Customer Reviews for Cadet Perfectoe 1,000-Watt 120-Volt Fan-Forced Under-Cabinet Electric Heater in Black

Nice little heater when you’re limited on space worked fine for my RV

Added to kitchen slab of concrete floors under the cabinets for a space of 400sq ft. It has a thermostat that can adjust the temperature and fan for output of 1000watts max.

great product but it would be nice if the reset button was accessible, without removing cover [tools]

I purchased this to replace an under cabinet radiant water toe kick heater. It's awesome and easy to install.

This unit is way too big to use in most toe kick areas. If it were to go under a vanity the cabinet would have to be cut to accommodate it. Also, note that it requires a separate thermostat therefore must hav ewiring that connects if thermostat is to be wall mounted. I returned it thus no comment on its performance.

Faulty

Excellent product, well made. Easy to install, the longest part of installation was removing the 29 year old heater that stopped working. You will be satisfied with this product. Strong blower motor.

Nice unit. Exact replacement for 15 year old unit.

Gets the job done at an affordable price. Easy install.

Fan was noisy when first installed. I loosened the grill mounting screws and it quieted down.

easy to install and reasonably quiet

Was easy to add the thermostat and install the unit. Would have liked a stronger fan to kick out more warm air, but it works fine.

We are so happy to finally have heat in our small bathroom.

Replaced an old under counter heater. New one is so much more quiet. Works good!

works great, quiet, easy install

I purchased this as an exact replacement for original equipment in my 5th wheel trailer which is 12 years old. I had to purchase separately the thermostat unit, which added to the price but is an indispensable part of the system. Heater was easy to install and works perfectly, just like the original. Initially I felt the price for the heater plus the thermostat was a little high, but in retrospect the build quality is quite good and probably worth the price (especially considering my previous one lasted 12 years in a RV, which is notoriously hard on electronic devices.) One final thought: 1000 watts produces a nice gentle heat, but isn't going to crank out enough BTU's to heat large spaces quickly.

Bought to replace original Perfectoe in a 2004 motor coach. Was an exact replacement and install was a simple 5 min job. Compared to other original unit, fan power seems to be slightly less. However, it heats area quicker. Love that it's Made In USA!

Perfect replacement, fast shipping but very poor packaging by shipper.

Easy install. Wish the need for the thermostat was emphasized better.

Compact. Well made. Easy to install. Attractive appearance. Works fine but doesn't put out quite as much heat As I expected. Maybe I should have installed a 240 volt unit.

Remodeled by bathroom and this toe kick heater was the perfect touch of heat I needed.

Product was good, performs well, was easy to install

Easy to install, works great! I installed in the bathroom with a 20 minute timer switch.

Just replaced two original heaters from this company that lasted 24 years! New ones work great and are very quiet! GREAT product!

I wanted to supplement the HVAC heat going into my small 12x8 master bath, so I added this kick-space heater. It is for supplemental heat only, not trying to heat the whole room. Many products are wired for 220, but I only had a 110/115 circuit to wire it into. I was able to run a new 15amp circuit for this heater, and would suggest doing that to anyone. Keep in mind that if you run the heater and use a blow dryer on the same circuit, you may find yourself resetting the breaker from time to time. So, if possible, add a dedicated circuit for the heater. (yes, I had an electrician do that part.) I can't really testify to other characteristics, like, quality, durability, features, etc. It is simple to use - flip it ON or flip it OFF. Nothing to tough in that regard. The most challenging part was cutting out the toe-kick under the cabinet, and running the wire for its own circuit. I read some reviews that talked about a rattle, or a high noise level. I can only say that I did tape down the extra wire in the box during the hook-up steps, to keep the wire and the wire nuts from vibrating on anything and away form the motor. As for noise, it hums like a hair-dryer on a low setting. I did have to buy a Halex 3/4 in. Non-Metallic (NM) Twin-Screw Clamp Connector to run the Romex power cable into the box. These come in a pak of 5 and you only need one. I wish they would have just included it in the parts package, but what can I say.
