User Reviews about iHeater
I ordered one of these after I got a $460 power bill in this crazy winter in the mid-Atlantic region, after the power company raised their rates through the ceiling and I read the reviews on what an incredible innovation in heating this unit is. It's a nice space heater; looks great, great controls, very quiet, etc. But it is what it is - a 1500 Watt space heater. It won't cut your electric bill in half, unless you're willing to freeze in the process. The hype is transparent to me now, and I could have spent a lot less for the same heating output, though it certainly wouldn't have been as nicely adorned wi5h features that are expensive but in the end add nothing to the real goal...staying warm cheaply! -- Nice Space Heater
Lat year, I bought the i-heater for the first floor of my house, to cut down on fuel costs. It lowered my oil bills considerably, and did not significantly raise my electric bill. It was quiet, easily portable, and heated about 1500 sq feet rather well, considering that I have several rooms coming off a central hallway,and not one large open space.It heated all the rooms evenly, without drying the air and without hot and cold spots.
This winter I put it in the basement, which has no heat, after my pipes froze leading to the bathrooms on the second floor. Since it has been running, I have had no further problems with the plumbing.
An electric heat pump warms the second floor, but in 10-20 degree weather, it has been working very hard, almost constantly since my oil furnace shut down this past week.When the i-heater is on, the heat pump almost never kicks on.
Because of this, I am ordering another i-heater for the first floor and another for another property where the electric bill was about $800. this past month. I know that this heater will help lower that cost considerably.
I have paid almost $2,000. in oil bills so far this winter. I intend to use the i-heaters (2) to eliminate that cost entirely.
Like someone else, I only gave it a four rating because it does not run on a dollar a day, but since it will save me at least 100-500 per month in heating costs, I think that anyone would agree that it is an almost indispensable purchase.
Given that my furnace shut off on Friday afternoon during a snow storm in weather in the teens, it was, as I said, a life saver that weekend.
By the way, I have a neighbor whose furnace broke down and needed it replaced. I lent her mine for a couple of weeks and it kept her house warm until she could get that done. It is amazing that such a small machine can do such a good job.
If you want a hot room, this machine is not for you, but if you want a less expensive, portable and reliable heating source, I don't know of anything better.

I am very disappointed with EdenPure's Quartz Infrared Portable Heater. I bought the Model 1000 and had to return it within three days. I have no complaint about their return policy, but less than a year later, the heater stopped putting out heat and at times stops altogether. I am very hesitant to spend another nearly four-hundred dollars for the "new" Edenpure Gen 3 heater. If the company refuses to replace this heater, it was a rip off and I got sucked in by their appealing advertisement. I liked it while it worked, but I am lookng for another company who makes a better quartz infrared heater.

This heater is not bad. My in-laws bought two of them and were happy with them. I have found that the heater works well in a space that is generally closed and decently insulated. Because it doesn't blow out hot air, rather it blows warm air, it cant really overcome poorly insulated spaces. However, if you need supplemental heat in an insulated space it does OK. As I write this its about 12 degrees outside with eight inches of snow and the dogs keep using the doggie door. The furnace is still coming on from time to time but, it's not running continuously. The Iheater has been on all day. I set the heat on the Iheater a couple of degrees higher than the furnace when it's this cold out because I want it to stay warm. When I go to bed I will turn it down a bit. If you want or need a heater to really kick out some heat this is not for you. If you need to heat a small, insulated space, or to supplement your existing furnace or heat pump, this is a pretty good heater. I am not unhappy with it. I read a review where someone was complaining about the smell. When you start it the first time it smells for a minute or so and that's it. No problem. Natural gas is expensive here so, I can't imagine that this heater wont help with energy cost. The temp in the morning is supposed to be 9 with a wind chill of 1. This heater will stay on till the temps go back up. I don't expect it to compete with that. It does help keep things comfortable. It's worth the money, especially over time. -- good within parameters
