I've had this stove for less than two months and the electric plug-in pretty much melted into the wall outlet.  Needless to say, it doesn't work anymore.  I'm working with Amazon and the manufacturer to issue a refund.  I don't want another stove like this one.  It's unsafe and definitely a fire hazard.

It worked fine for a few months then I noticed one night when I went in to our kids bedroom in the middle of the night that it was like an oven in there. The honeywell heater had been set to low heat at 70F. The temperature was reading 85F. It would be one thing if it was in a garage but my kids bedroom!!! They were sweating profusely in their sleep. It is a major health hazard and could be a fire hazard. Do not buy it.

Plugged this in, turned it on, and the "1" setting did nothing. Switched it down to the "2" setting, and it belched a little bit of fire. Used it for heating up some plastic, and after 10 seconds of light exposure from 5 inches away, the plastic curdled violently. Thinking I was unfamiliar with how effective this heat gun is, I assumed this was my fault. I immediately unplugged the heat gun, and noticed that the plastic housing, even the handle were emitting gentle blue smoke. I set it down in a safe place to cool down, and that's when the entire heat gun began to collapse in on itself, partially melting into a heap. gonna return this one.

Very bad heater. Had to give one star because it wouldn't let me write this review. After going through the trouble of installing it, that night the smoke alarms went off, guess it was burning of the toxic paint.  Two days later the blower and thermostat broke, then went through the trouble to uninstall.  DO NOT BUY THIS HEATER!!!!!!!

Poor heater does not warm the room much - disappointed with this purchase.

There is no control for the temperature of the surfaces so it ends up burning the food without cooking the core of it! it is not as user friendly as it is portrayed.

I am beyond disappointed.  This heater started out great. Worked for the size of my master bedroom and I'd move when needed to the master suite bathroom.... well one day. While not on but plugged in the entire plastic casing melted. I typically would unplug after every use but in a hurry for work I turned it off and left. How does this device melt by not being on? I feel as if it could of been way worse. Highly dissatisfied customer :(

This product is awful. I have the heater set for 36 degrees Celsius (96.8 degrees Fahrenheit) and the temperature of the water is at 71 degrees Fahrenheit. This is a 300W heater so it shouldnt have any problem heating my 40 gallon tank but clearly it cant do it. I have an old used 50W heater that i used to make sure everything was okay and it heated my water to 78 degrees within an hour and kept it there. I wouldnt recommend this product to anyone and I will most definitely be returning it if possible, if not it will go in the trash where it belongs. Terrible product i wish i could rate it negative 5 stars.

So I bought this thermostat to replace my old Mercury based thermostat with my Wesco Electric Furnace. I have to say, this works a lot worse than the old one. For instance, I programmed it to always stay at 63 degrees. My furnace is constantly running ever since i switched to this one. My electric bill went up 200 dollars. It will turn off for 5 minutes, then kick back on for another 10, all day every day. It will heat my house up up to 7 degrees more than what i programmed it to do! I have no idea why it does this, and I had a professional install it for me when he repaired my heater. I'm seriously considering returning this one, but I don't have the packaging anymore because I anticipated it to work like it was advertised..... Don't buy this thermostat, invest in one that will actually run your furnace correctly.

I have been on the hunt for a decent griddle and thought I would try this- ceramic is supposed to heat evenly and that is always the problem with griddles.  This does NOT heat evenly at all!  Half of my pancake was dark brown before the other half was even able to be flipped!  I have a surface thermometer and when the griddle was set to 370 degrees, the far right was 234, the middle was 345 and the far left was 366.  It never even reached 370 degrees.  Not to mention the cheap plastic make, the drawer and drip tray are impossible to open/close and the gap between the "ceramic" tray and the plastic unit just asks for gross build up- it doesn't come apart but I dripped a little pancake mix between and now can't get it completely cleaned out.  Please save your money!  I have honestly never given a product only 1 star, but this is truly a 1 star product.

We got this heater to replace a very old one, to heat our 12'x12' living room.  Nothing too extreme.  Used it according to directions and all.

It does a good job heating!  That much I can say.  The double-angled heating feature is nice too.

But it is LOUD.  I mean LOUD, to the point of being distracting while having a conversation or watching the teevee.

The loudness was tolerable for our needs, but the shoddy electrical workmanship is what ruined this heater for me.  After we owned it for about a month I noticed a strange fishy-plastic smell, and found that it literally melted the wall electrical socket it was plugged into.  The plastic around the plug's prong was brown and melty too.

Fortunately this thing didn't burn my house down.  Hopefully it doesn't burn yours down, either!!

I would give this thing a -star rating if possible. I am on my third unit in 4 mos. I just brought a replacement home 2 days ago and it has yet to reach the desired 50 degrees on top and 38 degrees on bottom. DO NOT BUY!! I will be returning this unit too and am hoping to find something that fits in the built in space of my new remodel.

1. The knobs are set too deep to be grasped and turned. Photo 1 is from the side where you can see the knobs are set deeply in. I did everything I could, short of pulling the face plate off, to see if I could get the knobs out further.
2. The package I got had clearly been opened and unpacked before given the amount of tape on the top and the fact that the heater had been placed upside down.
3. After setting the timer to run at medium for three hours, the heater turned off after less than an hour. Unplugging and plugging back in, turning it off and then on again, and setting it to run 24 hours changed nothing. Photo 2: plugged in, turned on max, still not working. Yes I checked my plug and fuses. It's on a surge protector.
4. When it did run, all the heat came out the top, you couldn't feel anything from the sides beyond 2-3 inches away.

I read all those reviews about how great the 25 watt Eheim heater is.. My story, first heater was in a big box with NO packing it had a crushed box and pieces were in the big shipping box. It over heated and would not shut off ie set to 65 and it went to over 90 degrees. Called Amazon and poof new heater the next day. This thermo has a useless fine tuning for thermo, my heater calibration  was out side of adjustment by 6 degrees. Ok thats doable i can do the math. But the set temp of 79.2 was reached the thermo did not turn back on until it went down to 75- 74 degrees. About an actual 5 degree temp difference from set temp. During the day and the room is 75 degrees or so. I used very accurate thermometers. This heater is a piece of useless junk, my old Theo was 1 degree or so of set point and was rated less. A total waste of my time. I was asked for another replacement, while nice service to the customer I wish not to have my time wasted again. How many thermos do i need to get shipped before I get one that functions to its specs of +/- .9f. I guess its more then 2. Disappointed you bet I am, You have to test both set point and how low the temp goes before heater kicks on again, do not be fooled.. Test both.. My tank with just a light has less of a temp swing then this heater does tween night and day.  Never go near my fish... Now what do I buy?????

Those reviewers that compare this heater to a standard 1500 Watt room heater are delusional. This is a 200 Watt heater and it cannot heat a room. I have a 3/4 bathroom which is about 200 cubic feet (4' x 8' x 7'). This heater made no difference to the temperature of the room even after 10 minutes. If you're thinking of warming up a room with this heater, forget about it, it'll barely heat up a cupboard. The warm air it blows out is barely detectable three feet from the heater. You can put it on your desk right next to you and it will warm you up, it will take the edge off the chill. If that's what you want go ahead and buy this heater, if you need more look elsewhere.

This little heater is a fire hazard. It has a little flimsy plastic base that couldn't be more than a quarter pound and the top is like 4-5 pounds. If you look at it the wrong way it will tip over and start a fire. I wouldn't recommend this heater to anybody unless you have good insurance and need a new place to live.
