Others say...
"A smallish, overpriced heater with no thermostat" For some uses this will be fine. It's a low output heater, which is a good fit for some situations. The fact that it's wall mountable helps keep it out of the way. Though at 24" square, it's not really that small. And like other panel convection heaters, it's very quiet (though that also means the heat circulates slowly). But the price is ridiculous. And to say it's economical or green to run ... it's no more or less economical than any other electric heater. It's merely low output. You can easily get the same result with any heater by running it less. There's no something for nothing here ... creating a certain amount of heat takes a certain amount of energy. And, it would be more economical if it had a thermostat to shut itself off when it got to the temperature you wanted. While not as small or unobtrusive, the DeLonghi HHP1500 Mica Panel Radiator has two power settings and a thermostat, can be wall mounted, and while hot to the touch is not dangerously hot. "good heater, " good heater, haven't seen utility bill yet but puts out a good amount of heat. Would be better if there was a thermostat to help regulate. "It's okay but not as great as some reviews would have you believe" I was torn between giving this a 3 star or a 4 star review and I decided to be generous and give it 4 stars because I think the heater basically performs the way the box says it will. The problem is that I put too much weight into these 5 star reviews that had me believing that this was going to be the best purchase of my life. I don't know how anyone can say they heat their whole house with one or two of these heaters. I don't see that happening unless you live in a warm climate and your "cold" weather is only around 50 degrees. It's an okay heater but I'm not nearly as happy as some of these other reviewees are. "too hot for children" I was so excited when I got my eco-heater and after plugging it in I was very dissapointed. The surface gets way too hot -- too hot to be around children. I will mount it below my desk to get some extra heat in my office and where the kids don't have access. I wanted it for the living room -- my kids are young and curious and if they touch this for any length of time they will get burned. I do not recommend these for homes with curious children. "Eco-heater" The product was easy to install as stated. It does take a little longer to heat a room but it does the job. Overall it is a good product....just waiting to see what the electric is to see if it is really efficient?

What our customer's say! "OK, but won't heat a whole room in New England in the winter", I bought this heater to install in the nursery so the baby's room would stay warmer overnight while the rest of the house went down to 60 degrees. The house has attic insulation, but no wall insulation, and there are storm windows. The good about the heater: It is unobtrusive. We have it installed on an interior wall out of the way. It is easy to install; it took about 10 minutes. It keeps the baby's room warmer than the rest of the house. I also like the fact that it uses less power than a standard heater. Not only is it cheaper to run, I have fewer concerns about overloading circuits. I like the fact that it has a paintable surface, although I haven't decided if I am going to paint it. I have heard that painting radiators reduces their efficiency and I don't know if that applies to this heater. The less than good: We have had this heater on in a rather small room (10 by 10) with a hot water radiator system, and over night it only seems to bring the temperature about 5 degrees above the temperature in the rest of the house. Based on other reviews of this heater and others, I ordered the plug in thermostat. I think I will return it because I won't ever need to turn off the heat because it is too hot. Also, the passive heating means that it takes a while for the heater to have any impact on the temperature of the room. I turn it on at 6 pm so that the room will be comfortable when the central heat goes down to 60 degrees at 10 pm. My final concern is that the heater says it can be mounted at any height, but that it works best closest to the ground -- 6 to 18 inches above the baseboard. I was hoping to install it higher so my baby wouldn't accidentally burn himself on it. Since heat rises, I should have realized this flaw in my logic. I don't think this is a bad product, it just isn't as good as I wanted it to be for $150. "Limited Possibilities", After reading the positive reviews on this item, I was excited to mount this in my kitchen wall, which is located above the garage. The floor of the kitchen, as well as the kitchen itself, gets quite chilly once the temperatures dip down into the 30s. While the kitchen dimensions are larger than the recommended 10x12', I was expecting it to make SOME difference in the overall temperature of the room. According to my thermometer, which I located on the other side of the 14x16' room, it MAY have raised it one degree. There's definite warmth coming from the unit, but I think for a heater to perform in a cold room, the warm air needs to MOVE into the room rather than loom a short distance around the unit, so to speak. On the plus side, it is hardly noticeable. It does get quite hot, so to keep my dog from burning her curious snout, I set a small gate I had handy in front of it. I'm not sure if this is really necessary, though. "Eco-Heater", I bought the eco-heater because my daughter's room is always the coldest in the house during the winter. It's on the North West corner of the house and is the furthest room from the furnace. I've always been a little leery of space heaters in kid's rooms and have been looking for a good alternative. I ran across the eco-heater and decided to give it a try. Other then the mounting hardware could be better quality (broke out a wall anchor right away) it's been great. While I don't think that it would work as a sole heat source it does a great job of taking the chill out of the air at night. I am still waiting for the thermostat to get here so I just put the unit on a timer. When I go in to my daughter's room at night it's now the warmest in the house. It does take up a lot of wall space but it is relatively out of the way. The surface does get hot but not so hot that you would instantly burn yourself. You wouldn't want to keep your hands on it either. I would say it's like holding a hot cup of coffee. I think this is a great little heater and I would not hesitate to buy another. "This heater really works", Had to put it on an outside wall, which isn't preffered but that was the only option, within an hour room went up 6 degrees. Easy to install and works and cheap to run. Like other reviewers, good for supplement heat. It takes the chill off and I'm in Boston and used it on 22 degree day. It is quite warm to the touch. All in all, I have bought 2 and looking to buy 2 more. ITS WORTH IT...... "eco-heater is great!!", I purchased the eco-heater, installed it immediately and love it! It heats my living room with no problems. I haven't used the wall heaters since. I highly recommend this product! ![]()
