When the weather outside turns frigid, stay warm and cozy indoors with the aid of this baseboard heater from Italian appliance specialist DeLonghi. The 120-volt heater spreads heat throughout a room in half the time needed by other baseboard heaters and works as a cost-effective alternative to a household heating system in small rooms. In particularly cold weather, the quiet heater complements a central heat system, bringing comforting heat to corners of high activity while the main system runs on low power for greater energy conservation. DeLonghi constructed the baseboard heater in rustproof metal for even heat distribution and resilience. The heating element features an x-shaped design and does not glow. To turn on the heater, users avoid bending over with an ergonomic foot switch. Three power settings allow flexibility for diverse rooms and personal heating needs. For energy efficiency, the heater runs low at 600 watts or medium at 900 watts to slowly spread warmth. On high at 1500 watts, the unit brings full heat to a room with extra speed. Users select their ideal comfort temperature with an adjustable thermostat. After reaching this temperature, the heater continues to sense the room's current heat and reacts accordingly to maintain the comfort level. An antifreeze function engages should the indoor temperature fall below 44 degrees F, while the heater also automatically shuts off upon knock-over or overheating. The stable unit connects to outlets with its 3-foot power cord. DeLonghi advises against placing the heater outdoors or near flammables. Thorough safety guidelines and instructions are included. A limited 90-day warranty covers this item. The baseboard heater measures 47-1/4 by 4-1/3 by 10-1/2 inches and weighs 13 pounds upon shipping --Jessica Reuling
