Y na maravilla. No hasta tanta energía y mantiene las habitaciones cálidas en tiempo de frío

[UPDATE 2/2024 - Now that I've had this heater a full year, it's still 5 stars and I still love it. Working great, and with the increased extreme cold weather events, I now run it on low all night in my bedroom, makes a huge difference, doesn't impact electric bill unreasonably.]I actually love this little oil heater. I got it to supplement the crappy bottom-of-the-line Cadet wall heaters my landlord recently put in my apt complex to replace a boiler furnace. The building is old and uninsulated and the wall heaters don't have real thermostats, just crude inefficient sensors. Plus they are noisy, heat inconsistently (hot spots & cold spots in the same room) and are super-expensive to run. I work from home and am sitting at a computer for many hours a day and I get really cold! This DeLonghi oil heater keeps the office room very evenly warm once it's had a chance to heat up all the way (yes, this style heater does not blast you instantly, it's more like a marathon than wind sprints). I love that I can run it on a lower wattage (900 or 600) once it heats up, rather than the full 1500, and that I can adjust the temp dial down once the room feels right to me. With the door closed, it stays toasty all day, and my cat loves it too. It's super-quiet except for an occasional small click or when it's first heating up from being cold, which is normal. It did have the smell others have mentioned when it was brand-new, but that went away fairly soon. The one thing I'd mark it down for is that it really is burning hot to the touch and therefore a risk for small children.

Lo uso en el baño, aunque las instrucciones indican que no se cubra, lo envuelvo con la toalla y entro a la ducha, al salir me espera una toalla calientita para secarme en los días fríos.

Muy buen producto

El aparato llegó y lo probé, como dicen los comentarios, tarda en calentarse, cosa normal.Sin embargo la caja llegó con un poco de perforaciones.El producto no venía envuelto, por lo que partes del producto venía con una considerable cantidad de polvo-tierra. Se hubiera arreglado si el producto hubiera venido dentro de una bolsa.Uno de los lados tiene la pintura rallada y un ligero golpe (estétito) en la parte inferior.El cable venía enrollado a medias y el instructivo venía suelto dentro de la caja, no venía contenido en ninguna bolsa.Lo prendí por dos horas para quitar el "olor a nuevo" como sugiere el instructivo, pero realmente nunca olía a nuevo.Todo me hacía pensar que pudiera no ser nuevo, pero las llantitas se veían intactas y el producto funciona muy bien.

No gasta mucha energia se tarda un poco en calentar pero vale la pena, me gusta que no me genera ningun dolor de cabeza cuando lo tengo en la recamara y sus rueditas lo hacen facil de mover. Excelente marca super confiable. Facil de guardar durante el verano. Mantiene una excelente temperatura y facil de modularla.

Todo funciona bien, es pequeño y muy fácil moverlo. Yo lo uso para el cuarto de baño y esperaba que calentara más, sin embargo lo calienta a temperatura ambiente

I have to start off this review that the heater works GREAT came with FAST shipping and INSTANT setup.It was early December, there was a particularly nasty cold spell over my area, a week-long stretch of -5° C to -15° C (23 F° to 5F°) lows. I was living in a two bedroom Condo with lots of windows and excess heat from the building. Up until then, the heat hadn't been on since LAST winter so the gas line was shut off. Before December I thought we could make it through, tough out the cold but it was hovering around 15° C (60 F°) inside for large parts of the day.That's where the Delonghi came in. Obviously, this wasn't going to heat up the entire Condo but for my modest bedroom, it was PERFECT.The unit is simple enough with 6 temperature settings (1-6), three power settings (Min, Med, Max) and a Comfort Temp mode. I don't think the power/heat settings need much explaining but I'll talk about ComfortTemp later as it took me awhile to figure out. You can use it instantly after flipping the wheels down but I HIGHLY recommend TEMPERING the unit.--Tempering, simply enough has you crank it up to the highest heat/power and leave it running for at least 6hours outside. The manufacturer had a coating on the unit to prevent rust, and every time you heat it to the max there is a very distinct smell. You are letting this coating melt off so and will get rid of the funky odor.--Comfort Temp is a smart feature that has the unit save you power ($$$$) by automatically adjusting the heat of the unit to your desired temperature. First, you have to find the temperature you want your space. Set the heat to 3-4 and patiently wait for it to heat (these are not magic, be patient, it takes time). Once you're warm spin the dial down (counter-clockwise) until you hear a *CLICK* and no further. Voila, it's set and the unit will turn on/off to keep the room at around this temperature.I went from wearing three pairs of socks, thick PJ's and blankets to comfy shorts and a Tee. The unit works so well, in fact, I found myself turning it down on more than a few occasions!-----RECAP------This thing gets HOT. Not enough to burn you but accidentally walking into it you'll jump!-EASY&FAST setup.-Temper your machine. Otherwise, there'll be a smell.-ComfortTemp automatically adjusts heat to your desired temperature.-Use common sense, this won't heat up a very large space a bedroom is perfect.-Efficient. I had it running ~14hours a day for two weeks and saw a modest increase of maybe $25 on my bill (Ontario rates).

