I had bought one of these several years ago, and I now this is my 2nd. I got them for my outdoor patio. Great to hang out under them in a 40 degree day/night. I like the metal hood it has because I hang them close to my ceiling outside, and it protects if from heating the ceiling. I recommend.
This was really easy to install (4 screws) and plug in. We had to try it in a couple different locations to find the best heat and safety combo. It won't really help in the dead of winter, but it does a great job of cutting the chill in fall and spring.
I bought this in Sept. and began using it in Oct. as the fall weather has cooled in PA. Easy to mount by myself and nice addition to my patio making it comfortable longer. Improved my outdoor living space.
I bought two of these to extend the season well into the fall. They throw an immense amount of heat (I almost wish they had a half-power setting), are very well built. Very happy with these so far.
I purchased an Electric Parasol Heater (Model No. 60404) for my patio umbrella. It was easy to install, attractive, and performs like a champ. It is also attractive without drawing attention to itself. I also like the feature that allows for three different heat settings. I have owned 3 of these. The first was destroyed in a windstorm that also destroyed the umbrella. The insurance adjuster had never heard of the item, and after he saw it, he called me later to tell me he had bought one and how much he and his wife were enjoying it. The second fell victim to the ravages of time and use. The third is this one, and I will keep buying them. They put out just the right amount of heat.
