Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell Low-Profile Silent Comfort Heater
Customer Review: Good space heater bad power switch (On/Off)
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used this in a medium size bedroom and does a good job. It's not a fast heater. Quiet. Within a year the on/off switch did not work. I got three of these and two of the three the power switch (on/off) stop working within one year. I contacted Honeywell and they wanted me to ship the heaters to them rather than send me a new switch. Shipping would have cost me around $20.00 for each heater. Add this to the cost of the heater.....$$$$$. Consumer Reports should have waited for reliable feedback from readers. I now give it a two star rating.Customer Review: Quiet But a Bit Slow
Summary: 4 Stars
Pros:
- No carbon monoxide emission (compared to heaters than use kerosene and profane fuel)
- Very quiet. Even oil-filled heaters produces noises when it heats up (like somebody is frying inside).
- Has a screen to prevent burns when you touch the surface
- Adjustable thermostat
Cons:
- Very slow to heat the room
- Unless the air circulates in the room, the heat tend to concentrate on the side of the room where the heater is placed.
- Huge footprint
Customer Review: Very Good but Very Bad at the Same Time
Summary: 3 Stars
Very efficient heater and works amazingly well, but absolutely NOT for families with kids. I have three kids. I purchased two of these after reading Consumer Reports' great reviews. I wound up selling them to my senior citizen parents who have no kids at home. The grill gets dangerously hot. If a child fell into it or even touched it, they'd be in the hospital. So if you have no kids, by all means, buy these. They heat so good, you don't need to use your house furnace. But if you have kids, sorry, not for you.Customer Review: Good while it lasts
Summary: 2 Stars
These work great and heat a one bedroom apartment quite well. We had ours near a wall with no worries. It was quiet and after the first couple hours it would keep the place very warm. Then after a year it would stop working. All three of them I've seen used died after a year. The thermostat part would still work but the heater wouldn't engage. They're sealed in a way conventional tools won't open so we couldn't fix it. So if you don't mind getting a new one every year I would highly recommend this one.Customer Review: Heater
Summary: 3 Stars
I've been using this in an unheated sunroom. It works well and keeps the room warm. It does not have a setting dial so its 'hit & miss' by turning the dial. That is annoying because you need to keep checking the room temps and turning the dial up or down. Also, there are two lights which should go on and off when the heater turns on. They do not work. I didn't want to go through the trouble of returning it because of the lights.
Otherwise, it keeps the room warm, and is slim and attractive.
