Here is what I like about it after two years of ownership:
- It works...will heat a medium/large room
- Portable: I also use it in my 3-car garage and it will warm your hands/feet quick
- 1,500 watts is about right...also has medium/low settings with lower wattages
- Old school oil radiators are quiet...no noise
- Not that heavy at all
- No smell after a few initial uses...no biggy
Here is what I don't like/wish it would improve:
- Topsy-turvy
- Doesn't roll very well on hard surfaces, on carpet it really doesn't want to move and can tip over
- No actual temperature indication...just two switches and a rotary dial
- It can burn you if you touch the radiator fins...be careful around small kids/animals
Conclusions: I really do use it and like it. It heats my living room, takes the edge off the cold in the garage, and can be moved around. It really heats...but, can take 30-45 mins to fully kick in and make a room warmer. I do home solar and using a space heater with 1,500 watts consumption is a big deal. My home solar system can handle it...but, it eats up a lot of my capability. The good thing I noticed is that the 1,500 watts is NOT continuous like other heaters...so, that is a major plus. Aside from it's lack of roll-around weakness...pretty good and safe space heater.

I stomped it out, immediately unplugged it...see photos. This heater is the only one out of a decade plus of using various space heaters of many different brands to ever simply burst into flames.

I want to leave an update. This week one of my cats became very ill and the weather here during nights has been cold. I had to separate my cat in a smaller room where he could be comfortable, rest and heal while I kept an eye on him. This little heater kept that small room comfortably warm for him on the min setting/ #2 all night and day.
To some this may seem like not a big deal but for me it was very important to keep my cat warm and comfortable while his little body healed from the sickness he had. This little heater is still in that small room, because like I've mentioned before it is the laundry room and is on an outside wall that gets very cold in winter (the last thing I need is frozen pipes that break).
I'm very happy to have bought this heater in time for colder weather and also happy that it has done such a great job in warming the area that it is kept in. During the nights with the wash room door closed the room was very warm and comfortable. On the nights and days of leaving the washing room door open the entire den attached was also kept mildly comfortable and warm (which is amazing because it is large with concrete floors and no carpeting, plus a skylight).
I cannot recommend this heater enough. It is a great find and was quiet enough not to make noise that would scare my cat while he rested and healed (he is doing much better now and is healing).

Initially, I did not like this unit at all based on leaving it running overnight on high and not feeling warmth in a medium-sized room.
What changed my opinion? I gave this heater a second chance and was amazed at just how much warmth actually does come out of it.
My grandmother used to have a larger radiator heater of this brand and loved it. That heater would warm up the living room (a medium-sized room) perfectly in winter, so when I saw this one I knew it was a must for our home. Earlier this month the central heating/air conditioning unit went out and is unrepairable, which has left us in a 1250 sq ft (appx 70-year-old) home with no heater. My house was weatherized last year by the utility company & I have put up thermal curtains in all the rooms, laid down rolled up blankets against the bottom of doors leading outside and since my home has hardwood/cement floors I've added small area rugs in most of the rooms to help keep in the warmth.
This is the first winter in 22 years that we have no central heat and I admit, at first thought, I panicked about how to keep this house warm during winter.
I've done my research on zone heating & know that space heaters can/will & do raise the electric bill in winter (my gas bill with the central heating unit was always right under $200 a month during the cold months) so I am hoping to at least save a bit on heating this way, as there is no other option for us this winter.
I have a small space heater in every room we spend our days or nights in and they do manage to keep the house warm when it is freezing outside (we have already had freezing temps this year).
This little heater might be small, compact and quiet (no fan) but don't that fool you. The amount of heat that actually radiates from this heater is enough to literally warm to comfort a medium size room (if left on day and night during a cold spell).
The very little noise I do hear from this heater is clicking or pinging when it is heating up and then there is silence.
I have it set on the lowest temp during the day and then raise that up at night when it is the coldest (I do not use the green button for saving the heat setting to the room temperature). This heater stays on all day and night when it is severely cold in my washing room because of the room being so small & having a single pane window (not a regular storm window like the rest of the house). The washroom gets very cold (cement floors with linoleum) and I fear the pipes for the washing machine will bust with the severe cold air, plus that is where the cats' litter boxes are. My cats have warm butts when it is cold at least.
What I thought is the radiator heater would warm up just the small washing room and not the den attached to it, which is the largest room in the house, but on high setting, this heater warms up both spaces nicely.
I've attached pictures of the heater on the lowest setting #2, which goes up to 6 and has a min/max button plus the eco setting (the large round button that turns green when it is on). The warm air comes out of little vents on top of the unit and radiates from the middle & back of the unit. Use caution because once this heater is fully warm the back part (has no handle) and gets very warm (enough to burn someone & actually hurt). The rollers are attached and fold under the unit for storage. This is a lightweight heater and can be easily carried from one room to another, if not rolled. Since it is a radiator, there is no fan that kicks on and off throughout the night to keep you awake if you choose to keep it in a bedroom. And when you need to store the unit on the bottom front there is a place to wrap the cord back up so it is safely out of the way. One thing I always forget to mention is this has a 2 prong plugin, instead of a 3 so you don't need an adapter to plug into the wall. The electrician that came to look at the central heat unit said that space heaters are safe if you don't drape anything over or around them and do not plug them into anything but an outlet dedicated to that one heater (no smart outlets, power strips, surge protectors or the like) and always leave space around the heater so it can breathe properly.
Just a couple tips for winter:
Weatherize your home (sometimes the utility companies offer it for free to homeowners)
Put down rolled up blankets or towels along the bottom of doorways to help seal out the drafts that can come in.
Replace curtains & mini blinds with thermal backed curtains that not only help seal the warmth in but also keep out drafts and noise from outside. Make sure the thermal curtain hangs at least 2 extra feet below the window frame to help prevent drafts or cold air from coming in through a window (especially picture windows found in older homes).
You can also roll up a towel and place it in between the door and screen door to help prevent drafts on a door not sealed or weatherized.
If you zone heat, place space heaters in a corner of the room away from anything that can catch on fire if the heater gets too hot, but also in the direction of where you want the heat to go. That way the heat will circulate throughout the entire room instead of placing a space heater in the middle of a room where it will only push air from that point forward and leave cold air behind it.
To avoid tripping the breaker box, use the lowest heat setting on a 1500 watt heater and space out the heaters on different circuits around the house (one in each room on a wall with no heavy appliances) and be sure to turn off the space heater if you plan to vacuum or run a device that takes a lot of energy. 70 degrees and below seems to work well in not tripping the breaker box in my home, as anything higher trips the box if I vacuum or use the hairdryer.
Hopefully, these tips help and my review as well. I'm on a budget and thankfully Amazon has some great prices on items that are a must have.

