Patton PUH680-U Utility Heater Review

This little heater is a great product!  Now, if you plan on buying a heater like this, you must take into consideration what it cannot do.  It is a little heater that doesn't cost very much, so don't expect it to heat your house, or even a large room.  In fact, if you use it continuously, you might as well have invested in a much larger oil-filled heater because this little heater will suck up electricity very fast, so be careful or your electricity bill will be much larger than expected.

Use this little handy heater to quickly heat up a small area in your house, like to warm up a medium size bedroom before you go to bed for the night, an entry-way for people coming in from the cold, etc.

It uses a fan to blow the air heated from the heated coils inside it forward.  Basically it's like a toaster with a fan blowing the heated air towards you.

The reason it gets such a high rating is because of the following.

1.  If you want quick heat after you've been outside in the cold, turn this heater on and sit near it.

2. It will heat up a medium size room in a reasonable time.  If you have guests coming over, are putting the kids to bed, etc and you need a specific room heated up, plug it in and let it do its magic.

3. If your kids or pets are prone to knocking stuff over, this heater is great.  If it gets tipped over, it turns off.

4. If the heater is placed too near a wall or enclosed space, the temperature gauge inside will sense if the heater area is too hot and shut off.

5. It is very portable and affordable, great for quick, direct heat.
