Honeywell Oil Heater

Just to be honest I can tell you that my in-laws own a honeywell oil filled heater and we use it each time we visit them in the colder months.  It does a great job of warming the bedroom downstairs and the temperature controls are very easy to operate.  The drawback to all oil-filled heaters is that it does take some time to warm the room but once it is warm it will stay warm thanks to these units.

If you are in a hurry we have our Honeywell Oil Heater Reviews Below.

As you are aware that are many different space heater brands on the market.  The Delonghi portable heaters that are oil filled have received positive consumer reviews and might be a tad cheaper than Honeywell depending upon where you purchase each model.  However, when you do read reviews you will see negative reviews for all radiator heaters including Holmes Electric heaters with oil, Lakewood, Optimus and the others. Take them with a grain of salt unless you see over 30% complaints, then you better take heed.

Now back to the Honeywell home comfort products.  What you will find on most Honeywell oil heaters and the reasons why Honeywell draws so many people to their home heaters are:

• back-lit control panel which is great in the dark
• adjustable thermostat to help you keep a comfortable level at all times
• 3 heats setting that will help keep the room temperature consistent
• external storage for the cords when not in use
• multiple safety features like tipover, auto shut off and some have GFI/ALCI plugs
• after initial burn they are odorless
• Honeywell energy smart heater helps you save money over oil prices
• they are very quiet to operate--you have no idea they are on unless you touch it

These heaters come in several different models and they range from $45 up to over $100 depending on which model you choose.  Each model will add more bells and whistles like thermostat controls, control panel use, etc.  Below you will find our Honeywell Oil-Filled Radiator reviews.

4 Model Reviews of the Honeywell Oil Heater

Honeywell AZDH-HZ 709 Oil Filled Radiator Heater.  Frist off, you will never need to replace the oil in the hz709 because they are fully enclosed with special welding. It is a digital unit and you have three watt settings. 1500 watts, 900 watts and 500 watts.  It comes with a three pronged plug-in that is an added safety feature.  It has a back light which makes it easy to read the digital display in the dark. It comes with caster wheels that are easy to put on and you have a 5 yr. warranty with the HZ 709.

I know people who owned several quartz heaters who have now replaced them with the HZ-709.  One guy has 3 of these things and as you can imagine he is very happy with his units ability to heat as well as cost savings.

Honeywell HZ 609 Oil Filled Radiator Heater  one of the first things you'll notice with all these oil heaters are:  odorless and quiet.  Much like it's brother the 709, it has three settings, three pronged plug and back light.  The big difference is the color and no digital displays.  Also keep in mind with all oil filled radiator heaters, it takes time for them to warm a room, but once it's warm, you can lower the settings and keep it toasty.

The Honeywell Oil-Filled Radiator has no model number but it's gonna be the medium priced unit.  It has the features of the HZ 709 but not as many fins.  One feature this unit has, is a timer which you can set and it will turn itselfs off.  Some people claim this unit costs more money to use, but I do believe it is dependant on the area you live in and the price of electricity versus gas.

The Top of the line model is the Honeywell Digital Oil Heater and you can expect to pay at least $149 and it will have all the key features we've listed above.  Obviously that added caveat would be the digital display, it will have tip over protection, auto shut off and overheating shutoff.

Here are three Honeywell Oil Heater models.
 

Additional information about oil-filled radiator units.  Once you turn on your heater the element inside will heat the oil.  The warm oil will rise and give off heat typically through the fins found on the unit.  As that oil cools it will settle back down to the bottom and be replaced with the new hot oil and it will rise to the top and give off heat.  As the heat from the heater rises it will fill the room with it's own convection heat and it will circulate in the room exactly like it does inside the heater.  The beauty of this type of convection heat is no breeze from something like a fan driven heater.  Think Honeywell Tower heater with it's oscillating motion and air being blown into the room or the Holmes HFH105 1500 Watt Portable Electric Space Heater.

Oil filled heaters work best when you plan on using them over the long haul.  That means heating the bedroom overnight or filling the basement playroom with warmth for the day.  If you have a really cool area that would be impossible to heat then we do recommend the radiant heat style warmers. They will warm the objects directly in front of it and keep you warm until it is turned off.

Another option is the fan forced ceramic style that would be good for small areas like the bathroom.
