we have one similar to the towsure one, very good, we camped in april and it was freezing, that little heater took the chill off nicely i dont think we would have stayed the night if we didnt have it.

 

the towsure one look smuch prettier and better made than mine tho

Yes, we have one too.  Really pleased with it.  I think they've finished making them now though.  We use it occasionally in ther awning.  Personally I'd go for electric over gas any day for a heater in an awning/tent.  Once saw a nasty fire at Conkers caused by a gas heater.  I'm not saying they are not safe, but I reckon there is more chance of an accident with gas.  What do you think.
