smaller PT-55-SS Pro Temp Sun Stream version new and within 6 months it needed a new transformer which costs $75 w/shipping and are on a 6 month back order so I purchased another one called a Heat Hog which is the same as the Sun Stream and after running about 3 tanks of kerosene through this one it also had the transformer go out so I waited for my back order transformer to get here and when it did I installed it and once again within 3 months that one failed also...I followed all the instructions which include letting the heater go through its "cool down cycle" when turning it off and before restarting and they still burned out. My old Knipco heater lasted 15+ years with very little maintenance I should have never replaced it with these overpriced throw away models from Pinnacle. No use trying to argue your case with Pinnacle customer service since no matter what it cannot be their fault you must not have been using the heater properly.

you can find the manual if you do a search on the delonghi site. however: in theory, if you push the green button your heater will maintain at around 68/70 degrees. if you don't like that, turn it off (green light off) then, you will have to slowly turn the other dial up or down, waiting 15 minutes between adjustments to let the room get to the approximate desired temperature. oil heaters have some lag. i keep mine on medium power setting (one of the switches on, other off) and it works great.

I'm not an electrician, and I have been using my new heater and have used the old worn out one only with the GFCI, no problems ever.

The heater is very safe, quite and odorless. Yes it uses less energy than the noisey fan type heaters. It's not fast but give it time and you wil fall in love with it.

We have not heard that advice. I will say that our heater doesn't do the job of our previous one which we had for several years. We have had the current heater for six years and have never done anything with it since it was installed.

Mr. Heater seems to keep improving these units. I just bought mine in September of this year, and it was manufactured in May of this year (2013). I bought it at a local big box store.The fan on this unit seems pretty quiet. Certainly not noisy as others have reported in the past. You will hear the fan, but is smooth sounding an not obtrusive. My guess is that they've improved the fan quality in these current units.

I don't know a number, but if you have central heat, it will be more efficient than this heater, which is also electric. I did not get to keep mine long enough to find out if it was efficient. It quit working in less than a month, and they sent me a replacement part. I am not an electrician, so I couldn't repair the unit.

I spoke with the company this afternoon and they said that the heater is the best they can find in order to keep the price down. They are open to any suggestions for another heater that is both better and less expensive. They also said that they have since switched manufacturers for their filter pump to Intex. Personally, I have not come across any problems with the heater or pump but I was curious if the company offered other options for me to consider for the future.

It's just ok. I haven't figured out if it uses less energy (haven't done the math on my electric bills). I used to have a cheapie Dura Flame fan heater and it was way better at heating my bedroom. I would leave it on & close the door & the room would get toasty. Same thing at my office with a small Holmes heater. For the price, I'm not sure if the Vornado is all that better even though it has such a high end reputation...

All electric heaters are 100% efficient. My heater ran on a 15 amp 120 volt circuit.

All 1500 watt infrared heaters work more efficiently than electric wire coil heaters. The price on these units has dropped a lot in the past few years. I just bought 3 at Big Lots the beginning of October 2014 (one day sale) for $63.99 each. I now have 12 similar units (diff mfgs) in my house and only heat the areas I'm in to 72 degrees F.
