Works well but sucks power and .....

The Delonghi HHP 1500 radiator works well but it sucks power. Can use up to 1500 watts!. Also what they don't tell you in the ads is that you have to plug it in to its OWN outlet/circuit and can't use an extension cord of power strip. It kind of makes it so you have to reallt plan where to put it.
works as advertised

Even comfortable heat for a 19'by 13' poorly insulated room, with several windows.Heats better than the 220v baseboard unit and the electric meter spins slower.Quiet and portable.

this is a very good room heater. It does take a while to warm up the entire room, but once it has time to work, it easily holds the temperature at a comfortable level.
A good one

If you are interested in a quiet radiant heater, this may be a good one for you to consider. I set it up in my office, a room that is 18x16 feet and it heated up the room nicely. It does take more time for this type of heater to heat up a room than a fanned heater would, but the peace and quiet is worth it to me. I've got mine set up on a timer to turn it on and off automatically (it's so quiet, I forget it is there!). This heater is also portable and I do move it around the house when I know I'll be sitting somewhere for a period of time.
I do like the product enough to order a second one. From my perspective, the only thing missing on this heater is a small quiet fan (perhaps one that is powered by the heat itself!), plus a built in timer.
Save your time and money and pass this one by!

After researching this product and reading many reviews (admittedly more bad than good), I decided to purchase this product. In fact, I purchased through Amazon due to the fact there would be no hassle if the product failed to live up to its claims. The heater worked fine...for about 7 hours or so and then refused to operate. Customer service was no help. The room was 64 degrees and it was set to high and still would not operate. I'd say skip this lemon. However, if you decide to roll the dice, purchase through a dealer such as Amazon who will not hassle you if you should need to (and probably will need to), return it. And don't forget to open the box carefully so you have something in which to ship it back! Good luck!
