Nothing short of amazing. But remember it’s about BTUs with heaters. You are talking 5200 here. A round kerosene heater is 23,800 BTUs. So if you need that level of heat I suggest kerosene over this. This is supplemental heat. Take the chill off. It’s not meant to heat your whole house like a kerosene heater would or your gas furnace. Kerosene also will work when your power goes out in SHTF situations whereas you probably don’t want to waste 1500 watts of generator power on this heater unless you absolutely have to. So this tiny heater at only 1500 watts puts out some serious heat IMO. Park it 15-20 ft from you, set it to 68 on eco with the oscillator on and you’ll be thinking about shorts in half an hour. The thing is amazing IMO. Online sites say this can heat a room anywhere from 400sq ft to 1000 depending on whom you believe. I’m not sure about 1000, but it’s a lot closer to 1000 than 400. If you are going for 1000 have a fan to move that warm air around and don’t think this little box will magically do it for you. A home HVAC system has registers all around for that same reason. Distribute the air! Build quality. Wow. It’s not cheap. I mean it’s particle board and plastic, but it’s quality. Nice wheels on it. Nice display. Nice remote. Even comes with batteries which I never use because I don’t trust batteries included with products, but I am sure they are ok. Humidifier works wonderfully. Not sure about reviews claiming it leaks. Did you read the directions? Put in BOTH O rings??? Remember to use distilled water. I can’t speak to longevity yet, but I have read reviews of these getting very high up in years. I’m impressed. The keys with this unit IMO are: 1. The fan. It blows the heat and gets it out into the room. 2. Oscillation. I’m sure that makes a big difference because it’s spreading the heat around. Bonus if you stop it the fins stay pointed in whatever direction you stopped it at. 3. Eco mode. It stops and starts nicely. That will save you some dough ray me. I was worried about the reviews and if you are too don’t be. IMO it’s a winner, but remember it’s 5200 BTUs.

Well you scrolled for a review so here it is, the heater point blank is just really good. I got this heater because of a mistake, buying a bathroom heater that was greatly priced but it didn't produce anywhere NEAR the same heat this heater does. I'll admit when opening the box, it was really small, especially compared to other heaters we have in the house right now, but after a good few cold weeks, size definitally doesn't matter. The humidifier is good. Not really out of the way amazing, not extremely effective, but it works and is there. Somehow this system exists and Dr. Heater thought it was great, and for someone who gets really scratchy and irritable at night when it's uncomfortably hot and dry. Humidity is your best friend. And the fact you don't even need the stock bottle is even better. I have a big smart water bottle back there 😂. The user control is truly present on this heater. Luxury heater for sure. If you Need a humidifier, I'd say keep the one you have and have this one as well if you feel like it doesn't produce enough humidity. All depends on how you feel. Other then that I agree with the Comments, pretty useless other then that, that's why they let you take the thing off 😂😂😂. BTW there are replacement pieces for the humidifier water gasket inside, Dr. Heater cares about you, The humidifier isn't halfed ass, just is not THAT necessary. This thing blows out hot air very well, even in uninsulated areas. When the cold is to much, the oscillation is a amazing feature, seriously amazing, only problem with it is there's a timer on it that isn't as long as you would want it to be if your really cold. It does start up and warm up fast. It's very easy to repair, the backside comes loose with just a screw driver, and BOOM fan, fuses, whatever is needed, is all there, so much user comfort and self maintence is very much present. I have a very good example of a heater that doesn't care for user needs. I stripped it and all, should not be necessary to remove as many screws as I had to. To add, this company doesn't seem that big, but the added full warranty on labor and parts is nice as well. If you look at warranties for other heaters, they can be janky and only provide warranty on parts. Durability wise it seems to hold up. It has knockover protection. I been kicking this thing around and letting it sit right in the coldest areas for hours, then turning it on. Playing with the vent Jaws that oscillate, and I mean it's all sturdy... So all in all, for a heater at this price, I'd say it's a really above average heater. Very acceptable as a staple heater or a kitchen room heater. It will not heat up a really large area (the pictures were taken in my front living room, and there's a decently sized den that's uninsulated that the heater keeps warm) which I'm sure is already obvious. Don't let the size fool you. If you want somthing more durable or hotter, you gotta go with heaters in the 200 buck range with copper fuses. They're also alot bigger. Other then that, this is a solid heater across the board worth the buy, but if your house is on the bigger side, this is an OK heater, and OK isn't that great in the winter when you feel it. Be wise Amazon shoppers, best of luck!

