Heaters come with brand names and marketing terms that vary. Amish Heaters is one of those names that get spoken about the most, this really because the marketing campaign was emphatic and the controversy even more so. So, marketing spin aside, what is it that the Amish Heater claims to be and is it true?
The "Miracle heater" is how the marketers advertise this equipment. Here is a heater that will save you money on the heating bills. This is a fireplace that acts as a space heater (can be moved to any room) and you get the heater for free but just pay for the Amish carpentry of the wood mantle which encases it. What an interesting spin on a heater - sold as a piece of furniture that you pay for but you don't pay the $350-$400 for the heater!
A finely crafted mantle that encases what is essentially a space heater is actually what the real deal is. You will be getting a piece of furniture that acts as a heater...that's the bottom line after the marketing hype.
Therefore, on the face of it, we have a space heater comparable to any other space heater with the exception that it looks really good with the wood mantle and the light bulb projected display of faux logs burning in a welcoming homely fashion - all warm and cozy. Nice. But does this so called Miracle heater live up to its name and save money?
They state the heater outputs '5,110 BTU's"! Outstanding but just what does that actually does that mean? The definition is not really as sexy as it sounds - it's really a 1,500 watt electric heater. The claim that the makers; Surge make, is that their heater "can heat a 325 sq. ft. room for no more than a cost of just 16 cents an hour" Again, that sounds good but how does that compare to other similar heaters? The fact of the matter is, with proper heat zoning, leaving other rooms unheated, any good space heater can achieve the same.
The Heat Surge Roll-n-Glow Electric Fireplace aka Amish Heater, is an ornate space heater that tries to be a fireplace, and, to some extent, succeeds, purely by its attractiveness. It comes with cherry, black and white and oak surrounds and its faux log burning looks realistic and gives off a nice warm glow with a 1.500 watt and 750 watt setting. The heater is definitely convenient, as a space heater would be and more importantly is safe and quiet.
A remote control lets you turn the heater on and off as well as to control the temps between high and low, in addition, offering you a dozen or so different glow settings. As far as safety goes, this heater is 100% compliant with the US recognized standards of safety and has the all important tip-off switch that will activate if the heater should tip over. One really good aspect of the Amish Heater is that its outer areas such as the mantle do not get hot to the touch, even after hours of use. It is a safe heater to have with small children or pets around.
This is a fan-forced convection heater that is very attractive. 'Amish' heaters are well priced against its competitors in the market. The truth is, there really is nothing that suggests it is a Miracle Heater. The hype is exactly that. Certainly, this is a heater that deserves more credit for being a heater that does the job and looks attractive. The marketing, sadly, is misleading and not very smart. It has created a mistrust in a piece of equipment that can stand on its own without the spin. Is it worth the buy? Certainly - just ignore the rubbish marketing.
