So far this heater has been what we wanted for our porch gazebo. It's comfortable for anyone sitting within 4-8 feet of it, but the temps have been pretty mild for fall in Maine. I've been able to sit in the gazebo in the mornings for coffee time, but the temps have only been in the upper 30's to low 40's. We'll see what happens as the weather gets colder. I like that the unit was super easy to set up - just screwed on the base plate. However, the two cushioning pieces that protects the heating coil were a bit of a problem. Evidently the unit spent some time in enough heat that the cushioning left residue on the heating coil - it stunk on the first heating trial, I hadn't noticed the residue. I was able to scrape it all off, but it took some inventive maneuvering (once it had cooled down) with a small bottle brush to get the residue removed. I suspect that this unit is fine for temps in the upper 20's to low 30's. Anything below that, it probably isn't going to be effective unless you are standing real close.

Heats up soooo quickly and gives off ALOT of heat. I like the different settings and ease of use. Sturdy for safety

It’s good! I’ve only used it once so far but it looks like it will extend my days on the porch by a few weeks.

Phenomenal heats up smaller spaces great!

Love our heater which we use on our back covered patio. We enjoy watching TV outside and this heater is perfect for what we need to keep warm and those fall arizona nights.
