Excellent Heater!, October 13, 2009
This review is from: DeLonghi TCH7590ER 30-Inch Ceramic Tower Heater (Kitchen)
I recently ordered this heater, and was amazed by how efficient it is. The sleek design, near-silent running, and handy remote control are all real winners! The "beep" that people have mentioned when you change a setting on the heater is not really that big of a deal, to me; it's momentary and signals that the heater received your request - overall the beep is truly not that loud. This single heater keeps a ground-level, 300 sq. ft, spanish-tiled floor comfortably warm the whole day and night through. I highly recommend this heater!

Great ceramic heater, November 22, 2009
This review is from: DeLonghi TCH7590ER 30-Inch Ceramic Tower Heater (Kitchen)
I was originally considering DeLonghi's DCH4590ER Ceramic Heater. Besides the different form factor, the two are almost identical (same wattages, same controls) except for one key difference. The TCH7590ER runs its fan at a lower speed when you run the heater on low power mode - much quieter than on high power mode. The DCH4590ER however always runs its fan at the same high speed (loud!), even in low power mode. This was a total deal breaker, and so I opted for the more more expensive TCH7590ER.
So far I've been happy with the heater, it doesn't exactly what I expected it to do.
Only 4 stars, for the following slight issues. 1) The fall over kill switch totally cuts the power. This is probably a design feature, but it means every time you move the heater (which also trips the kill switch) you have to redial in your preferences (namely temperature and power mode). 2) The fan is quiet on low power-mode, but not whisper quiet.

Superior Product, October 15, 2009
This review is from: DeLonghi TCH7590ER 30-Inch Ceramic Tower Heater (Kitchen)
I'm not going to repeat what was said in the previous 3 reviews, but I will say that all of the reviews were very accurate.
This unit is efficient and quiet. The confirmation beep is a bit loud as mentioned in another review, but not too bad.
The heater puts out a good deal of heat. I put it to test in my garage. The garage is 24x24 with 10 feet ceilings, and lightly insulated. This unit probably wasn't meant to heat such a large area, but it still did a good job. On an evening where the temperature was 40F outside and the garage temp was 61F, after running the heater for one hour on the lowest setting, the garage heated up 6 degrees to 67F. I was able to sit in the garage enjoying a nice cigar without a coat on. We'll see how it performs during one of our bitter cold Chicago winters, but I expect it will be fine as long as I sit near the heater--which is how I plan to use it. I also plan to use it in my basement office. I'm sure it won't have any trouble warming that room (8x12).
The unit is very quiet at it's lowest fan setting--you can hear it, but just barely. Running it on the high fan setting naturally generates more noise, but even at the high setting the fan noise is much less than a typical bathroom fan and very reasonable.
The heater is built quite well and doesn't take up much space.
I'm very pleased with this purchase--it was worth every penny.
