Velocity HD Garage Space Heater

Heats my garage just enough to take the chill out of the air - comfortable for working. Bought a second one for my detached shop.

Very disappointed, Bought this heater because my potable space heater (17years) old, was loosing its blowing power. Very disappointed, my old one (17 yeas old) still blows more then this one. Very disappointed hope a lot of people don't buy this If you do be prepared to be let down. would NOT recommend this for any use.

I've owned Vornado heaters for years, my 21-year old model is still doing a great job in my bedroom after all these years. These units do not run or heat like infrared space heaters. They gently circulate air at a few degrees above the room temperature to slowly and steadily increase the room's temperature. I own a Velocity 5 as well, and it works great in my TV room. This "workshop" version is based on the same principle, but the velocity of air is three or four times faster than my other units and it heated my basement workshop (usually the coldest room in the house) like a charm last night. Due to the faster air flow it makes more noise than my other two, but its not an issue in a shop environment. I'll be trying it tonight in my uninsulated two car garage workshop (expected low of 19 degrees this evening) to see how it does there, but I'm confident it will do fine. I do wish that it had a thermostat feature as an alternative to just running continuously all the time, but in the cold of the garage it would probably run full time anyway. I don't expect the garage to be 75°, I find that it's easy to work in mid 50's to lower 60's temperatures in the shop as opposed to 35 or 40 degrees. Great products and customer service in my opinion, next time I need one, I'll buy Vornado.

I love the Vornado brand and products, I don't think I would purchase a different brand when it comes to fans. I own both space heater fans, but I think that this one needs to be pumped up a notch to make a clear difference between one and the other in efficiency and power. I used this one to heat up a food truck while I worked inside and it took a long time to warm up the space. I think it needs both, more rpm's and a hotter coil.

Bought this a month ago right in the middle for satisfaction
