Comfort Zone CZ998 700/1,000-Watt Oscillating Parabolic Radiant Dish Heater with 7-degree Oscillation, Adjustable Tilt, Tip-Over Switch and Overheat Protection Sensor

Very quiet This unit is very good and cheap on electricity compared to electric heater or oil heater

Calienta super rapido una recamara de 3x4, e incluso espacios mas grandes los calienta sin problema, aunque mas lento. El consumo de luz es algo que no he prestado atención, pero si siente que la habitación esta muy caliente, se apaga solo, como si fuera una protección. Muy util y se ve seguro.

I've had it for only 2 hours, and there's no reason to deduct a star yet.I bought this heater specifically because of its lower output --- i.e, I didn't want the operation expense of the more common 1500W heaters.I measured the unit's power consumption, and it's within 1.5 % of its spec (draws 985 watts on its high setting).It's adjustable enuf.I've no use for the oscillating function, so I won't comment on that. (You probably shouldn't, either; see last paragraph.)VERY IMPORTANTLY FOR NEW OWNERS: Only about 2/3 of the resistance coils power on when set on "high." I deduce that the high setting directs power through only 2/3 of the elements. That reduction in resistance increases current flow by 50% leading to more heat output. The low setting directs current through all of the heating element -- more resistance = less current and less heat. Therefore, if you notice that not all of the heating element is glowing on the high setting, your heater is probably working correctly. (The entire element will glow on low.)We had one of these things at home when I was a kid, and it came from my mom's girlhood home, meaning that it probably worked for at least 50 years. They "don't make things like they used to," but if mine lasts 20% as long as that one, I'll be satisfied.These parabolic heaters are actually ideal for projecting heat at one spot. They'll heat a small space with the oscillating feature, but that's not their best use. If you're looking to warm up 1 or 2 stationary people (watching TV, sitting at a desk, trading in bed) without wasting energy and money on heating everything in the room, this is the type of heater you want. If you're looking to heat an area in which folks will be moving frequently, there are better alternatives.

I like many aspects of this heat dish, but basically it comes down to this product constantly tripping the auto-off sensor for no apparent reason and turning off. Sometimes it does this even after it’s only been on for a few minutes. It then takes forever for it to randomly decide it’s okay to turn on again. I have it on a flat, hard surface away from everything else. It’s not overly hot in the room, I don’t even have it on high or oscillate. I can’t think of any reason why it’s turning off all the time, but it’s extremely annoying. Otherwise it would be a great product. As it is it’s nearly useless. Don’t buy, get a different brand in my opinion.

Regrese el calentador porque estaba defectuoso
