Lasko 5812 Rs3000 Utility Heater

This is exactly what I wanted, it blows good, not like the cheap fan heater I had before. I was surprised to see it was all metal, not plastic. It is sturdy and hot, I use it to blow heat on myself but it will heat a room as I have used it in the bathroom while bathing my dog and it got very toasty in there. Walmart has byfar the best price, I used ship to store and paid 40 bucks. The dial is ALWAYS turned to its lowest setting as it get very hot when turned up. The only thing I would change is its color, I wish it came with options, I would choose black.

This is my second Lasko air-flow heater. The first one, after yeoman duty for four years, has petered out. That is, it still works, but gives out very little air. I have cleaned--what I can--of the vents, but space heaters have a limited lifespan. I am grateful my first Lasko air-flow lasted as long as it did. I have unfortunately been living in apartments which do not have heat. I live in a cold climate, the winters here are cold. I am completely dependent on space heaters. My first Lasko was used 24 hours a day for four winters. I think I got my money's worth with that first heater. I expect this one, which is the identical model, to last as long. It shuts itself off if it overheats, like if a blanket should drop on it, which I have done. Yes, really. Great, great safety feature. I am so happy that Lasko still makes these wonderful heaters. Walmart has them at the best price anywhere online (I have been searching and checking). Walmart sells this Lasko at a very affordable price for a workhorse heater. I like the way it looks too.
