Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell Low-Profile Silent Comfort Heater
Customer Review: Reliability issues
Summary: 1 Stars
This item is made in China. Therefore, it has a lifetime expentancy of exactly one year, if it is used sparingly: Some stupid thing will stop working, in this case, the only moving part, which is the "on" switch. (On my previous heater, it was also the on switch, which was NOT a moving part).
I bought this item to save money and energy: I can heat up one room in my house while the rest stays fairly cool. But if every year (and it has been every year) one has to replace these heaters, and send to the landfill an otherwise perfectly good but unfixable appliance (and they are unfixable, I checked), we're not saving any planet here. Also, I'm certain that I did not save enough energy using this heater to justify its cost before it died.
Stay away from any items with an "on" switch made in China, is my advice (which might mean we have to go back to wood fire heaters). Otherwise, just buy a $25 heater and expect to throw it away at the end of the season.
Customer Review: Worked good for the 2 months I used it last year, now it don't work.
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this in January and it worked good for the two months we used it. I plugged it in this year and it worked three weeks then quit working.
I thought that it was a little cumbersome when I got it, but the price was right and so was the consumer reports review. I swore by it all year long after the performance during the cold months. I just wish it would last longer than three months of use.
It wasn't like it was beat while in storage. I kept the original box and put it back in it when we werent using it. I got it back out this winter and it worked for three weeks, now it wont work.
now is the time of year that they mark these things up, so don't wast your money on buying a heater that doesn't last.
Customer Review: So disapointed
Summary: 1 Stars
After reading the reviews on this product I thought it would be a great space heater for my apt. I couldn't have been more wrong. It barely gets hot - even on the highest setting - and gives off almost no heat!!
Perhaps mine is defective or got broken during shipping, but it was a huge waste of money. I have had to go out an buy another space heater already.
It is so frustrating. One word - don't!!
Customer Review: Poorly designed heater
Summary: 1 Stars
This heater worked for about 3 months, and now the switch won't turn it on anymore.
From reading other reviews, it seems like this is a common problem, probably due to the heating of an internal switch. The heater is impossible to open to try to fix it, and I can't find anything about this product being recalled.
3 months of operation is way to low for $55... Don't buy this product.
Customer Review: Scrap metal
Summary: 1 Stars
I should have read some reviews before I ordered this a few months ago. It does very little to heat my living area even if left on for hours. I got a Honeywell Mini Tower at the same time and it's a fabulous little guy. Puts the other to shame. Don't buy the baseboard type if you want to be warm.