I did quite a lot of looking around and reading of product reviews before I came to this choice. I believe I chose wisely! I bought this heater for supplementing my oil furnace driven baseboard heat. My house is a 1000 sq. ft. open loft style with cathedral ceilings so it has lots of open air space. I knew I would need something that could belt out heat well and evenly. I settled on this one mainly because of the added humidifier and oscillation capability since most others didn't have those features. This heater does the trick for my situation. I keep my thermostat at a solid 60F so it doesn't turn on the furnace as often. I use this heater to bring that up to about 64-68 (I don't mind it a little cooler). Usually I will have it run downstairs with oscillation and humidifier on and set it to 64-68 (depending on different factors). So far it has been very successful at keeping the downstairs area at around that temp. We haven't hit any severe cold snaps in NY yet, but as of Nov 2014 we have had a few below 20's and it did fine keeping up during those dates too. It keeps the downstairs a pretty solid temperature, and usually the upstairs area (its a master bedroom loft) will stay about 2 degrees warmer than downstairs. This is after I seal and throw plastic on all of the windows for the winter. I imagine this wouldn't work quite as well if I hadn't done that, but I digress. The heater shifts from high, to low, to just fan as needed depending on the internal thermostat. This is indicated by the lights. I have only run it on auto so far and haven't seen any need to put it on solid high or low as it regulates itself quite well. The default auto temp is 68F and can be easily changed up or down anytime. When it said "oscillating" I thought that it meant that the whole unit was on a turntable that turned. However, it is simply the inner slots inside where the heat comes out that swivel back and forth. This is a smarter design as it is far less mechanical and saves more energy not turning the weight of the whole unit. The oscillation covers about a 60 degree arc so it spreads the heat decently at least in one direction. The oscillating slots are made of a high temp polymer (plastic) which feels weird as you think it may melt them or denature the polymer with enough time, but they do fine right now. The humidifier functions pretty well. When on it shoots a solid jet of cool mist about a foot above the unit. There is a tiny sliding door that you can use to close off the hole where the mist comes out which I guess is to possibly regulate the mist a little, but all in all seems kind of pointless. Maybe to prevent dust and such from getting in when it's off I guess? There's a pleasant blue light that illuminates the back reservoir and bottle. I like it, but I know some people are sticklers for random L.E.D. lights. The back reservoir's design is one of the few things I don't like about this unit. It's simply a tiny reservoir with the misting unit built into it. It hangs off the back of the unit via a plastic pipe that sends the mist into the unit. The connection is solid and I haven't had it leak on me from there, but when you put a 3 liter bottle on the back full of water like I have set up, it seems like it's a lot of weight to have on top of the reservoir for it to be just connected by the pipe. I wish there was some other supporting structure to prevent the pipe from flexing backwards slightly under the weight. It has two included adapters for different sized bottles. I use the normal soda bottle size adapter. A full 3 liter bottle of water lasts about a day to a day and a half if constantly on. It does a nice job at supplementing my PureGuardian 4500 humidifier. My house is all wood so humidity is important to me. The castors on the bottom allow for an easy glide across the floor. Almost too easy sometimes as I often will put it on a small wooden side table and the slightest push or pull can bring it very close to the edge. Castor locks would have been appreciated. The general construction and design are fine. Cord is plenty long. Included remote controller works fine and comes with battery. The toggle buttons feel a little cheap and sometimes you have to push like you mean it to turn something on or off (with exception to the unit power button which has actual on/off positions). The unit also has a built in filter for the back so it does clean the air a bit at least. Possible limiting factors: - The fan noise is definitely noticeable when on high setting so don't expect a "whisper quiet" unit. I don't mind the white noise. - The humidifier reservoir itself can become over full sometimes and leak onto the floor, but if you pay attention to it there shouldn't be a problem. It's not leaking from the pipe itself, just spilling over as it were. - The oscillation motor can sometimes emit a clicking or creaking noise which is quite evident. I don't know if that's normal or if it's just a small flaw of my unit, but it's not enough to bug me. You can always shut it off. - This unit has a 1500W max draw which means it does need a dedicated circuit. That basically means that if you have this plugged in and use another appliance on the same circuit (such as from an outlet on the same wall) it will kick your breaker off or possibly fry something. So just pay attention to what and where you're plugging things in when in use. I haven't gotten a solid cycle of bills to see how well this "saves" on energy, but I'm really using it more so I spend a little more on electricity than fuel/oil. -This unit isn't as ascetically pleasing as some of the other units I have seen, especially the LifeSmart infrared heaters.The button array and display are reminiscent of an appliance from the seventies. The wood stain would look a little better darker I think. I have seen a similar wattage LifeSmart heaters that also worked very well and looked a lot better. So if you care about the design and color of your furnishings you may opt for the LifeSmart, but you'll miss out on the extra functionality of this unit with the humidifier and oscillator. I will update as I use this in more situations and know what the final damage is from its use in my electric bills. Stay warm! *Update 12/22/14* Have gotten two bills since purchasing. Both where about 50$ more than normal, but that's also taking into account the energy used by the supplementing oil furnace/boiler. My oil tank was at 7/8 and now is about 5/8 which is a much slower decrease than last year already (even though it's started out colder this year so far) This is with the unit set on auto for pretty much 24/7 unless it's a clear sunny day (passive solar heating does wonders in my house) All in all it will definitely prevent me from having to refill my oil tank halfway through the winter like last year so it's still a positive purchase for my situation. Hope this helps, I'll keep posting on it. *Update 2/22/14* Heater is still running fine and is still on pretty much 24/7. We have gotten some significant cold snaps here in NY (consistently below 0F w/ wind chill) and this heater performed okay at keeping the temp in my house above 60F (what my thermostat is set to). The heater can only work as good as my insulating job and it's doing how I thought it would for the situation. During the coldest colds my furnace was still kicking on every so often, but only the lower part of the house since it is very large and open. The loft still stayed 2-4 degrees warmer than the rest so it's performing in that aspect. I have become a little more disappointed with the humidifier attachment. It now leaks out the bottom of the unit causing me to have to put rags down to soak up the resulting water. I think this is because of splash droplets from the ultrasonic disc falling through the fan hole, but haven't been able to pinpoint it. The humidifier still works fine as long as it's kept de-calcified, but the leaking is a little irking because of how much more this unit was than the one w/out the humidifier on it. If I can't stop the leak, then I'm dropping this from 4 stars to 3 on my next update. Ta ta for now.

