This is a disaster waiting to happen
It seems odd that there are no negative reviews for this device. We have a neighbor that put it on their stove and it seemed great at first. Then after a month they noticed black tarry goo dripping from it. They kept trying to wipe it up, but it kept getting worse, eventually really messing up their new pipes and stove top. Then around 2 months their stove stopped drafting and he asked me about it. We found the Magic Heat was plugged solid with creosote and is almost impossible to clean.

However, they're lucky. The chimney sweep told them some disaster stories with these devices. He said they cool down the flue gases to the point where the creosote condenses everywhere. If this creosote catches fire, it is almost impossible to put out. Fortunately that didn't happen to them, but they're are glad they asked him to come out and check the chimney. Sure enough, the chimney was full of creosote. Maybe this is an ok device for an old stove that has a very hot flue, but not on a modern wood stove that extracts more heat from the fire and has a cooler flue. For some, it's a huge waste of money.

magic heat
I bought this for a gift and the recipients absolutely love it. The ease of installation and easy operation are awesome. There was an instant effect with the heating of their home. This is a terrific product if your thinking about it, GET IT, they are worth every penny.

Dangerous device
This is a dangerous device that cools flue gases - and can cool them beyond design limits! They can cause build up in the chimney and deteriorate masonry. The savings do not outweigh the long-term detriment.

Pass this one by
This book is OK for general tune up. But if you are going to pull apart the rear to change the clutch pack get another book. The rear shown does not even have the traction lok.

Disappointing
The index is poor at best. The pictures are poor at best. There is some useful info but alot is not very descriptive or flat out inaccurate. I'm going to check out the Hayne's manual to see if it's any better.

Love it
I bought a copy of this manual years ago when I had my 1990 Mustang.

I referenced it for almost every big repair that I was unfamiliar with on the car, and found it to be very helpful. Even after I sold the Mustang, I continue to reference this manual for repairs on my 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, which is based off the same chassis as the Mustang and is overall very similar.

I even referenced this book for bearing clearances and torque specs when I rebuilt the engine for my Turbo Coupe.

Overall, very good reference book and I have been very happy with it.

Great, Quiet Heater - Perfect for my office
Thanks to the previous reviewers, I decided to order this space heater... the only thing not provided in the description was an approximation of how big the space heater is... it's quite small. It stands just about a foot tall and maybe 8 or 9 inches wide... It's discrete enough to hide under my desk at work but powerful enough to heat my entire office. It's quiet, too, even on the high setting. I'd recommend this to anyone.

It is perfect for small studio.
Last year, I ordered another Honeywell Oscillator Heater, but that was so noisy. This product is less noisy than old one and easy to handle. Also I like simple black design and quite reasonable price. It is perfect for my small studio. Also I'm really satisfied fast free shipping. It takes only 2days!

Very Warm, but Noisy
I bought this heater because the reviews were quite positive, and it's cheap. (I just got out of college, so student loans lean my decisions toward thrifty spending.)

I opted for Free Shipping, which took about a week, and was well worth it.

My heater arrived, and immediately I opened it up and plugged it in.

The child-safety knob is a little awkward, but it works. It's like opening a bottle of medication, it's a little fussy sometimes because of the efficiency of the child-safety-ness, but it works. It took me a minute to understand the difference between Low-Med-High though. I had thought that the settings were for the fan speed, but rather they're for the amount of head that comes out of the unit.. So, Low heat, Med heat, High heat - and the temp of the heat coming out is set on the temperature knob.. It's a little confusing, but it makes sense after about a minute.

Other than that, it's great. I didn't think my room was warm until I went into the living room and realized how cold the rest of the house was. Haha. And, after you leave the unit on for a little while at high, on the warmest temperature, your room will be VERY toasty. It's great!

It's a bit noisy, so I don't recommend it for a baby's room or an office, but it's fine to sleep with if you're ok with ambient noise. And, most importantly, it's very VERY good at heating up a room!

Good things come in small packages.
I purchased this heater about three or four years ago. It has worked trouble-free since then. It is compact for easy storage when the weather is warm, and it works very well for heating a small to medium-sized room.

