Rated 2 out of 5 by JS60 Heater is a bust!
Like many other reviewers, I've had issues with the heating element failing. I am on my fourth element in two years! The heater fan works fine & I checked to make certain things weren't dirty or airflow restricted.
Very frustrating as the HEATER feature was the primary reason we bought this model & cut a larger hole in the ceiling. This model is too expensive to have this recurring failure. Broan/NuTone should think about reviewing the heater element spec / thermal fuse as there is obviously a problem with it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by PatK Great product for my log cabin bathroom.
within one week after installing the heater elements quit. I was extremely pleased when I was able to receive a replacement. Thank you, Maybe you could design it with replaceable fuses or resettable overloads.

I bought two - one was excellent, lived up to expectations. The other required a motor replacement within 2 months. Replacement turned loud noisy within 6 months of replacement.

Rated 3 out of 5 by wyomcn Heater motor has gone out twice in a year and a half
We love the heater,fan, light combo, but the heater motor keeps going out in a short time. That is disappoingint especially for the cost of replacement.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Coldfeet Good product -- wish heater were a bit more powerful.
I purchased two of these to replace older vent fans in two existing bathrooms. The unit performs very well in the smaller of the two bathrooms; however, in the larger bath, it does not put out enough heat for the larger space. The small heater vent through which the heat flows allows you to direct the heat, but I think something that would allow greater diffusion of the heat would allow it to perform better. I admit that the large bath is very large (12' x 12' with 8' ceilings); however, the unit is placed right outside the shower, but the directional vent only allows heat to flow in a very small area that is not adequate for the room. I am certainly pleased to have heat in the baths now--just keep in mind the size of your bathroom.

I am very pleased with the performance of this unit. I will definitely be looking for this brand when shopping for future needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jimu Perfect combination for bathroom
The Broan heater/vent/light unit is just perfect for my bath. Has heat when you need it. Light is bright enouth to light up a large bathroom. And the exhaust at 100 cfm's has the capacity to remove the steam easily. I installed it myself with no problem.
