This heater works well for adding additional heat to a room.  I'm using it in a 20' x 12' basement room.  The thermostat allows for easy control of temperature and the fan is fairly quite.  It seems to provide even heating while the cabinet gets warm but not hot.  It's a basic heater with simple easy to use controls.  For large areas there may be better larger heaters that would better suit the room but I'm happy with my purchase for my application.
