I took the Holmes FHF105 Heater out of the box and plugged it in. I smelt smoke and just thought it was the dust on the coils, then smoke continued and I saw flash of fire and top of the heater began to melt. So much for the safety features on this thing. I would not recommend this heater unless you want to burn down your house

APRIL1721 says "NEVER EVER AGAIN WILL I BUY A HOLMES HEATER" about Holmes HFH105 Ceramic Utility Heater

OK SO HERE IT IS... I BOUGHT 2 HOLMES HEATERS MODEL HFH105. I PUT ONE IN A KIDS ROOM AND ONE IN A BATHROOM. I WALKED INTO THE KIDS ROOM IN THE MORNING AND COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. I IMMEDIATLY CHECKED EVERYTHING. WHEN I GOT CLOSE TO THE HEATER THE SMELL WAS WORSE. I GRABBED THE PLUG FROM THE WALL AND NOTICED IT WAS PRETTY HOT. I LOOKED AT THE PLUG AND IT HAD BURNED NOT ONLY THE PLUG BUT MELTED SOME OF THE OUTLET ALSO. I WENT AND UNPLUGGED THE ONE IN THE BATHROOM ASAP, AND IT TO WAS ALSO REALLY HOT, BUT HAD NOT BURNED OR MELTED ANYTHING. IF I HAD NOT CAUGHT THIS IN TIME, IT COULD HAVE STARTED A FIRE, SPREAD THROUGH MY WALL, AND THROUGHOUT MY HOUSE. THIS IS CRAZY. WHY MAKE A PRODUCT THAT GETS SO HOT??? NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN WILL I BUY ANYTHING WITH THE NAME HOLMES ON IT.

live in basement apt. the heat is controlled upstairs and half the time the jerks shut off the heat. i was looking for a space heater during those times. i got the holmes heater because it was cheapest. it works great and after about 15 min. i have to shut it off or open a door...

This product works and everything the cost is low around twenty bucks....but the lifespan isn't very long...they last about six months...I have nothing but base board heaters in my house so I opt for using space heaters.....I keep buying this one cause it's cheap but I do have to replace it quite often...it does however heat up my whole apartment :)...
