I have a sitting room in my master bedroom that I use as my office.  For some reason it is the coldest room in the house.  I put this heater in here with me and the room is heated within minutes.  You can set it to the temperature you would like and it wont go above that.  It has a remote which is nice because I dont like the heater right next to me.  I dont have to move to turn it off or on.  It does have two silver buttons on the top and one sets the timer.  I havent figured out the other yet and it isn't labeled.  That would be my only criticism.  I misplaced the book (or my husband "helped" clean).  It has the tip over technology that it will turn off if it does tip which is nice.  Overall, very nice heater.  Remote is a big plus.  Easy to use.  Has a handle to carry is and the remote fits nicely in the handle.  Im a fan...no pun intended.
