Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Vornado DVTH Digital Vortex Heater EH1-0028-06
Customer Review: Does what it should
Summary: 5 Stars
I was concerned because of some of the older reviews about build quality and other issues with this heater, but I decided to try it anyway. With LNG prices set to rise anywhere from 25% to 35% this winter, this heater is a smart investment.
We live in an old (1898) condo with single-pane glass, 11' ceilings, and no insulation in the exterior walls. This little heater does a very good job at actually heating a room. My wife no longer has to hover over a space heater, this thing actually brings the whole room up to temperature.
It did buzz a little initially when I first plugged it in. It sounded like bearing noise. I think part of the problem was that it was shipped just in its retail box which has zero packing material. After a few days of running the buzz has disappeared, and the unit is quieter than our central heat coming out of a register.
Customer Review: If only it lasted longer...
Summary: 2 Stars
This was the perfect heater for our baby's room until it broke. It only lasted one season. According to many other reviews, that seems to be the way these things work. I was about to go out and buy another but after reading all these reviews, I don't plan on spending $60-80 each winter to repace it. I would pay a bit more for this heater if they could get it to last longer than a year. But until this company produces a higher quality product, I won't be buying from them again.Customer Review: Loud and unreliable

I've owned this Vornado model for about a year and a half. I've already had to return it once because the on/off switch stopped functioning (not damaged, just stopped working). Paid Vornado $45 for the repair.
Recently, the fan has started getting much louder to where I really can't run it at night and still sleep. I'm either looking at another $45 repair or tossing it and buying a new heater. If I do replace, it likely won't be with another Vornado.

Good product.. Very quiet.. If you are looking for just raw heating this product is not the best. Doesn't blow a ton of heat out. I have bought space heaters for 20 bucks that blow more raw heat at the same wattage. It can hold the temp in a normal sized bedroom after a few hours of operation. Its strength is the low noise. Drawback is there is no timer so if you fall asleep while its on you will use electricity all night..Customer Review: VORNADO SPACE HEATER

AS PREVIOUSLY NOTED, THERE IS AN ODOR WHEN FIRST TURNING THE UNIT ON, BUT IS NO WORSE THAN THE ODOR FROM OUR STEAM RADIATORS WHEN THEY FIRST GET HOT. IT REALLY HEATS UP A ROOM QUICKLY AND IS VERY QUIET! VERY GLAD WE GOT IT, WILL GET ANOTHER ONE IF HEATING BILLS GET TOO MUCH HIGHER.
