It’s easy enough to assemble, just the screws and washers to be positioned on the leg frame. It heats a room up nicely but it is on the noisy side. Suggest using for pre-heating a room. I purchased 3 of these for our office as the central heating was down, it was a bit hit and miss, the 1st was perfect which is why I then ordered 2 more. Of the 2nd order, 1 fuse blew immediately upon plugging in and the 3rd was cosmetically damaged.
I actually use it inside my house for some instant warmth when required. The fan is very loud and when you first turn the unit on its blowing out cold air. But once the element heats up then it works fine.
When on maximum power, its using 3KW and so that’s 12.5 amps which is close to the limit for a domestic wall socket. The heater’s lead, its plug and the wall socket get warm with all that current going through and so you should not leave this heater on unattended and know where to turn off the mains supply if you need to in a hurry.
To summarise : its a bit brutal but it works.
Works well heats a very large greenhouse in the most coldest weather. Costs a lot to run though.
Be careful with 3kw heater on conventional ring main, better suited for a dedicated power supply from distribution board.
Best to get advice from professional before purchasing.
A very well engineered heater, sturdy, easy to carry and I particularly like the ability to switch between 1.5Kw and 3.0Kw. The thermostat control works well/ It is used for heating a variety if sized rooms in the basement of the flats and has proved very useful in keeping the damp away.

This heater is very sufficient, we brought it to put in our gazebo for a party,:and it was really nice and warm.
Smaller than expected, kicks out some good heat, heats my workshop when 1 degree outside to a comfortable level in 5-10 mins
We bought this to heat up garage which now has a table tennis table ( some exercise during lockdown!). It does the job well if we leave it for 20 min before playing. We also intend to use it in a gazebo outside in the colder months. It seems very sturdy although it took me a while to work out how to fit the tilting base to the body of the heater – a diagram in the instructions would have been helpful.
I’m happy with this. When it first arrived, I used it in my house and I wasn’t impressed as it took almost 2 hours to heat a room, also it’s meant to be an industrial heater, yet the instructions say it’s only for occasional use in insulated areas. This is no use for what I need it for.
However, I put it in my gym which is in a non insulated garage, and it warmed the place up nicely and quickly. Time will tell if it lasts, and if I have any problems I will come back and change my review, but for now, I’m happy with this.
I have used the item a few times. It gives off really good heat and looks good too. It does make some noise – only to be expected in an item so powerful but it’s not excessive .
