Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So I live in a small (I mean small - less than 400 sq ft-YIKES!) cottage. I can not swing my cat. It's ALL electric and my PG&E bill is bananas WITHOUT using the heat. So I suffered in the cold until my sister told me she had a lasko floor heater. I wasn't impressed when I saw it (not this one) but I honestly didn't care because I was tired of freezing to death with layers of clothes on. It's murder trying to get going in the morning (skipping showers cause it's too cold :(-C'mon!!). I saw this Lasko and was super excited. It LOOKED interesting, better than my sisters, well on the internet picture anyway. If you have ever lived in a small place you have to know ANYTHING you add to the decor, grows 5 times it's original size. I didn't want a contraption in the middle of my place. Well I'm here to tell you I in fact received it and was instantly satisfied with it's appearance. It's rather elegant - as elegant as you can get being a heater and made of plastic. The base is metal and the tower is "i wanna look like stone" and does a fairly good job of it...unless your sitting on top of it and analyzing it. So for appearance - for what it is made of and the look it is trying to pull off: 5 stars. Good job Lasko. Now, as far as heating, it's freaking NOT freezing in here anymore I am happy to say. This thing is really great. I love to be warm so I put it on 75 degrees and I am cozy as a bug in about 5 minutes- (room ~ 200 sqft) You have many choices. For temp: 60,65.70,75,80,85 then max. There's a timer for it to go off after 1-7 hours. It can oscillate though I don't use this. One persons review stated it made his e-bill go up - I don't know but I don't need to find out. My latest PG&E bill is unremarkable (super excited!!) - but I've only had it a month so I'm a bit nervous about a surprise huge PG&E bill next month. So this thing looks great and works great for what you pay. It's light weight so I bring it to which ever room I'm in- my whopping choice of basically two. I'm giving 5 stars because it's all I expected- nice looking to blend in a small cottage without sticking out like a sore thumb and also does what it sets out to do- heats so well it makes me fall asleep :) Oh, it also comes with a remote control which I find wicked funny. I guess only because I simply have no use for it but thank you Lasko. Get off your couch people!! HA. Good Luck to you.