Read this reviews before You buy... "Works Great", Works like a charm. Only downfall is no thermostat, so it is on or off. However you can purchase a plug-in thermostat. "Morgan's Mommy", I was really skeptical of this prodcut, but intrigued enough to purchase, and I'm quite pleased! My daughter's room is right above the garage, and gets quite cold, even though it's "properly" heated and insulated. We installed the eco-heater 2 weeks ago, and it's working great. It's essentially a ceramic tile with a heating element in it somehow, and it works great in her small room (about 10x10). I painted it, so it really looks like part of her wall, which is a big plus for me. One suggestion that was mentioned by another reviewer is to use a thermostat. We're using one, and it's keeping the room a perfect 72 through the night. "Excellent, for what it is", Based on many of the reviews here, we had purchased 4 of these heaters to supplement our expensive oil heating. I work from a small home office and so heating the whole house during the day was unnecessary. Instead we run the furnace once in the morning, and then once or twice at night, relying on these heaters to maintain the temperature. We installed one of these heaters in an upstairs 10x10 office, another in an upstairs 10x10 bedroom, and the 2 others downstairs, shared between our living room and dining room (about 12 x 24 in total). They were easy to paint, but as we have old horsehair plaster walls, not all of them were easy to install; it took some creative work and a trip to Home Depot. In the bedroom and office these work quite well. The bedroom is quite toasty (the only insulated room), and after a few cold New England nights we've found that it has performed very well. Winter air is already dry, so we don't keep the heater on all night, but rather heat up the room before bed and then have it turn on at about 5am (we use appliance timers). The office heater could only be located all the way on the other side of the room from where I work, but it does a decent--not great--job of maintaining a temperature of around 60 - 65 degrees (and sometimes warmer towards the afternoon after it has been on for a few hours). The downstairs heaters have a much harder job, because the living/dining areas are open to other rooms (kitchen, foyer), but they do an OK job of supplementing the hot water heat (probably by just a few degrees, though). Surprisingly, our electric bill was only marginally higher, and far lower than running our A/C in the heat of summer. People really have to remember that these are intended to be ECONOMICAL units, not ultra, super, turbo-charged heaters. Some notes: - Yes, you can definitely burn yourself on the surface of this heater. It's not as hot as a red-hot space heater or a stove top, but it'll still leave a mark. - Placement is really important, so read the safety/installation instructions and make sure that you have a sensible place to put one. ie: Avoid installing near doorways, windows and open entryways. - If you have horsehair plaster walls like ours, you'd do best to line up one side of the heater with a stud, and then reinforce the other two screw holes before installing (I drilled out a 1/2" hole for each and then used multiple applications of spackling paste over a few days before drilling the final pilot holes). - It's best to turn on the heaters AT LEAST 2-3 hours before you plan to be in a room. We have all of them connected to appliance timers...and be sure to keep doors closed while the room heats up. Hope this helps. "Misleading Description", The product arrived as expected, however it took a couple of days of powering the product to eliminate the obnoxious smell. I purchased this for my daughters room after reading the description as "safe for small children" however it actually reads "safer" for small children. While my daughter is still young (4 mo), she would ABSOLUTELY burn herself on this unit. We will use this while she is not mobile, and likely have to discard it based on safety concerns alone once she is mobile. If you do not have small children at home this is a good option, otherwise you need to keep children away from the product to avoid the burning risks. "The BEST heating option if you have children and/or pets!!", I have both, twin 4 year old boys and a high strung Weimaraner named Amara. Anyway, we needed a heater for the 2nd largest and furthest bedroom from our forced air furnace. Even though our home is only 6 years old and very well insulated, the furnace just can't keep that room warm enough for true comfort. Earlier this spring our boys moved into this room and I knew that the heat was going to be an issue in the winter. The room has always been a few degrees cooler than any other room in the house during the winter months. The room measures 11x13 (143 sq ft) with a 14 ft tray ceiling and a 52" ceiling fan so it's a little larger than the 120 sq ft the manufacturer recommends but it has done a great job at keeping the room the same temp as the rest of the house. We keep the thermostat at 65 degrees during the winter and so far so good! What we have done thus far is turned the unit on and off but ordered an outlet thermostat to control it more efficiently. As for installation, it could not be easier! The hardware provided is actually good quality. It came with 4 EZ Anchor style drywall anchors, 4 large drywall style screws and some cheap insert style anchors that I did not use. I aligned my unit next to an outlet so I could sink 2 of the screws into a stud and have the outlet right there to plug it into. I felt better anchoring at least 2 of the screws into a stud. I used the EZ Anchor type anchors for the other 2 screws. The template that was provided worked great! Just level the template, use one of the screws provided to poke a hole through the marked template to mark the wall and hang the unit. I was able to do it myself in about 5 minutes, literally!! I am fairly handy so maybe plan on 10 minutes if you aren't. Heat output is AWESOME!! It heats up 100% in about 10-15 minutes and you can really feel the difference right away. The unit does NOT get as hot to the touch as one reviewer eluded to but it is definitely sufficient to heat the above mentioned room 2-3 degrees and keep it very comfortable with the door closed. The dog just sniffed the unit and walked away and both of my boys were given a class/lecture/briefing on not touching or playing around with the unit. I did have both of them touch the unit after it was fully heated to show them it will not burn them but to never play with it nonetheless. Overall I really like the unit and am going to order 2 more for my basement. My dad is also interested for his house as well. Hope this review can help you make a educated decision on this unit. I am really impressed with every aspect and I was skeptical when doing the initial research. ![]() |
