5.0 out of 5 stars It Attaches easily to the propane tank and generates a lot of heat.

This propane tank attachable outdoor heating unit
is absolutely amazing! It sets up quickly, attaches easily to the tank, (a lighter that's used to light BBQ grills is recommended for safety) and makes lighting the heater easy. We do pop-up shops during the winter season, so this heater will be very usefull. We plan to use it for a full day very soon, and we'll update the review as needed.

Update:
We used the heater during 30-degree temps without a tent, and it exceeded our expectations. It gets hot instantly and lights very easily. With 3 temp settings, the low setting was used most of the day, and we kept at least 2 feet away due to the amount of heat that it generated. After sunset it got colder, so we turned the temp setting to medium and we were nice and toasty, and this was still without a tent.
Conclusion: If you need an outdoor heat source that attaches to a propane tank, and generates a tremendous amount of heat, then don't hesitate to buy this unit. You'll be very happy you did!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't underestimate
Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2024
This thing is a furnace!
Imagine a basic tall patio heater but inverted. This thing is seriously warm. Low is intense at this time of the Fall season.
It's great for a large group of people outside. It's a lot bigger than I imagined and is really meant for heating a large area.
The saftey grill and base cools off quickly for storage. The jury is still out on the fuel life. But if you're more concerned about keeping your friends warm outside for an event this is a simple inexpensive, easy to store option.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heater was every thing I hoped it would be
Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2024
This heater was great! it kept my team warm once the sun went down. The fact that it is 360° makes this one better than the others. It did put off quite a bit of heat on the Lowest setting. You can angle it slightly how ever when it was angled the heat seemed to radiate up instead of out. Not a big deal. It worked better than I imagined. I have plenty of propane left from about 4 hours of use. Best part was it cooled down really quick so I could store it in my car for the ride home. If you are looking for an easy heating solution if you don’t mind it being slightly bulky this is it. But I knew that when buying it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Can't Say Enough...
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2024
Okay, first time writing a review ever..
I can't say enough about Mr Heater. It is easy to set up and the ability to just take it off of the propane tank is unbelievable. No need to figure out where and how to store and move and cover one if those other tall heaters. This one hits the spot. Done for the season? Just detach and store in the garage on a hook or something. Use the tank for the BBQ etc.
Mr Heater puts out some serious heat. Sitting outside, you are nice and cozy. And the adjustable directional head makes it nice to be able to direct the heat where you need it. Low, Medium and High are awesome for setting that perfect level of comfort.
Mr Heater has allowed friends to extend their stay outside in comfort and companionship.
It so terrific that I had to purchase two for buddies as gifts and the Father-in-law bought two for himself.
Just remember, safety first when using. Not too close.
Also, best to not leave outside in the elements too long after use.
All in all, one one of the best purchases I've made.
Who's next on my X-mas list?

4.0 out of 5 stars Heats nice
Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2024
Heats nicely all the way around, looks ugly but it is a propane tank topper so... easy to hook up and use, easy to switch tanks which is good because this bad bought blows thru the propane. Not loud but you know it's on. No smell and warms our open air patio enough to sit around and enjoy the evening.

5.0 out of 5 stars Melts my arm hairs when starting
Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2024
This guy's a beast! For a simple propane tank topper he drops some serious heating power! I do wish it had a even lower setting as in the spring and fall I've had to light it multiple times due to it over heating my garage. But when it's -10 outside, it was a true champ!

Solid build and no issues after a years use, and maybe 30-40 propane tanks used.

Very accurate description in the store.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Heatet
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2024
Very powerful and the manual lighting makes it very easy to light. We had two other porch heaters with piezo electric lighting that were very difficult to light. This one lights very easily with a long match. It gets very hot and is open so be careful if you have kids
