Title: Ignore the bad reviews............. this machine WORKS !!!
Review: Got mine installed and did not have the hinge rear to drop access to the wire hookup area. Simple install to the garage ceiling with a pilot hole for a 2" long, 1/4 in width wood hex head with nice big flat washers to support the single center attachment point to the garage ceiling. Ezy pzy and plenty secure. I wanted to be able to turn the fan direction if wanted.Ran 10 ga 2 wire with ground to it from the QUALITY dryer plug bought here at the Zon, and wired the unit. I set on heat level #2 and turned it on.Excellent HOT heat coming out, and 12 feet away the fan is clearly doing it's job. The fan power is fine, the heat is HOT just set on 2, and the only potential drawback for some is the thermostat is not as accurate in function as your whole house furnace is. Who cares?Most are using this for a garage or shop, and some don't want those to drop under freezing when unattended and unused. I set up a remote temp sensor and in a 12 x 25 ft garage, in Omaha NE and if you want to keep your garage above freezing, this unit can do that. Really, it can do that not working very hard.I was thinking this was a big toy, might help a little or might not. I was wrong. This is a serious tool, well made, works, hot heat and fan plenty strong - and all at $109? Are you kidding me??Can see other uses for this heater, too. This is NOT a toy, works, HOT heat, good fan, makes a bit of mild fan noise but WHO CARES? You sleeping in your garage?I got the ex warranty so if this goes South I'm covered, but by any account this is a nice unit, works, built solidly and if you do your own wiring be SAFE and be SURE to use a GOOD dryer plug with a lot of surface contact to your 10 ga wire. Critical. Tight and solid good connections is important. Get your gas cans out of your garage and into the shed.Read directions and adhere to them. They're there for a reason. My garage ceiling is only 7" but I attached this as high as I could right to the ceiling joists, center factory attachment point with big flat washers to help support.VERY impressive heater at this price point!!! Nice. My only nitpick is they should have made the ground attachment point the same as the two positives, with easy secure attachment. I used the extra wide wire crimper tool to secure a yellow 10ga wire loop to the end of the ground wire, then attached that to the ground point on the unit where they supplied the hex head bolt attachment. Works fine. Just UN-necessary and their trying to maximize profit by saving a buck a copy. No bid deal. GOOD UNIT.PS: The Zon 10 ga 2 wire and one ground wire pricing was way better than the big store big name hardware stores here!!

Title: Great for my small shop
Review: The Comfort Zone Electric Space Heater provides reliable heat output and effective temperature control and makes my garage shop a comfortable and functional space even in colder weather.The heat output of this electric space heater is impressive. It quickly warms up the entire shop (it is about the size of a one car garage), creating a cozy environment for various activities. Whether I'm working on DIY projects, doing repairs, or simply spending time in the shop, the Comfort Zone heater ensures that the space remains comfortably warm. I also like that the temperature shuts off once it gets too hot so that I don't have to worry about safety risks of the heater just running itself to unsafe temperature levels.The temperature control features of this space heater are a standout aspect of its performance. The adjustable thermostat allows me to customize the temperature to my liking, ensuring that the shop is neither too hot nor too cold.It was fairly easy to hard wire to my existing shop set up and screwed easily to the ceiling with the mount.In conclusion, the Comfort Zone Electric Space Heater has proven to be a reliable and efficient solution for heating my shop. With its impressive heat output, customizable temperature control, ease of use, and safety features, it has become an indispensable tool for creating a comfortable workspace. I highly recommend this space heater to anyone seeking a practical and effective heating solution for their garage or similar spaces.

Title: Good heater KIT - assume you’ll need to reassemble the fan unit
Review: This is a good heater for the money. Easy to install, simple circuitry, heating elements vs. spiral wire, SState thermostat, etc. The elements run about 350 degrees at 5000 watts, and the air flow at the face is around 8.5 mph. I use two of these units to heat a double insulated 2000 sq.ft. metal building with three roll-up doors. They can maintain a temperature difference of between 20 and 30 degrees, which is what I was hoping to accomplish with 34,000 btu’s of heat in a 35,000 cf building.Note that this heater does NOT have a fan circuit that continues circulation when the thermostat cuts off. This is a good thing if you plan on using an external thermostat to cut the power as an off and on control. (Originally, I reported that the overheat circuit allowed the fan to run after shutting off the heating elements. However, that was incorrect. The overheat circuit interrupts power to the elements and the fan motor.)As so many have mentioned here, the fan blades are usually loose when this heater arrives. If they aren’t, they will be. Just assume that you are going to need to treat this as a kit that you are going to have to rebuild. Of the two units I ordered, one spun the fan off within 10 hours of use. So I decided to re-build both. I found that the second one also had a loose fan nut, though it hadn’t yet loosened to the point of dropping off.I also discovered that the unit that spun the fan off was missing a washer. There should be two washers; a notched washer behind the fan, and a standard washer in front of the fan. Mine was missing the standard flat washer. Of course, I didn’t know that until I onpened up and rebuilt the second one.As one reviewer mentioned, the fans are not formed accurately, and you need to make sure that the blade edges are even and track properly. I also found one of the fan blades to be well out of balance. After adjusting the blade pitch and balancing the fans, I reassembled the fan and motor assembly using BLUE locktite, and then remounted everything, again using blue locktite all around.As a final note, I just ordered a third unit to have as a back-up in case one of my units fail. Yes - I will rebuild this one without a second thought.So, overall, this gets five stars for value and utility, minus one star for the fan being assembled poorly.LATEST UPDATE: I purchased a fourth unit for use in my soon-to-be-built shop. I ‘reassembled’ my third unit and found that the fan was completely detached when new in box. This unit didn’t even include any of the fan washers! ( Yes - I searched the box and packing materials thoroughly.) Lucikily, the LHT nut and fan hub were in the unit, and I was able to find one suitable washer in my spare stuff, so I was able to get the heater rebuilt. As for the fourth unit, I found the fan assembly complete but the fan nut was barely finger tight. I easily removed the nut with no tools. I believe it would have spun off within a few hours of use (as one of my two original units did). However, all the parts were there, so I reassembled with blue locktite and all was good... until I found two broken rivets on the access door of the unit! So, two spare machine screws and nuts later, the unit was ready to use.So, in summary, of the four units I received, the fan was completely off of one, the fan spun off of another, the third and fourth had loose fan nuts (with the fourth having two broken rivets as well).

Review: CCC Comfort Zone, I was surprised by the quality of this product for such a low price. It is certainly of industrial quality. Before buying, I read all the reviews for this unit and one thing that came out a lot was that the unit often came with loose parts so before installing it I verified that all bolts and nuts were tight. Although mine seemed ok but didn't want to take a chance.This unit has a local thermostat but it is not very practical when the unit is 8 feet up. Therefore I bought an Aube RC840T-240 On/Off Switching Electric Heating Relay with Built-in 24 V that fit perfectly inside the unit so I could use my existing low voltage thermostat. I've been running it in my garage since the second week of September and it rocks 😉
