DR. INFRARED HEATER Portable Infrared Indoor and Outdoor Space Heater for Patio, Garage, Commercial & Residential With Remote Control, Without Thermostat, Black

This infrared heater is the best I've ever had. If anyone is wondering, yes, this can be used indoors. It has a stand which lets it be used vertically, with a safety "kill switch" if it is tipped over. It does not make any noise. It does not produce any fumes or odors. Because it is a vertical heater, it doesn't take up much floor space. Best of all, it is incredibly efficient. This thing seems to put out more heat at the lowest setting (900 watts) than other space heaters put out while running full blast at 1500 watts. It is "radiant" heat - there is no fan. It takes a while, but this thing WILL warm a fair sized room. We used it to keep a 12x14 room warm when our furnace went out during subzero temperatures. Sitting in front of it feels like sitting in warm sunshine or in front of a cozy campfire. Great heater!

Most people will want to buy this to heat their patio or deck. It mounts to the wall but also could be used on a stand if desired. To be clear, I did not buy 2 of these to heat a patio or deck but to heat 2 outdoor kennels for my German Shepherd Dogs, which I keep outside until it is time for bed when I bring them in the house. Regardless of the brand, no heater of this type is going to work that well whether mounted on a wall or self standing in an open area if it is windy. That is just the way it is. If you have a partially enclosed space which blocks the wind, you will do just fine. Now, the 2 kennels I have are open on all four sides but I have from fall to spring installed wind screens around all four sides of the kennels which are 10 ft x 10ft rectangles and 8 ft high. I have hung the heaters from the ceiling posts of the kennels and they work really well. Very easy to assemble. I have wall mounted heaters (different brand) on my deck and I can tell you that these would mount much easier than the ones I put on my deck. Piece of cake really. The package includes all of the hardware you need. I could mount these on a wall in less than 5 minutes. It took me less than that to hang them from the ceiling of the kennels. What about the remote? It works flawlessly and for my money it is essential, not just a convenience. I do not want to walk up to the heater and to turn it on or off if I do not have to. You can do it of course, but hitting the remote is far more convenient. It is easy to operate, self intuitive. You do not need instructions to operate it. As for heat, it has three levels. Level 1 is 900 watts, level 2 is 1200 watts and leverl 3 is 1500 watts. I find level 1 more than sufficient for temps in the 40s. I do not use it if 50 or above. (these are German Shepherd Dogs not people) That said, I am sure level one would be fine for the 50s for people. Level 2 I use for temps int he 30s. And Level 3 for the 20s and below. I have had the dogs out when the temperature was 5 degrees F and they did fine. Remember, these are infrared heaters, they heat objects not the air. So when the dogs stood or slept under the heaters, they were warm, despite the fact that air was quite cold. I warmly, no pun intended, recommend this product. It is first class in every respect.

November 2025 - I purchased 2 of these for my home garage gym. A lot of the reviews stated 1 wasn’t enough for a two car garage which is why i purchased two. They heat up quick and provide a decent radius of heat as well. I sat in the garage and watch Thursday night football comfortably with both on the L2 setting. My only small complaint is the mounting brackets seem a bit flimsy but overall still easy to install. The heaters are very quiet as well.

10/10. We used it today for the first time because sometimes we host gatherings in our garage. We live in CO and it’s January. It gets cold at night, it’s currently 27 degrees outside but it feels nice & toasty in the garage. This thing is small, lightweight, but MIGHTY. It was so easy to hang. We love it and are so happy we bought it. Our friends were so impressed.

I’ve been using it for a couple weeks now very easy to use and it does the job. You definitely do stay warm under it. I’m gonna buy another one for the other side of my shop now.

For an outdoor heater, this doesn’t really work well outdoors. You need to be right on top of it to feel much heat. I was reluctant to buy one of the standup propane heaters because the ceiling is a bit low and the porch is made of wood, but this unit just doesn’t cut it. It’s well made, installs easily and has held up well, but it just doesn’t produce enough heat. Better than nothing, I guess, but I wouldn’t call that a ringing endorsement.

If I'd know how infrared heaters work, I'd have bought one a long time ago, instead of the oil-filled radiator and resistance-type electric space heaters I have bought. I have no central heat and air in my house (long story), and I heat the bedroom and bathroom with space heaters. I've probably bought half a dozen, searching for the most cost-effective and efficient. This thing just absolutely blows them out of the water. It heats you, not the air. It is literally like sitting in the sun on a chilly day, when the sun warms you. I could not love this thing more. You do have to be at least 5-6 feet from it, and they want it mounted about 8 feet off the floor, because the unit itself gets hot enough to burn you.

The product is good and i was able to use it with a 15amps circuit! Heats up fast and if you are directly under it you do feel the heat (highly directional which i knew before buying). The instruction says mount the mounting bracket 10.8 inches apart - really? They must have included a template for easy installation. The youtube videos state flexible mounting but i believe this is a new model and looks like they have "changed" the mounting holes from "flexible" to "fixed" probably for strength. I mounted the unit to a 2x1 - 20 inch wide board and then screwed the 2x1 to studs 16 inches apart. I do recommend this product.

