Pros: Puts out heat fast
Cons: it broke after two years.
Summary: We had the Pelonis HC-451 Ceramic Utility Heater. I purchased it at our local depot a couple fo years ago. It was full of hot energy, small and efficient. Too bad it said goodbye and broke. It was excellent while it lasted. This is a very small ... read more

Pros: small; light; high throughput fan; easy to point where you want it
Cons: cord gets very hot
Summary: I do light maintenance work on my vehicles, and in Minnesota in winter it's nice to have a little heat in my garage while I do so. If I often spent hours at a time working on them I'd probably invest in an expensive heater specifically designed to heat ... read more

Pros: Heater seems to work ok when not on fire.
Cons: Fire Hazzard.

Pros: easy to set up anywhere, impressive heat output.
Cons: noisy, filter clogs easily
Summary: I've had this heater for years (perhaps 5). It appeared in my parents basement one day already dented and scratched, so I started using it to heat my workbench. It puts out plenty of heat, noticeably more than other 1500W units I've encountered.

Cons: The unit started to burn.
Summary: We bought this in 2004 for a guest room which has no heat, and have only needed to use it occasionally since then. Yesterday our guest said he had had it on for 4 hours in the early morning and noticed an electrical burning smell. He looked at the

Pros: Compact size & quiet operation.
Cons: Continues to run on low heat 24/7 even when temperature is attained, negating advertised efficiency.
Summary: Have the HC-451 and older top model HC-461. The older model is series 0407 and is a great area heater. I obtained two more heaters from the direct distribution point in Texas. When units came (series 0607), I discovered that the heat would not shut off.
