What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing claims coverage up to 300 sq. ft., while customer feedback describes effective use in small rooms and mixed heat output. Treat the coverage figure as a manufacturer claim, not a guarantee of room temperature or heating performance. The remote requires two AAA batteries, not included. The listing describes thermostat auto mode as cycling between high, low and off, while customer feedback says automatic temperature control works only on high. Confirm the behavior and intended room coverage if those details are important.

Customer feedback highlights fast heating and usefulness in small rooms, but experiences vary on heat output, noise and whether the remote is useful. Durability is a concern in the supplied feedback, including reports of units lasting only one winter. These views matter because the listing claims coverage up to 300 sq. ft. and includes thermostat control, but neither claim ensures consistent results in a particular room. The listing's description of automatic temperature control also differs from feedback reporting operation only on high.

Positive themes

Customers describe fast heating and effective use in small rooms.

Negative themes

Some customers report that the heater lasted only one winter.

Mixed feedback

Feedback varies on heat output and noise, with reports ranging from good heat and quiet operation to weak output and noticeable noise.
The remote is appreciated by some and considered ineffective or unnecessary by others.
Thermostat feedback includes reports that automatic temperature control works only on high.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Lasko 5586 include a remote?

Yes. The listed components include a remote control. It requires two AAA batteries, which are not included.

How much area is this heater rated to cover?

The listing states heating coverage of 300 and claims up to 300 sq. ft. Customer feedback describes good performance in small rooms but mixed heat output, so coverage should not be treated as a guaranteed result.

What controls and timer does it have?

The listing specifies two heat settings, an adjustable thermostat, widespread oscillation and an eight-hour timer. The remote is described as controlling those functions.

What should buyers know about its thermostat?

The listing says auto mode switches between high, low and off to maintain a selected temperature. Customer feedback reports that automatic temperature control works only on high, so this behavior is not consistent across the supplied information.
