We purchase an Edenpure Gen 1000 heater for our fifth wheel this year so if we stay in parks we can use that instead of the furnace. They are not cheap but have amazing heating ability and only suppose to use the power of a coffee pot. One thing we like about it is there is no humidity like there is with the propane. We do boondock most the winter but we also have a propane fireplace we got in QUARTSITE last winter. Now we feel we have all the heat issues covered, and could probably use the Eden Pure with the generator but have not tried it yet. They do have there own web site, but got ours off ebay. This is not an advertisement, but we love that heater... Heather and Jerry

Glad you are happy with your heater, here is what Consumer Reports thinks of it though.

Thanks Fred for that link to the consumer report on those heaters. I never got a chance to look at it yet, but I sure will. This is actually the second infrared we have had , the other one was a canadian version. As with any space heater we never leave it unattended and turn it off at night, Thanks once again for the link. Always good to get some intelligent feed back as consumers. Heather

Disclosure: I work with a company that sells infrared heaters similar to Edenpure.
That's an interesting article from Consumer Reports, mostly a common-sense critique of Edenpure's marketing strategy - about which there is much to critique :)
We sell the heater without hype as what it is: A really great, safe space heater - with a remarkable ability to heat the room evenly, rather than slow-roasting one or two hot-spots. Magical? No. Right for everybody? Of course not. Overly-hyped in some marketing? Unfortunately, yes. But in my opinion and that of countless other users, an infrared heater generally works better than the "scientific" analyses report - though not as well as claimed by the frenetic marketing.

Hope this input helps somebody.
