STAR PATIOOutdoor Freestanding Electric Patio Heater, Tabletop heater, Infrared Heater, Hammered Bronze Finished, Portable Heater suitable as a Balcony Heater, 1566-CT

This affordable patio heater seems to have dialed in the right halogen heating element to put out a lot of heat compared to light. We had one in the past like this, but it broke after 3 years. Then we got another one that was BRIGHT WHITE but put out very little heat. Worthless. We garage sold it. Now this one is like our first one, but much less expensive. Looks are not bad. Seems well made. Keeps 2 people warm if sitting nearby.

This throws out plenty of heat and light. It’s radiant heat, so don’t expect a blower though. Three people I know have now bought one, too. Good buy!

It’s a very nice looking lamp. However, it does not put off a lot of heat unless you were directly underneath it.

Warms you when. It’s close but not as well as a propane unit. Too soon to tell if it’s less expensive to operate until I get the electric bill. Got to admit that it now costs a lot to refill my propane tanks

I bought one for my deck, the guts of the light were fried after 3months of use. Had to get another it works so well but hoping the wires don’t catch fire on this one.

Don't expect this heater to give off enough heat to warm an entire patio area, but it is great for people sitting around a patio table. Gives off a really nice orange glowing light as well and is really a good looking patio heater. Very easy to assemble with a wide flat heavy base. Pull chain is a light string which I am hoping remains intact. Chain would have been nice, but perhaps would have gotten too hot below heating element. Really nice not having to deal with propane as well. Very happy with my purchase.

Doesn’t heat as big an area as I hoped. But still good for the out door dining table

Nice heat output but short life on the bulb which they don't sell
