KING KCV1204-W alCove Series Radiant Convection Cove Heater, 34" / 420W / 120V, White

This sunroom was always freezing with 2 regular baseboard heaters. Now this radiant one heats the tile floor and now the room is amazing. I am a hvac contractor and tried this setup prior to the permanent installation. The heater does get hot so don’t touch it. lol. Actually no hotter than the old baseboard ones that it replaced. 5 stars. 👍🏼👍🏼

Very pleased with the purchase. We live in an area with municipal electric which is by far the cheapest way to heat our home. Wired our brand new home for these and they work excellent. Like any type of electric baseboard, radiant or convection heater, they are slow to heat the room but keep it a very consistent temperature, very easily. We love that we don't have to be concerned where furniture or belonging go.

this heater was easy to install, it operates with no noise at all and does a good job of keeping my office warm and my electric cost down, I will be buying more to install in my house.

This item looks better than the Amazon picture shows, it is lighter colored. Also the description is not correct - there is no fan on this heater (I haven't seen a fan on a cove heater before, so that would have suprised me anyway).The heater functions like other cove heaters I have experienced. It is a mild heat, the heater itself does not get very hot, but works well to raise the temperature in my basement office from 60 to 75 (10'x14' room). I would recommend 240v for heaters since 120v is just not enough wattage, and will struggle to heat all but the smallest spaces. Also get the longest cove heater you can fit on your wall. This 59" heater is minimum for my size room, but this is all the space I had to allow clearance with a door and smoke alarm.I have experience with both Cove heaters and Baseboard heaters. Baseboard heaters are cheaper, and may perform a little better for the same size, but Cove heaters work better in rooms where you don't want a heater down low behind furniture - so makes it more flexible to arrange the room. Cove heaters also tend to radiate heat down so feel warm when in front of it. Both heater types need to be left 'on' with a thermostat control, as the recover time is long (they don't work well to quickly bring the room temperature up, but will hold the room at a comfortable temperature if left on). The only down-side to both heaters is you will have to plan ahead when finishing the room to run wires from the service panel in your home to the location. They are easy to install if you plan ahead, but not easy to install after the room is finished.Overall I am happy with this heater's appearance, and o.k. with it's performance.

This heater does a pretty good job but you can definitely tell this isnt your average 1500w cove. Im an electrician and deal with lots of different brands and i cant say anything bad about this one compared to others. Mounting was easy and wiring was the same as usual. Bought this for my parents for their 15x15 hot tub room that isnt insulated very well. Needless to say i thought this would do but they ended up buying a 1500w space heater to add to it and now its fine. If i were to do it again, i would just go with a better one for more money.

Heater acts much like a baseboard heater but is installed near the ceiling. I installed this to free up wall space in my bedroom. It works well and is able to keep my room a constant temp. You will need to have a thermostat to use this heater.

UPDATE: King Electric replaced the unit and will analyze the original to determine the cause of the peeling. The replacement is working well.This is a defectively manufactured product. Purchased Sept 4, 2012, limited use. Paint is peeling off the unit with chips on the floor below. 2nd - this unit was first screwed to the wall as intended by the manufacturer. I quickly discovered how hot the wall was - and made two half inch spacers for it out of a couple of half inch copper tubing. Unit heats nicely - BUT, do not purchase this unit, you'll have paint chips all over the floor.King KCV1204 420-Watt 120-Volt 34-Inch Cove Heater, AlmondKing Electrical Mfg. Company

Purchased this product for a 12x12 basement bedroom. Wanted a room heater that didn't take up floor space nor limited furniture layout...although I haven't installed this product yet, I give it 2 stars based upon what was in and not in the package as delivered. 1. The cove heater does not have installation instructions.2. It was in a generic brown box (not in a "manufacturer packaged" box).3. The product looks like it may be damaged? As in the fact that the face support brackets were bent and not "connected" or supporting the face.Probably the most disappointing product I've received through Amazon in easily over 100 purchases.

Installation was easy. However we were disappointed with the heat output when compared to our old 750w baseboard heater. Will have to add another one. Looks great and free up the floor space.

I had this heater installed in a bedroom due to lack of floor space. This provides a nicer heat than the one replaced that was installed originally against the wall on the floor.
