Lasko 8" 1500-Watt Ceramic Bathroom Space Heater with ALCI Safety Plug and Timer

Even with some negative responses and product failures reported, I still decided to purchase this heater due to its overwhelmingly positive reviews and popularity based on the number of units sold. Now, after using it for over a year without any problems, it has proven its value to me in cost, performance and reliability. This Lasko CD08200 Small Portable Ceramic Space Heater was a replacement for an older heater of a similar type and power rating that had simply lost its heating effectiveness after decades of use. It is always cold in my 6 ft. x 9 ft. basement bathroom, requiring some fortitude when stepping out of the shower. Hence a heater had become a necessary appliance there. Ceramic heaters produce plenty of heat for their size and are a great choice for bathrooms, making this unit appropriate for that purpose. I typically operate the heater for about 30 minutes per day, mainly during the cooler weather months. But even in summer, the heater will eliminate the chill of air conditioning which makes the basement bathroom quite cool then, as well. I found the information provided here by the manufacturer to be comprehensive and accurately describes the product and its usage in every detail. Links to important safety documents and instructions for use (in PDF format) are also included. To summarize, the Lasko CD08200 heater is a small, but effective 1500-watt personal heater with a simple one-button control, making it very easy to use. It heats very well, particularly in relatively small spaces, like bathrooms.

I went through 3 other heaters before getting to this one & I love this one the best! I got the little white square cube :) It's kind of simple, and that's what I love about it. I love that the first setting is 1 hour high heat and it'll turn itself off. I use this one to warm up my bathroom for my shower. I have not really used the second setting, which is just high, or the third setting, which is just low. I remember reading another review mentioning this is a great little cube, and you don't have to worry about it being tipped over and I agree with that completely. I remember reading that it's kind of a pain to move because there's no handle and I agree with that also. But it's not too heavy, which is important for me because I'm getting older and have hand and finger issues. I'm hard-of-hearing so I don't really know about the noise level. Doesn't bother me any. I love how compact this heater is; it's very space saving :) and I think it has very good airflow. I'm not sure about how long but it'll heat up my bathroom from 58° to like 76° in probably half an hour. Then I took my shower and it was still going when I was done. This was on the one hour timer. It's just a great little heater and I suspect the durability will be great :) I absolutely recommend this heater!! I watched other video reviews and that really helped me decide :)

We absolutely love this heater. I should say that our bathroom is somewhat on the small side, but it's definitely far better than any others we've used. It starts putting out a lot of heat the moment it's turned on. The foot print is small and because it's shaped like a small cube, it can't be knocked over like the standard skinny tall ones. Because of this it doesn't need (or have) an automatic shut off switch on the bottom -- a small short cube can't fall over. I like the simple and very large diameter push switch on the top, no small knobs or switches to fiddle with. Tapping it gives you On, On for an hour and Off. I wish it also had a straight no heat fan option, but it doesn't, however, I'm quite happy with it anyway. There is no handle to pick it up with, but since the front is the only surface that gets hot (and quckly cools off when heater is turned off) it's quite easy to just pick it up by squeezing the two sides between the palms of your hands. Takes up little space, performs very well, high quality cord with circuit breaker plug and much nicer looking than most.

Have only owned this for about a week. The first couple times I turned it on, it would shut off after a minute or so. Now it seems to be working fine. The biggest issue is that it moves while on. There is no grip on the bottom of the unit, so when I have it on the higher setting, it travels on my counter top. I can only use the low setting to keep it from going somewhere I don’t want it to. Not sure what product I can safely use to add grip to the bottom since the unit gets hot. Heat level is good!

This little space heater is so fantastic! It heats up our bathroom in minutes! It saved us from spending money to rip out our old but nice radiator & put baseboard heat in when remodeling the bathroom. I am so thrilled! It works great!!!!!

This item is super heat for your bathroom. The color blends with my decor and I appreciate the safety plug. It’s easy to turn on for a timed hour or high or low and you can even just tap the large on button with your foot. Great product!

I wasn’t gonna review this product but I feel it necessary once I looked back at other customers reviews and noticed the same issue, this product should be removed from purchasing, I had my heater maybe a little over a month if that, and I started to smell plastic like burning, but I never could see anything or where the smell coming from. Finally I’ll look in the back of the heater and it’s completely melted I noticed the same complaint from others and a manufacturer telling them that it’s the socket not the heater. This cannot be true. It’s happening too many times, look back through the reviews and you’ll see several of these heaters melted out. I am so glad I happen to be at home that day, I took the heater and threw it over the balcony. It was smelling and burning so badly If you purchased this heater, you purchased it at your own wrist. Do not at any time leave it unattended and powered on this is a dangerous merchandise..
