Fan I have always in operation, the thermostat but not - I've bought an external socket thermostat. Processing is cheap, the sheet is of course very warm, but I need a better measurement of the temperature. At 750 watts, the power is very weak. I take only 2000 watts, because he then turns off more quickly and the temperature keeps well. After the first 3-4 days but he has begun to rattle and clatter, which is very very uncomfortable. I had to try around long as I place it until I put forward under the left foot ultimately a coaster, and so slightly tilted backwards, he is mostly silent :)))
