I have used this heater for a couple of weeks now, and am more impressed with it than ever.  I spend most of my day in the family room.  I use this heater to keep that room nice and toasty but can keep the thermostat turned down in the rest of the house.  The best things about this heater is that it has a thermostat so you can set the temp you want, it has a remote control, and the sides and bottom stay cool.  I love this heater !!

Up until the time I got this Heat Storm infrared, my experience with space heaters was the old fashioned type - cheap, but no fan and a fire hazard to anything that came remotely close.  This Heat Storm infrared heater is SOOO much better.  First of all, this is a sturdy little heater, built low to the ground not likely to tip over.  Next, when in operation all the external surfaces except the small grate at the very front (see picture) stay cool to the touch.  This was a concern to me because I have a couple of dogs that I didn't want to set on fire.  Except for the front grate, you can very comfortably rest you hand on this heater, including underneath (I was worried about resting it on a carpeted floor - but no problem).

This heater is thermostat controlled, so it doesnt run continually  just set the temperature you want.  The temperature is displayed on the front panel of the heater and easy to read even from a distance.  It comes with a remote (batteries included) so you can adjust the temperature up or down and turn the heater on and off without having to get up.  The cheap, low tech type of space heaters I had in the past didn't come with a fan  this one does and it works great.  Because of the fan warm air is distributed nicely and not just in the immediate space next to the heater.  There are 2 power settings, full power and half power.  Yes, you can hear the fan run, but I don't find it to be overly loud even on full power.
According to the specs, it will heat up to 1,000 square feet.  I use it mostly in an average size bedroom converted to a home office and it does the job nicely.  I recommend it.

This little heater saved us through a second March snow when our old one died.  The thermostat settings are a very nice feature.  I do not think it could ever heat a whole 1500 sq. ft. (that would be our whole house) but it made our living room very pleasant.  It arrived very promptly, was easy to operate right out of the box, and so far, money well spent.

I thought I'd write a review after over 10 years of usage (purchased in Nov. 2005).  I love this space heater and have been using it in my 10 x 15 office during the winter time.  Our winters last long so that means about 5 months of every day usage.  For those that want instant heat then this isn't for you.  This is radiant heat and it takes a good 1/2 hr. to 1 hr. in this size room for it to become effective.  Once it does, it's toasty warm and wonderful and sometimes it gets downright hot so I have to turn it down.  I've seen a few reviews of customers having oil smells or electrical fires but I've never had this.  I also love the price I paid back then for it which was $59.88 plus $15 shipping.  I looked at where it was made back then and it says P.R.C. (China)  If this unit goes out I'll buy another one.

Bought this as a space heater to supplement the heat in my baby/toddler's room at night. It works well, keeps the chill out of the air once the house furnace is turned down for the evening. I also want to state, as other reviews have, that you should set the temperature setting 5 degrees warmer than what you want the room to be to make sure it maintains that temperature in a larger space.

I got this heater to heat a 576 sqft room and it does it very well. I haven't seen a big jump in my electric bill.

This heater already seems much better than the unit it replaced. It's at least a foot shorter too and generally looks better. It was easy to install following the instructions and it fired right up when when I was done. The 400k BTU unit is perfect for my 37,000 gallon pool.

I've read other reviews expressing problems with the electronics but mine is working fine. I do take the precaution of covering the heater when it's not in use because I don't want to expose the electronic display panel to heavy rain.

I also read others comment that this is a noisy heater. I disagree. You can hear the low rumble of the gas burners but it's no different than the other heaters I've owned. It's definitely less noisy than the older model heaters. I wish the A/C unit sitting next to it was as quiet.

It's pretty cool how you can connect the power, gas or water to either side of the heater.

The price was great and the free shipping is more money in my pocket.

This space heater has a good design.  It would be almost impossible for it to ever tip over  I like the color choice.  I bought both this green one, and the orange one for a spare.  I plugged it in and tried out the different heat settings.  It works perfectly.  I bought this to plug into a generator if we have a power outage in winter to keep pipes from freezing down cellar.

