Cons - the fan made a screeching noise when it turned it on for the third night. Was afraid it was the fan bearings but changed the batteries just in case. Noise went away. Fourth night when I tried turning it on it wouldn't stop screeching. Tried the AC adapter for S&G, no luck. Fan bearings were shot. Ran the heater the last three nights without the fan on and had noticeably more cold areas in the tent - especially down low. Currently working with support to get a new fan assembly. Hopefully they come thought.
Summary - Great heater for small spaces. Fan might be an issue for extended use and is pretty anemic even when it is working. Use the large tank hose with the quick disconnect for long term use or high heat output. Overall a great thing to have when you need more heat and a circulation fan as compared to the Hunter or Portable versions.
12/14/22 Update - contacted support and they responded quickly and more than willing to help. I provided my serial number and they sent me a new back panel with integral fan. 4 screws and the panels were swapped out. Fan isn't the best quality but hopefully the replacement lasts a bit longer.
