This Lasko 7553020 does not say what size room this will heat. The bedrom I need the heater to heat is about 200 sq ft. Will this do the job? Tom,

I would not try it in a larger room. I have it in a 12x24 ( 288 sq ft ) room and it takes 5-6 hours to get the room to about 71F from 66F

Sorry for the delayed answer. I don't think this heater puts out enough heat for a 200ft room in the middle of winter. Maybe if you leave it on a long time with the door closed.

I have in a room in the garage that is 8x20ft and no problem in getting this room to 70F, takes about 10 minutes and stays there until I shut it off. Have seen other comments about this heater for room sizes up to 200 sq ft.

I use it in a 10x20 room that has no insulation (1934 house) and it does great! It doesn't make the room hot but it definitely takes the chill off. I already bought another one for this winter!

How did the two heaters work out? I'd imagine it to work well, depends on total square footage, yet Im not too sure how it will match up against two 1500 watt heaters.The thing I did like about this heater is that it doesn't dry out the air, and also has temp settings. If the area is a medium space, you should be fine.

If The room Temperature starts at about 60° it will heat the room about 2° an hour. You can feel the heat blow About 2 feet away from it. I use two heaters to heat my thousand square-foot home

Oh, I forgot to mention that it might take a couple of house to heat up a room of 1000 square feet. So, the rating is way off. It should be some where like 400 square feet instead of 1000 like they advertised it.

25 x 25= 625 sq ft. This heater is rated for an area that would be around 1100-1200 square feet. In your smaller space, this would be a lot of heat and you would have a real ventilation problem unless you had open window or doors leading from this space. A smaller heater rated at around 10,000 btu would be best for you.

I am using it in a 10 x 12' or 12 x 12' room and it works great. Sometimes gets the room a little too warm, so I think it could probably heat a slightly larger room effectively as well.

It is being used in a room that is approx 250 square feet. The unit heats the entire room and keeps it warm with little trouble. I believe it is rated for 400 square feet.

Spark,We have been very happy with this unit. We have 3 now. It should heat room that size quite easily. Set the heater to the temperature you want, don't just set it on high because it will continue to heat the room, and it will make your room too hot...

I used this heater in a living room of 400 sqft. There are 3 heaters total in that area. Works great!

I put mine in a 36x36 shop with 10ft ceiling that is well insulated. It has been down to 40degrees so far and heater work great. These heaters require 240 volt 30 amp circuit. I would install one now and try it knowing I may need another. The are quality American made heater.

My guess is it would, take a while to heat, but I'd think it will. My old heater worked better but this one is OK.

Good Morning...I am now following up with real answers. It was cold this morning for the first time this fall in our home and I set up the Lasko #5775 Heater. There will be absolutely no danger getting burned. After having it on for 30 min in my bath (by the way is bigger than I thought, a 10 X 10 room), the room was nicely warm and the heater to touch was barely warm. It really has been a great little heater and I still give it 5 stars!!! Have a wonderful day!!!

Same square footage as yours. This heater puts out only a mild heat that will dissipate quickly in bigger rooms, with possibly large or multiple windows. The smaller the space the better it works. It struggled to keep up a satisfactory temp in a space the size of ours. High ceilings probably didn't help my situation either. I placed mine in a bit smaller room and it works wonderfully.

This heater will heat that size room but the heater needs a large amount of oxygen. You should use this heater on a screen porch or out side to be safe. They are great heaters.

This will most definitely heat a room this size. It will simply shut down when the room is at temp so no worries about overkill. We are heating a 400 sq foot space easily.

I would contact the Lasko company. Mine has given me zero problems, but there are a lot of safety features on the heater. It will shut itself off if any of these problems arise. Sorry, that's all I can suggest.

I agree that the specs are confusing. In purchasing mine I went with the advice of several friends that owned similar heaters. they told me that theirs were heating approx. 2/3 of the sq. footage stated in the ads. I found this to be quite accurate. Other than that I am very pleased with my heater. Hope this helps!
