It helps a lot in winter! Is perfect and works perfectly🫶

I was looking for a heater for my kids pool since everything is closed this summer and decided to go with this submersable 1500 Watt one. **Disclaimer** This is obviously not ment for this so don't be an idiot and melt a hole in the bottom of your pool or hurt your children. Never have it in the pool when your kids are around.I fastened it to the bottom of a clay saucer drilled a hole and ran threaded rod through it to act as an anchor. This made it very sturdy. I filled the pool to the line about 300 gallons and plugged it in the thermometer had a reading of 68 degrees. after it was plugged in for 2 hours it rose up to 73 degrees. This was all on a cloudy day with an air temperature of 70 degrees.As for power comsumption I pay .12cents per kWh so if I ran this in the morning for 5 hours it would only cost me 90 cents and I would get about a 10 degree heat rise in the temperature of the pool.Overall i'm super happy with the initial results and look forward to using it.

Using for warming up hot water for bath in NY winter time. It works well but you need timer to keep good temperature. This is powerful.

2 year update: A must-have at any barn, farm, or ranch. We had a freeze in early 2024, with 60 hours of 17 degrees. I put this in the large horse trough, and it kept the water just warm the whole time. Happy, drinking horses. If you try this, periodically check your trough and make sure the temp isn't too hot if you have a smaller trough.Original review: This thing will warm a trough of water very nicely. I personally don't think I'd leave it on all night unattended, however. This is different from a deicer, use this to warm water to the desired temp. In a trough, mine doesn't get very hot, just good and warm. I accidentally left it on all day once. It was in an old, empty one of those big protein tubs for cattle, maybe 35 gallons or so. Had some nice warm water that was steaming a bit at the end of the day. I think every barn should have at least 1 on hand.

The description implies that this is heater will heat the water in a 5 gallon bucket very quickly, in a matter of minutes.I put 5 gallons into a HD (orange) bucket, measured the temperature at 68 degrees F., then put this immersion heater in and set a timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the water temperature was 88 degrees F. The instructions that came with it said nothing of a 5 gallon bucket, it referred to a 1 gallon bucket. So, perhaps, you might get an increase of 100 degrees in 10 minutes if you were only heating 1 gallon.For that matter, I'd imagine it would heat a tablespoon of water very rapidly :-)Returned as useless.

This immersion heater worked well for the first few months—heated water quickly and was easy to use. However, after about four months, it suddenly stopped working. I expected it to last longer, especially with light use. While it was great while it lasted, durability could be improved. If you need a temporary or occasional-use heater, it’s a good option, but don’t expect long-term reliability. Would give five stars if it lasted longer!

Over a year now and it's perfect. Highly recommend for tile installers
