We ordered two of these for Thanksgiving. One arrived dented and then is took them three weeks and more than 20 phone calls and four attempts to get them to collect and replace it. (They did not tell Fedex they needed two shipping slips for the two boxes it comes in - we got to know our Fedex man pretty well though) When the second one finally arrived the day before we left for xmas vacation, it would not ignite. And as we were not able to return home to open it and discover this for another two weeks, we were not able to make their 1 week deadline to report a faulty product. The one that works, is great. The company is completely unfocussed on its customers and has serious issues with accountability.
Please dont bother to deal with them.

When looking for a Patio Heater, we were told that Endless Summer was the best. We found the best price on Amazon.com. It arrived in a couple of days. The directions were easy to follow in putting it together. We are enjoying spending evenings outside on our pation with our new heater!
With average rivals, this unit might be the best this industry has to offer

We could not find a compelling case to buy any patio heater model from any company at any price due to the very average ratings and highly variable reviews. It wasnt until we read a comment from another brand/model where the owners talked about their unit tipping over and getting damaged. We then had a new critical criteria to look for: weight.
Pro:
-Weighs in at 96 pounds (shipping weight, no tank), almost 2x heavier than the lightest model we saw, 25 pounds heavier than the next best
-Took only about an hour to assemble (note: you only have to do it once)
-Large and nice looking
-Stainless steel body
-Hardware very cleverly packaged and labeled (thank you!)
-Includes allen wrench for tightening the set screws
-Throws heat well, 40,000 BTU (I cook steak on my gas grill which is 25,000 BTU)
-Variable temperature via the burner knob
-Electronic igniter (comes with one AA battery)
Con:
-Additional tools not listed are needed (13mm wrench, level and/or t-square)
-Assembly requires very level surface, would have been good to know before I started assembly
-Some dents and bent parts (brackets) that required some creativity to fix
-The mysterious clip orientation needed in Step 2 is not properly shown until Step 10
-Does not come with the wheels, must be purchased separately
-One of the six set screws was loose in the packaging... almost lost/thrown away
-Made in China
-Price
Neutral:
-A cover is available, but sold separately
-Tools used/needed: philips screwdriver, 7/16" crescent, 7/16" socket, 9/16" crescent, 9/16" socket, 13mm crescent, pliers (to straighten bent elements), four 16" long 2"x4" pieces of wood (see tip #1 and #2 below), allen wrench (included), step stool (see tip #3)
-Tip #1: Avoid laying unit on its side... instructions say to do this several times. I used wood to improve access to the bottom screws in steps 1 and 2 by raising the unit up off the floor to avoid laying on its side in these steps.
-Tip #2: I used the wood again to hold up the "shroud cover" so that I could manage attaching the gas line quick disconnect in Step #8, and also in Step #10 to give me access to tightening the gas clip that secures the gas line (clip keeps line from rattling)
-Tip #3: Step #9 says to lay the unit on its side... no way! I used a step stool to access the nut caps that attach and secure the top shroud/dome.
-Tip #4: Back out the 6 set screws some before you begin Step #7 (trust me)
-Tip #5: Run for the first time in a well ventilated area to burn off any material stuck to the unit
Bottom line: Recommended, however mainly on looks and weight and considering the weak competition.
