I bought this heater to help heat a large custom-built (in the late 1970's) greenhouse, which had baseboard heat. The cost of heating the 12'x40' room with baseboard got extremely expensive and I only had it at 63 degrees!  So I put one of these at one end & set it at 64 degrees. So quiet and nice air flow.  Beautiful wood cabinet, too. I had another cheap on at the other end that was noisy, probably not as energy efficient, and finally wore out this year. Got another one of the Dr Infrared Heaters to replace it. Haven't used the remote control.   

Pros: quiet, efficient, attractive
Cons: none
