Amazon.com Review
Improving on the cumbersome design of oil-filled heaters, Bionaire's convection console heater delivers speedy heat and safe, convenient operation. Though virtually silent in use, the heater kicks out noticeable heat in mere minutes and maintains heat levels consistently. Its simple control panel features two power settings--500 and 1500 watts--and a widely adjustable thermostat. Stay-cool grilles and housing keeps hands safe, while a triple-level automatic shut-off system prevents overheating. The heater comes with casters and a pull handle, making its lightweight 14-pound design easy to maneuver. An indicator light illuminates when the heater is running, and a built-in cubby keeps the three-prong power cord stashed and tidy. Measuring 5-1/2 by 21-3/4 at the top, the heater stands 24-7/8 inches high. Its caster housings are 8-3/4 inches wide. --Emily Bedard

finally a room heater that does just that. no bonus noise, weight or danger
My new home came with central heating. I loved the convenience, but wanted a heater for the bedroom so I didn't have to heat the entire home through the night, when it was only one room we needed heat in. There began my quest for a portable electric heater!

My first try was a Bionaire Digital Tower Ceramic Heater. It went right back to the store the moment I realized how powerful (read : noisy) the fan inside was. It did do a decent job warming up the room though.

I knew I'd like something quiet. Real quiet. My next try was an Oil Filled Radiator. It was much quieter - just low clicking sounds (probably from the metal or oil expanding?) - but failed to impress on heating. It took almost an hour to make a significant difference to a cold room (12x14) - and barely kept the temperature up through the night with the thermostat dialled up. When in use - the surface turned really hot - and I worried about someone stepping into it in the middle of the night - or my cat scalding herself while trying to kill it :)

I decided to try the Bionaire BH3900 - it promised swifter heating and a cool surface. My wife and me were delighted! It warms the room up much swifter than the oil filled radiator and is absolutely silent! The heat mostly escapes out the top - and there isn't a lot of heat radiated to the sides. The grille on the side makes this look more elegant than the radiators - and just gets luke warm even when this has been running all night. And while my cat has sniffed at the grille (when on) - she hasn't been tempted into attacking it yet.

This was twice the price of the other options we looked at - but were sold on it the first night we tried using it. I wish the thermostat were digital (knob takes some tweaking to find your sweet spot) - but our quest for a heater has ended.

PS. Bought it off the Bionaire website with a 10% off, free shipping, no tax for 89.99.

Great Heater for an enclosed room...
This heater really punches out some serious heat and is EXTREMELY quiet. We have a 3 year old daughter and I felt it was completely safe as none of the part got hot.. they were very warm but not warm enought to burn skin. We ultimately ended up returning this heater but only becuase the room we had it in was our great room and I think it was just to big and open fo rhte heater to make a difference. But if you have a smaller to average room this is a great heater to get!

A great little heater !
We bought one after reading the reviews and tried it in our large basement which is always a few degrees cooler then the rest of the house. After having it on for an hour the basement felt wonderful. no degrees of difference. We were shocked that this little heater can put out so much heat. No longer using blankets when watching T.V in the basement. I am going to get one more in case they stop making this product. It is light weight and has a handle on one end to easly roll it where you need it... also it is wonderful if you have small kids around it. The grill is warm yet not hot enough to burn your hand. A great product!
Well worth the money!!!
