Been eyeing this stove for months, but have been afeared about the quality, given that the price is so low. But after looking at countless models that costed $25-$50 more, I decided on this one just because I like the design so much.

And it's adorable/beautiful! Just received it today. Took me five minutes to screw the legs on and I'm a "girly girl" LOL :)

It's plastic, but good quality. Small, but sturdy. The flame effect is just beautiful and the heats works well. In fact, so strong on low that, at least, I, could not stand directly in front of it without discomfort, it was so warm.

I can't speak regarding longevity or how much it will raise the electric bill. I didn't buy it for the heat as mine is included in the rent, but for the look of it. However, in the cold, New England winters here, I expect to use the heat at 15 minute intervals or so just to chase off the chill. I did not and probably would not purchase this as a sole heating source, and even the company will tell you that it is to be used as "supplemental" heat.

So, will be back in a few weeks to update regarding how it is working two-three months from now and how much it raises the electric bill as those were my biggest questions.

Hope this helps!

These worked very well on my mantel, had to bend them a bit to fit just right. They blend in well with any decor.

These holders were great for Christmas stockings, even the over filled, very heavy ones. They are even visually appealing, and went well with our holiday decor and living room furniture. I would highly recommend.

Buy The Original MantleClip - 4 pack - Holly Embossed Design Now

In the past we've used command hooks for our stockings and always felt they stood out like a sore thumb. We have a stone fire place with a wood mantle and have been searching for something relatively child proof that will compliment our decor. The clips were easily adjusted to fit our mantle and hold tightly in place. There is a rubber grip on the inside of the clip that helps to hold them in place as well as prevent damage to the mantle. My two and four year old kiddos have tugged on them a few times but so far they've held strong. The clips are light weight, so if the kiddos were ever to succeed in pulling them down, they aren't as likely to cause damage when compared to other stocking holders (assuming the stockings are empty!). The pewter finish with holly detail went perfectly with our holiday decor. They doubled as a stocking holder and handy spot to secure our garland.

These stocking holders were not only beautiful, but they really worked. I had several very heavy stockings hanging on my mantel, and the holders held them without any problem!

Want The Original MantleClip - 4 pack - Holly Embossed Design Discount?

We have a "home-made" stone fireplace, with a slab type mantle. The surface isn't very wide, and the lip on the mantle doesn't protrude out very far. Stocking holders that sit on top of the mantle do not work, and with space constraint a floor stocking stand doesn't work. I found these here and thought I would give them a try.

When I opened them I was very skeptical, because they were bigger than I had thought and I did not think they would work with our small mantle lip. I almost didn't even try, but I am glad I did. They work anyway. The weight of the stocking and the way the hook sits on the mantle works perfectly, even with the issues my fireplace has. I have no fear that once the stockings are full they will fall off the mantle. I am very happy to have purchased these, and recommend them to anyone. They are very pretty, very sturdy, do not bend easily and even if you don't think they would work, they will surprise you.

I just got the box from Amazon, pulled out my new Aerolatte, removed the protective cover from the battery compartment (yeah, it even comes pre-loaded with a pair of "aerolatte" double A's!), and put about 2 oz of NON-FAT (skim) milk in a glass.

I nuked the milk for about 20 seconds, pulled it from the microwave, stuck the aerolatte in the glass and pushed the switch.

DANG!!

Nearly INSTANT foam. GOBS of it. It formed PEAKS!! You could make small milk-animals out of it.

I really can't believe how well this thing works. The only thing that would ruin it for me is if it simply fell apart after a few uses, but frankly, with a little bit of care, it looks like it'll hold up. We'll see.

But in the meantime, call me Doctor Foam.

-Jonathan Sabin

UPDATE ***9 MONTHS LATER***

Notwithstanding the complaints of people who claim that their aerolatte lasted about 5 minutes, I just replaced the batteries for the first time since buying it back in January. (Yes, it still works, but I was disappointed that I was no longer able to make foam-animals!)

Well a couple of fresh Duracells later, and I sound like a deranged dentist with this thing in my hand. The "buzz" I had become accustomed to, is now a high-pitched whizzing sound, that actually made my molars uncomfortable.

But I'm back to making some seriously decent foam again!

I have owned this for about 5 years. I use a stover top espresso maker which works about as well as electric steam type. I have found that the electric pump type that are less than $250.00 don't work that well, and take up too much counter space in a small kitchen. This does work, but I found something that froths milk much better than this and much faster.

Use a small Bodum 4 cup French Press. Put your milk in the French Press (not the same one you are making your coffee in. Get a second smaller one) and rapidly work the plunger up and down for about 10 to 20 seconds. You have frothier milk in less than half the time and you won't need to change batteries every two weeks.

This works amazingly well. We've used it for a poor-man's latte by microwaving milk, then frothing it to simulate steamed milk, then mixing it with various coffees. We've also used it to froth hot chocolate. Doesn't work that well for making whipped cream.

I'm pleasantly surprised at the thick, firm, yet light, foam this product produces from homemade soy milk ... all that with my very first attempt! Now, I can experiment with some light flavors. Trust me ... this is a no brainer! My only regret is that I waited so long to give this little gadget a try. I'm at the bottom of my first large cup of coffee using this little frother, and the froth/foam had such staying power that I'm having to use a spoon to get the last it from the cup. Thank you Areolatte!!

