Master MH-75T-KFA Kerosene Forced Air Heater with Thermostat, 75,000 BTU

Second one I've thrown out of pure frustration. They light up and run for 10 seconds and shut off. Should've learned my lesson on the first one but I thought I just got a lemon. Can't return and customer service is garbage, they tell you to work on it yourself. There should be a class action lawsuit against this company. I would never buy any of their garbage. Everytime I walk past them in the stores, I get instantly annoyed. Stay away!!!!!

Hi, First, I have to start with that I owned Master 150000btu for 25 years! Never had an issue with it. Bought a new one and could not get it to work, took two 3 weeks to get the replacement part. other than that the thermostat does not work; must leave in the lowest temp position, period and run manually. The replacement cost(?); well just by another heater. Also the plastic fuel cap will swell and you will have a really hard time removing it, and then you will never get it back on!

This is the worst customer service I have ever witnessed. I bought this unit brand new at NAPA.. Took it home and it would not work. Brought it back and was told that Master would not allow return and I must call them. I contacted them and was told to call customer service and they would send me parts and tell me how to repair it. What,?? I did not buy a Brand new heater so I could learn how to repair a heater. I know nothing about heaters and am not about to toy with something that spits fire. Now I have a shiny piece of junk in my garage. All my other reviews are positive. But, spare yourself and buy a different heater.. JUNK

This will be my fourth forced air heater, I have had Remingtons, which worked very well, however since that company went out of business they are hard to find, so I bought a Dyna Glo Delux 80K BTU unit here on Amazon, which continually belched smoke and spewed un-burned fuel all over the floor. Returned it, and ordered a ProCom Portable Multifuel Heater - 80,000-110,000 BTU,, which was even WORSE! I then ran across this unit at a local store and thought wow, this looks exactly like my old Remingtons, let's give it a shot, and VOILA! Finally, a heater that does exactly what it's supposed to do, puts out a lot of heat with no smoke or fuel spitting. Heats up my 3 car garage in short order, so I'm finally very pleased. I should say here that I'm a big Amazon fan, HOWEVER, they are WAY over priced on this particular unit, I got mine at Tractor Supply for $159, which is well over $100 less than the Amazon price. "Just Sayin'..."

Whoever’s responsible for the fuel cap design should hide away. Can barely get the cap off because the main body is 1/2 over the cap. Badly engineered. Something so simple

BOUGHT ONE AT TRACTOR SUPPLY TOOK IT HOME AND IT WORKED GREAT. IT HEATED UP MY BASEMENT IN ABOUT 20 MINUTES. TURNED IT ON THE NEXT DAY AND IT SPIT AND SPUTTERED WENT OUT AND NEVER WORKED AGAIN. TSC GLADLY RETURNED MY MONEY AND SAID I WASNT THE ONLY ONE.

Tractor Supply has this heater for 199.00

Update 10/27/2016I used it the other day for around 8 hours, cycling it on for a half hour then off for the next half hour. It was the first time I used it since last winter. It worked flawless. Im still running kerosene in it but switched to the dyed stuff, because it's available more convenientiemtly.Original review:Bought this at a local big box store last week. I've only used it 4 times for 2-4 hours at a time so I can't give a detailed report on longevity. I can say though that it works great and burns cleaner than any other salamander style heater I've been around. I am running un-dyed kero though and others I've been around were running diesal.It fires up fast and puts out very little fumes on startup. No belch of black smoke, and on shut down its also fairly odorless. In-between it runs great throws alot of heat, I'm using it basically in a open garage that has no door on one side. So it never really heats the place up but whatever I point it at stays warm up to about 12ft in 30degree temps.I'll update this review if I have an issue with the heater down the line, but for now I'm very happy with it.
