Lasko Oscillating Digital Ceramic Tower Heater for Home with Adjustable Thermostat, Timer and Remote Control, 23 Inches, 1500W, Silver, 755320

Efficient and durable, have mine for four years! Energy efficient and Heat large rooms! (9yr Update)
*Scroll to bottom for 9 year update!*Purchased five of these four years ago, during winter 2011. My wife and I live in NYC, the apartment we lived in at the time had issues with the heating system. The landlord and I worked out a deal so I may purchase these and he’d cover the expenses (I get to keep them), including the difference on the electric bill. We lived in a large second floor four bedroom apartment.The heat emitted from these are wonderful and the automatic setting keeps each room you have one in extremely comfortable. After having moved from the apartment gave 2 back to the landlord which, he left in the apartment for the next tenants (new tenants are friends of mine and love the heaters). In my new apartment I still use one of the three heaters in addition to the apartments heating system to keep it comfortable at all times. Lent one to a friend of my wife’s who’s heating went out while landlord was away for a few days and she loved it – preferred it over the regular heating system. She asked if she may keep it for longer and kept it for a few months until she decided to purchase one.You may use one in a large room and it works extremely well. In our previous apartment the master bedroom was huge. It was big enough to fit a queen size bed (could’ve easily fit a king), with entire bedroom set, two large wardrobe closets, a long full-size sofabed, desk with chair, and a chest of drawers – no it didn’t look crowded and yes still had plenty space to spare – yes it really was in NYC.Four years of use and the heaters still work just as well as the first day. Extremely energy efficient, doesn’t make a big difference on the electric bill. We keep it on the automatic temperature setting so it turns on once it reaches below a specific setting. Even when it stays on for long periods of time doesn’t make much of a dent on the electric bill.9 Year Update:My original review was written in 2015 (4 years after purchasing), this was my first winter in current apartment. After writing the review we decided to stop using the apartments heating system and fully switch back to using these heaters as we did in our previous apartment. The apartment uses steam radiators (just like previous apartment) and we originally figured it would work out using it here better than in our previous apartment. It did heat the apartment much better than the previous one, however it heated the apartment a bit too much. The amount of steam and heat even if turned down extremely low, was unbearable – plus it would randomly start emitting a loud banging noise (like someone hammering on the metal pipes within the walls) every so often which was extremely annoying especially in the middle of the night. We decided to turn the steam radiators completely off and started strictly using the Lasko heaters again. Two winters later, in 2017 two of the three heaters died out and completely stopped working in the beginning of winter – they lasted 7 long years without weakening or any other issues. We replaced them with two of the same exact heaters. The third heater is now 9 years old and it worked just as well as the two newer heaters during the last two winters (remainder of 2017 and all of 2018). We did purchase a Dyson fan/heater in summer of 2017 and then again in summer of 2018, as well as a small tabletop Lasko heater (also an extremely amazing heater by Lasko) which we placed on the bathroom windowsill. We do now also use them in addition to the three Lasko heaters, but only purchased them because we wanted to have the ability to keep the three Lasko heaters at significantly lower settings while still maintaining the desired apartment temperature. Since we also wanted to add fans for warmer weather, we decided it made sense to purchase all in one device’s to not have to have two fans plus two extra heaters as we don’t have much space for storage. While we also like the Dyson devices, the Lasko heaters by far outperform the heat from the Dyson devices. The Dyson devices do have the pros of being cool to the touch and children cannot burn themselves with it, plus it has a wide angle setting which emits the heat for a whole section as opposed to only being directional. Either way, the Lasko heaters heat a room while only being directional and obviously last without losing strength for years to come. The Dyson devices seem to lose strength after continuous days of use and need to be powered off for a few hours every once in a while, and the first one purchased had completely stopped emitting heat on the fourth or fifth month of use. It may have been defective as once replaced neither of the two Dysons stopped emitting heat and hopefully last as well as the Lasko heaters – especially since they are by far significantly more expensive.Hope the original review and this update help others who are looking to make a decision on whether or not it’s worth the purchase.Fyi, my friends (mentioned in original review) still have the ones we left for them in our previous apartment and they are also still going strong – which means 2 devices lasted 7 years, and then 9 years and 9 NY winters later the other 3 are still going strong. For less than $80 – you seriously can’t go wrong!

This Lasko heater works great. Have had it for 2 yrs, zero problems, and it can get as hot as you want. Great product. Lasko is known for being bulletproof and great quality.

Muy buen calentador, lo uso para una habitación de 5 x 6 y mantiene muy bien la temperatura. No es silencioso por lo que sí hay ruido mientras está encendido, pero es lo equivalente a un ventilador. Eso sí, recomiendo tener cuidado con su uso, porque el recibo de la luz puede aumentar bastante si se usa de forma prolongada. 🫠

Mi hermana nos regaló un pequeño calentador de otra marca (De’Longhi) que dejó de funcionar justo al año. Busqué opciones para un calentador de mayor capacidad compré uno de aceite de la misma marca que tuve que regresar a la semana porque simplemente no calentaba lo suficiente. El termómetro pasaba de 19 a 21 grados con el aparato encendido durante horas: mucho gasto para tan pobre rendimiento.Entonces cambié de marca y compré este calefactor Lasko.Como todos los calefactores, consume mucha electricidad: 1,600 w/h, pero por lo menos sí calienta más, en menos tiempo: un espacio de 4 x 5 lo pone a 24 grados en poco tiempo. Es muy silencioso y compacto.