UPDATE 12/22/06: Boy oh boy, how I love Aerolatte frothers!! I now own three of these little gadgets! I recently bought 2 more from the online Aerolatte distributor. The very newest top-of-the-line model is all stainless (even the handle), has a thicker stainless stem, and comes with a large stainless stand. Then, they have the black molded plastic one that comes with it's own sturdy grey, protective, plastic container with a cap on one end (not the one with the tin case) for on the road. I just can't seem to contain myself with how happy I am with this product! I hope this review is useful to some who might have doubt.

Performs as described, makes loads of creamy frothy milk for your coffee. (I found that frothed half-and-half gets thicker and is foamier for longer than soy milk. The joys of extra fat.) We can make tons of cappuccinos and lattes at home with our own coffee. Starbucks who?

I bought this approximately six months ago and at first really enjoyed it. It's well designed and ruggedly built and has considerable heft to it so it won't blow over in the wind. The highly polished stainless steel top really adds to the appearance of the flame making it appear much larger and brighter than it really is. A good design feature. The only problem right off the bat was that gel fuels leave behind a black gummy residue that's impossible to remove. Most likely it's the additives mixed with the alcohol that provide the rich yellow flame color and appealing crackle as the fire burns. But the real problem came about 2 months after I purchased the item when I learned that pourable gel fuel had all been recalled from the market (all manufacturers) and was no longer available. I wrote to Blomus and asked them if I could use the new fuel (replacement for pourable gel) ethanol alcohol. I was told I could not. I was told that gel was still available in "cans" (which I already knew) and that I could use a spoon to transfer the gel from the can to the unit. Problem is the process is a pain. The cans were designed to burn the gel inside the can and were not designed for a spoon. Too much is wasted and the process is messy. A pain in the neck quite frankly and much harder to control which causes it to spill on the polished surface stain it. In summary this unit was made specifically for use with pourable gel fuel which is no longer being sold. Yes, you can buy the small (made to be burned) cans which are really made for use in fireplaces designed specifically for holding the cans, but the process of transferring the gel with a spoon to the unit is a pain. If you could burn liquid ethanol fuel in this it would be worthwhile but since you can't I'm stuck with a messy headache. Before buying this unit I would recommend checking out some of the bioethanol fireplaces available. Larger more colorful flames, double the heat of gel,cheaper fuel costs and much easier to get. There are some really neat units out there too!

The foregoing review is my opinion of this unit and not a statement of fact.

Purchased in winter of 2009. I use to heat my insulated 20x17 garage, while I work on my vehicles or tinker with projects. It does a fine job. It takes about an hour or so to get the whole garage comfortable(65 degrees). I turn it on the 1500W setting to get up to the set temp, then turn down to 1300W setting and it kicks on and off to keep the temperature where it should be. If you're looking for a unit to keep a garage at a very warm temp(above 72 degrees)or warmer, you better have an unbelievebly well insulated area, and you definately need to spend more than $20. The safety tip over switch works very well has come in handy a few times.

I purchased this heater about 5 months ago before it started getting cold. Once the cold set in I started using this unit and and the first few weeks were fine. About 4 weeks into using the heater it started turning off by itself and turning on again minutes later. Now its to the point where it turns off literally every other minute its on and it stays off for about 10 minutes. Needless to say its not doing its job as a heater and if I could return it I would.

This heater has an engineering flaw in the thermostat that causes the heater to turn on/off repeatedly when it should be running constantly. Once the heater gets up to temperature it then cycles on/off.

Would not buy or recommend to anyone.

We got this popcorn popper and were so excited to try it out. My son was shaking it and when I turned my head he dropped it or something and a bunch of the popcorn landed in the fire. I figured he just messed up and emptied what little was left in the pan and the lid fell off. He had dumped most of the popcorn so I did the next batch myself. I was gently shaking it and it just didn't feel right. When I went to put the popped corn into the bowl, the lid fell off again. I'm not sure if this is something I did, a defect in this one popper, but I suggest you be extremely careful with this popper.

The popped corn was great and I will send this one back and get a replacement. I'm really hoping it's a defect in this one popper and the next one will be fine.

This product has much potential to be a 5 star product. The quality of the product material, at this price point, is very good far better than others that I compared it to. E.g. I bought a unit at Walmart for about the same price, which was a piece of junk (1 star at best).

Out of the box, this unit is problematic for the following reasons:

1) The connecting point between the handle and the lid is way too loose. In fact, this caused my first batch of popcorn to fall into the fire due to the connecting point coming free and the pan falling out. Yes, I had it connected properly. My recommendation to the manufacturer would be to connect the handle to the pan rather than the lid of the pan. But even with it attached to the lid, it could still use a more precise attachment. There is just way too much slop in the fitting and the little spring steel release actually acts as a ramp for the end of the handle to slip up on and come loose. I had to modify that little spring steel part to get my handle to stay on without falling off while gently shaking it in the fire while popping corn.

