I have the sportcat with instastart and it works well.
I can say it is a good handwarmer but at 1500btu/hr it has proven to be too small for my needs as an ice fisherman...In single digit temps it takes too long or does not bring my portable shelter (FT Pro) above freezing.
The product has certainly performed as advertised and cools quickly when shut off as well which is a plus for those who use the unit on-the-go.
For those who need more than a handwarmer or expect warmth in subfreezing temperatures, I strongly advise to upgrade to the ProCat.

If you think this SportCat is truly a "flameless" heater, then youve been fooled, just like I was. Obviously, Coleman does not consider the firey red glow of a match to be a flame. Yes, this is a MATCH LIGHT ONLY appliance, which is not, in my opinion, "flameless" and consequently not safe for in your tent. Dont wait till you open the box to discover this. If you are a Coleman faithful, then youd be much happier shelling out the extra dough for the "luxury" model that includes an ignitor. By the way, in order to warn people of this deception, Amazon.com required a valid credit card from me. So you are now guaranteed I am a verified reviewer!!
