some complained about electrical socket are the functional because it would be a great idea if the electric worked

It works, you would need a adapter to plug your microwave in but I love it and I had no problem putting it together and all the parts were there and I receive it two days early. I will be ordering for my daughter soon.

Of course the electrical socket has to be plugged into an outlet. I did use an adapter for the first cart electrical socket then just plugged the second cart to it. I purchased 2 - great space saver!Had no problems.

I have my toaster and microwave plugged into the socket that comes with this unit works great for me

No, and quite honestly it's a good idea, because half of those with the detachable cord end up non functional, and need to replace the cord.

It would probably do the job but normaly large appliances like this should be powered direct to a dedicated outlet

It should recharge automatically, otherwise, there may be another electrical problem (possibly a transformer).

I believe it has nothing to do with the socket. The popup lighter should work once it reaches temperature.

While you can plug a refrigerator into it, and surge protectors are a good idea, remember you don't want to plug multiple items into the circuit.

The unit provides protection against electrical spikes and surges. Your problem is with the electrical utility provider could be a transformer issue

It is electric and needs an outlet. I would suggest another brand though...

No problem with ours - we did change out the old electric socket for a new one though. The old one was slightly loose & pretty old. We have a Heat Surge Accent also. These heaters are awesome!

This is something I am working on. Plan on having the electrician in to do just that and think it will be possible.

It can be but it's designed to be mounted to a receptacle in an outdoor electrical box.

It will need to be installed by an electrician unless you are familiar with electrical wiring

The problem is apparently with the lining up of the connections and after a while it works if the electricity goes off.

It's not up to electrical code where I live, but I plan to be here for a long time so if it was me I would do it anyway. Many electricians won't do the work, however, if the job doesn't meet code. My only concern would be whether or not the metal parts would rust from being in a more humid environment. It's not made to be exposed to moist air like outside or in a bathroom. Good luck to you.

I'm not an expert on electrical or fire 'codes', but I highly suspect that this warning is a standard kind of legal 'disclaimer' -- i.e. if a fire can be traced to defective wiring in this device, the manufacturer will claim that it is the customer's fault for keeping it plugged-in all the time. Furthermore, it is probably reasonable to assume that the cheaper the appliance is, the more likely it will be subject to some kind of electrical "accident."

I believe its a heat issue though be warned this are pretty cheaply built be very careful threading it in if not it will just spin in the socket.

It's hit or miss on having a plug. Some do and some don't so it's a gamble. Wiring the plug is not difficult though.
