Keeps my 2 car garage warm for work during cold winter days
A friend had a Reddy Heater, so I was able to 'try before I bought'. I had an electric radiant heater, not good for those days below 40 degrees and that is why my friend brought his unit over. Another friend had one of those pan reflectors that connects to a 20lb tank and that didn't even keep the edge off temps in his garage during cold winter temps.With this heater, in about 20 minutes, you can work in your garage/shop with just a sweatshirt on days below 32 degrees (bottled water that I had stored there had froze, but melted during use of the heater). When temps are in the 30s, you can wear a t-shirt and you will be warm.If you have a larger than 2 car garage, or if insulation is not as good, you may want to get a bigger unit with variable BTU settings. However, this unit is more than adequate for a standard 2 car, that is finished with insulated walls.

Works super fine. Never any problem with it.

I think I can, I think I can ... but it doesn't.
I bought this unit to warm my two-car garage so I could work out there during the winter. Guess I should have purchased a larger/different model as it only warms it when the temperature is 35 degrees or higher and even then takes several hours. It sounds like a jet engine at idle which gets on your nerves if you have it on very long. It should work fine in the spring and fall to take the chill off so will still be useful. If you have a smaller space to heat it should work fine but be sure to get one bigger than you think you need.

Replacement For My Other Reddy Heater
I discovered that someone had accidently stepped on the protruding gas button on my 35K BTU Reddy Heater this morning, and the replacement part was about 90 bucks, so better to just chunk it and buy a new one.This 30K BTU is 5K BTU's less than what I had, but it should do fine in my 2-car garage. Moving up to 55K BTU's was more than I wanted to pay. Besides, I'm in the south where the winters are mild and over before you know it.When it's really cold, I tend to just stay inside the house...but when I need to work out in the garage, I fire up the Reddy Heater and go in for a cup of coffeeto give it a chance to heat up the garage. I find I usually have to re-light it fairly quickly due to the leaks in the garage, but that's not the heaters fault. I went with the Reddy Heater as opposed to Mr. Heater simply because Ihave always had good results with Reddy, and it's well-built. Hopefully the build quality hasn't changed. (My old heater was solid white, not red). Might as well stay with who brought me to the dance.

Pretty Decent
Not a bad buy for the money. I've had the heater about a year; it works well and seems well made. It easily heats my two-car garage (which has a 13 foot ceiling) from 35-40 degrees to comfortable in about 30-45 minutes. I've never actually measured, but my impression is that I go through propane pretty fast. The heater claims a 14-hour burn on a 20# tank - that's probably about right. I wish it had a gas shut-off valve on the heater, as it would be nice to keep the propane outside and not have to run out to shut it off, but that is my only complaint.

Caveat Emptor
I ordered this unit through Amazon, but it came for an outfit called Go Camping. It was obviously a display model or a return. It was covered with dust and had several scratches. I would have returned it, but I needed a heater immediately for a project I have underway. I have also learned that the unit is available from Home Depot for $99.00. The box contains a bold print statement to call the manufacturer if there are any problems with the unit. However, the number provided takes you to a recorded message directing you to the manufacturer's website. The website is a simple half-screen of links to manuals and parts. There is no customer service number. If you do have an issue, you will have to take the unit to a service center.

Great heater for interior work
Can't stand the smell of half burned kero so bought propane. Quickly heats up 1000 sq ft. Think of four high output burners on gas stove at full throttle and you can imagine the heat output. Very noisy, you wan't be able to work long in the same room. NOTE: HD sells the 40,000 BTU for $90. 20 lb tank is extra of course, and $20 propane refill should last 10 or more hours.-gary
