How well do the Eden Pure infrared heaters work?

Mostly, I'm interested in how warm they are, how safe they are, and how much they tend to lower your heating bill. I want to know if they are worth the investment.

I am only interested in the Eden Pure brand. I am not interested in the knock-off brands you usually see in retail stores, or the Amish heaters. I already know these are all junk and not worth buying. I have heard nothing good about these rip-off heaters, but I have heard several people who have owned Eden Pures say good things about them, and my (limited) understanding as to how they work makes sense to me, and seems to explain why the knock-offs don't work as well. So now I'm just interested in hearing more peoples' experiences.

And if you answer, please include the following info:

Do you actually own (or have you actually owned) an Eden Pure?

What other heating systems does your home use? (Gas furnace, heat pump, ect;)

What kind of climate do you live in (naming a state, province, country, or region will do), and how cold do your winters get?

Is your home well insulated?

What was your heating bill without and with the Eden Pure?

Any additional relevant information would be great too. Links and references are welcome. And if you have any technical information, statistics (with reference to the source), etc; it would be great. Thanks for any info in advance, and God bless!

    Because of the cost involved in these heaters and information I found doing research on them, I decided NOT to purchase one of these units. I recommending looking up customer reviews on sites like Amazon.com that sell these heaters. If you go to You Tube and do a search on Edenpure heaters you will find a lot of videos (mostly negative) about the heaters. Some people complain that they do not work or last any longer than a regular space heater. Most people indicate that they DO NOT save you money. Yes they save money on the gas or propane bill, but cost the same to run by electricity as any space heater, so you might pay quite a bit more on the electricity.

    Even the people reviewing to the negative admit that they like the features that the heater stays cool to the touch, and that the air coming out of it is not hot enough to burn like many space heaters.

    On review I read even stated that the company does not claim that it costs less to run, just that it will reduce your gas or propane bills. Most also said that it was rather inefficient in heating a room. The air doesn't distribute like the company says it will.

    The first models that came out were great heaters worth the money, but now the current models are not. They are a waste of money.
