    The product, in the report: Seabreeze heater model SF12ST 1500 watt off the wall bed/bathroom heater

    I purchased a space heater in April 2016. It is intended for use in the bathroom. I have used it daily for 9 months with no issues. Nothing was near the heater. Last night I turned it on and went to the tub. As I was filling up the tub, I smell smoke. I turned around to see the heater in flames. Thankfully I was in the room or it would have set the whole bathroom on fire.