After owning EdenPure and another "Infrared" heater which claim they don't dry up the air but all heaters seem to still do dry up the air unless you have a humidifier. I got tired of cleaning a humidifier so I decided to give this one a try. Love the humidifier with a sliding cover which blows out a mist of very fine steam from the top of the unit. Not sure if the blue light coming from the water container is a ultra-violet light for anti-bacterial purpose or not? But the light blue glow is pretty cool at night and it duals as a night light. The fan noise level is quieter than my EdenPure and I recommend placing the heater out in the hallway at night or just aim the heater's fan in the direction of the bedroom so it can heat up all the bedrooms with doors open and you will hardly hear the fan noise at all. I'd recommend Micathermic heaters in each bedroom, which is the quietest because they are fanless. Challenge was finding a 16 oz. coke/sprite bottle that would fit the valve for the humidifier. I only wish they use a larger size bottle like 20 oz + so I don't need to refill the bottle daily. But a 16 oz. bottle seems to last the entire night and they give you 2 adaptors so you can have 2 bottles ready with one for back up when the other one runs out to alternate between the two. They recommend using distilled water but I just use reverse osmosis filtered water for the humidifier which seems to work fine. The product does what it claims to do: it heats up faster and the heat is hotter than my larger EdenPure, probably because of the dual ceramic/infrared heater elements. I read other complaints about ceramic heaters and complaints about this one only having one infrared bulb but I think this heater actually works better than my larger EdenPure with 4 bulbs and it is a very well designed portable heater which takes advantage of the best of both ceramic technolgy (for faster and hotter heating) and infrared technology (for less dried air) and it makes the best use of both. I also love the large buttons and user-friendly interface layout with large LED temperature readout display. In AUTO mode, the thermostat lets you set a specific temperature; and the humidifier and fan buttons allow you to run fan only and/or turn on/off the optional humdifier optionally with the heater. I placed this heater in the hall way to heat up 3 bedrooms and it works great and save us a lot of money on heating bills.

