Dyna-Glo DGPH202SS 48,000 BTU Stainless Steel Patio Heater

Loving this heater - it makes sitting outside on the chillier summer nights so pleasant - extending our summer by a month!

The Dyna-Glo stainless propane heater has not disappointed. Was easier than expected to put together, the only hard part was the odd angle in getting the very handy wheels that attach at the bottom so that it can be rolled around easily...for us that required two people. Other than that it was easily assembled and we are not whiz kids at that sort of thing. We have a large wooden deck and it really puts out a great amount of heat...have just used it for the lounging portion ( so only on low) have no doubt it would heat the entire deck. It is great looking and seems very high quality. Most happy with our purchase.

I would like to give this device 4 and 1/2 stars. It works great and provides the warmth as advertised. I've had other, less expensive devices and this one is much better. It's easy to ignite, the warmth is evenly distributed and everything is sturdy.So why not 5 stars? That's because it's not easy to assemble. Well, all of these devices are probably difficult but this has very sharp edges on the top reflector. It's easy to cut yourself when putting together the three rather large components of the reflector. It seems that some additional thought on how to make a reflector that is easy to assemble would have been a good investment by this company.So does that deserve penalizing them a full star? Couldn't they get a 5 star review with an explanation about the reflector? The answer is no and that's because of their customer service.Early in my use of this patio heater I had an important question about its safety and operation. I called customer service. They answered the call promptly but it soon became clear that the customer service representative knew nothing about this product. They had to consult a manual (fine) but they were unfamiliar with the manual and they hemmed and hawed about what I should do with respect to my issue. It seems that if you are going to provide technical support you should be familiar with the product.I am not unhappy with this product and I would buy it again. Just a little bit better customer support and safer assembly and this patio heater would earn 5 stars.

I bought 2 to help extend outdoor social distancing time further into the cold weather. Very easy to assemble by someone who has hardly ever assembled anything. Looks great. No scratches. Easy to move to different locations. The heat is fabulous - enjoy the flexibility to change the intensity. One lights perfectly but the other has not from the beginning. (We hear the igniter clicking but the pilot doesn't light. We light it manually.) Otherwise, I would have given a 5 star rating. Tip for new buyers - the first time you light it (maybe more often) you must turn the control to pilot and continue to depress it for 2 minutes to release the air before depressing the ignitor (or manually using a bbq lighter) to light the pilot. I noticed several customers have had similar trouble. It seems it is time for Dyna-Glo to fix that and earn more 5 star ratings. I would be thankful to receive a new one.

It's a piece of cake to assemble. All the parts fit nicely together. It looks very nice and gives off a ton of heat. Couldn't be happier.
