This review is from: Sunpentown SPT SH-1507 Mini-Tower Ceramic Heater (Medium size bathroom)
When I first got this heater, I wanted to give it 5 stars. It's stylish, super quiet, feels well made and has a removable filter. I live in San Diego, CA and in the winter, the house interior temp. In the morning can be around 50 degrees. I use this in my bathroom, set it on the floor(heat rises), leave it on about 30 minutes before I start getting ready for work and my small bathroom is nice and toasty. When I'm done, unplug it and it fits very nicely out of the way to the side of my vanity.
Pros:
-Very quiet fan and smooth oscillation
-Has removable filter (I suspect my Lasko heater failed due to a clogged air intake)
-Very Compact, cute design, safety features, easy to carry, 7 ft.cord, feels sturdy and well made.
Cons:
-Non-ergonomic control. A slippery, stiff-turning dial controls all the features except oscillation. This is a matter of style over substance. A bar that turns would work better than a round dial. At least they could have put ridges on the dial, but no, it's smooth . It's not a deal breaker but I'm just say'n.
-Limited heating area. The quiet fan and low wattage comes at a price: it heats the room very slowly and the heat distribution stops at 2 feet from the heater.
I won't list the lack of thermostat as a con since it's clear this is not an included feature. However, The price was reduced and an additional XX% off coupon I am happy with this for my needs. I have only owned this a few days , there was a order initially but it has disappeared as with most small heaters. No issues so far
But if this poops out, I will update . Yes, I am happy with this heater so far.
