Been using the Qinux WarmPro in my bedroom for a few evenings now and it works fine for the size of the room. One thing I’m curious about though, does anyone else feel like the air gets a bit heavy if you leave it on for a couple of hours? Maybe it’s just me.

I don’t get that heavy air feeling with mine, but I also don’t run it for more than an hour at a stretch. I’ve left it on overnight once and noticed the room felt warmer than usual when I woke up, almost like it had been on too long. But stuffy? Not really. Could just be your room’s airflow.

Mine gets a bit stale if I leave it running too long, but a quick window crack fixes it.

I’ve noticed the same thing actually. It’s not exactly stuffy but the air does feel warmer and less fresh after a few hours. I usually just run it for shorter bursts and it’s fine.

That heavy air feeling goes away once you crack a window, but I wouldn’t call it stuffy.

I run mine for most of the evening and I get that same heavy feeling. It’s not a dealbreaker, but the air definitely feels less fresh after a couple hours. I just turn it off for a bit when it gets to that point.

I usually run mine for a few hours in the evening and I have not noticed the air feeling heavy or stale. Maybe it depends on how well the room is insulated or how much time you spend in there. I do keep the door slightly open when I use it, so that might make a difference for me.

I haven’t noticed that with mine. I usually leave it running while I’m reading in the evening and the air stays fine. Could be the size of the room or how long you’re running it for.

Haven’t had that problem with mine. I run it in my office for hours at a time and the air stays fine. Could just be your bedroom is smaller and the heat builds up more.

I never get that heavy feeling with mine. I use it in the living room while watching TV for hours and the air stays fine. Maybe it’s more noticeable in a smaller room like a bedroom. I do prefer having it on a lower setting if I’m going to leave it running for a while.

Interesting that you mention that. I actually expected the opposite because I had a different plug-in heater before that really did make the air feel thick after maybe an hour. With the WarmPro I have not gotten that same sensation, even when I leave it on longer than I probably should.

I think the difference for me is that the fan keeps moving air around instead of just radiating heat off one spot. My old one felt like it was just cooking the air directly in front of it, and after a while the room did feel kind of heavy. This one seems to circulate things enough that it just feels like a normal warm room rather than a stuffy one.

Could be related to room size too, I suppose. My bedroom is not huge, so maybe that works in its favor. Or maybe I just run it at a lower setting and that changes things. Either way, I have not had that heavy feeling with this unit, and I was half expecting to based on past experience with similar heaters.

That heavy feeling usually means the room needs a bit of airflow, not that the heater is doing something wrong.

[Emma Ray]

I’ve left mine running for basically the whole evening several nights in a row and never got that heavy feeling. My bedroom is pretty small too. Maybe yours is just a bit too airtight or something.

[Jess Runner]

Alright, that all makes sense. Probably just my room not getting enough air moving around. I’ll live with it.
