Our heat recently broke, so I pulled out this space heater, that I had from a while ago. It does a good job heating the space around it, but it is quite noisy, and it only seems to heat the space immediately surrounding it - it didn't heat the entire room. I originally bought this to heat a small office, and it did a great job with the small space. I especially enjoyed having it near my feet, as it heated my feet/under my desk. It was an economical purchase as well, as it was on the lower price point. However - when using it in a larger space, it didn't seem to work as well. It was good for the money, but an upright unit likely would have worked better in a bigger space.

Right before winter I moved into a new (new to me) house. When it started to get cold we realized that the heater for the house was gas, not electric. Not really wanting to hook gas up to the house just yet, we bought two Patton MaxFlow Radiant Heaters. They are awesome! The heater is small and not loud at all. So you hardly even know that it is there. On top of that, it heats great! With two heaters we were able to heat a large master bedroom, two other bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, and two other bathrooms. That is a lot of area to cover and with no other help from any other heating sources. I love my Patton MaxFlow Radiant Heaters and would reccomend them to anyone in need of a space heater.

In the winter, taking a shower when you had no heat is very uncomfortable.  Even the hot water didn't do any good.  I would take the Patton MaxFlow Radiant Heater in the bathroom with when I would take a shower and I could spend all day in there.  It's also great for when I'm out of the shower.  This lightweight heater would fill the house with warmth.

Patton Heater - MaxFlow Radiant Heater:  I actually like this heater a lot.  I do notice, however, that it doesn't throw the heat out very far.  If you have a small room or space to heat it may get the job done, but to heat a whole room with it would take a longer time.  For an entire room I would recommend a different product.  Overall it is a nice-looking product and it didn't crank up my electric bill.  I also am not sure if it was my wall outlet or if it was the heater, but I did notice that the cord on this product was warm and the plug was burning hot to the touch.  I had another electric heater (different company, different style) that burned through the cord where it entered the back of the heater.  It melted through my carpet in the living room, so I am always extra cautious about the cords and plugs.  I also didn't like that this heater rattles quite a bit when it's warming up, it obviously isn't a big deal since it warms up quickly, but it is something to consider.

it lasted during the store warranty then went to pieces. The overheat would come on for no reason ,the thermostat started sticking next, and the swithes fell to pieces. A piece of junk..- 10 rating.patton maxfoulup.

I own this heater and I am happy with the heat it provides.   The product seems to be energy efficient because I use it most every night for several hours while at my desk and have not noticed an increase in my electric bill.  I cannot suggest the product for heating a room; however, it does do well if set close (1-2 feet) to keep the chill off.

Great little heater, good for one person sitting directly in front of the heater in either a sitting or squating position. I use my in the cold of Alaska outside my house in my shed to keep warm as there is no other heat available to me. Without this heater I would be found frozen solid in the spring most likely, just a joke...but it does keep me warm enough.

I live in a 3 bedroom apartment with my older brother and my mom.  My mom is anemic and so she gets cold very easily.  I can have this on in my brother's room -- central to the apartment, and it will warm up the floor in my mom's room.  It makes a little clanky noise when it first comes on but is hardly a reason to not buy it!  I love it and I can also have it in my college residence hall without violating any policies...very safe.

The floor heater works great on heating up a room. I don't have to worry about heating the whole house. We keep it in the family room and my 1 year old is able to go near it with out me being over protective.  He has knocked it over once and the automatic shut off system worked great.  It didn't leave a mark on the carpet even though there was a burnt smell for a little while.  I would recommend this floor heater to all my friends.
