EDENPURE HEATERS

[Marinedave1]

I've heard great things about these small area heaters. Supposedly, folks are tickled to have 'em. Say they heat a room very easily, but dose not remove the moisture in the air. I'll be looking to heat 2 rooms at the most out of a total of 5. Anyone have one? Any info much appreciated.

A friend of mine got one and loves it.

Any time I see ads like the ones they have, I really question the product. Save 50% on your heating bill? For me, it's just too hard to believe. Apparently, Consumer Reports has problems with it also. I don't have any experience with them, I just don't trust companies that seem to over-hype their product.

Hey Thanks guys---I'll check it out. Looks like mixed reviews so far.

Update---

Since I'm looking to find a decent space heater to supplement and make the Admiral happy when she leaps out of the shower in January, I'm gonna pop on one of these. I found an EdenPure, very slightly used, for under $100. I admit it did not get the best reviews from consumer reports, but I had a chance to be around this thing for a few hours in a chilly garage, and it impressed me. Its pretty quiet also.

It's just the Admiral and I, so maybe we can shave some cash on the electric bill by staying in our bedroom most of the time, heh heh heh. If we do get tired of the physical heating activities, maybe I'll turn on the space heater.

If I save anything, maybe I'll spend the cash on VIAGRA and leave the heater off anyways.....not that I need VIAGRA mind you.

Good marketing sells products. period.

Any garden variety electric heater will do the same thing. 1500 watts is 1500 watts no matter what kind of cabinet it comes out of. No magic here at all. The cost savings claimed come only if you turn the thermostat down for the rest of the house and use the EP heater to warm the room you are in to a comfortable level. Buy yourself a little ceramic disk type heater with an integral thermostat for about $50 and enjoy identical benefits while taking up 1/5 the floor space.

Heaterman, I am looking for a heater for my porch. I like to set out there at night, it is covered with vinyl, what about the quartz heaters you see at out door resturants?
