Well made, solid construction, good-looking unit

I received this patio heater (item# 60485) as a retirement present and was impressed with the substantial feel and heavy-gage construction. It went together without trouble, lit effortlessly after the propane tank was connected and it heats evenly and well.
Two recommendations to WellTraveled:
1) The middle post support needed to be shimmed at the base with a couple of large washers (about 3/16" total thickness) to bring the post into vertical alignment. Possibly the lower post flange wasn't "true" (perpendicular to the post) or some of the attachment holes in the flange or post supports weren't 100% accurately located, but several attempts to straighten the post with the bolts loosely installed weren't successful until I added the washers under the middle post support.
2) The blue protective plastic on the reflector panels was difficult to remove cleanly, left a LOT of residue, even when carefully peeling it off. It took 30 minutes with Goo Gone to get the sticky sections clean, which I didn't want to leave and create smoke when the reflector heated up.

I purchased a Fire Sense outdoor heater about 15 years ago, but it finally died. I had been so happy with it for all those years, that I purchased the same heater again.

Great Heater for Pergola
on December 31, 2018

Gender:Male
I bought this heater to use by my Pergola. We are in a Arizona RV Resort and works great for taking the chill out of the winter nights and extends our outside sitting.
The only issue I had was the cover I bought for the heater. The instructions are not very clear on what the rod function is.

Easy assembly, high quality

Relatively easy assembly and the heater seems to be made well. It does not put out as much heat as another one we had, despite more BTUs.

WENT BACK TO OUR GOOD OLE' TRUE BLUE PATIO LANTERN

We have a pool and entertainment area in our backyard. Have purchased the Fire Sense lanterns multiple times over the last 15 years. Wanted to try something different, and sure enough, they did not put enough heat out. Went back to our true blue lanterns that never let us down. I enjoy evenings and this way we stay super comfortable and warm. Highly recommend these.
