This is a great heater. The legs fold under for storage. The heater throws up to 3000 BTU's of heat on the highest setting which may not seem like a lot, but in a tent it's plenty. Some of you using smaller tents might find it a little difficult to set it up with enough clearance so as not to touch anything, but with my 10'x12' tent I don't have that issue.
The cost for this heater is anywhere from $50-$80 depending on where and when you buy. I paid $69 at Dick's Sporting Goods last fall. I just looked now and it's $49, but it's also not camping season. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1901165&cp=&sr=1&origkw=blackcat+heater&kw=blackcat+heater&parentPage=search&searchId=19988560031

I've got the little brother to that heater and it works pretty good in my two man tent. They seel them at K-mart also.

I also have the (little brother) "Sport Cat" and it works great, the only thing is, I wish you could adjust the heat, in my two man tent it can get pretty warm at times even with the little coleman magnetic fan running, other than that I wouldn't be without it.