Mal desde que llegó, el unicel que protegía el calentador en la base estaba roto, el cable sin amarrar, el manual y demás papeles, sueltos y maltratados, me dio la impresión de que fue un producto que no gusto a alguien que lo compro y devolvió, que mal!Sin embargo, quise probarlo... y que decepción, apenas si calienta, ni poniéndolo en máxima potencia (1500 vatios), incluso lo probe en un lugar cuya superficie no es mayor a los 6 metros cuadrados y si consideramos la altura, el volumen no excede los 15 metros cúbicos, apenas si elevó la temperatura un par de grados, totalmente ineficiente.Seguiré utilizando mi confiable calentador de cerámica de 1200 vatios, que a pesar de haberlo comprado desde hace 2 años y lo pongo a funcionar durante 12 horas seguidas diarias, los 4 meses del año que dura el frío en mi región, ha mantenido su buen funcionamiento.Y en lo que respecta al mal calentador, lo devolveré, en las mismas condiciones que lo recibí, probablemente lo pongan nuevamente en venta y asimismo, le toque a alguien que lo compre, mi misma experiencia.

El equipo es muy bueno y compacto, no ocupa espacio, es silencioso y ha resultado muy útil, me gustó mucho el precio

Update June 2018: Bought 2 more, and one for the mother in law. It is that excellent. And my father bought 2 for his cabin after being around ours lolUPDATE May 2018:After using these 2 heaters ALLLL WINTER (24-7 in a cold rural Ontario house)I have to say we LOVE these!! Infact I just ordered another one lol! It’s a good constant heat, they are silent. We only turn both the Min and Max buttons on till it heats up well, then we just leave them with the Min button on, and the dial turned to number 2. I’ve never gone above 2! They make a 12x12 room a HOT after a night with the door closed lol!I think my electric bill went up maybe 20$- and TOTALLY worth that to have a warm comfy heat that didn’t dry our sinuses and throats out by morning as was the norm here previously.A good quality item we think. We were expecting a lightweight maybe crap quality but put our faith in reviews on amazon.com. It heats up quickly. rolls well - just fold the wheel down or you'll scratch your floor like us :-/ Compact and tidy looking. Overall a great value for the price and type of heater it is and honestly it heated up my daughters 12 x 12 room in about half an hour from 55F degrees when our furnace bit the dust. We put one in my one daughters room and one in the other bedroom, with my sons room inbetween them- and it kept his room warm too lol! Just tell the kids NO TOUCHIE! lol - They do border on hot to the touch when they get going- so common sense mom's and dad's. Don't put then up against walls and curtains etc.(And I prefer the NON digital models- I believe it leaves less to get broken or fried without digital parts. A bit old school but who cares)We are betting that these make a dent in our drafty house in our -35 winter- from their other reviews we think they should continue being effective.

