EAST OAK 50,000 BTU Patio Heater for Outdoor Use With Round Table Design, Double-Layer Stainless Steel Burner and Wheels, Outdoor Patio Heater for Home and Commercial, Gray, 31.9 x 31.9 x 86.6 inches

Got tgis for oyr screened porch in hope it would produce enough heat and disperse it in a good pattern to enable us to enjoy porch on chilly nights. It was easy to assemble and works very well, when its not too windy (as expected). On low/med settings it puts out enough heat to keep folks within 6-8ft radius quite comfy in high 40/ low 50 deg weather Crank it up higher for even better spread of heat. Great valye, and built well! Virtually silent operation. HIGHLY RECCOMEND

I purchased this heater after reading lots of reviews, noting that many said they had problems with the igniter, but customer service was great and fixed the problem. And the lower cost compared to other well reviewed brands was much better. Well, I have to say it was worth chancing it. We did have one problem, a screw hole was stripped and we couldn’t fully assemble it. After contacting customer service they quickly and apologetically sent me the replacement parts I needed. And even checked in after to make sure I got them, and it was working correctly. The 55K BTU is more than enough on a cool spring night, we don’t even turn it all the way up. Should be ample in colder temperatures too.

Easy to put together but takes a little bit of time. Puts off a ton of heat and looks great!

It was a little tricky To put together. It has a lot of parts. It works well, it’s not all that heavy and is pretty easy to use. It does leak propane slightly but otherwise it’s good.

For what it is and the price, it provides a nice heat. I’m not so sure about quality as after the first time I used it and stored it for over 6mo, it didn’t stay lit. However, it was fortunately under warranty still and East Oak was nice enough to send me the entire top replacement. It probably only needed a new thermocoupler and maybe a new dump switch, but it’s all brand new now. It works nicely again. So 5 stars for the service, maybe 3.5 for the heater.

Beat packing I've ever seen. That box was stuff tight with padding. If the ups guy had no cares in world loading or unloading this package. I think it would have been protected. Havent use it yet but easy direction to assemble and looks great. Wish I had known to buy sand bottom part. Don't want to attached to deck. Thought it came with it. Guess I didn't read description well enough.

I have had this patio heater a little less than a year. One evening, we had exceptionally strong winds and the heater fell over overnight (while powered off). After that, the heater would no longer stay lit, so I reached out to their support team. I cannot say enough about how wonderful my support experience was! Their team promptly sent me a replacement part and it was easy to install. Now my patio heater is working wonderfully. Most companies don’t handle support nearly this well, and this was a pleasant surprise. I would absolutely buy items from East Oak again!

This is an update after a few months. Igniter went bad. Customer service responded immediately and shipped a replacement- the entire burner assembly. They also followed up several times to check on the status. I’m very impressed.I ordered this heater after looking at dozens of other units.It took me about an hour to assemble- by myself, in 20 degree weather. Two people? 20 minutes. Directions were amazingly clear. Diagrams were large enough to read.Lighting it took two minutes, including reading the directions.It puts out a lot of heat, all directed down as advertised. Turn the dial to adjust the flame .The burner is a little noisy, like the blowtorch it is.The aluminum domed reflector sends almost all the heat down.Runtime:Peak burner output: 40,000 BTU/hourPropane has 21,500 BTU/#Standard propane cylinder is 15 #.You could run for over 7 hours at full output, longer at part load.
