dose the heater safe, cost less power bill
1798996
I assume the question is "Is the heater safe and does it reduce your power bill?" I will answer the question this way: I've bought a lot of oil filled electric radiators, and they always break down after a few years. I bought three of these, and they were all bad. (See my review.) I would not recommend it. Although the oil radiators have their good points, I prefer baseboard style heaters, which heat faster and also radiate heat. As for reducing your heating bill, it just depends on your use, the size of your house and many other factors. If you're able to reduce the entire house heat and just use an electric heater for one or two zones, then yes, you will probably save some on your heating bill.

It is definitely the most cost efficient space heater I've ever used. It is cheaper to run than the traditional electric space heaters.

The heater is very safe, quite and odorless. Yes it uses less energy than the noisey fan type heaters. It's not fast but give it time and you wil fall in love with it.

It is very safe, cheaper to run than a baseboard or coil heater. The only draw back is it takes about 30 minutes+ to heat a normal master bedroom.

It's a nice little heater, however all heater use a lot of electricity. It is still a 1500 watt heater. Work good in a small space

I am using the heater 8 Hrs. a day to keep my TV room at 70 degrees. I can not say how much my electric bill has gone up because I have an all electric house and the weather this year has been very cold.

Yes, but too early to tell savings since we are on a budget gas bill plan. Heaters are nice and give out a lot of heat. Do give out significant humidity.

Yes... I've had mine since January this year and my Light Bill is usually lower or the same as it used to be prior to the electric heater coming in the picture. I actually have this and another bigger electric heater from a different brand. Both gorgeous when mounted on the wall I might add.

Would depend on type of current heating, if central electric could be a small saving as will keep area warm enough to keep central off. I moved to a rural area where electricity doubbled and gas is cheaper and electric raised my cost even with it reducing the amount of gas operation. Do not believe the usage claims are accurate unless you are in a low cost electricy area.

It does not affect the electric bill that I have noticed, I don't run it all the time only for short periods as it warms up the room (9x12) quickly.

It didn't go up much higher for me. The amount I saved on my gas bill pretty much transferred to electricity, but previously I was freezing in my second floor bedroom at night while my 1st floor living room was almost too warm. At least now the heat is where I need it to be. I was considering getting a thermostat controlled heater because sometimes I'll wake up in the middle of the night and its in the upper 80's in my room.

it is not expensive to operate. I did not notice any difference in my electric bill

I personally didn't notice my electric being any more expensive, but everyone's usage is different. If you run it quite a bit I would expect to see maybe a few dollars extra a month. This is a great heater I would highly recommend it.

We live in Florida so it's perfect to heat up a room your in. Way cheaper than my electric bill if I ran the heat. P.S. it does get cold here...

I am currently running two Gen-4 heaters in my house (on two separate levels). I just compared my electric bill from Nov 2012 and it is approximately $179 more for the month than last year. The usage graph was shown to be significantly higher, and I have not identified anything else that we have done differently. That said, the heaters work well and we are very happy with them. The amount of fuel that we have used for the main heating system (coal) is substantially lower and at least offsets the higher cost for the use of the heaters. it is also cleaner than coal and since the furnace is not running as much there is also less work with ash removal, etc. All said, we are more than satisfied with the purchase and will happily continue to use the heaters.

It all depends on the wattage. If the dish is also only 600W, it will cost the same. However, if the heater has higher watts or has a blower (fan), then Cozy-Heater will be cheaper to run.

It is a very low cost. Electric bill barley moved up last winter. I can't give you an exact figure since that was the first winter here but my son keeps his heat at 65 and uses the duraflame day and night. His bills are about $100.00 per month. He is in a double wide trailer. Far cheaper than oil.

It would depend on where you live and the plumber, but we have experienced a 20.00 drop in electronic bill by using this water heater. We have installed in 3 houses, all working well and no problems.
