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

The Lasko Oscillating Digital Ceramic Tower Heater works incredibly well. It heats the room quickly, runs quietly, and the adjustable thermostat keeps the temperature just right. I love the timer and remote control—they make it super convenient. Slim, powerful, and reliable—perfect for keeping any space warm!

These heaters are excellent. I own 2 and I’m buying a 3rd. I bought them on Amazon over a year ago and use them daily in the winter (Nov-March). We live in Vermont and primarily heat with wood and wood pellets. There are a few areas that the wood heat has a hard time reaching in our house so I bought these to supplement. We use one in our bedroom and one in our toddler’s room. They heat up quickly, warm larger rooms well, and the thermostat, timer, etc work as advertised. I saw a review that complained about the unit reaching 77 when set to 73. The manual clearly states that the thermostat allows the temp to rise 4 degrees above the set temp before shutting off. It then kicks back on when it reads 1 degree below set temp. This gives the unit time to cool down while the room temp gradually (or not so gradually in an old house like ours) drops back to the set temp. Otherwise this thing would just keep running and be turning on and off way more frequently if there’s only a 2 degree temp range. This isn’t your home furnace…it’s a small space heater with a reasonably accurate and reliable thermostat. Also keep in mind it sits down low so the temp it reads may differs slightly from the temp read by a thermometer higher up in the room. I have accurate analog thermometers in every room to monitor heat distribution and can say these units are consistent and register the same temp drops and elevations that my room thermometers do. They’re usually reading a few degrees cooler than my thermometers which I expect since they’re low and on a cold floor. As far as safety goes, we’ve had zero issues with overheating or any issues I’ve seen in other reviews. With a mix of newer and older wiring we’ve had no issues whatsoever. We have these running all night nearly every night from November to March and during extra cold days we move them around if we’re home and cold. When running they are warm but not dangerously hot to the touch. Even the front grill can be touched without burning when operating on high output after a running a while. My toddler does not mess with it but has accidentally knocked it over and picked it back up safely by himself while it’s running. Likewise my dog likes to lay near it and has run into it without injuring himself. These heaters have not led to a major energy cost increase. In summary, I highly recommend these. Like I said, was back on this page over a year later to buy another one because they’re that good. I’ve used a number of alternatives and none has matched the heat output, energy cost, or safety these have provided so until I have an issue I’ll stick with them. I will update this review if anything changes.

I bought 2, came quick, fair price, works great, satisfied and would recommend. Has a real nice remote control. Osicillates to distribute the heat. I use it for the bathroom but would work for a bedroom chill chaser.

Solid heater and I know Lasko is supposedly a known name for space heaters so I thought I'd give this one a try. I actually purchased about 8 different space heaters to evaluate which one I would keep and this is one of the two that I did keep. I'm using this to heat my daughters room at night rather than heating the whole house. Here's my pros vs cons breakdown for this. Pros: 1. Heats well 2. Remote 3. Well built 4.Platic front doesn't get too hot 5. Displays the ambient temperature (many don't do this, which I find annoying since it leaves you unaware of what the progress of the heating) 6. Rotates as an option. Cons: 1. The handle doesn't have a lip to catch your finger, so the handle is nearly worthless for one-handed carrying since it's very hard to have a proper grip. 2. There is no way to dim or turn off the screen. This can be annoying if this is used in a bedroom. I really don't understand how any consumer electronics do not consider this. 3. The fan is louder than I thought. I can't use this in my office since I find it too loud for when I have phone calls, etc., but it's okay for using in my daughter's room since her sound machine is louder than this anyway. The heater we had in her room was much quiter so I now use that in my office. Note: of the 8 units I bought, the fan noise was similar or louder. I'm not sure why my older heater is so much more quiet. Unfortunately, I can't find that one available for sale anymore...rats!! 4. The angle of the screen faces up, so you can't read it while sitting or laying down. Not a dealbreaker by any means, and perhaps it was designed to be read while standing, and may be more advantagous while doing so. With that said, this is a solid heater and the price was very comparable to many of the scores of non-branded units available here on Amazon. I'd recomend it as a solid buy unless one of the cons listed about is a dealbreaker for you.

Can definitely heat a room within an hour and bring it up 10°. The area I sleep is 12 / 18 feet and seems to do the job well as far as keeping temp. Reduce cost using this by spot heating if utility bills are out of sight

*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!

Looks nice, heats up my home office quickly - can't complain. One good thing to note with this specific product is that you CAN adjust the temperature in 1-degree increments. Should be a standard thing, however there was another Lasko product I was initially looking at that apparently only adjusted in 5-degree increments, which is not ideal. But yeah anyway - I had an old Delonghi heater that I had for a few years that started having weird electrical problems all of a sudden -- like turned on on its own, followed by the electronics buzzing and flashing all kinds of symbols. Totally weird. This new Lasko heater does its job very well - definitely recommend.

This is an awesome, affordable space heater. The controls are great, it has hi and low heat functions, a thermostat function that turns off at a certain temperature (though only if you're using high heat), a timer. The remote is great, it oscillates, it heats up a room very swiftly. It is otherwise perfect for what it is other than, in my eyes, the one flaw: It has the worst 'handle' ever designed. It's just a rectangular cut-out with nearly no texture to grip, angled in such a way to easily slip off your fingers. There is no ledge or lip of any sort to grip into, it's just the perfect design to effortlessly slip off of your fingers. I have no idea why anyone would think this was a good design. I have dropped this several times while moving it but thankfully I was always very cautious because I knew it was so easy to drop so there's been no damage to it. Other than that, fantastic space heater.
