This is my second attempt at buying a Lasko heater, my first was not so good. The 5591 was a fiasco. I switched up and tried this one as it was a bit cheaper. Much, much better experience. First, there is no assembly required and second, it works straight out of the box. The fan noise is acceptable. The remote has an LCD temp. display for the temp. you choose to set it to. It has provided adequate heat for my apartment living room so far with no problems.
What's great about it: No assembly required, nice remote, ok noise levels.
The elongated ceramic element of this Lasko 5591 tower heater provides an extended warming zone, so you can stay cozy during cold weather. The touch controls and multifunction remote enable quick temperature adjustments.
I've bought Lasko heaters and fans over the years, never had a problem. Ordered this one thinking that would continue. However, I either got a lemon or the quality has gone down. First. There were no screws to assemble the base in the box anywhere. I contacted Lasko directly and they sent me the screws within a couple of days. I was okay with that. Second. After assembly, the unit would not oscillate. Took the base off thinking I somehow assembled it wrong, checked it out, put it back together. Still no oscillation. And finally, Third. I figured I could live without the oscillation, whatever. But after all that, no HEAT. No matter what temp I set it to, it just never got warm.
Taking it back ASAP and either trying another one or another brand.
