Versatile Heating Capabilities

With adjustable heat settings and 75-degree oscillation, the Optimus H-4438 14-Inch Oscillating Radiant Dish Heater with Remote Control provides even heat in spacious, midsize rooms. The heater features a maximum output of 1200 watts, ideal for large bedrooms, living rooms, and other spaces. If heating smaller spaces, simply turn down the output to 800 watts.

The Optimus H-4438 oscillates a full 75 degrees, which evenly distributes warmth and eliminates cold pockets. Being a dish heater, it produces radiant, sun-like heat--not artificial and breezy, like heat from a traditional heater. It also features near-silent operation, since it doesn't rely on a fan to distribute its heat.

Economical, Convenient Heating Alternative

Heating an entire house--especially in midwinter--can be very costly. Fortunately, the Optimus H-4438 helps you save money by giving you the flexibility to heat whichever rooms you choose. The built-in carrying handle makes it easy to transport it from room to room.

Safety Measures Ensure Reliable Operation

The Optimus H-4438 has an array of safety features that ensure safe operation. These include a tip-over switch, which shuts off the heater if it is accidentally knocked over, and an overload protection circuit that controls power. Together, these features help eliminate fire hazards, while a special cool-touch housing helps prevent skin-contact burns.

Easy Operation with Remote Control

Designed for ease of use, the Optimus H-4438 features a front control panel, which includes a dial that toggles between the two heat settings, as well as a timer with one-, two-, and four-hour options. A full-function remote control is also included, allowing you to access all of these functions from a distance.

Built to last, the Optimus H-4438 features a durable, sheet-metal cabinet and measures approximately 20.8 by 14.0 by 9.5 inches (H x W x D).

The Optimus H-4338 14-Inch Oscillating Radiant Dish Heater is backed by a limited three-year warranty.

This review is from: Optimus H-4438 14-Inch Energy-Saving Oscillating Dish Heater with Remote Control (Kitchen)
Extremely quiet and heats objects/people well by radiant heat. Used in a large, open great room where heating the room's air is impractical. Replaced a small fan/ceramic heater which we would huddle around. This heater keeps us warm while sitting on couches a few feet away. Very happy with this purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, February 27, 2011
This review is from: Optimus H-4438 14-Inch Energy-Saving Oscillating Dish Heater with Remote Control (Kitchen)
I purchased this item maybe two months ago. I never used it much until I went to bed. When I turned it on it would be on no longer than 10 to 15min. tops before I turned it off to go to bed. Last week I turned it on as usual and it made strange noises and the second level of heating did not come on. No matter how many times I tried to heat it, it would turn itself off. I wish I could get my money back even though I have 4 other dish heaters in my home that work well for the last several years. But this one from another company pooped out. I didn't get my monies worth.
I'm disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great energy saving space heater, January 26, 2011
This review is from: Optimus H-4438 14-Inch Energy-Saving Oscillating Dish Heater with Remote Control (Kitchen)
I love this heater! It takes about 20s to heat up, but it's a great heater for a small room. I turn it on at 1200W when I get home and in about 20 minutes, my room is noticeably warmer than the rest of the house. Our house is huge so a central heater would be inefficient, so we use space heaters. Ceramic heaters that blow out air warm up rooms the fastest, but use 1800W vs. 1200W or 800W from this heater. It does oscillate and allows you to tilt the heater as well as change the direction of the heat manually, without having to turn oscillation on. Have not tried the remote yet as I keep it within an arm's length away.

I've hung a shirt over this heater before & took a bit too long in getting it off, so the alarm light came on because it was overheating. I was nearby and watching it, but it seems if you did something stupid like went away while you left your shirt on the heater, then it might burn out or cause a fire (or it might turn itself off). When you lift it up, the safety function comes on and it does shut itself off.

I bought a Soleus 14" as well (400W & 800W) and to compare with the soleus which is a bulb, I think the Soleus is more instant & has the 400W option, for those who want to keep the heater close by and not looking to warm the whole room. The Soleus is a lot brighter because it uses a bulb, whereas this one uses coils. I feel like the Soleus is a bit warmer at 800W than this one at 800W, but the Optimus will probably be better at warming up a room at the same 800W. The soleus, when you lift it, will momentarily turn itself off, but will come on again by itself (whereas this one will stay off & you need to turn it on again).

This one does make a bit of noise while it's starting up, but becomes quiet after. I'd highly recommend both the Soleus & the Optimus. Just have to decide whether you want 400W & 800W (Soleus) or 800W & 1200W (Optimus). I've been keeping the optimus in the bedroom to warm up the bedroom and the Soleus in the bathroom to warm myself instantly & for only a short while.
