How quite is this heater?

silent....I have to look at the indicator light to be sure it is on unless I am close enough to feel the heat radiating from it.

The heater makes a quite audible hum, like a fluorescent light. Quieter on low, and louder on high. I love this heater except for the hum. I bought it to use in a meditation house and the hum is distracting. I intend to keep it, however, and use it elsewhere because it is a really good heater. But NOT SILENT as some have said.

It does not make any sound at all. I have two of them and you cannot hear either.

This is a VERY good heater. I am using it a 400 square foot garage it heats very well regardless of the temperature outside very efficiently . That said I know it will heat the area that you will be using it in. However the fan that is on this heater does not produce a large air flow. It is basically designed to move the heat away from the heater with very little air flow. What I would recommend is to buy a few small floor fans to move the air throughout the cabin. I am not sure there is a heater on the market that would provide enough air flow to provide the cabin with uniform heat

It is more about looks than heating, such as a patio heater, but if you huddle around it there is some warming. However, it is visually pleasing and at the price I paid it was a bargain. Jim

It absolutely is.. Amazing too .. You can turn this unit on and it will heat up to temp in a minute or less, has a low temp alarm.. This unit is phenomenal

That's about the size of my bedroom but with a higher ceiling. I turn on and close the door and it warms up quite nicely. I don't like it super hot , just to take the chill off. I don't know how it compares with other heaters as this is the first one I have used. I liked the slim style, lightweight and the remote is great during the night. Hope that helps!

Overall I'm very happy with heater, very enjoyable to use, which may lead to overuse negating any savings. Puts off a lot of heat

This machine is quieter than others. It has a low hum with the operation and of course the sound of the fan. Overall it is very quiet for a heater. The fan is not super powerful but this unit cranks out the heat. It is lightweight and seems durable enough, it is a simple design made for heat. I used it in a 250 (or more) sq ft area and it took the chill out of the air in very little time. So far I am pleased with it, I will know better once it gets really cold out.

Yes it is. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised to the amount of heat this throws out. Good performance for the money!

It is cool to touch. Its a good heater for our bonus room which is big and didnt run up the electric bill too bad! It would be ok with kids

Very little heat from sides and back. Heater is modest at best but throws a bit of heat out the front so it feels warm when you get close. It's a great unit overall.

I own two of these heaters one purchased on 2010- it is now on its fifth winter and the newer one (2012) on its third winter, in use in my bedroom. I needed one left mostly on 400 watts (the top rod) and sometimes on 800 watts - aimed towards my outside wall in my laundry room to prevent frozen pipes. It is on 24/7 and I have had NO problems with either of them and simply store them in the box they came in when I warm up. HIGHLY recommended.

Lighting is so so. The heater is not near as strong as you would think. I am going to move this fan into my office which is smaller and get the Reiker Room Conditioner for the family room. The heater is much more powerful and more easily controlled.

The lighting is fine, the heater very well works but is quite loud for average person.

I gotta say I feel it's pretty quiet and I've my share of heaters in the last few years. The best part for me is the dial because I have bad arthritis it's just super easy to use. I spoke to my mom this morning on speakerphone next to the heater as I have a north facing apartment and it's cold, but she didn't say anything and I could hear her just fine. Hope this helps!

It won't warm up a room that big. It is a small-area heater. I use it as a secondary source of heat to spot warm a sitting area. For that, it's just fine.

The heater works great. The room we have it in is about 300 square feet. It heats that room nicely and then some.

I have mine sitting in front of me but about 10 feet away. It is strong enough that I get warmth, but don't feel a big breeze. It is a mighty little heater, and I think you would like it. The room I have it in is about 12 x 15 and it heats it up nicely even at the medium settings. So it will heat up a bathroom nicely I think. it heats the whole room, not just the ceiling..hahaha...
