Honeywell Ceramic Surround Heater (HZ-435)



Heats effectively, but there are thermostat and timer problems.
I bought this heater in November 2012. It's run well for the most part. But it has some problems, which I've listed below.

The most recent problem, described below, was severe enough that I decided to return or exchange it. It was supposed to be warrantied for a year, so I dug up the receipt, only to find that although the warrantee was good for a year, the receipt had expired! Which makes the "warranty" worthless. (My mistake, I bought it from Target, a store with a terrible return policy.) (This is Target's fault of course, not the manufacturer's). I could send it back to the manufacturer, but the postage would cost almost as much as the heater.

Summing things up:

1) WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS HEATER:

* It heats effectively. I don't know how it would do in a huge room, but it heats my small living room quickly and effectively, even on low. It's 49 degrees outside tonight, cold and windy, but toasty (over 74 degrees) in my living room...
