Tools and Hardware Reviews of Lasko 5365 30-Inch Digital Space-Saving Ceramic Pedestal Heater with Remote Control
Customer Review: Beware - Lasko Product Quality
Summary: 1 Stars
I received two of these products from Amazon both of which had broken pieces, scratched & dents. I do not believe this was the result of poor packaging for shipment. I attempted to contact Lasko customer service via e-mail and never received a reply. Beware of products from this company as I believe they have a serious quality problem.Customer Review: Chemical smell, my $12 heater works better
Summary: 1 Stars
Ugh.
I've had this for a couple of days and just finished packing it up to return to Target.
It may be common to all ceramic heaters, but this thing has an awful chemical smell that's irritating my throat. I was at a friend's house last night, and his Lasko ceramic heater had the same smell.
For all the fancy buttons, pedestal and oscillation, it doesn't do a very good job of warming. I pulled the little 1500 watt, $12.95 heater out of my bathroom and put it in the living room where the Lasko had been. It does a better job of taking the chill out of the air!
Customer Review: Christmas Gift
Summary: 5 Stars
I was pleasantly surprised with this product. It was a gift to our daughter because she has a basement family room that is pretty chilly. She loves it, especially with the remote and oscillating? features. Thanks so much.Customer Review: DANGEROUS!
Summary: 2 Stars
This heater would get 5 stars if not for a major safety flaw which could be deadly to the elderly or small children. If you press the power button the heater turns on high and will continue to heat until the room reaches 90 degrees. Even if you had last used the heater in the auto mode say at 68 degrees, if you turn it on and don't adjust the temperature it resorts to it's highest setting and keeps heating until it reaches it's maximum temperature of 90 degrees! Who would ever want to heat a room to 90 degrees anyway?Customer Review: Decent but DEAD in less than a year
Summary: 2 Stars
I got the Lasko 6350 at Tar-jay back in January (around $50). Despite short-comings like beeping loudly at every button push, lack of a fan-only option, and an inconsistent thermostat, I was overall pretty content with its operation.
I used it moderately to keep my bedroom comfortable from January through May or so, then gave it an extended summer vacation. Brought it back on the scene around early October. It was working fine for a day or two, then just refused to turn on. When I plug it in the little red power light still comes on, but it doesn't beep anymore. No buttons on the unit or remote get any kind of response. It is basically in a vegetative state.
I have to add - I thought the stand would be a good idea since my bed is pretty high. I wasn't thinking about the fact that the heat is going to rise anyway, and having the heat start about a foot off the ground makes it more difficult than it should be to warm your feet if you're sitting or standing. I just ordered a different tower heater that does not have a stand and does have a fan-only option for when you just want some circulation and/or white noise.
