Air King 8365 Pedestal Ceramic Heater with Adjustable Thermostat, 8-hour Timer and Remote Control



Great heater!
This is an awesome heater! Its great for my home office and keeps it toasty warm. Its very nice looking, I love the remote, and the auto-temp is great. One of the main reasons I bought it though was for the timer, which is really important to me because Im always afraid of leaving it on. As soon as I walk in the room and turn it on with the remote, I automatically hit the timer also. BUT....my heater, the 8365, does NOT oscillate. The description for the heater says "the Air King 8365 offers a safe ceramic heating element, and widespread oscillation" and there is a button on the heater and the remote for oscillation, yet it doesnt do anything when I hit the button. Ive tried turning the temp way up, way down, all different things with no luck. There is a chart farther down that looks like it says the 8365 does not oscillate, so then why is it in the description & have buttons for it if it doesnt?? That makes no sense to me. Its not enough for me to send the heater back...

Works really well!
This heater works great for my small office! I love that it has an auto-temp setting. The thermometer isn't always that precise, but I don't need it to be. Having the timer gives me peace of mind that I'm not going to forget to turn it off and burn the building down. This heater is easy to put together. The pedestal it is on is sturdy enough, but is not designed to be moved around a lot. It does not have an "auto off" in case the heater gets knocked over, like I've seen on other space heaters.

Great heater
Love this heater, nice looking and functional. I like the oscillation feature and this thing puts out a bunch of heat.
A great buy!

Air King 5,118 BTU Electric Convection Heater #8605



It Will Certainly Warm A Medium Sized Room
I use the Air King 8605 to raise the room temperature of my bedroom from 60 degrees to 70 degrees. It works great! There's no fan, so it's noiseless. The upper grate does get hot. I can put my hand on it, without getting burned, but I'd avoid putting it anywhere where small children might touch it. It does put out over 5000 BTUs of heat when turned all the way up, so be prepared for your electric meter to spin.

Quiet
I have four of these. They are quiet and work well. In fact, they are silent. We use them to heat bedrooms when using the pellet stove in the main part of the home. The thermostat works well, but doesn't tell you the specific temperature, but once you find the correct setting you just leave it. Excellent heater. Nice looking. Quiet--in fact, silent.

MONEY MAKER
Really lowered my heating bill about 35%. It has already paid for itself in one winter. It is totally quiet and looks sleek. It has a high low setting, so you can save even more money. I just hope it lasts more than one winter.
