[info] I bought this in Mexico on a winter trip.  I am the worst when I comes to being cold.  This little space heater is the icon of the extreme measures I will take to stay warm.  It really didn’t do much to keep me warm for the couple of nights and I felt awful after buying it.  I should have brought a few extra clothes and blankets with me, not buy a $30 space heater that uses up lots of electricity.  None of the kids at the orphanage have space heaters.  I was simply being the spoiled American.

I’ve used the space heater a few times in my house, but I don’t feel any better about using it here.  I hope this was a good fundraiser item.
