Great little heater that probably deserves a 5 star review, I deducted 1 star because I felt that the instructions on the programing of all of the features could be better. The heater it's self works great, very efficient and nice to have in case of emergencies. It's a little loud on start up but when it gets up to temperature it quiets down considerably. I can't speak on the durability because I haven't had it that long.

I bought this heater to warm my garage and a second to warm my shop. Right out of the box it starts and runs with little to no smoke. Manual was helpful for fuel priming, but as a user you gotta be smart. You can easily overprime which will send fuel out the exhaust and could cause an unsafe situation. My biggest (and possibly only) gripes are: 1. The remote isn't super resilient. I ended up breaking mine. Vevor replaced it free of charge which was wonderful, but without the remote there is no way to adjust the the heat setpoint. 2. the receiver for the remote is the secondary power button. It's attached only with a cheap piece of two-sided tape which isn't really great in a cold environment. I'm going to 3d print something to hold it in place that will either screw or bolt to the housing. 3. The exhaust pipe bent at 90 degrees doesn't clear the bottom feet, so it needs to be propped up on something. I'm mounting mine on the wall so it shouldn't be a problem but you can't just place it on the ground and route the exhaust outside.

Little hard to figure out some of the settings and features but once you get it set up it works great!!

This was not at all what I expected. Was my bad I didn't do my homework on this one. I'm sure it's right for someone just not me

These are great diesel heaters! I put one of these 2kw Bluetooth models in my gmc savana kind of underneath and behind the drivers seat. I did use the optional pedestal that uses a five inch hole and mounted the fuel pump underneath the van. I feel that the 2kw is the perfect size because the 5kw and 8kw that I have used are just too many btu. I purchased two more for other vehicles.

Great unit and puts out an extreme amount of heat. The only minor complaint is the exhaust comes out of the bottom and there isn’t much room to run it

this heater is great uses very little fuel oil ive heard the fuel pump is noisy wrong blue tooth app on my phone works everytime if your looking for a great priced heater that works this is for you

This little heater worked great on my recent camping trip in the mountains where nighttime temps were in the low 30s. Ran for 10 hours and only used 80% of the 1 gallon fuel tank and only 20% of my 100Ah camper battery. I definitely recommend for anyone looking for an inexpensive heating solution.

The machine works and does a decent job warming my garage. However, it struggles to heat my shop (24x24) effectively when the temperature drops to 20-40°F at night. Initially, I had trouble getting it to start because my 10-amp power supply wasn’t sufficient. Luckily, I had a 30-amp power supply on hand, and with that, it started right up. Yesterday, I went into the shop to do some work and discovered it was out of fuel, even though I left it almost full (I pushed the button until it displayed "OFF" the other day). I was confused until tonight when I heard it running on its own without any input! After looking into it, I think the issue is with the timer or some automatic setting that causes the machine to start by itself. Unfortunately, the manual is so poorly written that I have no idea if I managed to turn it off, so I just unplugged the power supply to be safe until I can confirm it’s off for good. Another issue is the display—it’s very hard to read and difficult to tell which indicators are lit. Conclusion: The machine works, but the interface is terrible, and the instructions are even worse. How can I replace the current controller?

Everyone has mixed reviews on these but what it boils down to is lack of knowledge. These units work great! Only thing i recommended is upgrading fuel line to the white more ridged line and better fuel filter.
