 Good value August 26, 2010
Ana Carolina Rojas (Miami, FL USA)
I live in Miami, I am a woman in my 30s. Our office is freezing everyday! It is not nice to work with a thermostat on the 50s and 60s that can't be changed. This product is great if you are looking for a heater for your office or desk. Its powerful and most important, silent. That was my main concern because I did not want to bother my coworkers.
It does look like a toaster or a roaster(I didn't receive the white one but brownish greenish...) but I don't care because its under my desk.
Good price too! I hope it lasts or I'll be mad.
 Here's why this heater is great July 11, 2010

I waited a year before I decided to make a review on this heater and so far it is still going strong. This is a great heater especially when you are using it at work. First off, it's a low power heater so it allows you to use 800 or 400 watts. This allows you to use it at work without worrying about blowing a fuse and making a complete ass out of yourself. Most heaters (even the small ones), will run at about 1500 watts and will easily shut down a circuit. Second, it gives off great heat. I've was hard pressed to find any amount of heat that this heater has given vs the heaters that use double the power. With the reflective background pushing the heat forward, you can easily feel it at about 8 feet away. This heater heats up my office in a place where everyone wants the air conditioning blasting, but I've had times where the co-workers were complaining that the heater was heating up the office too much. So, I'm giving this heater 5 stars because I've only have had good luck with it. I wish the same for anyone else that buys this heater.
great for the money July 4, 2010

This is my second Optimus. I bought it for two reasons. One is that it is a great little heater that heats up a small area in a hurry with low energy consumption, and it never has to shut down to cool off as fan models do. The other reason is that my first Optimus developed a mysterious short after about six months of constant use (about 16 hours/day), causing its performance to be unreliable. For the price, I decided it would be easier to buy another one than to test customer service, and be without it for a while (for health reasons, I require the heat almost constantly). So, now I have two, and am happy with both (when they are both working).
Great heater for the office June 30, 2010

This heater is great for the office, it's slightly larger than my last one, but still fits under my desk without difficulty. My last heater was not infrared, and the fan in it dried out my skin and my contact lenses. I have only used this heater at half the capacity, 400 W, and it gets extremely warm, yet does not dry me out, in spite of the close quarters, my skin and eyes are unaffected by having it turned on. I also have to leave in on for shorter periods of time, it throws enough heat to get the chill from the air conditioning out very quickly, and I can turn it back off for a while, so I am using far less electricity. Would highly recommend this heater.

A good thing in every way! Quiet, fast, sits with stability, a nice weight and size.
