Wood Stove Fan, Fireplace Fan for Wood Burning Stove, Heat Powered fan, Wood Stove Accessories, Quiet Operation Circulating Warm Air, (Include Magnetic Thermometer) (5-Blade)

I have 2 of these sitting on top of my wood stove. As soon as the stove heats up even a little bit they start working. No batteries or cords. They just work using the heat from the wood stove. They really distribute the heat into the rest of the house. Really great purchase and it gives me peace of mind knowing I can have a warm house even if the power goes out for days. I bought them several years ago and they are still going strong. They are so good I will probably never have to replace them....

It's small but it pushes the heat out into the room so good we order another one hoping it will put even more heat out don't have to burn as much wood to get the warmth know that we use to we love it

This is a good solution for improving the heat distribution of heaters like the Mr. Heater Portable Buddy. Propane-fueled radiant heaters tend to lose a fair amount of heat to convection that just drifts upwards (indoors) or gets blown away by the wind (outdoors), which makes them kind of inefficient. This fan allows that otherwise lost heat to conduct through the aluminum extrusion, which creates a temperature gradient that powers the fan, which draws the heat across the extrusion towards you - or at least into the room in such a way that it distributes much more evenly, rather than drifting upwards towards the ceiling above your head, where it doesn't do much good. Search YouTube for some examples of people attaching these stove fans to Mr. Heater Buddy models. It's easy to do with a bit of wire, twist ties, plastic ties, or something like that. It makes a noticeable difference to the amount of useful heat you get out a given amount of propane. Since this fan only has one moving part, it should basically last forever, and it should pay for itself eventually in saved gas while it keeps you more comfortable all the while. Only minor glitch was that the "motor" shaft was very slightly bent on one of the two I bought. It didn't seem to affect functionality at all - the blades still spun freely - but I didn't want it to create any noise or uneven wear over time, so I used pliers to coax it back into alignment. It was a 15-second fix and seems good as new. It's packaged very well but is perhaps a little overly snug, which might have just torqued the fan blades a bit when it was inserted at the factory.

It moves air just fine. I have noticed how the heat does get distributed more evenly now with this fan moving the heat around. These products have always seemed pricey for what they do, yet it not only does not require electricity, but it also shuts itself off as the temperature drops (unlike the box fan I use to use, but now I don't wake up in the morning with a fan blowing cold air around). I am glad I have this heat powered fan now. If you hold a lit match / flame up in the area of the fan, you can definitely see how the fan IS moving enough air to blow out the flame when it gets around to the front of the fan. I agree with some other reviewers that it is difficult to "feel" the air moving - but I think this is because you're feeling the heat rise up directly from the top of the stove and it does not feel like the fan is BLOWING (but it is). I only gave it 4 out of 5 stars because of the auto protection device on the bottom of my fan unit does not lift the base of the unit up when it is sitting on an over temp stove top. The supplied magnetic thermometer showed that the stove was up over the 650-degree F upper safe operating limit, and I did not notice any "movement" or lifting of the front of the base of the fan from the stove top. Even as I lifted the fan unit off the hot stove top to allow it to cool off, I could see that the piece of metal that is designed to lift the base of the fan up and away from the stove top was still flat against the base of the fan. My stove typically runs too hot for this fan, so I set an old camp cooking pan upside down on the stove and then set the fan on top of the pan, so the fan does not get ALL the heat and damage the thermal sensor or the electrical wiring. The fan will start up and works great, even when it is sitting on top of a pan. Overall - I like it, I like it a lot.

This little fan at first seemed great. I already have an ecofan that I just wanted a second to have one pushing heat one way and one pushing the other. It turned on faster than the ecofan and seemed to push alot of heat for a little fan. Was thrilled because the price was great... Give it about 15 more minutes to get to full speed, and it started vibrating which I could hear. 10 more minutes pass and I realize it is facing the complete opposite direction from how I had positioned it, and was approaching the edge of my stove. I obviously removed the fan from the stove and moved it to a cool location, upon inspection one blade was severely bent. Gave them the benefit of the doubt, and returned for another fan assuming I was just unlucky and got a defective one. The second one arrives and first thing I do is check the blades, all appeared to be the same distance from the base. No bent blades. Once again set it on my stove and it fires up quick and I can feel it moving heat well. 30 minutes later I look over and it's on the edge of my stove, and facing the wrong direction again. So I start to investigate and it appeared the pin in the center that the blades spin on was bent. If I would have left this overnight it likely would have fallen off of the stove and potentially caught my house on fire. So long story short has potential to be a great buy, but as far as my experience has shown me, this product is not safe and once adjustments are made this could be a great product.

We heat with wood and have a gas-fired central furnace for back-up, we get some drafts in the living room, looking to spread more of the heat output, to save on energy costs, decided to invest in this machine. it has been doing a great job over the past couple of weeks. this little fan is packed with power ! It spins faster than other fans we've had, and it circulates the air without creating drafts. I've spent 3 times as much on fans that don't work nearly as well in the past, it’s also amazingly quiet. Solid build, i’m sure we will get many more years of use out of this. It Has already paid for itself! Overall extremely happy with this purchase!

This product is great and the company is fantastic. I bought this fan and it worked great until it started making a slight grinding sound and the fan slowed down significantly. I contacted the seller and they sent me a new one. You don't find many companies that will do this. The fan will move enough air to blow out a lit lighter therefore moves heat. Glad I bought this fan!

Works well when it works. Then it loosened up and stopped working. Ive had to take it apart 3 times for retightening. The last time I did it. It up and stopped working all together. I'll have to take it apart again to see if I can fix it, or just trash it.

Gute Ware, schnelle Lieferung

Pas besoin d'électricité, éfficace, améliore la chaleur de beaucoup.

Satisfaite du ventilateur il fonctionne bien la chaleur se répartit plus vite dans la piece et il est silencieux. Je suis contente de mon achat

Perfetta qualità prezzo ottima

Very good stove fan. I've already got 2 other stove fans, bought from 'German Discounter' stores in UK. While these work fine, the difference between the others and this new one is notable. One is a 2 blade machine, the other a dual fan, each with 3 blades. Pretty obvious on visual comparison - this fan has 5 large blades and hence moves a lot more air, increasing the hot air circulation in the room. It has made a noticeable difference to the room temperature, It is silent in operation. A good purchase, and I can recommend it.
