" ... The oscillating feature is a plus. ... "
" ... It has an oscillating feature which is great. ... It has a timer feature with the push of a button from 1 hour to four hours. ... "
" ... The rotation feature is a definite plus! ... "
" ... Love the auto features on the heater. ... "

The overheating failsafe was a jewel as well as the fact that if I accidentally kicked it over, it had a safety function to shut off . ... "
" ... If you use the rotating mode and set the temp, it is amazing!!! ... "
