Bends quite easily under medium lift and weight. If you're moving twigs and sticks around the fire, this might work for you.

However, if you're running an actual fire with decent logs; this item is useless.

It took two tries to get this installed right. First, the velcro was a little too sticky. When I tried to move the fan, the velcro came unstuck from the fireplace and not the hook/loop like it's supposed to. Second, I thought the temperate sensor was supposed to go on the top side of the fireplace. The first attempt yielded melting wires and loud hums from the fan.

The second attempt, I made a "bed" with insulation tape (the kind you put on door jams) and put some 2.5" wide velcro tape on the bed. This thoroughly insulated the fan from the fireplace shell. Then I took the magnet and sensor and put a screw through them so they would hold together and stuck it to the bottom of the fireplace.

Everything is working great. Other than the sound of the air moving, you can't tell the fan is on. And now the entire room warms nicely when the fireplace is on.

Does a good job and makes my otherwise useless gas fireplace useful. It puts some actual heat into the room. Instructions could have been better but it's pretty straight forward. Basically stick the blower unit to the back of the fireplace, plug it in and put the magnetic temperature switch on the top of fire pan. The unit doesn't come on as soon as it has power. It waits until the fireplace warms up and then turns on. It will also stay on for a few minutes when you turn the fireplace off to push the residual heat into the room. The noise from the fan is a little louder than I thought it would be but not too bad. There is also a fan speed control to adjust the speed (and noise) of the fan. Overall I'm pleased with the purchase and performance of the unit.

I have one in our fireplace, I installed this one in a friend's fireplace, and two other friends each have one similar to this also. They are well built units and work well. I also want to mention that the support from "fireplaceblowers" is excellent. They promptly answered questions by email and were available by phone as advertised on their website.

My installation is good but my friend's installation had an issue. These work by placing the blower below and at the back of the firebox so it blows air up the back air gap and out the top grill. The issue is my friend's fireplace has a much larger air gap (3" vs 1" in my fireplace) along the sides of the firebox which allowed a lot of the air to go down the sides to the bottom instead of out the top grill and thus recirculate into the blower. This heated up the gap under of the fireplace box which should have been cooled by incoming air. Fireplaceblowers immediately answered my phone call but, unfortuneately, did not have a ready solution. However, being able to discuss it with them helped as I devised a solution. I bought a 3x3 ft sheet of galvanized steel at Lowes, cut two 2.75 inch strips and put one strip in each air gap along the sides of fireplace to restrict the air flow along the sides. I left the 0.25 inch gap to allow side air flow if the fireplace is run without the blower. I also tested this reduced air gap to ensure I did not overheat anything but since the 3" air gap is still there, the only thing is a slight restriction of a thermally driven flow. Without an exact sketch of how I placed these sheet strips, I hope you get the idea. This worked to restrict downward side air flow, recirculating air along the sides is minimal, and good warm air is flowing out the top grill.

The blower is exactly what I needed. It was easily to install. I did have to extend the leads on the temperature sensor. I would recommend this blower to anyone with a Heatolator unit.

I use this heater in a relatively unisulated (only 1.5" thick fiberglass on steel building walls) 1260 sq ft building (30'x42'x14'). It has an easy starting push-pin and an easy to rotate knob for adjustment of high/low. There isn't much sound difference between high/low, but there is definitely less gas usage on settings less than high.

The manual recommended checking all the fitting connections on the included hose for leaks. I kinda took that for granted assuming the unit should be perfect. After 2-3 uses found a leak at one of the fittings. It was quickly corrected with removal and re-installation using thread sealant, but it just goes to show that reading the manual and following the directions are always a safe bet.

Like any open propane heater, this unit has no way of venting out doors so you want to make sure and use an appropriate Carbon Monoxide detector along with proper ventilation of the enclosed space. I have a CO detector that plugs into the wall, but mostly I just don't leave the heater on for more than an hour max, and make sure to ventilate/get outside every once in a while when working in the cold condtions.

Excellent quality overall. Follow the directions and you should have no issues.

I live in Kansas where the winter is always from 0 to 30, my 3 car garage is half finished with r19 and no drywall. Need to work in the garage, usually it's about 10 degrees warmer then the temp outside. 22'w X 30'l x 11' h. cracked the back door to the garage and fired it up on low for about 20 minutes it was comfortable for jeans and sweatshirt. Easy hook up, fittings do not seem to be leaking at this time but will keep a look out. Slight propane smell but was expected. All in all Good Buy!

