Interested heater with design defects

We bought the heater for our newborn son. Of course, there is a quite inexpensive device, but we have on the one hand by the positive reviews, but mainly due to the product photos developed certain expectations.

Unfortunately, some negative things we noticed:

The appearance of the radiant heater differs unfortunately on the picture: On the one hand, the hue of the radiant heater is more reminiscent of cheap sheet as of higher quality metal as it appears in the product image. On the other hand can not be seen, which is mounted on the wall on the product image the unit. This is one, however, always see in the application when the heater is suitably inclined to the joint down. Unfortunately, that unity is not particularly attractive.

The cord on and off with a plastic cap at the end seems durable, but cheap. Here would have even a classic peg chain from sink more charming.

The cable is 1.6 meters long as advertised and so much too short, if you have a changing table assumes that a height of about 90 cm and the recommended installation height of the radiant heater is approximately 100cm. In the most favorable case, the socket would have to at least 30cm above the floor and are to be accessible in a straight line -. So do not sometimes lead to the lying surface of the wrapping table.

The cable itself is the purpose. It is white with a one-sided printed in black on total cable length and is nothing for the eye.

For wall mounting screws and plugs are included. The heater should then be hooked to the screws on the wall. Horizontally to fasten the screws with a distance of 25cm exactly in the wall, so that even the much longer heater on the wall or visually acting horizontally, is almost impossible. One way of readjustment does not exist.
Who securing especially when switching on / off the cord is too shaky, can screw the mounting housing and tighten the screws to the wall hooking.

The recommended installation distance of 1 meter above the child is too big for the heat output. As noted here about 80-90cm distance are recommended.

Subjective heating is equivalent to 600 watt and optimized mounting height good after a short warm-up period. In one test, the heater warmed the air to the changing mat from initially 21.3 ° C in the first minute at 21.6 ° C and after approx rotates around 1 ° C per minute to 29.3 ° C after 10 minutes ,

The automatic switch-off is working properly, but the time with 10 minutes at a real joy diaper is too short. This raises the question of whether the fire had actually increased dramatically after 15 minutes. Projections of temperature increase in the above-mentioned experiment (in polynomial adjustment) would after 15 minutes an air temperature above the changing mat of max. Are expected to 32 ° C.

I have uploaded other images of the product at Amazon.

In summary, it must be said that the heater is useful but not pretty looks nor loving construction testifies. If it is not to look nice and an extension cord is at hand, is likely to be a good choice of reer 1902.06.

Point deduction is available for an unrealistic product photo, a too short and printed cable, difficult installation without readjustment to a short delay and loveless appearance.
Due to the low price and otherwise fulfilling functionality I forgive 2 points.
