Rated "Best All Around Heater" by Good Housekeeping Magazine, the Vornado IntelliTemp Heater is equipped with a variable output control that generates the right amount of heat, maintaining comfort automatically so you don't have to spend time changing it yourself. The specially-designed vortex circulation gently and quietly warms the entire room, not just parts of it, with its deep-pitched propeller and its circulatory action that sends warm air outwards, upwards and downwards, making it one of the most efficient heaters, both heat-wise and money-wise. The cabinet and the tightly-curved spirals are cool to the touch, and in the event the heater tips over or if the airflow becomes blocked, the unit shuts itself off, a peace-of-mind safety feature you'll appreciate. Sleek and compact, the heater has no metal parts to rattle, dent or loosen; its flat back lets you place it near the wall so it's never in the way.
This powerful, compact heater will warm a 10-foot-square room in about 15 minutes and then continuously maintain it at the selected temperature by electronically adjusting its heat and fan, thereby eliminating annoying on-and-off, hot-and-cold cycles. The heater can also be operated manually with high/low heat and fan options, as well as the automatic system connected to the thermostat. With the thermostat turned off, the heater converts to a two-speed fan. Nonglowing heat elements and electronic shutoff in case of tip-over provide safety. The durable, cool-touch plastic cabinet measures just 12-1/2 by 11-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches, and the heater operates at either 750 watts (low) or 1,500 watts (high). It carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Vornado Heater:
Didn't last the winter, overheated and quit. Money not well spent on this item. Wasn't worth the stress of trying to get a refund.
I love to be warm!:
I got this Vornado as a Christmas gift. Our bedroom was the coldest in the house, very frigid, and now it is the warmest. I absolutly love being warm, and this thing works well, quietly, and fast. Plus,it is safe for my little curious children. I generally keep my apartment heated to 75 degrees.
Manufacturer NOT a good one to deal with:
I bought 2 of these heaters in 2002. They were recalled for a over heating problem (Amazon was VERY GOOD in notification). I returned the heaters per instructions, one was returned with no problems. The other one is a different story. Its control panel was not put on right so it went back again. Last year it over heated and blew out the outlet, back it went, just got it back yesterday and the control panel was not installed (just set in place so it came loose as soon as you touched it). When we contacted... more info
Product Recalled:
I liked this product but heard today it was recalled. OLD REVIEW Like some of you, we went through many many store bought space heaters with disappointing results. The worst were Honeywell products which I suggest you avoid. The beauty of this item is severalfold.
1. It is effective at heating our baby's room which is about 10x15' with high arched ceilings. Impressive for a heater as small as this one is.
2. It is quiet.
3. It has a thermostat feature which works well.... more info