It has a cut-off switch, if it's accidentally turned over, and it has a variable heat knob with a thermostat. It is also possible to run the fan without any heat, for simple air-circulation -although my Vornado fan does a better job.

I must admit that if I had read a couple of the previous reviews of this product before I actually bought it, I might have been worried and maybe not have purchased it. But my heater has worked perfectly with many, many hours of continuous use. So, I highly recommend it.

As for company customer service, I have no idea because I haven't had to contact the company for any reason.

Just one person's experience. I hope this helps.

lots of output for a very small heater
this little heater is not inexpensive to purchase but it works as well as those twice and even larger in size. The porcelain "chips /wafers" , whatever , serve as the heating element instead of wire resistors as in other plug-in fan type heaters and I have not compared electrical draw but it's small, quiet, and it heats a space like much larger heaters would. I am very pleased with the product and would buy another if I didn't live in such a small space. Perfect for instantly heating your bathroom and it also has a temperature setting so you can use it to regulate heat in your space just as you would any temperature controlled heating device.

Awesome little heater!!
This is absolutely one of THE best heaters ever! I purchased this heater last year and absolutely love it! Two things that I was looking for in a heater were a tip-over switch and a thermostat...and this heater has both of those things. The excellent customer service was a bonus. I had a few questions and called the 800 number and got a live person (something you can hardly get these days). I noticed that two people wrote that their heaters caught fire, but maybe they didn't clean the filter? It has a dust filter in the back that you have to clean every once in a while. Anyway, I love this heater and I HIGHLY recommend it to everyone!

nice idea - had some problems
Just bought this unit. The design is quite nice as far as being able to rotate the vents and the flexibility to have one down, one up, both down or both up. You can set the desired temperature, but you should know that you can only set it to 60, 65, 70, 75, or 80. That's it. Nothing in between those. The main problem I have with this unit, and it is going back tonight for a replacement, is that my room is 64 degrees, and the unit won't go on until I set it to 75. And even at that, it shuts off after the room gets to about 65 or 66. To me, it seems like the thermostat is off by about 10 degrees.

Low quality. Noisy. Avoid!
The thermostat never works. It won't turn on no matter what temperature is set. Asked Amazon for a replacement. The replacement was even worse. Thermostat was off more than 10 degrees, plus one of the towers was broken. Had to send it back for refund. The only good thing is Amazon's service.

good for the money...
it is effective and somewhat stylish. however, it severely dries out the air, and leaves a twinge of plasticity in the air... not recommended for a bedroom (which I tried first) but will work in a draftier setting, like a living room or garage...

Be Sure To Buy Some Sunglasses With It!
It is everything it says but if you have it oscolating in front of you it is like a spotlight! The Halogen reflects off of the parabolic dome and blinds you everytime it faces you. If you like it dark when you watch TV at night this is a very bright night light. If you're just going to put it in the corner and not have it face you it's a great heater. We returned it in spite of all of its other great features.
if you want parablolic try the coil based heaters like Holmes or the Windchaser models. They are not as efficient but they aren't so bright either.

Buying this one. Again.
I really like this and my cats absolutely love it. I end up with a string of cats littering the floor in the direction that this is pointing. If you're pointing the (very bright) thing at yourself, you get nice and toasty (5 stars for toasty and energy efficiency), however this unit did not do a great job of heating the whole room unless I left it on for a very long time (3 stars for heating a whole room). Last of all, I'm buying a second one because my first one kicked itself off and won't go on again. It's about two years old which isn't so bad but I do like things that last (3 stars for staying power).

Great lamp and the price is cost effective, too
I've had the lamp for three years and find that it's my best portable heater. In the beginning, I found the bright light annoying, but have learned to overcome this by placing the heater behind me or to the side. The features I like about it are that it begins heating instantly and intensely. It's great for heating up just where I'm watching tv in my cold sunroom in the winter and uses a lot less electic than the room heat pump. While I'm lying on floor cushions, I have the heater to the right of the tv, aimed especially down and at my feet. The light is no brighter than the regular floor lamp that I have next to it. I think the cheerful light also helps me dealing with seasonal affective disorder (winter blues). I'm hoping I get a few more years use out of this marvel.

