The thermostats seem OK. You have to mess with them a bit to figure out where they need to be to keep your room where you want it. They seem to have a wierd arrangement with a couple of switches so you sort of have to choose a range to work within (kinda hi med lo). This isn't the most convenient arrangement. If your temps drop a lot for example your room might not get enough heat if you left the heater in the low position, etc. If you actually has an extra externam thermostat you could put that on high and use the external one, that would bypass the funky switches, which are made to save on electricity.
I used them two years ago. I live in Northern CA where it barely gets down to freezing, and that heater was insufficient in my room. My room has two walls that are outside walls and I have a double glass patio type door. Even with two of those heaters running in my room it wasn't enough, so I made different arrangements.
Good luck