We were looking for another space heater and a friend recommended the Lasko Ceramic Tower. We purchased a later model, and there were some improvements, such as the carring handle. It is light weight and easy to carry to different locations. It does a very good job of heating the room. We live in North West Tennessee and with the combination of another space heater, we have not used our furnace at all this year. The electric bill has dropped dramatically. We will be purchasing another Lasko next winter.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Lasko-5572-Ceramic-Tower-Heater-with-Logic-Center-Remote-Control/dp/B001DNIIUC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Lasko 5572 Ceramic Tower Heater with Logic Center Remote Control</a>

This is a dandy small space heater.  We have it in corner (sidewise) and we put rubber "no skids" under each leg, as we have hardwood floors.  After you get the knack for starting it, it's nice.  Push the left button for several seconds until there is a little glow, then push the right knob (in proper position) and the pilot light comes on.  The only negative is ; there is no ventilation, so be careful to have fresh air flow.  We turn our thermostat on house fan to "on" and it helps circulate some, plus turn on ceiling fans.  It warms quickly and warm.  Unless you have a really big room, you will not need it on high.  It's not a big unit, so it would looked dwarfed in a big room, but perfect for my parlor size living room.

Great little heater.  I have a kill a watt meter and tested this unit at 777 watts on low.  Nice warm output. Good quiet fan.  Ran 20 minutes- the cord was still cool, and the outside of the unit was not hot at all.  It does not have tip over protection. Not sure about overheat protection. There is no thermostat. I am perfectly happy because this keeps it simple, less to go wrong.  I have a very small bathroom, so I can run it to warm up the bathroom and then shut it down when I start if I wish.

This heater is simple to set up and use. The controls on the unit are simple (up, rotate, power, timer down). As for heat I was able to heat a 12 x 14 room to a nice 73 in a relatively short amount of time. As for noise I found it to be no more loud than most  space heaters that circulate hot air with fans... The remote is a nice touch for thos who aren't willing to get up and change the settings, but it still fairly small and can easily be misplaced.

All in all 4/5 stars. I'm withholding a star for longecity

I previously used a small Lasko oscillating forced air heater in my home office. The unit performed well but it just didn't "seem" warm unless I left the room and then returned to feel the difference. My hubs recommended a radiant heater for that warm feeling, so I purchased this one and couldn't be happier. It fits right under my desk against the wall and the heat just soaks into the surrounding area (and me).

I love the thermostat setting (keeps temp within 3 degrees of your selected setting) and the auto-shutoff (turns unit off after the selected # of hours). I'm not sure if this unit is more or less economical than the forced air heater, but I'd guess more since it needs to be on fewer cycles to generate the same comfort level.

The only missing feature is an auto-start timer, where one could set it to turn on at a prescribed time each day.

Also, the top of the heater (the silver part in photo) is very hot to the touch when the unit is on. So, while it's great under a desk or in an out of the way place, I wouldn't recommend this for an area where small children might be able to touch it (unless they're well behaved and know what "HOT" means).

This unit replaced a older Broan unit that was rated at 70cfm and 3.5 sones and 1300 watt heater. The biggest difference is the noise. 1.3 sones is so much quieter and the extra 10cfm from this unit made a difference. Be aware that this comes with the odd GU24 CFL light bulb (the ones with the two pins on the end.)  Those are odd and more expensive. Ordered the adapter here in Amazon to remedy that when the bulb dies or when I will want to substitute a LED bulb.
Because this was a replacement, extra parts weren't needed as mentioned in the instructions (like terminal and strain relief connectors.) The installation was pretty straight forward. You must install from within the attic so be prepared for that. The heater is adequate for a smaller bathroom as is the exhaust fan. If you have a larger bathroom you would want the 110cfm or larger for sure.
Since this was a replacement I am 100% satisfied with this unit and its performance.

I've had it about a month now, and I have to say that this heater is much better than I expected it would be. We have one room that is cooler than the rest, and this heats it up in no time.

I found this at a local targeting store two years ago, and so far it's been working just fine. This heater looks just like the 751320 model, but the main difference with this model is it has full control over the thermostat and an 8 hour timer. It heats a 12x12 room easily and is very quiet while doing so. What I like most about this heater is that the fan adjusts itself based on the heat level. Set it to hi heat, the fan runs fast. Set it to low, the fan slows down making it even quieter. Not too many heaters can do that.

Few cons: Can't use auto setting with low heat and no tip over protection. A lot of ceramic heaters don't have tip over for some reason. When you first turn it on, it blows out a gust of cool air because the element has a 1 second delay.
