In my opinion, DeLonghi oil-filled portable radiators are one of the best options for safe, reliable room heating. There is nothing to spill, no open flames, and nothing gets so hot that it would burn you instantly. You don't have to fear falling asleep while they are heating. They're nicely designed and unobtrusive, making no noise other than the occasional tick or pop as the thermostat cycles and they heat up or cool down. I find this a comforting reminder that my heater is doing its job. No assembly is required other than rotating the feet out--just pop it out of the box and it's ready to go! The cord has a holder around which it can coil, eliminating the need to tie it up, and since you just wind the cord around it, you don't have to worry that some automatic retraction device will get stuck. This model can be used with the thermostat or without, and both are very simple to operate. All controls were easy to see, even in dim light, and the instructions were clear. It's very easy to move the heater from room to room, even if it is hot, using the little hand-hold. This heater kept a very large bedroom and bath pleasantly warm even on the low setting, while outside temperatures were 36 to 43 degrees, wet, and windy. The color is a tasteful grayish white with dark gray accents, so don't be turned off thinking this is "refrigerator white." I would definitely buy another DeLonghi like this one!

Last year I had 1 that only heated 3 rooms and one room closed off, set on 3 all Winter long, This year I purchased a 2nd one and all rooms are open and heaters are set on 2 and in November we had 19 days in the upper teens & chill factor was in the range of 20* below zero. Comparing my electric bills Nov. '09 and '10, my power bill was $33.00
lower, only $56.00 in my all electric apartment of 978 sq.ft. I am not cold, I sit in front of my PC in shorts & a t-shirt, shoes & socks. You won't be disappointed. The 1st DeLonghi heater is 7 yrs old & still works just fine, its a name that can be trusted. These heaters work better & cheaper than an a/c heat pump or baseboard heaters, I know. I live 6665' above sea level in Nevada and it does get cold & windy. A secret, "buy yourself a 6" desk-fan and set it behind a heater on the floor too warm a room 18' square, works wonders." I have 2 cats and they sleep in front of their own heater now, they have never been burnt. I am 76 yr old male. Try them, you can't go wrong...

Received this in the mail today. So far I'm pretty impressed. At first I was a bit puzzled regarding the instructions and all the switches and dials this thing has but once I figured out how it worked it was easy.
I'm using this to heat up a room that is approximately 10ftx20ft, and this room has a glass sliding door on one wall, and four anderson windows all together on the other two walls (the fourth wall connects to the house). The room does have a very small (about 5ft long) baseboard radiator but it barely heats the room properly.
I have this connected to a Lux WIN100 Heating & Cooling Programmable Outlet Thermostat, and it works great. I have it set at 76F and while the middle of the room (where this radiator is placed, dead center) stays at 76F the one side of the room stays at 74.5F (where the sliding door is, and it's 55F outside right now) and the other side 75.5F which is acceptable. I do have a ceiling fan in the room on low but I may need to add a floor fan in there to help circulate the air better and keep the temperature more even throughout the room.
Oh, and I have it set on medium power and it's doing the job quite well. It was able to heat a room stuck at 67-68F to 76F in just a few hours. Almost ten degrees...pretty good IMO. I was reluctant to set it at max power (the full 1500watts) over concern it may pop a circuit breaker. Setting at medium power (1,000watts I believe?) did the job. I'm using this heater to provide ambient heating for all my fishtanks to save on electricity (if I had heaters in every fish tank, I'd end up using 2-4x more energy than I would just simply heating the room itself). The advantage to what I am using this heater for is that the fish tanks absorb a lot of the heat pretty easily and keep the room warm when the heater is not on. Even if the heater were to stay off, I'm sure the room temperature would stay pretty steady for a little while before it starts to drop.
Here are the cons:
* The instructions suck... But if you just tinker around with this thing for a little bit you'll figure out how to use it.
* Not really a con but just a warning to potential buyers, you definitely want to heed the warning in the instruction booklet to let this thing run at full power either outdoors or in a well ventilated area for 2-3 hours because it does release an odor at first. But hey, all new products release odors...name one product that doesn't. New houses wreak of pine, cars have that new car scent or a leather scent, books smell like ink, etc. But definitely let it "break in" before you put it where you need more heat.
* I'm still not sure what the "ComforTemp" button does? And the instructions suck. Either way I just have the comfortemp feature shut off since I am using an external thermostat to control this heater.
Who would I recommend this to?
People who need extra heat in a room 200 square feet or smaller, are concerned about fire safety, and want a heater that is pretty reliable. This is the only type of heater I would trust to leave on in a house without being home. So far so good...

I've purchased two of these heaters in the last 6 months. I returned the first one after about two weeks of use because of the very unpleasant odor it was generating. I followed the recommendation of another reviewer (which is consistent with the directions in the owner's manual) and ran the heater on high for 2+ hours in a well-ventilated area to "burn off" whatever coating is applied during the manufacturing process. This didn't seem to help at all as the odor persisted for the next two weeks. Because I liked the heater in general, I decided I would try another one. I ran the second heater on high for two full days, hoping that this would permanently eliminate any odor. It didn't. Months later, the odor is there any time we turn this thing on.
This might not be a big problem if you are looking to keep your basement or your garage warm, but we were looking to use this in our childrens' room. Unfortunately the odor is just too strong and without really knowing the cause, it's impossible to feel good about having young children breathing in this environment.

Clean -no initial burning gas odors that we got with the DeLonghi EW7707CM. It takes awhile to heat up the room, but after an hour or so, you've got a warm room (this one heats a fairly large, 10' x 30' space). The ComfortTemp system, though, hasn't been of much use to us, as our space can get pretty cold (San Francisco) and seems to need more heat output.
We've had it for nearly 2 months now, and have had no problems. It's also nice that it requires no assembly -the wheels fold under.
