What's great about it: Timer
What's not so great: Oil takes a while to heat up.
Overall love this heater, although I wish it would heat faster but it is an oil heater. The timer on it is great so you don't have to remember to turn it on to start heating the bedroom/room you have it in. By the time you go to bed the room is nice and toasty warm.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Compact, small, very quiet
What's not so great: Smell, time it takes to warm, heating radius
Ok so this thing has a few pros and cons. The pros are that it is very small and the thing makes virtually no noise. Thats about where it stops, I bought this to heater for my living room because of poor ventilation.
The first thing is that its got this dial on it and it has this knob for setting a heating schedule, this makes it probably one of the most complicated heaters I've seen. Secondly, out of my living room it probably warms about a 5' by 5' space you gotta be right near it if you have a larger room. 3rd thing is that it takes almost an hour before its hot enough to tell that its on. The last thing is that it uses some kind of oil which it says you don't have to refill however it makes the room smell like fumes of some kind. I'm not comfortable with the smell of an unidentified oil filling my living room. So to sum this all up I'm gonna be returning mine today. Which reminds me, it is heavy. This is part of the reason I purchased it I figured more weight more power, better product, WRONG Now I'm guessing the weight is because of the oil.

What's great about it: Small size. Low fire hazard for a heater. Can run cycles.
What's not so great: One of mine only lasted 3 years :(
It's small. Has a timer so you can start/stop whenever you want--and make multiple run cycles. Makes no noise except for a small "tick" when the thermostat turns it on or off. It's oil filled so it doesn't get that hot--you'll never be on the evening news because somebody put a something flammable on it. It is small, and looks kind of stylish. I have 2 of these and use them under some big windows in my house where there are cold spots. Use them constantly 5 months out of the year. One died after 3 years. After looking at all the space heaters, I'm off to Best Buy to get the same one again.

What's great about it: Size, Ease of use on temperature, and Price
What's not so great: 24hr. dial is complicated but don't need it anyways.
I was in the market for a heater to replace a Vornado fan heater that only lasted one winter which I would not recommend, I also have a Bionaire heater that I've had for 4 years and still working but its a directional heater that can only cover a small room size and would recommend, so I needed something bigger and better which reading reviews online plus talking to an older gentle man which told me he had a DeLonghi radiator heater for many years kind of convince me to purchase this brand/unit. Not knowing much of radiator heaters other then replacing the oil inside and being used to heating element fan heaters and dish heaters I wasn't sure how it would perform, But let me tell you that I've had this heater for 2 winters now and still works fine, it uses oil which you don't have to refill unlike those old radiator heaters. It covers my apartment living room at a comfortable temperature and my living room gets pretty cold during winter since the insulation is bad and windows are also very thin but the heater is keeping the cold out.
Features are pretty nice on this radiator heater, it has 3 levels of drawing power for heating min,med, and max. I recommend to use the switches carefully or it will shut off so do one at a time specially if using max because it will draw to much power at once. It also has a 24hr timer which I can't figure out yet I'll have to read the manuel for that feature and it has 1-6 for temperature control.
I recommend this heater for anyone that needs a reliable heater that will be pulled out of a closet or garage during the cold season because it still working for me. The unit isn't that big and for the price you get more out of it then those fan heaters that cost about the same. Thanks DeLonghi for keeping me warm for 2 winters now and hope everyone gives this product a try this winter. Stay warm and happy holidays everyone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: works great no noise
What's not so great: slight oil burning scent first couple times used-gone now.
No noise! Didn't want a heater with a fan. This is completely quiet. It is very squat and stable so can't be knocked over by pets of kids. It has a timer (I haven't learned to use it yet) so you can program it to turn off after a certain length of time. It heats our large master bedroom when we close the door very quickly.
I would recommend this to a friend!
