Worst Purchase of My Life
By J. DeWitz
Do not even consider buying this heater. It is terrible in so many ways. Online, this product looks to be sleek and modern looking, but when it arrived it looks like a hunk of tin from the 1970's. Second, the triple combo of purifier, humidifier, and heater sound good on paper but it was unable to handle the requests digitally. The purifier worked well, but the heater had a mind of its own. The digital thermostat was well below the actual temperature in the room, 5-8 degrees in fact. Then it would shut off at random times. The remote would not register the commands and had to be connected to the unit for it to work. When working the unit would make these sounds that could only be related to pennies in a dryer. Tried using it when sleeping, awful. If I had to buy this heater, I honestly would not pay more than $30 for it. Stay away; there is a reason why it is hard to find a 3-in-1 unit, maybe because it just isn't possible...

WORKS WELL FOR ME
By Dan
Got the 1500 model 26 OCT 2011. I have to read the instruction to make this work properly and it did. The quality is much better than my Holmes Quartz heater, infact I'll give it three & three-quarter stars for built quality. The heat is very good. I more than likely NOT gonna use this unit as a standalone Air Purifier and or Humidifier coz I have a standalone SHARP HEPA purifier and Humidifier that are "Library Quiet" that emits less than 30 Decibels fan noise. Set the red core 1500 on mid-size room at 78 Degrees F - you might able to hear a very low fan hiss. Good thing that the fan speed adjust automatically as the temp is met. Time to retire my noisy Holmes Quartz Heater. Also I thought of the Amish fireplace look alike heaters, but I prefer the size of the Redcore 1500, its small enough and easy to move in any room in my house unlike those bulky amish heaters. Had I received a defective unit, I would have written something negative as well, fortunately I got a good working unit that I was able to test myself, I'll recommend it to friends, and will probably get a second unit.

Could be good but...
By G. Robinson
An OK if overly complicated unit with usability issues. REVISED
I doubt that the first reviewer ever saw one, unless it was a different model or defective.

The Good:
Reasonably effective heater.
Fully adjustable thermostat.
Displays room temp +/-2 degrees accuracy.
Ultrasonic Humidifier adds about 3 to 4 percent humidity to a large room.
Air purifier seems to work well. REVISED see below
Controls are proximity not touch and should last.
Large fancy LCD display easy to read.

The bad:
Any momentary power glitch resets the unit to off. Not suitable for unattended operation as a result.
Controls are complicated and not as well documented as they could be.
The humidifier really wants distilled water. REVISED running one batch of tap water left it operating intermittently.
The ultrasonic humidifier ejects a plume of water vapor that can dampen stuff.
The controls are poorly marked and have odd interactions.
The controls are not illuminated so often hard to see
Air purifier is ineffective for pollen.

The ugly:
Because of the humidifier really needs to be elevated.
Controls are fussy, .
To use the air purifier you need to set the temperature then the offset time.
Timer is time to start not to turn off, It would be easy to have both.
Fan and humidifier aren't loud but not especially quiet.
Distilled water makes it expensive to operate.

Overall works so so but is unnecessarily fussy and suffers from phony reviews. As well as being relatively expensive.
