If you getting a big buddy, , it can drain 2 bottles in 2-3 hours. that's about $10 depending where you get bottles.

I use a thing like this https://www.amazon.com/DozyAnt-Un...ljaz10cnVl and refill my bottles outside for savings.

It's not for everyone, the safety patrol will be here any minute to wring their hands about people doing this and being unsafe. Housecat type guys might want to just buy the propane bottles at Target and have a frappe.
They do sell an adapter for the 20lb tanks.
Sams club has the big buddy with the fan, plus 5 foot hose to hook up to 20lb tank for $149. Better deal

Quote from RBHID :
At least Amazon CS is usually fantastic. I had ordered one for Christmas and the package arrived damaged. I wanted to exchange it, but had to go through customer services. In typical Amazon fashion they couldn't exchange it, but told me to keep it and gave me a full refund. I'll still never understand their policies, but works for me.
I would think they are more like the middle man. This item is shipped and sold by 3rd party, so if you got a defective one and contacted Amazon CS they most likely are just issuing a charge back on the vendor as part of the platform usage policy. No loss/gain to Amazon directly, at least not for the charge back of full amount of the product.

Is it worth it to get the one with the fan?

i say no; i have the one with the fan and one rare occasion when i am using it inside a garage the fan makes a huge difference. you can buy aftermarket doodads that aren't as nice but you'll spend more.

sam's has the one with the fan, 20lb tank adapter, and an a/c adapter for fan use for 150, i think that total package is better

The Dyna Glow is a better deal.

dyna glow is of a significantly lighter construction (at least compared to the sam's club big buddy). all plastics are thinner, the heat grill looks the same but is much thinner gauge, even the handle is floppy; in comparison

Absolutely! Wife got me the gander mountain one.

I am using it for Little league registrations today since it's like 10 degrees out here and we have no heat in our building. It will get us toasty in the room. Be sure to get the 20lb line adapter directly from the company. Don't buy a third part one. If you buy the right one you won't need to buy a separate filter for the line.

I have this hose to connect to a 20lb tank. It doesn't require inline filters since it has a regulator and has a quick connect fitting that attaches to the Big Buddy heater.

Also cheaper than the Mr Heater branded hose.

Also for the worriers, Wear gloves, I've frozen skin pretty quick when I got a little over flow on my finger. But lesson learned and back in business in no time.

Pro Level refillers :get the little hemostat pliers and open the check value to let more propane in when you are filling the bottles. I do all of this outside on a picnic table. Don't do it inside unless you want to be a crispy critter like the Coffee Shop Gal from above. laugh out loudlaugh out loudlaugh out loud
Wow, real funny. Why would you laugh about this?