As temperatures dropped toward freezing in southern Florida this year, we purchased two of these heaters. I opted for these oil filled heaters over the well-rated ceramic heaters due to concerns over drying the air out too much (some of the ceramic reviewers noted this as a drawback). In the end, while perhaps less than ceramic, the wife and kids seem to feel these dry out the air too. Not a lot, but noticeable.Both heaters arrived quickly and undamaged, but we quickly determined that one of the heaters had a rhythmic clicking about every hour or so. After having the clicking dance wake me up about every hour throughout the night, I called the manufacturer. They said the clicking was not normal and that the unit was defective, and this is where I really like Amazon. I boxed the unit back up, visited the Amazon website, selected UPS pickup right at my door, and two days later the defective unit was on its way back to Amazon with barely any effort on my end and at no cost to me. Simultaneously with the return, I opted for Amazon to send me a replacement unit, which arrived within about three days. No double charge to my credit card since Amazon had my old unit within the allotted 30 days.As for the units themselves, they work great and are very quiet (just a single very subtle thermostatic "click" every now and again when the unit triggers for heat). My father-in-law bought a fan heater from Lowe's a few days before I got these, but took it back because it was too noisy. My wife told him we ordered oil filled heaters from Amazon and they were quiet. He came down to look at what we got, and ordered his own from Amazon.The units emit more than enough heat to keep any of our individual bedrooms warm, even with the bedroom door left open. I left my daughter's room closed for a couple hours to warm it up before bedtime, and when we opened the door, it was way too toasty (her room is about 12x12 with an adjoining bathroom that is probably about 7x7). The unit certainly helps larger areas, but don't expect it to heat a 25x25 area up to normal room temperature when outside temps are 30s or 40s. Having said that, I was happily surprised that our 25x25 living room space never got below 65 with just one of these heaters running in a corner. So it will certainly keep any room livable and comfortable.I gave the unit four stars, but admittedly not giving it five stars was difficult. It is a compact unit sold at a very reasonable cost. It is easy to set up and operate. It is quiet and will keep you warm (but be patient, because it takes a little while to get things warmed up). I didn't give it five stars because, while it is constructed well enough, it's certainly not built bullet proof. The other reason is the unit's very singular and limited role (i.e. it doesn't have options that might make it more versatile). But it's precisely these demerits that undoubtedly provide for the reasonable price, hence my five star dilemma.

I was looking for a quiet, efficient heater to use in my sons bedroom at night. His bedroom is on the end of the house and usually 3 or 4 degrees cooler than the rest of the house. This heater did the trick.After reading numerous reviews I had mixed feelings on this. I basically bought it because the price was low enough that if it didn't work, I wasn't out a ton of cash. I'll just say I'm very pleased so far!Pros:Size - When I initially think radiator, I picture the giant iron ones from the old days. This is nice and compact and fits in nicely in the corner of the roomNoise - other than a little click when the "thermostat" goes on or off, there's no noiseHeat - gives off a nice, moist, calm heat. When I say moist and calm I'm comparing this to other electric heating elements that get red hot and use a a fan that tends to dry out a room in a hurry. This heater emits a nice gentle heat.Efficiency - You set the dial to the desired setting. The unit will heat to that point, then shut down, however it continues to residually heat the room without using any power. When it gets below a certain desired setting, it clicks back on to reheat itself.ConsThe instructions could explain how to use the temp dial and comfort-temp a little better.In addition, I'd like to attempt to clarify the "thermostat" issue. Reqading the reviews here confused me a bit as to what to expect.First off, there technically IS a thermostat....just not like the one you're probably used to. Theres a dial with numeric settings on it, not a temperature range like you would expect. It takes a bit of trial and error to get it where you like, but it's not terrible.1. There are 2 on/off switches. Right(low), left (medium), both (high). I can only explain these as the speed of how to get your unit to the desired temp. If you're not in a hurry, use low. If you want it to heat up faster, use medium, if you want it to temp as fast as possible, use both switches. Once the unit is to temperature, I only use the low setting to maintain a constant temp. This method seems most efficient.2. Using any of the 3 settings above, turn on the unit and start the dial at 1.3. After about an hour use a thermometer to note the room temp. (I use a cheap digital one I got from Walmart). If the temperature is what you desire, 1 is your setting. If not, go to #44. Turn the dial to 2 (or in between 1 and 2 if you have the time) and repeat step 35. Once your room is at the desired temp, thats your setting. I found that in order to keep my sons room at 72 degrees during the cold Chicago nights, I use setting 4. I cycle it back to in between 3 and 4 for when he naps during the day and the outside temp is a bit warmer.I'm very pleased with the accuracy as well. I leave the digital thermometer in his room 24/7. I randomly check it before I go to bed after he's sleeping and in the morning when he gets up. 9 out of 10 times it's right at 72 with the occasional 71 or 73.As for the comfortemp, I cant attest. I dont use it. It was so easy to find my temp range I didn't even bother with it.I also didn't experience and bad odors. Maybe it's because Im only using the lower settings and not cranking it up to heat a big room, but it went from the box to my sons room without having to melt off any coatings or things to that matter.I highly recommend this if you need a quiet,gradual, efficient source of heat.