Terrific safe heater with no fumes
Electric Garage Heater

Step 1: I wanted to work comfortably in a 22 x 22 (9 foot ceiling) garage in the winter. Figuring I'd need lots of heat, I bought a portable 40,000 btu propane heater. It exhausts lots of carbon monoxide, so you have to partially open a door or window to the outside to let [cold] fresh air in -- which seriously lowers heater efficiency. The heater warmed the garage, but the approach wasn't satisfactory -- i.e., the fumes were so bad, I stopped using it. It was also very loud, like the hissing of escaping air from a large air boat; plus, when the propane tank ran out, the heater stopped; each time you needed heat, you had to drag it out, connect it to the tank, leave plenty of floor space around this self-contained-blowtorch; put it all away when you were done; and of course find a place to store it. Also, there was no thermostat. All in all, a royal pain in the keister.

Step 2: I bought one of these electric heaters. It has only half the btu's of the propane unit, but there is no need to open a window or door for ventilation. It also has a thermostat, so you can set it (to a number, not a temperature), and come back 30 minutes later and be in relative comfort. On days in the low 30s, it will keep the garage in the 60s, which is fine for working.. (My attached garage ceiling and 2 walls are insulated.) My heater is mounted high up on a wall, but it can also be mounted to hang from the ceiling, as long as the clearances laid out in the instructions, are followed. In any case, once mounted, it is out of the way, and always ready. There's nothing to haul out or set up when you need heat -- just turn it on. When done, just turn it off. This heater needs a dedicated 30-amp 220-volt circuit. You wouldn't want to use this every day, due to electricity costs, but for occasional use, it is perfect.

My advice is to skip step 1.

Note: This heater is also sold under the Dayton name, as the G73 Electric Garage Heater.

Excellent heater!
I bought this heater for my 23x44 garage, but had my professional electrician run the wire and install. It brought the temp up from 45 to 80 in a matter of just a couple of hours! I keep it on the lowest setting, and it stays in the mid-60s (depending on outside temp). I'm in the suburbs of Chicago, and it kept the entire garage comfortable all winter.

I don't have a single complaint.

Excellent, heats 1500 sq ft. basement in below zero weather
An excellent, easy to install heater. We needed to heat our open unfinished 1500 sq ft. basement. This basement has several windows and also walkout access through sliding glass doors. Even in the coldest weather this heater maintained a very comfortable temperature in the entire basement space. Our basement is insulated but I think this unit might have even heated it if it wear uninsulated.
Knowing the fan throw was not designed to cover a 55' by 26' basement we used two small 5 inch fans to circulate the air around the perimeter of our basement. This also helps circulate air from a dehumidifier. This is a much better solution than small space heaters or baseboard, you need so many units! This single 5000 watt unit only requires one circuit, so it is a much safer solution and far less costly to install.
The thermostat regulates the temperature quite well. We've used this heater for two years now with no problems. The delayed fan start is great, avoiding cold blasts of air, and the fan does not turn off until most of the heat is dissipated, preventing a hot spot.
Yet another advantage is this setup heats the upstairs floor as well making it quite comfortable in bare feet. And we were perfectly fine with the upstairs baseboards cycling less. Less creaking from the baseboards!
I was surprised to see the one disappointing review. The comment made by Mr.Agresti to the poor review addresses some potential installation problems by the reviewer. I personally think that 5000 Watts might be a little small for a garage, but Mr. Agresti thought it was fine in his garage.
This heater was installed just below our bedroom but it was barely audible when running late at night while we were in bed. It's a relatively quiet fan. So good quality, easy to install, and re-usable in other applications.

Toasty warm heater, but blows your fuses
If you want direct heat and you want it now, buy this heater. It is good for a confined space. My son used it in the bathroom (or should I say reading room). However, you have to make sure you have an isolated plug as this heater draws the juice. It's nice a quiet. I'd recommend an oil filled heater if you are looking to keep a room warm for a long period of time. This is just a heat-me-up-now type of heater.

