At First I received an item that was defective and did not power on, we liked the design, the color and the sturdiness of the metal so we returned it, received our refund the same day we dropped it off at UPS, ordered another one , was delivered 2 days later and we love everything about it. We have been using it for 10 days now everyday. The thermostat on it is versatile and simple, so easy to use and it responds to light finger touch. It heats up fast and the heat slowly projects into the room it is nice to sit near it at the breakfast table while the main heater heats up the house. We find ourselves turning off the main heater sooner and saving energy that way. The remote works very well. At first I wanted to install it on the wall but changed our mind because it is so practical and good looking on wheels and so easy to move to the living room. Soon we will have a solar system on our roof and I am going to order more of these 1500W Breeze heaters for other rooms as needed. Electric and Solar is the way to go here in Northern California. I have tried other brands of convection heaters of the same price, all returned in the last 4 months while preparing to go solar, none of them heated up as fast , spread the heat as well and had such a beautifull design .