En invierno, mi casa es muy fría y los calefactores de piso son muy estorbosos y más que tengo 4 perros que lo puedan tirar o quemarse. Este quedó excelente en este lugar del desayunador y otro para mi recámara, la cual es grande y te techo muy alto, y aún así la calienta rapidísimo! El primero llegó con un faltante de piezas y no tuve problema para devolverlo. Me encanta comprar en Amazon pues nunca tengo problemas para devolver algo. Espero funcione muy bien por mucho tiempo, cada invierno. Calienta de inmediato y con su control remoto es muy fácil manejarlo y tiene temporizador Tiene 3 temperaturas. Lo recomiendo mucho !!

Purchased this for our new covered patio. There are many wall mounted infrared heaters but this was the only one I found with 3 heat settings instead of only a single (on/off) or high/low settings. This was important for us because at max level (1500w) you basically can't run anything else on the same circuit without overloading. Having a low/mid power setting lets us run some other electronics without worrying about the breaker tripping. Installation was straightforward if you're somewhat handy and is comfortable with drilling. The included anchors are adequate but it might help to have your own that matches your wall material. Performance wise I actually didn't find there to be a huge difference between the settings. Running on max feels only slightly warmer but it likely depends on how far you're sitting from it. If you're more than 7-8 feet away or if it's not angled towards you it's not going to do much. It's no propane heater and the heat output is really just enough to keep a small zone around it tolerable on a chilly morning or evening, so don't be expect a miniature sun or anything. Overall it's a solid product and the build quality feels rugged. For heating a small patio area where 3-4 people are seated it's perfect. Anything larger would likely be better served by a propane heater.

Excelente producto lo recomiendo ampliamente calienta super bien, llego en excelente estado, su empaque permitió que llegara sin defectos o daños

I looked at a variety of reviews of this brand before buying. The reviews were overall good. Interestingly the ones that were poor tended to be buyers who don't understand how infrared heaters work. QUALITY. The overall quality feels good right out of the box. It was well packed. Instructions were clear. INSTALLATION. I installed it myself in about 30 minutes. I'm 67 in moderate health so most people should be able to do it alone. However having a second person would be helpful and faster. I installed it upside down on purpose as I needed the cord on the left side of the heater. This makes the operation notes upside down but they will peel off. It leaves the small logo upside down but you don't notice. The display is upside down but it really doesn't matter as there are only 3 symbols. L1, L2 and L3. So upside down they look like 17, 27, E7. No problem. Make up some silly code to impress visitors. OPERATION. It works as described and expected. You can feel the increasing heat of each level. It is instant heat which is great. But the best comparison is still to a fire. You can stand around a campfire and your front is warm but your back is cold. This is the same thing. As long as you recognize that, you can position the heater to project heat where you want it. In my case, in the photograph, I want it on my main reading chair and on my small coffee table especially for morning. REMOTE. The remote works very well. Simple to use. EXTENSION CORD. My cord does reach the socket but is hanging as seen in the photo. I've added a 2 foot 12 gauge extension cord bought at a local big box store. About $12. This allows me to run the cord straight across and down so out of the way. Like the yellow line in the photo. I bought a 12 gauge just to be on the safe side for the amount of power being drawn. I suspect a 14 gauge would work and maybe even a 16 gauge. But for the small price difference, I'd rather go with the better cord. POWER DRAW. I've not had the heater long enough to determine its impact on my heating bill. I suspect it will be minor if for no reason then I only use it when I'm there and then turn it off. I likely won't use it in winter with minus temperatures but on those +8oC winter days, I'll likely use it. People have warned that you can only use that on one plug and I can see that would be the case. However I'm able to use the heater of the highest setting, use both lights on my IKEA lamp (seen in photo) and use a google home device all on that same plug. The LED lights and google home don't draw much power but it does mean I don't have to unplug or not use those items that were already there. FIRE POTENTIAL. My heater is not far enough down from the wood above as the requirements said. The 2x4 of the roof is only 11' above the heating element. I thought I might have to put a piece of metal in-between. I don't have to. The wood above gets warm to the touch but not really hot even after 3 hours of operation. You can hold the wood all day if you were so inclined. I did try a piece of metal just to see and the metal got far hotter than the wood so took the metal away. I was also afraid of the roof, with is a transparent panel, as it is only another 4" higher but you can't feel any heat on that panel. Also there is no heat on the wood behind the heater. The heater is well designed to thrown the heat outward. I think this will be perfect for my use. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that I've only used it so far on cool, early fall days. Once I get through some more seasons then I'll know how efficient it is in providing heat and not at an exorbitant cost. But I am very pleased. One disappointment: While I'd have preferred a Canadian or American product, I am disappointed to find the heater was made in China. The company says their products are engineered and designed in the USA, but don't announce as clearly where their products are made. Those of us who support our own domestic markets and don't want to support tyranny overseas, need to avoid buying from China and thus giving them the money to full their world agenda. If I knew this before I installed it, I would have sent it back.

me parece muy bueno, al momento no puedo hablar de la duración del artículo, pero espero funcione por mucho ya que lo utilizo para interior (doble altura) y no está expuesto a la intemperie. calienta muy bien