Best exhaust vent wall cap in the industry
I have installed these on the last two houses I have owned. Having just moved into a new home, I will be installing as many of these as I can get to replace the exhaust vents (wall caps)on my outside walls. I have louver wall caps now and you can hear the wind whistling through the vent pipes inside the house when the exhaust fans aren't on. There ought to be a building energy code outlawing vent wall caps that leak air so easily. But the Super-Efficient Dryer Vent solves this problem of air infiltration, as well as that of rodent entry. You need this vent style in windy areas, and particularly if you have those dryer vents that have been installed at ground level. If the contractor has installed your vent in the foundation vent of your home, you are almost guaranteed an entry point for mice. With leaky vents at ground level, rodents can easily make their way into your home unless you have this improved style of vent. The top cover of this vent comes off easily so you can keep the device free of any lint buildup from that which gets by your dryer's lint filter, even though the lint buildup doesn't seem to prevent the vent's shuttle from opening and shutting as necessary.

Best Dryer Vent
We installed one of these vents shortly after we bought our home 10 years ago - and it's worked perfectly all these years. It stopped the cold drafts coming back down the dryer vent and has never jammed in venting out the heated dryer air. And no insects or small animals have crept up the vent, something several of our friends had to deal with recently. Worth the cost!

clothes dryer vent
The unit arrived in a timely fashion and was well packed for safe transport. Upon inspection I found that the unit was defective in design and manufacture since the "floating cap" would jam and not "float" and I quickly realized that the unit would not work as intended unless I made some functional modifications. Without making these changes the unit would in fact function far worse than the existing aluminum flap which I was replacing. This unit is designed to "float" or lift an internal vent cap unit by exhaust air pressure when the dryer is turned on. The floating vent cap is designed to be guided by vertical plastic fins which function to center the floating vent cap and to guide the cap to a close over the dryer vent opening when the dryer is turned off. The problem was that plastic guide fins were far too tight against the cap and the cap would not "float". Part of the problem was caused by the vent cap unit itself which should have been round but in fact was mis-shapped and was slightly out of round. The plastic cap unit was manufactured with a thin wall and I suspect that it became mis-shaped during the manufacturing process from being handled before it had completely cooled off and become set in shape. The cap unit should have been manufactured with some reinforement via a return or thickening at it's base to increase it's rigidity and help maintain a round shape but this was not the case. I concluded that getting a replacement unit from the vendor would likely not resolve the issues since these problems were essentially flaws related to the original design and manufacturing process. I resolved both issues myself however by using a dremmel tool to shave about a 0.25" off the thickness of the guide fins thereby increasing the clearance between the gude fins and the vent cap and by inserting a piece of rigid foam insulation inside the base of the cap unit to help the cap stay round and to somewhat increase its weight and assist it in closing. The unit now functions perfectly as intended. The cap no longer jams and it lifts effortlessly with air pressure when the dryer is on and seats itself properly when the dryer is off. I now have a warm dryer, warm laundy room and look forward to energy savings as well. I would say that this unit did not function as advertised out of the box. It's an excellent idea however and with the above modifications completed, the unit works very well indeed!

   

Flex-a-lite 640 Mojave Heater

Great heat in a small space
We put this heater in an old soft top Jeep and it's amazing. Most days here in Colorado we have to turn it down to medium once the engine is warm. The install was pretty easy too, it took us longer to get the old heater out. Highly recomended.

Manu defect
Would have given it a higher review if I didn't have to fix it first. Flex a lite put the motor fan assembly in upside down, reversing the blower. Works great....now.

Mojave Heat for the rear seat
I purchased this heater in order to provide additional cooling for my small block V-8 (addition of coolant to the system, as well as additional heat transfer) and the added benefit of providing heat to the passengers in the back of my FJ40 off road Toy. The unit was too large to mount in the back, but since I purchased the plenum box, I was able to mount it between the bucket seats and aim the 2 1/2" duct to the rear. This has worked out well. My first outing included many hours of steep hill climbing that would normally stress the coolant system, but I was able to crank the rear heat on high (noisy, but drowned out by the V-8) and keep the temp. down to 200 - 210. The unit seams very sturdy and I feel it was a good value.

