Tools and Hardware Reviews of Mr. Heater MRHF273400 Buddy Portable LP Gas Heater
Customer Review: A hot topic
Summary: 5 Stars
After using the portable Mr Heater twice it has worked well. It was easy to set up, easy to light and gave off plenty of heat for our 8' x 26' rv trailer.Customer Review: About filters....
Summary: 4 Stars
The mention of filters that I saw was a recommedation for a TRAP, not a filter, as it was called. It is common in professionally installed propane appliances to have a trap. I haven't ever seen a trap used on a portable appliance. The trap is essentially a pipe "T" with a short section of pipe going down, terminated by a cap. The other side of the "T" goes up to the appliance.The trap allows chunks of debris fall into it; it is in no way a filter.Customer Review: Altitude problems
Summary: 1 Stars
The altitude where I live in Colorado is about 6300'. The heater works great in my garage, but if I take it camping, which is what I bought it for, it's worthless. I spent a couple of cold nights trying to keep it lit before I found out it won't work above 7000'.Customer Review: Amazon sent me a re-conditioned unit!
Summary: 1 Stars
Let me start by saying I LOVE Amazon. They've treated me very well and saved me a bundle of money over the years.
But.... this time I'm angry. I bought this item last week and Amazon sent me a re-conditioned unit with a 90 day warranty (instead of one year) without telling me. Nowhere on the item description on the Amazon web site does it say that they're selling re-conditioned units.
I haven't tried out the heater yet (other than to make sure that it works) so I don't have an opinion on the quality of the item - I'm just upset with Amazon
Customer Review: At first, swell, but then...
Summary: 3 Stars
Delighted with the design of this unit. Took it to a freezing cold swap meet in a metal building. Worked great for three hours, then...pffft. Wouldn't relight. Then even the pilot wouldn't light. Luckily, the local Bi-mart swapped me straight across.
So...sudden failures are possible. Love the piezo lighter and compact, solid-on-the-floor design. Like the two heating levels. I'm playing music on a hillside on Sunday night, so I'm hoping there are not any more sudden failures.
