Good design with slow performance

Before I get to the review, I want to talk about our structure. Since the wall of the changing table has been deleted and provided with a mural, the drilling of a radiant heater was out of the question. So I bought the Reer in 1909 to provide our child with mobile heat.

The Structure
The heater can be quickly and also build without instructions. There are three bars and a stand waiting to be connected. We use only two rods, as the Reer 1909 is still high enough. ATTENTION: The described by many reviewers "plastic smell" is definitely there, but vanishes after some time. We have let the heater aired 48 hours in the basement. A deduction of points, I do not forgive them.

The handling
About the functions I need to write here nothing. Everything works via a pull switch. This is simple and intuitive, and does not bother the baby at night. However, quickly showed initial weaknesses in the design. The large and massive pedestal prevents the unit can be pushed close to the changing table. Possibly can be prevented with a table, which is not closed at the bottom of this problem. For us, this is not the case. Reer missed it here, at the top of a sort of "traffic light rod", which would allow a horizontal extension. That would have been necessary in the heating power. This brings me to the second minus point.

The Performance
At first glance, the heating effect sufficiently. Especially in the area in front of the heating elements and to 15 centimeters beneath everything is nice and warm. However dieHitze also acts very selectively - so I find it in any case and a handle on different body parts of the baby confirms this. It is due to the design now not possible to align the Reer central front of the child - it must always easy are laterally offset. Combined with the foot problem there is a scene in which one is always looking for the perfect place for the baby. It is either too hot or too cold.

Conclusion
Despite the criticisms of the Reer 1909 is a good compromise for those who do not want to drill in order to provide their child with heat. The structure is simple, the functions learned quickly. And basically sufficient, the heating power, if one finds a different environment than is the case with us. I would recommend the Reer hesitation when the heating would be functional align. So it remains only a solid heater.
