Durcord 1200W Energy Heater,PTC Ceramic with Thermostat,Overheating & 45°Tip-Over Protection for Office Home Blue

This little guy jumped right off the porch and ran with the Big Dogs! I was not expecting much, as I have gone through a wide assortment of space heaters since my boiler went out and I can't afford to replace that right now. Illinois is having the weirdest winter I can recall in 67 years, and that cold snap we just had could easily have been my last one, IT WAS COLD. I have space heaters that were over $300 that claimed they could handle up to 700 square feet, that my little dogs and I were huddled under a blanket tent with, and were STILL freezing. There is a very small bathroom downstairs that I was afraid the pipes would freeze, because they are run on the outside wall (who thought THAT was a good idea?).And I, admittedly, practically dehydrated myself, just to cut down on the number of times I had to put myself on that throne. I figure that is the coldest spot in the house. Surfing (what an odd term, right now!) through the internet looking for the next inefficient heater I could lay another few hundred dollars on, I almost passsed this one by. Too CHEAP. Can't be any good. And about that time, my alert went off to let me know my last $300 was just automatically sent to the untility company to keep that electricity on. I backed up, and reconsidered, I just KNEW I would regret it, and I ordered one. It came in less than 24 hours! We were destined to be together. I opened the package, the deceitfully SMALL package, and pulled out the green egg. I figured, at least it won't take up as much room under the cardboard and blanket tent tonight. (Yes, I really am making a tent to sit and sleep in because it is just that cold, and it's kinda fun, okay? Well, let me tell you, I plugged that egg in, over in that tiny bathroom, and in less than 3 or 4 minutes, it ran me out of there. Yeah, there was that fleeting split hyper second that the thought crossed my mind to get the blankets and pillows and dogs and...then I slapped myself and yelled at me to snap out of it. If this thing could warm up that sub zero little bathroom that fast, it just MIGHT do something noticable in the bedroom! And it DID. It did take a little longer to actually feel the warmth coming over me, but still, under 10 minutes. It's a 14 X 15 room, with 13 windows, which I covered with radiant barrier insulation ,, that foil-covered bubble wrap. THAT stuff is amazing, with this little dynamo heater, and the reflective properties of the radiant barrier, in no time at all I was feeling the heat blowing toward me, and coming back after bouncing off the foil-covered windows. It was completely COMFORTABLE all night. What a blessing, because there is NO heat in this house other than what I can get from optional sources, and I have tried quite a few. This little guy is the WINNER! Hands down!

i was very skeptical about how much heat this little heater would put out. This lil heater can really put out the heat. I think it is a great lil personal heater and I would definitely buy again if I needed it.

After using the machine for one and a half months, I noticed a strong burning smell, which raises safety concerns. Additionally, there is no way to communicate with the seller via email, leading to a poor experience.
