Sylvane's website lists in-stock where they can guarantee expedited shipping. Other websites could not guarantee delivery on time (like maybe they list 3rd party items?) A good outdoor heater for sheltered area from the wind. You can feel the warmth about 3 feet away but is probably not significant enough in a windy situation. We even use it non-oscillating in a large bathroom during the winter as the silent heat is calming. Easy to assemble base, handle doesn't get hot. You have to be careful about keeping items away if oscillating, but ok if not oscillating. Oscillation only swivels about 90 degrees.