2) The lid is a nice idea but it does not secure tight enough onto the pan to hold the weight under it while shaking (not too hard of course) over a flame. Mine came off while popping a batch, and I was being very careful. I had to modify all the spring clips to get them to hold, but even then, they are still not nearly as tight as they should be. The fix, of course, would be what I suggested above to have the handle attach to the pan and not the lid. It doesn't really make sense to have the lid support the weight of the pan, oil, and popping corn below it when the pan itself could be used to attach a handle.

Besides these frustrating things, I really love this concept. The extending handle, the flip lid, the quality of material, etc. are all great and if these problems were corrected by the manufacturer, I think they would have a 5-star product.

I gave it 3 stars because I still think it's a good value for this price. If you are up for a little modification, you will likely have the best open fire popper anywhere close to this price.

Just don't be too surprised if you loose your first couple batches of popcorn due to poor fit. My family got quite the laugh when they watched me attempt to make them the perfect first batch of popcorn with this thing, only to end with that perfect batch end up on fire, literally, in the coals of our campfire. Fortunately, the pan only received a small ding from hitting a rock.

For a fairly expensive space heater that promises "infrared" techonolgy, I kind of thought I was going to be toasted from head to toe. It claims it heats solid objects not the air. True, but it heats only directly in front of the heater. It has no range, or radius around the heater itself. Thus, if you are sitting in a deck chair smoking a cigar on your porch during a northest winter (which is why I bought the item), your legs will be toasty, but from the waist up you're still freezing. It needs to be coupled with the same type of item suspended from some fixture to warm your upper body.

Once you get it together it looks and works great. The instructions are horrible and we had to cut the metal brackets that hold the fire place to the hearth. They were to big and the hearth would not sit flush around the insert otherwise. Also you need to build the hearth around the fireplace insert. There is absolutely no way to insert it and put the brackets on it after the hearth is built. So before you put the top part of the hearth on, install the fireplace part and then finsh by adding the top piece.

I'm so excited to come home to my Media electric fireplace which brings a cozy, warm and relaxed feeling to my bedroom. The dark brown espresso color adds a nice touch to my bedroom furniture which is also dark brown. After you assemble all the parts together that took almost 45 minutes, you will definitely see your moneys worth. It took almost two weeks for it to be delivered in two parts. The mantel and then the fireplace w/remote control. I panicked when I only received the mantel and didn't see the fireplace which was delivered later that day. It took the manufacturers to tell me that there are two deliveries. If there are any questions or concerns, please call the manufacturers directly. Trust me...you wont be sorry.

I love this fireplace but there are 2 manuals (one for the wooden parts and one for the fireplace itself). Given that they are separated we started with the one related to the wooden parts and we missed one step of the second manual, hence we had to disassemble or just keep going. We just kept going (we skip the step that prevents the fireplace itself from being pulled, so we hope nobody want to pull it :).

Other than that I do not have major complains but feel very warm in winter.

I returned the first unit sent to me because it arrived with a broken glass plate. Amazon quickly sent me a second unit which I returned because the heat produced was inadequate.

I placed the unit at the back of our covered porch, set it to its lowest height, pointed it down, and sat directly under it, but only the top of my head was warmed. Weather conditions were 48 degrees and wet, but still, manufacturer claims of a 9' blanket of heat just are not credible.

The manufacturer claims of a 12' electrical cord are factually correct, but half of the cord is needed to run down the length of the stand (inside the metal tube) leaving you with (depending on how high you set the unit) only about 6' to connect to an outlet.

Regarding assembly, much of the unit seemed solidly built, but there was almost no threading for some of the screws.

One other note, Amazon lists the base at 33", but it is actually about 22". Not a problem, the base is heavy and the unit stable. But it might give you the wrong impression as to the size of the heater.

This looks nice, but you get what you pay for. It;s not real beefy, even though it looks like it. It requires a dedicated 30amp outlet according to my electrician. If you run anything else on the same line not good. It's IR, so you have to be in the "heat light path" so to speak, but you really need to be sitting right near it.

Very good product. This model has a class cover on the heating head, which is nicer looking and better in protection of the heating head.

Very easy to put together. Be aware, there's ball in the heating head, when the heater is in standing position, there's a heavy ball that drops down invisible, when the switch is pulled. This is a good safety feature.

However, there could be defective parts, which happened to me. I had to call the manufacturer in Florida to replace it. Be sure to take pics and send to them for clear communication. Their customer service is pretty good.

The unit works well and looks great! Be sure to unplug it while not in use, and put the head cover after the unit cools down.

I live in New York City and own an apartment with outdoor space. Most outdoor heaters require propane tanks and propane tanks are not easy to acquire or refill when you rely on public transportation. I was hoping this Infrared Heater would extend the use of my outdoor space into the fall/winter, however that has not been the case. I received this very big box that required me to put some parts together. Assembly wasn't terrible, but more than I had anticipated. I put everything together, moved it outside to my 18x5 balcony and turned it on. After several minutes I checked to see how much of the balcony was warmed and was SERIOUSLY disappointed. In order to be warmed by this lamp you would have to sit within 12 inches of the pole.
