Points
On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.4 stars. In some cases, they criticise the fact that it does not provide enough heating power. On the other hand, the elegant and functional design and the high heating power are emphasised positively. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the robust and easy-to-use radiant heater is well received by customers. However, consumer criticism of the gas heater’s low heat output was not justified.
Prices of up to €613.73 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very favourable products are available from as little as € 149.95 . The Juskys gas heater is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €149.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
