Sure to Last Quality item for a great price. Living in the Southwest, this is sure to last for many, many years. April 29, 2011

Broan 157 Heater Fan Excellent bathroom heater fan if you do not have a pre-installed vented fan. All you need is an junction box in the ceiling and you are good to go. December 4, 2010

I have look far and wide for heaters for the bathrooms. These are great. My electrician said that his company could not find heaters like these. I gave him your information. He is going to share it with his boss and they will be ordering some in the future. Thank you again. August 3, 2010

Good Product The heater was easy to install and it worked very well...just what I had expected. Shopping with Ventdirect was easy and they were prompt with the delivery. January 17, 2010

Good buy! Easy to install and works as advertised. Also purchased wall switch, however, it was a waste of money. We didn't need it. We used the existing wall switch from the broken ceiling heater that we were replacing. November 29, 2009

No Problem My son found this product for me and installed it himself. It works as expected replacing a unit that was installed in 1978. Thanks for having a replacement that was not available on the retail market. December 14, 2007
