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.

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.

This heater is everything I hoped it would be. It puts out great heat at little cost from my electric company.
