5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly Meets Our Need and Works Great, January 5, 2011

This review is from: Dimplex CS33116A Compact Electric Stove (Kitchen)

We've had this heater for several months and use it every night. It's used to supplement heat in a 15'x18' bedroom and heats that space up very quickly. I think the 'flame' looks quite realistic...just understand that it's not a real flame but they did a pretty good job representing a flame. The heat is blown from the bottom of the unit out to the front. The noise level is low, but the fan does stay on throughout the night whether the heat is on or off. But, we have two other Lasko ceramic room heaters and they are definitely louder than this. The thermostat function works very well. Please note, though, that the thermostat is not set by degrees. The first time you turn on the heater, you turn up the thermostat knob to the highest mark then when the room reaches the temperature you want, you turn the knob back until the heating turns off...that becomes your room heat point for the unit. It does work fine once you set it up. The remote turns the unit on and off only - no heat adjustment, but we haven't had a need to adjust the heat once we set the thermostat and I like the on/off remote. The unit seems to be constructed well -- I've seen different brands like this made of mostly plastic but that's not the case with this one. It's pretty compact as well so it fits nicely in most spaces. I wouldn't expect it to heat a large area (I haven't tried though), but I don't think it's made for that. Overall we're very pleased with it so far and hope that it lasts a long time.

I have always wanted a fireplace in my bedroom. At the back of the house, the room get's chilly at night and, also, I love the ambiance of a fireplace. My Dimplex Electric Stove arrived two weeks ago. I read the manual, plugged it in, put the battery in the remote and there it was! An instant wood-burning stove. It is so attractive and so easily moved from room to room. Honestly, the flames look real. Even when the stove is turned off, the logs are designed to have a little glow that looks like the dying embers of a fire. There is a very quiet fan underneath that blows out the heat and when I set the temperature control, it's just right to take the chill off in the bedroom. I almost didn't buy it because of some reviewers who were not happy with the thermostat. Maybe they did not read the manual. You have to turn the temperature control knob all the way to the right, until you hear a soft click. Then you turn it counterclockwise until just the right amount of heat is coming out. It will "set" that temperature and keep it there. I've had mine on for 8 hours and it still puts out the same gentle heat. The other thing I LOVE is that the manual says you can turn off the heat and still have the flames and the glowing logs without heating up your room. Awesome because on summer nights where I live, it's never cool enough to have a fire in our regular living room fireplace. If I ever want to enjoy the glow of a fire on summer nights, I will be able to click my remote control and have the beautiful glow and atmosphere without heating up the room. I checked out the Dimplex web site before I bought this and was so impressed with how they use the latest innovations to make the flames and glowing logs/embers look real. They really do. The stove itself is so cute. The door really opens. By the way, the unit itself does not get hot. So, there is no danger of burning yourself if you touch it. I am so pleased. When we have guests, I might just put it in the guest room for them to enjoy since it is so easy to move.
