When I received this heater in the mail I was a little disappointed in what I thought the heat output should be. But after using the heater for a couple days I was amazed at how well it worked. It kept a large room up to 74 degrees easily so I bought another one for up stairs.

I did have to send one TVH 600 back but this is where I had a very pleasant surprise with Sylvane Customer Service. They were friendly, responded quickly and sent out another unit the next day. I will not hesitate to buy anything Sylvane offers due to their outstanding customer service support.

So for Vornado 5 Stars for Sylvane 5 BIG STARS.

Thanks for all your help! May God Bless You in all you do.

This heater just plain works!

I have used this forum to promote the good, trash the bad, and downright berate the ugly when it comes to companies and products. For a change, this experience was better than good.

Living in a mobile home in south Texas presents a challenge: During the winter, the nights can be cold, but the days are usually pretty warm. I decided to purchase a space heater to take the chill out of the bedroom at night without having to run the central heating in the whole house. Since I basically live out of one bedroom, an electric space heater seemed the ideal solution. I tried a quartz radiant heater, but I found the heat highly directional, and the heater cycled between high and off, causing the room to cycle between chilly and hot. After doing user review research on the 'net, I decided to give the Vornado TouchStone Vortex Heater (TVH600) a try. I purchased the unit from Sylvane, because they had the best price anywhere. And y'all know me, I spent a good time looking for the best price.

When I unpacked the unit I was dubious: This heater is pretty small in physical size. But after turning it on, the heater did not take long to bring the bedroom up to a comfortable 75 degrees. This is a large master bedroom with questionable insulation, close to 16' x 16', so I was surprised when this small unit maintained the room temperature without having to run continuously. The temperature outside was in the mid 30's and the thermostat on the central heat was below 55. The fan is very quiet, but obviously efficient. Unlike the quartz heater, the Vornado's continuously variable heat keeps the room warm without cycling between warm and cool, and without the annoying directionality. The remote thermostat ensures you are at the temperature you desire, and works very effectively. I prefer to sleep with the temperature in the 60s, and even in the large bedroom the Vornado can maintain that setting in low heat mode. I have only needed the high setting during the day on colder days to maintain 75.

The backlit touch screen on the top of the heater screen works well, with a user-friendly layout, although it is more convenient to use the remote. The only criticism I have is the remote should be re-designed to display the temperature you are setting while you are adjusting it with the remote. The remote only displays the current room temperature it is sensing; therefore, you have to look at the heater to see what the setting is.

Overall this is a wonderful product, and well worth the premium over the cost of a simple space heater. And for all your air purifier, heater or related products, give Sylvane a try. You won't be disappointed.

Great Service!

My shopping experience with Sylvane was a very positive one. I placed an order for my Vornado TouchStone Vortex Heater (TVH600). The order was placed and delivered in the same week, on time as promised. It was imperative that this unit was delivered on time and Sylvane came through.
