This heater is really Cool. There is some assembly but it was very simple and it included the wrench to tighten the bolts, you'll need a Straight and Phillips screw driver though. I'm using mine with a hose to run off of a 20 lb. LP cylinder. It's very likely I'll be getting another one for around the campsite on cool nights.

nice

The packaging was acceptable as were the quality of the parts. Took about a half hour to carefully put it together. I like the look of it and it seems to fit our needs for our small 6x10 upper level of the deck, I set it on a small metal outdoor table (like a night stand in wrought iron), as it seemed to dominate our 3X5 foot table.....but I also got one with no gas flowing through the regulator. I contacted the manufacturer and they got back to me promptly and reminded me to hold down the pilot knob longer than is explained in the manual and this did help purge air out of the system and get the pilot light to come one. Unfortunately it did not start up the burner. When I recontacted them, they were again prompt and offered to send me a new one. I will see how it goes, but I upgraded my rating from one to three stars for standing behind their product. I will keep updating as I try to get a working one. UPDATE: The new one arrived and this one works well. As I assembled it I was more impressed than I remembered with the quality of the stainless steel and its weight. It heats a small six foot circle area nicely and, more importantly doesn't take over our deck or pose the fire hazard that a larger one would. So I give them a full five stars now. I added a Mr. Heater 75,000 BTU 12-Foot Propane Hose Assembly #F273702 which connects easily to this unit and allows it to run off the usual large propane tank that I use for my gas grill (and that larger deck heater use) instead of using those small camping propane tanks. The other benefits are that I can then keep the large tank under the deck and out of sight, save money on propane, and not worry about changing the tank very often. The base of the unit has a notch that allows for the line. I ended up using a short table next to my chair about two feet high as it sets the heater right at my head height when sitting, but with the extra propane hose length I can also pull it up onto our dining table for more people.

This is my second heater. Excellent product

Works nicely in my outdoor sunroom during the winter.

Bought this heater to help stay warm outside of my RV while enjoying an evening cigar. It works as advertised.

this thing is awsome

Outstanding in our screened-in porch. Performance improved by using 20lb. Propane tank and 8' connector hose

We love it!!!

Works great!!!
