| golferinfr's Full Review: Holmes Products HQH309 Electric Compact Heater |
A little over a month ago Jennifer and I bought the Holmes HQH 305 Quartz heater from a moving sale. That heater has worked so well, that instead of transporting it up and down the stairs everyday we decided to go buy another.
I search Home Depot and Lowes the last week, what I found was the closest match to it the Holmes HQH 309 One Touch Quartz Heater. As I took it out of the box and stood it next to the other one, the only real difference was the panel board to change the different setting of room temperature.
The Holmes HQH 309 has a single One Touch button system that lets you go from 60 to 80 degrees in one constant pressing of the button. It can go from low to high as well with this button also. It uses about 1000 watts when on low and goes to 1500 watts when on high. The fan hardly makes any noise when running, but you can hear it when it starts up. It is somewhat quieter than its former model and the MAX FLO fan does blow heat in all directions.
The mirror panels reflect the heat into the room off the quartz lamps to give the room an orange glow when the lights are off. The protection screen in the front of this heater is made of stainless steel and there is a guard on the top that you can use for a handle when the heater is cooled off to move into another room.
The one thing I like about this model is that it has a restart button on the back in case of a power surge and it kicks off. The plastic body is so light weight and evenly balanced it weighs a little over eight pounds.
There is one thing I want to make a point with. Please keep your children and pets from getting too close to the front so they do not get over heated or try to touch the front screen.
With this Holmes One Touch Quartz Tower Heater HQH 309 your room will fill up with the most radiant heat in minutes. The One Touch system lets you control the heat you want and is absolutely safe to keep in your bedroom running the whole night.
There is their six year warranty on parts and labor if anything should go wrong. If anything should happen and you need help all you have to do is go to their website @ Holmes.com.
I am perfectly happy with both models, I just did not want any accidents to happen from transporting it up and down the stairs.
