Resto 134oz Water Kettle Review

Resto 134oz Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the highest-quality kettle I have seen on the market. Thick solid surgical stainless steel, impressive encapsulated bottom for induction cooking (personally, I use it on a gas stove). Manufactured -- the HARD WAY -- out of a single piece of steel, no seams. The spout is welded to the body, then machined/polished smooth so it looks of a single piece with the rest of the kettle. Magnificent workmanship.
You get a 30-year warranty for home use (10 for commercial use). I don't know what such a warranty actually means... but for me it certainly means this will probably be the only piece of cookware that'll be fit to be passed on to the next generations as a treasured heirloom. It's that good.

Before I bought this plug I thought it was kind of strange that other people either loved it or said it didn't work. I see now why that is. If you have a fireplace that has a damper handle sticking down into the fireplace below the damper (like mine) you do not want this plug because it wont work. The handle will get in the way. Fortunately, i bought it from Home depot so i was able to return it.
The package says "can be used in any fireplace" but it is not possible for it to seal if you have a damper handle in the way. I am going to try the different type of chimney balloon that goes in above the damper, or I might just stuff the damper with fiberglass.

Heat Surge Fireplace with Amish Made Mantle Oak Review

Heat Surge Fireplace with Amish Made Mantle Oak
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought two of these and spent almost $700 and I am VERY DISSAPOINTED with their performance. You can't even feel the heat unless you are about a foot away from the unit. I live in California where it doesn't really get that cold in the winter but I was interested in saving money on my heating bill and this thing won't even heat my bedroom. The mantle is oak plywood, not solid oak as advertised. The only good thing about them is that they look nice. The Amish are being used as a marketing tool to sell these fireplaces. All of the parts come from China and are assembled by Amish in Ohio, so don't expect good Amish craftsmanship because you won't get it with a Heat Surge Electric Fireplace.

Kero World KW-24G 23,000-BTU Indoor Portable Convection Kerosene Heater Review

Kero World KW-24G 23,000-BTU Indoor Portable Convection Kerosene Heater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We live in a 3rd story condo, and are planning a New Years party. We just redesigned our patio built benches, made cushions, and I wanted the patio to be comfortable to sit on while outside. Our patio is open to the east, and also open in the nook to the north. So I needed something that was going to produce enough heat to keep the patio warm. We tried two other heaters (electric) before buying this one. They were horrible!
I bought mine at home depot, and they have the fuel there. I think I have a different model (DuraHeat Convection Kerosene Heater Model DH2304), but it is the same amount of BTU's and the the same design, just looks a little different. This heater is amazing...we filled up half the tank, and have used it the last few nights to test it out. It heats up the whole area and keeps the heat coming! I plan on putting a sheet up in the nook using an expandable rod, (don't worry the sheet won't hang near the heater) I just want to try to block some of the cold air from coming in! A lot of heat comes out of the top, so I am hoping it will keep more of the heat in the patio area!
If you are looking for a great patio heater, this is the one to buy! Especially if you live in a condo! I am pretty sure we are not allowed to have propane, plus who wants a 20lb propane tank hanging around! This heater is ok'd for indoor, and if we ever loose our heat, we won't be cold! As long as we have kerosene!
There are instructions for the care of this heater, and I suggest you read them. There is important information about dry burning and cleaning the wick etc. They stress the importance of these things to keep your heater working properly! I am new to this (Giant Lantern) but the instructions are very detailed and easy to understand! Good luck!

The Kero World portable indoor kerosene heater is great for heating small to medium indoor spaces (up to 900 square feet). Matchless ignition makes this a convenient source of instant heat--without having to plug it in, either. The built-in 1.9-gallon tank gives you up to 12 hours of heat. The manufacturer recommends using only clean kerosene. Two-year warranty.--Josh Dettweiler

Five Tips for Buying a HeaterChoosing a space heater is a matter of sifting through a bewildering array of types, power ratings, and fuel sources. Let's break it down a little to make the process easier.

What are the different types of space heaters?
Radiant heaters emit infrared radiation that directly warms the objects in front of the heaters (rather than the surrounding air). If you only need heat by a desk or in a small section of a room, a radiant heater is quiet and will use very little power.
Forced-air heaters use a fan to blow air that has been warmed by metal or ceramic heating elements. A forced-air heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small- to medium-sized room, but can be noisy.
Convection heaters draw cold air from the floor; the air is warmed by heating coils and emitted from the top of the heater. A convection heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small- to medium-sized room, but also can be noisy.
Radiators work by heating oil enclosed in a reservoir, gradually heating the surrounding air. If heating speed isn't an issue, you might want to opt for a radiator. These are extremely quiet and effective--perfect for bedrooms.


Should I buy an electric or a combustion model?If you want a heater that will be available in emergencies, or that can heat areas larger than a single room, choose a "combustion" model--one that is powered by a gas or fuel like propane, kerosene, natural gas, or diesel. Which fuel type you choose depends largely on convenience and local availability. For example, diesel would be appropriate for a heater you take with you on long car trips.

How powerful a heater do I need?Heaters are rated by BTU, which stands for British Thermal Unit (the amount of heat needed to heat one pound of water by 1 degree F). To find out how many BTU you need:
Calculate the volume of the space to be heated by multiplying square footage by height.
Multiply that number by 4 if your insulation is poor, 3 if it's average, or 2 if it's good.
The resulting number is a ballpark figure for how many BTU you'll need.
Do space heaters cost a lot to operate? As a general rule, electric space heaters are more expensive to use than combustion models. To ensure energy efficiency, a thermostat is a must-have feature for any heater. For radiant heaters, models with a 360 degree heating surface can heat larger spaces. If you need a forced-air heater, models with ceramic elements tend to be more efficient.

Are space heaters a fire hazard?Space heaters are implicated in about 25,000 residential fires every year. To ensure proper safety, always follow the manufacturer's usage instructions and fill out the warranty card to receive informational updates from the manufacturer. Also, look for extra safety features such as an automatic shutoff switch that can shut down the unit if, for example, it gets upended. In addition, choose a model where the heating element is adequately enclosed within the unit.

CobraCo FB6200 Cast Iron Fireplace with Cover Review

CobraCo FB6200 Cast Iron Fireplace with Cover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I do like the design and size. It's a bit smaller then my last one but that's okay. Anything made in China is typically crap, but for a firepit, no big deal. The holes for the tubular frame that the base sits into did not line up, forcing me to modify it so they line up properly to use the screws provided. The powder coating paint they use on the screen is bare minimal. After one rainfall and forgetting to put the cover back on, it started showing rust already. So I HIGHLY suggest using the cover! Speaking of which, the cover is really an over glorified double lined plastic garbage bag, so always be careful sliding it over the pit, it rips easily! The base itself is heavy to be sure, so it won't rust for years, being cast iron and all. The other thing I'm not crazy about is cleaning out the ashes. There is triangular rods that cover the intake air holes at the base of the cast iron that are welded on..........well.........some of them are welded.....lol. They get in the way of using anything flat, like a dustpan, to scoop up the ashes and such. So if you're not anal like I am, you'll always have some ashes left in it. It is heavy to be sure. Very awkward for one person to move, if you need to. We move ours out of the way when not in use, so I built a dolly with wheels for it, making it much easier. All in all, it's.........okay.
