The product, in the report: Space heater
We purchased a Bionaire heater. We used it sparingly to heat our bedroom. We noticed a steamy burning smell before we fell asleep. Then noticed that the unit was burning and had sparks emitting. Luckily it was not close to other objects and we were able to turn it off in time. I’ve read other reviews and people have had fires from this device. It costs $70 and only lasts thru several uses. They should not be allowed to sell this.
