Wrong spec info and wrong reviews misled me into purchasing this item. This heater is 1500 Watts not 1200 Watts as advertised. I purchased this for 3 advertised reasons: 1200watts, fire retardant, the 4.5 review score and being deemed a "best seller". Turns out, most of the 5 star reviews are for a diaper product. So far, it is working ok but many reviews say the heater will stop functioning after about a month or 2. The remote comes with a battery and does not require batteries to be purchased as some seller ads say. I thought the seller was the manufacturer, but this comes in a generic box. The the safety features on the box are convincing. I can't gauge the actual temp since the readings are higher than the actual ambient temp (likely from the heating component itself) . Can't see the temp adjustment settings in any other mode accept Eco. But mine might be defective in that regard. I can't gauge the actual temp for what setting to leave it at. So I have to manually turn it off when it gets to a comfortable temp; otherwise it keeps running. After reading so many negative reviews about it failing in a month or two, I can only wonder how long it will work? Questionable. I recommend using on a cool hardwood floor and not elevated on a table, dresser or carpet. The people who have used it on a dresser have photos of the bottom melting. There are other sellers of this generic "PTC Fan Heater" and maybe there is a 1200 watt version, But the box says 1500watts. I do like the look and that it's designed to be quiet. But ECO is taking too long to heat my room (high ceilings and a draft). Lastly, it has a heat dissipation mode that cools the air when things go above the set temp. Trying to set the actual temp I'd like only starts to cools the room instead of heat it up. Since the temps read higher than if feels, I have to use higher guess settings. It does not feel 80 in here (I do have a draft) . Only the 1500 watt setting is getting things cozy. But in that mode, I can't see the /- setting for the desired temp on the display.
Do I set it 10 degrees higher than what I want? It has yet to turn off by itself. I'll try setting it really low to test the thermostat.
