What We Liked

Because it runs on LP gas, there is no need for an outlet to be on hand which means that it can be used virtually anywhere, safety precautions permitted. - Shut-off Valve
The shut-off valve prevents dangerous emissions from accidental non-ignition fuel discharge. - Can Be Used As A Primary And Secondary Source
If you do not want to use the heater as your primary source, you can run it at a lower setting. If you want to use it for your primary heat source you can turn it to 3000 BTU's. - Wall Mountable
Wall mountable heaters are convenient because they aren't in the middle of the floor taking up space.
What We Didn't Like
- Hot To Touch
A heater that is hot to touch can be unsafe around children. If you mount it high enough, it will stay out of the way of little hands. - Takes A While TO Heat
Although this heater does put out a nice amount of heat, it does take a while to warm the area up.
Conclusion
The Camco Olympian Wave Gas Heater is a great heater to have if you ever want to go camping without the hassle of a battery operated or electric heater.
