how many square feet does it heat?

We use it in a basement guest room that is 11x24 (265 sq. feet), and with the door closed, our regular guests say it makes the room toasty for them and baby. Otherwise, in winter that room is about 60 degrees.

I keep it in my back porch for the dogs on winter! Keeps it nice and toasty but stopped oscillating after a month! The room is about 17x12

It heats up well, but I use it mostly for instant heat rather than heating up the room, since it is a fan forced type. I guess, if you're going to use it for the main heater, about 10X15 would be the maximum you can get, without other heating source.

Currently it is heating a 300 sq ft office. Its works really well. It can probably heat rooms that are larger.

Well depending on what floor you have. I have it in my dinning room that is 14x14 sq foot and its amazing what this thing does. On carpet I don't think its that efficient but still does a great job i highly recommend this heater. Remember placing the heater in the right place is the key. I love it. Rating it 5 stars

John, I don't know what the btu is, I mean I know what btu is, but I don't know what it is on this unit. I can tell you that I purchased two of these, and it heats up to 1500 square feet, is very cost efficient, and I may purchase another one. It isn't an expense to purchase this, it is an investment.

I used Mr. Heater in an area approx. 400 square feet. After about 40 minutes I had to turn it way down. I would say this would heat an area at least twice that size, to a comfortable temp.

As a rule of thumb use 10 watts of electric heating per square foot of room space. Using that factor, the 500 watt setting can heat a room that is 50 square feet. How well the room is insulated is also a factor. 10 watts per square foot assumes the room is well insulated. Use a higher setting if that is not the case.

I have had this unit for 2 years. I am very satisfied with it in regards to noise and heat distribution. I have it in my basement covering approx. 300 square feet. The unit is quiet and does not get hot on the outside. I would recommend.

Our room in the basement is approximately 20x25 and it heats it very well. It pretty much helps the whole basement (700 sqft) feel warmer. Irea

Rated for 1000 sq feet but I am not sure how warm it could keep a room of that size. I am using to heat an office area within a larger room and it works well.

The heating area is 21x14. I have found it to heat up evenly, no hot spots.

I purchased it for a second home that I visit off and on during the year. I have it set in the bedroom And it is about 200 sq feet. It does a nice job of heating that. I do question the accuracy of the thermostat however but for the price you can't really expect much more than it does. I'd buy it again.

If The room Temperature starts at about 60° it will heat the room about 2° an hour. You can feel the heat blow About 2 feet away from it. I use two heaters to heat my thousand square-foot home
