What users think:

Many users expressed satisfaction with its performance, noting its effectiveness in keeping a 35 cu m greenhouse frost-free. They appreciated its versatility, robust build, and relatively quiet operation, concluding that they were very happy with their purchase.

However, other users was disappointed with the heater's performance, stating that it only heated a small area. They felt that the price charged was not justified given the limited heating capacity. Furthermore, they likened the heating element to that of a kettle and suggested that the rating may indicate energy consumption rather than heat output. In their view, the heater underperformed compared to a domestic fan heater.

In summary, while some users found the Biogreen Electric Fan Heater to be effective and satisfactory for their needs, others were disappointed by its limited heating capacity and perceived lack of value for the price.

Direct quotes from owners:

Bought to keep a 35 cu m greenhouse frost free it has done every thing asked of it. It has different functions which allow flexibility, seems robust, is relatively quiet in operation and so what's not to like? Very happy with it.


Disappointed, will only heat a small area. I would not recommend at the price charged. The heating element is similar to that of a kettle. the rating is probably the energy consumption and not the heat output. Comparing the output with a domestic fan heater it under performs.
