We live in an open concept ranch home. This open concept room … this great big room … is on the north side of the house and gets c-c-c-c-cold in the cooler months. To heat this “Great Room” (and it *is* a great room - I love the kitchen, dining and living area all together) stays 5-10 degrees colder than the rooms at the back of the house. I’m not willing to set the thermostat to 80 just to heat the Great Room. Over the past 10 years I have tried a variety of ways to make this room more comfortable in winter. I’ve had varying luck with different sized radiant heaters, and finally found a “fake fireplace” radiant heat large piece of furniture for around $300 that worked OK for several years. Until it didn’t.
I was unwilling to spend another $300 for something that “kind of” worked and took up so much floor space so I started searching Amazon. I’d settled on trying an oscillating tower heater when Vornado brand popped up as a suggestion. Read some of the reviews then went to “encyclopedia Google” to research more on the company’s website. I was impressed! And a 5-yr warranty — even better. So I popped back on Amazon to determine which Vornado heater I wanted and found this lovely item that could actually be a relic from my childhood! All metal construction and no bells and whistles! I’ve had intermittent luck with temp-sensing heaters and the remotes sometimes do and do not work. I was hesitant to purchase because of the high $$ but I am very, very pleased with the purchase.
Now my functional heater looks attractive on the shelf, *fits* on the *shelf*, AND blends in with my Art Deco style. We get up in the morning and turn this stud on “high” then shower. By the time we get to the kitchen for coffee, the Great Room has warmed up from 66 to 70 degrees! We turn the fan to low and sit in comfort at the kitchen table. The fan is noisy on high but can barely be heard on low. We turn off the fan over the day but turn it on first thing when arriving home. Another 1/2 hour on high and the Great Room is warmed up again. This time of year we’ve turned it off after an hour or so on low because it actually gets too warm in the Great Room. I’m hoping it’s able to handle our sub-zero winters in Nebraska, but time will tell.
Overall, I am very pleased with the purchase and don’t mind the inconvenience of the analog system without temp control. My husband likes the function so much he bought a Vornado for the “man cave” in the basement, temperature-sensing off course so he can stay focused on the football game. I’m hoping it lives up to the hype and lasts a l-o-n-g time.

El producto coincide con las especificaciones del fabricante. El sonido no es molesto, además está muy bien hecho. Yo diría que es un buen calentador.
Como extras hay que destacar que es verdaderamente bonito. Tiene "ese algo" que tienen las Vespas, los refrigeradores Smeg y los escarabajos de VW.
Desde el punto de vista estético pudiera verse un poco anticuado, pero si la decoración del lugar es atemporal se integra sin problemas.
*El mío venía con unos pequeños detalles de pintura, pero me gustó tanto que no pienso devolverlo por un detalle tan insignificante.
En verdad es muy bonito.
En verdad está muy bien hecho.
Funcionalmente no parece tener fallas.