I needed a heater to warm my garage in cold weather. This heater is exactly what I needed. It warms my 3 car garage, in only a few minutes. It is economical to run. I had used an electric heater which cost a fortune to run. If you need to heat an area quickly, just aim it in the direction needed. It's size is deceiving, when I first saw it, it seemed so small, I thought that I'd made a mistake. In this case size does not matter. Works wonderfully!!

This grate does not work with Java logs. It has so much iron in it that it sucks too much heat away and does not let the log burn to completion, leaving glowing embers for many, many hours.

Very easy to put together, but you have to be careful because one of the poles snapped apart while I was putting it together, so watch over tightening the poles :( Still got it up though..I'm not sure if you would want to place a very heavy T.V. on top of it..We're just using it for a 22inch t.v...Definitely a very simply put together shelf..No muss No fuss!

I got this when it was on sale, and that made it an amazing deal. Even at normal price though, this thing is really nice. You don't need to install it in a mantel, it is able to sit level on a desk or dresser easily. Compared to the other electric fireplaces on the market, this one is definitely the most realistic. don't hesitate getting this, its the best in this price range.

Installed in an existing recessed wall in my living room. It really delivers nice warm air without any noise whatsoever. The timer feature in the remote control is great, the burning logs and flames look amazingly real and the installation was a breeze.

I got the product because I needed and extra warming system in my basement. Being that we made the basement area for the kids I didn't want a lot of stuff on the floor. I have a daughter that's into gymnastic and a son that loves to move around and play video games. So the option that this unit could be wall mount was great. The unit heat comes out from the top and you can't have anything above it because it will get damage. Also the unit started to smoke every time I put it on and the fire alarm has gone off. I read somewhere that you should take the unit outside and let it run for about 20 minutes to get rid of smoke and it could run properly. I haven't had a chance. Also you can't recess this into the wall, because the vents are on the top. So I might send it back after the holidays because I was really expecting the unit vents to be in the front. I would say don't get it or maybe go to your local fireplace store to get information before purchasing a unit like this.

We purchased this heater two years ago and liked it so well we have purchased three more. It is sturdy, well-built (with a cast aluminum element--no thin metal to make noise), and unobtrusive. It is absolutely silent. None of our units has ever made noise. Granted, it has no fan and works by convection only, but having a room heater without the fan noise or the incessant clunking is wonderful. We use ours as bedroom heaters and they work perfectly. Think of this heater as a small, supplemental baseboard heater.

This is the same unit as the Lasko 5605. Air King and Lasko share many products...

I purchased this to put under a window I use for ventilation during the winter. I have an exhaust fan in the ceiling across the room.

This is perfect, even on low.

Sturdy build with a quality cord.

I think you will be happy and toasty if you invest in one!

Update 10/18/2012: This is the best purchase I have made in 20 years.

Update 3/11/2013: I adore this heater, I don't worry about it catching fire because it has no moving parts. The only problem I've had: one of the feet comes loose when I move it. Oh, well.

If you are looking to heat-up an entire room... even a small room... this is not the product for you. It has no fans to distribute the heat, and it does not produce a large amount of heat (though the top grill gets hot enough that you cannot touch it for more than about 2 seconds, before you would feel the need to withdraw your hand).

In spite of that, I am pleased with this product, and I will tell you why:

I only needed to heat up a very small area... within about four feet of the heater... by about 5 degrees more than the ambient room temperature... to make the area around a personal office / computer work station more cozy on winter mornings.

It is able to do that... and unlike the vast majority of personal space heaters on the market... it is DEAD SILENT. No fans... and no periodic clunking / clicking / pinging noises.

If you only need to heat up a very small area (like around your desk), and you require not just "quiet operation" but indeed "absolutely silent operation"... this is an excellent choice.

If you are seeking to warm-up an entire bedroom... no... this is not what you want... you need a heater that has fans to distribute the heat around the room more efficiently... and yes, that is going to make at least a little bit of noise.

So I do recommend this item... but again... only for warming up a very small area of "personal space" in an environment where absolutely silent operation is preferred. Within those limitations... this product is a good choice.
