Customer Reviews of Bionaire BCH4138-U Digital Triple Ceramic Heater with Galileo
Customer Rating: Summary: Should have headed the negative reviews Comment: Not very impressed with this heater. When I first got it, it sat there, just humming, with a burning plastic smell. I carefully took it apart and found that the fan was not attached to the motor in the back. There is no way it came off during shipment because it seats in very firmly, making it an easy permanent fix. Most likely it was never attached from the factory - poor quality control. The plastic casing itself is very brittle, with one edge chipping while I was putting it back together. Now that its finally working, I was disappointed to hear how loud it is. Definitely the loudest electric heater I've ever heard. I think this is due to the design, resulting in turbulent air flow within the unit. As a positive though, this thing pours out an impressive amount of heat for its size. In addition, the thermostat is a really nice feature that seems to work well. Customer Rating: Summary: didn't work Comment: The unit I received shuts off unexpectedly when set on 'auto' and has an odd buzzing sound. I'm returning mine. Customer Rating: Summary: It's a 5 star - WHEN IT WORKS! Comment: Our very first order of this heater in 2005 worked great for 2 years, before it stopped working all together. I live in San Francisco where it's very cold all year long and our house has no insulation, so this heater was used often in the baby's room. So I can understand why it would break after 2 years of daily use. But it was perfect because I set the thermostat at 68 degrees and never had to worry about the baby being cold. I don't know if the quality has just deteriorated since my 2005 purchase, because I purchased another one in 2007, it worked for 2 months, then it stopped. I purchased another one in April 2008, and it didn't work at all. I sent it back to amazon to get a replacement, and that replacement had broken parts and was rattling inside the heater. I am awaiting the 3rd and final replacement, because if this 3rd one doesn't work, then I am going to find another heater. However, I cannot find out with a thermostat that works accurately. So this heater, if you get one that works, is GREAT, but it seems like the quality has gotten worse in the last 3 years. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Product Comment: this is the only moderately priced heater I know of the has a remote temperature sensor and control. This is the second one I have purchased. Customer Rating: Summary: needs more fan power Comment: Nice heater with good features. The thermostat and timer featurea work well. The problem is that the heat comes out of the three sided front, and the air is drawn in through a 4 inch diameter hole in the back. The fan does not push the air out into the room. Good for a small room like a bathroom, but not for a lager application. More Reviews BNRBCH4138U Galileo Digital Triple Ceramic Heater, Gray, 10-3/4w x 8-7/8d x 10h Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers Added features such as ice making and drinks dispensers can all add to the appeal of certain models. Ice making is an option on many American style fridge-freezers, sometimes available without opening the door, as are cold water dispensers. Zoned models offer several storage areas, all at different temperatures, designed to keep a variety of foods fresh for longer. Most manufacturers now offer adjustable shelf heights and storage units which simplify food storage. Choosing Appliance -> Dishwasher Choose a dishwasher with sturdy compression springs in the door. Also look for tough, lightweight nylon or graphite racks with cushioned tips that protect glassware and cookware. Weimer recommends choosing a model with a rack design that provides the largest, most flexible interior space and is configured for your belongings, including odd-shaped pieces.
