nice little heater. you can buy this new for 28$ at the evil empire.

I purchased this heater to use in a hunters blind. Superb. Does exactly what I needed it to do. Keeps me quite toasty. The smell people who purchase this refer to isnt that bad. I get the same smell from every heater I turn on after its been off awhile. Goes away quickly. Lights fast and easily. Turn it on, count to ten, then ignite it. First try every time. Also purchased the bag to carry it. It was worth the $15 I got it for. Holds two bottles too. Great products at great prices from great manufacturers. Coleman Sportcat is the best.

AS a hand warmer or just something to be close to you, this will work well. But it did not seem to help warm our tent by itself. I think if it is used with a second heater for tent heating, you may get better results. However I would recommend the larger heater made by Coleman if tent heating is what you are after and you have a larger area to warm. Otherwise, well built and does what it is supposed to, provide general warmth. I am keeping this around just because you never know when it will come in handy...

This Coleman heater is amazing. It did a great job of heating our pop-up camper. I really like the self lighting feature. If it lasts like my other Coleman gear I'll enjoy it for a long time.

This little heater is very nice. It is a lower output unit, so it has its limitations its power, but that is clearly noted in the description. I wanted a small heater that was lightweight enough that I could put it in my hiking pack for very cold nights to deal with the bitter cold. It can heat a moderate size tent well enough. I am very pleased. I agree with the advice of breaking it in and burning off the initial smell. It is an interesting smell at first.
