Use this fan / heater 3 to 5 hours daily for an approx 475 sq foot area. It works awesome quiet and hassle free.

- I bought two more after liking the first so well
I've read the various reviews. I can't comment on the experience of other people, but here's mine. I have a bathroom that can be quite chilly, and I thought I'd see if a Vornado would help. It did. In fact, I liked it so well, that I bought one for my elderly parents, who tend to be cold almost all the time. They use it regularly, both in their TV room, and in the bathroom. It's quite light and easy to transport, so they do. THEN I decided to take my bathroom Vornado to work, since we had some "thermostat wars" going on and my office would suddenly turn frigid because someone else was too warm. It worked again. So I bought a third for the bathroom. Nary a problem. It's quiet. It heats smoothly and circulates the heat as claimed. As a result the room gets gently warmer, not the three feet of space in front of the heater. With three units purchased at different times, I would think I would have come across one of the defective ones that others have complained about, but I have not had that happen to me. I am very pleased.

- Heater was well below expectations
I originally went to the store to buy another Vornado heater that received good reviews on Amazon, however the store only had the DVH in stock and it was on sale, so I went with the DVH, I was excited about bringing it home to heat the living room when I watched TV and my bedroom at night. Well I tested the unit last night in my bedroom ( about 150-200sqft) and it was very disapointing. I live in CA and the temp in my house is around 60 degrees between Dec-Feb, I wanted a heater to heat up my bedroom at night so I could sleep comfortably and I place it in in the bathroom in the morning so I can get out of the shower and not freeze to death. This unit's performance was horrible! I set the DVH on High and set the temp to 72 degrees before I went to sleep, throughout the night the room still felt cold, in the morning I looked at the DVH and it states that the room temp was around 63 degrees! The heater hardly changed the temp of the room the whole night! I then adjusted the temp to 90 degrees and placed the unit in the bathroom, by the end of my shower the room temp was only registering 65 degrees!! I left it on for another hour to test and when I came back the room temp hardly changed, maybe only by a few degrees!!...the heat coming from the DVH was not that hot and the fan did not seem that strong. Needless to say I am returning this heater today! It seems that the quality control at Vornado is not consistent on this heater, some people rave about this heater, yet many others have similar negative experiences like mine. I would recommend staying away from this heater and spend your hard earned money on something better! Hope this review helps!