This is a great heater. I got it to supplement comfort in the living room, and it works great. I really love these types of heaters, and I have a black and decker heater as well (all metal sides, no digital readout, 1000 wats, cost almost as much as this one but got it at the hardware store in town last winter). I did have the problem with the soda bottle not sealing into the humidifier, but it was easily fixed by pulling the rubber seal from the second adapter and using both seals on the single adapter. It is roughly the same size as the lawn hose seals you can find at walmart in the garden section for a few bucks. Bottom line, you will not find a humidifier on a heater like this for this price, and all you need to do is fit your soda bottle (I use the 20 oz coke/pepsi bottle) and flip it, if it leaks out the side then take the adapter top off and head out and fit a rubber seal into it, and you should be golden (or do what I did, and pry the seal out of the other adapter). I saw many complaints of the seal leaking, but this heater with humidifier plus the extra cost from a local store if your seal is leaking is well worth the investment. I have not seen any other heaters with the humidifier, and I love this because of it. It is very pleasant on the sinuses, has a really great timer shut off feature, and the digital temperature readout is awesome. I would highly recommend this heater to anyone who is looking to add supplemental heat, or heat a medium sized room (we have no central air in the upstairs part of the house, and it works great up there). I would buy again and recommend to a friend. UPDATE: I bought one more of these last Winter (JAN 2014 was the last purchase) when my parents from AZ came to visit to put in the guest room. Last Winter was pretty cold for TN standards, and we even got about a weeks worth of snow coverage. The heaters worked great all through the winter and really helped supplement our aging heat pump downstairs. We were very comfortable upstairs (we have baseboard heat we don't like to use because we have furniture against the walls) using just these heaters. One heater does not oscillate any more, but we didn't really use that feature anyway. Other than that, both heaters are still pumping heat (we have had some cold TN nights/days down in the 20's already), and the humidifiers on both are still working. Using the second gasket from the adapter that does not fit on U.S. 20oz style soda bottle has made it so that we have never had a leak from this heater. The bottom line in unchanged, I would still highly recommend this heater to anyone looking to supplement or heat a small/medium sized room. Not only did I say I would buy again, but I did buy again, and we are still very happy we did.

The DR. Infrared Heater DR-123 Indoor has been an excellent addition for keeping my space warm and comfortable. What impressed me most is how quickly it heats the room without making the air feel dry or stuffy it’s a very natural, even warmth. The unit runs quietly, which makes it perfect for a bedroom or office, and the build quality feels solid and durable. I also appreciate the safety features and the fact that it doesn’t get excessively hot to the touch, which gives peace of mind. It’s energy-efficient, easy to use, and does exactly what it promises. Overall, a dependable heater that delivers consistent performance and comfort.

I love this heater. I do understand why some reviewers mentioned it ran and never kicked off. I thought the same until I called the 800 # for Dr Heater (which btw answered the call immediately. I thought I’d be on hold forever). While on the phone she had me test the room temperature by pressing the mode and temp down button at the same time. You can’t do it with remote. The room temp read 61°. Which is not accurate because our furnace is set at 70°. Rep said it won’t match the temp your furnace thermostat reads. So when I first used, I set the heat temp at 71°. No wonder it didn’t kick off. Knowing that it’s reading room temp about 9° less than what house furnace thermostat is reading, I just set the heater at 63° and it’s warming room and kicking on and off as it reaches temp setting. Weird I know. It’s important to do the room temp read so you know where to set the temp based off that. It does have a bit of burning off smell but that’s going away. Manual said that’s typical. This is an attractive well built unit and a nice compact size. It’s heavy and nice that it’s on rollers. I’ll probably be buying another one to replace one in another room.

The heater itself works good, the humidifier is another story! I purchased mine in October of '24 but didn't start using it until late November of '24. It worked well until the end of February '25. When i made the purchase I bought two units, one of the units I purchased is still working but not used even half as much as the one that no longer works (humidifier) plus you had to fill the plastic bottle about every three hours and that got to be a pain in the rear. The oscillator has become somewhat irritating as well as it has become noisy when it is turned on. I called support on the humidifier issue and had to send them the Amazon order to verify the purchase which I totally understand and a photo of the model & serial number again I totally understand as well. The support person I talked with wasn't that helpful and I don't know if she was located in the US or not. She wanted me switch out the humidifier in the other unit with the one that didn't work (trying to narrow down what was happening) I was reluctant to do that simply because if it were a possible electronic issue it could damage it as well! So to end this long review, BUYER BE WARE!
