Thermacell E55 Rechargeable Mosquito Repeller, Highly Effective Rechargeable Mosquito Repellent

This item uses an outdated charging cable and does not hold a charge well. When attempting to return the item, the seller refused to provide collection and instead sent lengthy and complicated return instructions, eventually leading to the return window expiring.

I like the product and found it to be effective against mosquitoes. The problem is that it is not possible to buy refills and is therefore a complete waste of money.

This misquotes repplent did absolutely nothing—mosquitoes were still everywhere. No noticeable effect at all. I regret buying it and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Honestly useless I put it for an hour. I sit next to it and I got 100 bites not worth it

The refills are so tiny they don’t last very long. Can’t find the refills for sale on Amazon.ae yet the machine itself was sold through this platform. I was still bitten by mosquitoes while sitting next to the machine.

I did not buy the device through Amazon. I just wanted to warn people. I spent almost 100 dollars on the device and refills. I am using it in Dubai and the mosquitos are literally dancing around it. That 25 feet shield thing is a complete lie. Don't waste your money.

Muy eficiente, lo use dos veces y ninguna picadura tuvimos, pero NO DURA mucho el cartucho que viene, solo duró como 12 hr

****Update*** I still love this thing. Here is what I have learned since my initial purchase: *Use up those cartridges at the end of the year. I stored mine with a partially used cartridge but it didn't work as well in the spring. Popping in a new one made a big difference. *The cartridges are all the same size. They are filled according to the number of "burn" hours. When you get one that looks half empty it's because you didn't buy one with the extended hours. *Don't expect instantaneous results. You absolutely must allow the unit to warm up before using it. 10-15 minutes will do it. *Don't forget to turn it off or you waste some expensive formula - lesson learned there. *Make a habit of bringing it inside and charging it OR make sure to have a charged backup on hand so you never have to go without. It sucks when it shuts off right after you've settled in. (I'm about to get another unit). *Yes it works on Salt Marsh mosquitos though they did get a couple of ankle bites in at the picnic table. Not sure if the top of the table inhibited the coverage of the protection but considering I would typically end up with at least a half dozen welts (sans spray) it's still a win. Original review: I understood when I bought this, that it needs to warm up, you will see a tiny plume of "smoke" occasionally, and it may not actually cover a 20 foot radius, especially on a breezy day. That said, this little wonder actually works. Thanks to our mild winter the mosquitos are very plentiful this spring. I am tired of wearing bug spray and burning incense & candles to keep them at bay. Tonight I really had the opportunity to test this thing. I turned it on for a few minutes before settling in on my southern New England porch. While I see bugs flying around me, none have landed. I have been out here for about 2 hours around dusk without a single bite! I am going to get another as a back up and stock up on refills. With a trip to the Maine shore planned for this summer I'll putting these bad boys to the test against the vicious salt marsh mosquitos. Can't wait to sit outside by the firepit without needing bug spray.

The product wasn't packaged properly. The refill unit had leaked into its plastic bag and absorbed into the cardboard box. Not only do I have less repellant, but metofluthrin is toxic and not supposed to be handled.

Bought this ahead of Memorial Day weekend with the kids' summer game schedule in mind. The weekend was the first real test and it earned its place in the rotation. We were outside for extended stretches and the Thermacell did what it advertises. No noticeable mosquito pressure in the zone it covers - which, for where we live this time of year, is meaningful. WHAT WORKS - It just works. Turn it on, give it a few minutes, the area becomes mosquito-quiet. No smoke, no citronella smell, no open flame to keep an eye on with kids running around. - Rechargeable is the right design choice. Not having to find batteries or fuel canisters every time you want to use it makes it actually usable, not aspirational. - Quiet. You forget it is running. - The portability is the part I am most excited about. Kids' football, baseball, and outdoor practices are exactly where I want this on the sidelines. No flame, no spray, just set it next to the chair and forget about it. WHAT DOES NOT - One weekend is not enough time to fully grade it. Memorial Day was the test. I will know more after a full summer of game-day use, and I will update this review if anything changes - durability of the unit, refill costs, whether the 20-foot zone holds up as advertised across longer sessions. - The 20-foot zone is a defined area, not a backyard-wide solution. If you have a large open space and people spread across it, you will want more than one. For a patio, a tailgate area, or a sideline chair cluster, the size is right. WHO IT IS FOR Anyone with kids in summer outdoor sports, anyone who hosts on a patio in mosquito country, anyone who has been using citronella candles or spraying everyone down before they sit outside. If you need full-yard protection, you will need more than one unit - this is built for a defined zone where the people are sitting or standing. Five stars based on one weekend of use. Will come back and update after a full summer of game-day testing.

Buena barra protectora para que no se acerquen los mosquitos pero si hace mucho aire no está al 100 de protección También le di 4 porque los repuestos son algo caros