SUPER HAPPY!!!! GREAT PURCHASE. (Montreal, Canada REVIEW)
Reviewed in Canada on November 12, 2018
UPDATE (May 31, 2020) - I've had this radiator for 2 winters now. I'm thrilled with this purchase!!! The first winter I had it (2018) it was our typical Quebec winter - FREEZING so this thing came in handy. It was warm in my apartment so much so that I spent a lot of the time in shorts and a long-sleeve shirt; I did have to use my humidifier for a bit due to health reasons. My cat has also taken to sleeping/hanging out beside the heater.Reviewed in Canada on November 12, 2018
I moved in with my sister in 2019 and this past winter 2019-2020 wasn't very cold. I kept the heat in my room at the the star * setting and 700w and my room was HOT! The thermostat registered 25 celsius on the LOWEST settings. Hydro was cheap because this is QC and we have equalized payments aka didn't make a big difference in energy consumption. There were a few days where I turned the radiator off completely because it wasn't cold enough outside to warrant it being on however I have no problems when I leave it on all day/leave the house with it on. I did notice though that the green energy light has stopped working - doesn't make a difference for the actual machine functioning. Still no smell and the clicking is no different from a regular baseboard. Pictures are from winter 2019/early 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Received this radiator on Halloween actually. SO HAPPY I DID!!! I live in a studio apartment (less than 500 square feet... somewhere around 470-ish). It's a concrete building (so it gets COLD in the winter) in Montreal, Quebec. I love this radiator! It's sleek, fits in well with my decor and is small enough to be out of the way.
Some people say it gives off a smell the first few times you use it but I had NO smell whatsoever. As for the clicking... seriously people... it is the same clicking you hear when you turn on and use a baseboard heater. It really isn't that loud at all or distracting. It does though get hot to the touch so moving it can be difficult if you've been using it. I don't move mine. My cat sniffed at it once or twice but otherwise leaves it alone. She doesn't care for it so no worries there for those of you with pets. I haven't tested it out yet in our lovely -30 celsius weather but I will update when the time comes around. It has several wattage and temperature settings. I haven't left mine on when I leave the house because it isn't cold enough to do so during the day but when I use it at night, it's on at about 4 on medium (800watts). Today is actually the first day I left it on while I was gone to work. This is a safe unit!
I will most likely keep it a bit higher in the winter because I like warmth. We'll see what my hydro electricity bill is but let's be honest... radiant heat keeps the air warm and with the comfort temp (which I LOVE)... well they say it'll save me up to 30% on my bill... will let you know when I do my winter update. Of course we do have really good rates here in Quebec so it might not be super accurate when compared to other provinces/states but it is a good starting point. Oh! and it does wonders for humidity/static electricity. In the past, I was running my baseboard heater (hate these!) and a humidifier because it was just so damn dry all the time and staticky; I would pet my cat and I could see the sparks coming off her! Since I bought the radiator, I haven't used my humidifier once because it is perfect in here and my cat is not sparking anymore. This has also led to a decrease in the amount of electricity I am using thus further reducing my hydro bill. I definitely recommend this product.
