Fire Sense Propane Table Top Patio Heater, Stainless Steel

Just got it seems to work fine so far

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.

I just finished installing this with my husband. It wasn't too complicated and it took us about 25 minutes total. It's actually bigger than I imagined (it looked almost handheld size to me in pictures). It's probably the size of a very thin 3 year old child wearing a large sun hat. lolI ordered a 4' hose adapter as other reviewers recommended so that I could use the 20 lb tank instead of the 1 lb. I had a little difficulty opening and closing the cover where the 1 lb tank goes. I think the heater's body was poorly designed in this aspect. Overall, I'm quite pleased with my purchase and haven't had any issues with it so far. I will update my review in the future if I start to have any problems with its functionability.

This heater is easy to put together and works real good. I just think is costs too much like eveything today.
