Looked, and looked. I don't usually write about a product. I chose this regardless of the price because it looked like it would do what I waned it to do. I wanted a heater that would throw heat several feet, and I could also turn it and point it toward the bathroom to throw heat in there while showering. It does that. The thermostat does what it should. I set it for 71 degrees, and it goes to 73 degrees, then calms down and goes into maintenance mode, to keep the room warm. Most regular thermostats will go a couple of degrees higher, that's not a problem. The remote works as it should. Being moderately disabled, I needed one that if the night gets really cold, it will maintain the warmth I need in addition to the blanket and quilt I use. I do use an oil filled Pelonis radiator, that I keep on he real cold side of the room. But that's another story. The Vornado can be a whole room heater, but my room is open to the living room, so that hinders its ability to be a whole room heater. Cold air still comes in. But it does the job. Price? You get what you pay for. I am keeping the receipt. It has a 5 year guarantee / warranty. From the quality, I don't think I will have to use it. Time will tell. I will edit this if necessary. Thanks. and thanks for other evaluations for this product. No, no association with the manufacturer.

Great once you learn how to use it
Our bedroom is at the far end of the HVAC ducts and as a result is 2 degrees hotter in the summer and 2 degrees colder in the winter then the rest of the house. My wife likes the bedroom very warm at night so we have frequently used a portable heater. Even the best rated portable heater model did a poor job of temperature control because the thermostat settings are in 5 degree increments. Enter this model with 1 degree incremental settings.The positives are that it is extremely quiet, it remembers all settings through power cycles, it is cool to the touch, and it maintains the room temperature quite nicely.The one negative is that you have to learn how to set the thermostat. My wife would like to keep the bedroom at 73 degrees so I set the thermostat to 73. Oops, that was mistake as it raised the room temp to a consistent 75 degrees as measured with 3 different digital room thermometers. So either the calibration of the heater thermostat is off or I just don't understand how it is supposed to be set. The room temperature displayed on the heater unit was actually quite accurate most of the time. However, it did rise considerably immediately after it ran which is understandable since the sensor is somewhere within the actual heater unit.The solution to this temperature control problem was quite simple. I just did some testing and established that I needed to set the thermostat 2 degrees below my desired room temperature. I made a cheat sheet which I taped to the unit to help with any future senior moments I now set the thermostat to 71 degrees to achieve a room temperature of 73 degrees.I am now fully satisfied with the performance and repeatability of this heater. Your mileage may vary.

I ordered 2 heater in October 2021 to help with my drafty 90+ year-old house and have loved them!
The heaters are gorgeous, they are not an eye soar to your home decor -- and I really appreciate that! The little remote controls are a great feature, the safety features are great and work. There is a high and low heat setting (I've really only used the high setting), there is also a fan setting, and a timed-off feature which I've used a few times and is very convenient.
For such a small heater, it does a darn good job of heating a medium to large size room (19x13 ft) and an excellent job of small rooms (12x12 ft and 15x12 ft).
Both heaters have worked really well with no issues so far.
My husband got one for his office and mine is in the living room where I work and relax. We both love them so much that I purchased 2 more earlier this week for our *ice cold* basement and one for our bedroom, so we don't have to carry them around room to room with us - which you could do because they are very portable units.
It definitely takes longer to heat larger and extremely cold spaces like our basement family room, but its to be expected and understandable. I bet if I took 2 units down there it would get nice and toasty very quickly.
All-in-all I highly recommend for their great functionality and superior/fashionable design that you will not mind looking at all winter long.