• Model: MCH710T
• Dimensions: 23.23" h x 10.63" w x 8.66" l, 14.05 pounds

Providing dual-functionality, this multi-position ceramic heater can be used as a tower heater and a floor heater. Its heavy-duty steel-body construction and metallic gray finish make it perfect for both the living room or the garage--or any other room in the house. When used as a floor heater, the uniquely angled heat flow gets directed slightly upwards to extend the warming range. The heater's adjustable thermostat allows for easily selecting and maintaining a desired level of comfort, while its extra-large grille and safe ceramic heating element deliver an intense directional flow of heat for better circulation. Choose from two heat-flow settings--high at 1500 watts or low at 825 watts. For added convenience, an anti-freeze setting automatically turns the heater "on" when the room temperature drops below 44 degrees F, which means no more coming home to a freezing house. The heater also features a roll-back safety system that automatically repositions the heater to a safe position in case the heater gets misplaced on the floor; front roll bars prevent overheating that occurs due to an obstructed grille. Other highlights include simple operation, a four-hour timer, and safety thermal cut-off. The heater measures 8-2/3 by 10-3/5 by 23-1/5 inches.

Good heat output, mediocre control
I purchased this heater to help keep my "three season" sunroom warm in the cooler weather - not toasty warm, but above freezing and usable with a couple sweaters or a light jacket. It is solidly constructed, and the fan moves a good amount of air without being too loud. It has a timer to allow it to run and then shut off or it can run continuously, but the thermostat has no markings to indicate desired temperature. I also find that it tends to cycle on an off frequently and somewhat unpredictably, as though when it runs it heats itself up and the thermostat shuts it off prematurely. It seems to work better when laid on its side rather than standing up.

Since I purchased it to prevent a room from getting too cold but actual temperature is not a major concern it is fine. If you are looking for a heater for a primary living space where accurate and consistent temperatures are desired, this may not be the unit for you.

VERY nice heater
I was almost convinced not to buy this, buy the other amazon reviews. My own experience differs greatly. I bought this during the Friday special for $30 and free shipping. The heater is large, so make sure you note the heightxwidthxdepth numbers. This isn't a cheap small heater like the 2 dozen at walmart. The heater is much better than others (cheap walmart type) I've used in the past. The ONLY annoying thing was the timer that made a noticeable time-bomb type of sound as it counted down. HOWEVER, after close examination I noticed that there is a setting that doesn't use the timer, that also rids the user of that annoying tick. So, that detractor is gone.

Another reviewer noted that it was loud and shaky on hardwood. I disagree 100%. I'm using it on hardwood, and get no vibrations at all. The only thing I hear is the white noise of the heater working. And its no louder or quieter than what I expect from any portable heater.

a very decent heater
This is a very decent header. The housing is big relative to the heating element. I got this unit at a very good price because it was featured in a Friday sale. The only complaint is the control; it is not intuitive or it is unnecessarily complicated. Normally, one would not need to consult the manual to understand the control for a simple heater.

Coleman heater
I have had this little heater for over one year. The first time I used it was in a tent trailer and it was a bad experience.
The heater stunk the whole trailer with a strong pungent oil odor. The trailer was cold to begin with and I had to open the door and windows to air it out. Some camping friends with experience with these type of heaters explained you needed to burn off the oil residue in the heater to get rid of the odor. I burned one 16oz can on the heater outdoors overnight and this got rid of the oil odor. My advise with this heater is to try it out first at home in the garage or another outside building and break it in before taking it with you on a camping outing.
Aside from this initial bad experience, this is a great little portable heater that suits my camping needs.

Best little heater for ice fishing!
I bought this heater to put into my portable one man ice shelter. It's great. I've fished when it's -20 outside, but kept it a nice 32F inside. It takes up no room, it's a snap to use, and love the idea of not having the open flame.

Coleman Sportcat Heater
Small heater puts out alot of heat. I have been using it for several months to knock the chill off in my hunting stand (a shooting house). Lights quickly and and is very silent. Initially had a new burning scent until the factory oils from manufacturing burned off, but is now very clean burning.
