The product overview was great! Ordering was excellent. The product is not as good as I originally thought. The heater seams cheaply made and I'm not sure if it will hold up. The heater works as advertised but doesn't push as much heat as I thought it would. Time will tell, I haven't really used it yet as I attend to.




by:

I bought this heater because a Teardrop Trailer I rented had one and I wanted one for myself. It is easy to use, warms up the cabin area nicely and quickly, and doesn't blow the fuses. I tucked it in an empty cubbyhole where I wouldn't knock it onto the bedding and start a fire, then rotated it on its foot so it pointed down toward me. There is a note on the tag to turn it off for 5 minutes after running it for 20 minutes, which I did. It is probably not a good idea to go to sleep with this on unless using a timer of some sort.

etrailer shipped it immediately and packaged it well.

This little heater is just what I need to keep my one man camping trailer from being freezing cold in the morning. Thanks for sending it promptly.




by:

Great products, the heater is a great solution for a failed heater core in a pinch. The insulated vents inserts is perfect for insulation in winter, sun shade in winter. Thank you!




by:

so far I have decided this type of heater is basically a waste of money. a hand held hair dryer puts out more heat than any of these types of temporary heaters. this particular one was as big of a failure as any other brand I have tried, unfortunately. I don't have a photo. I gave it to my friend down the street to see if he could make it work.

Should be good for keeping my pipes from freezing in the motor home water compartment.
