- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2017I have one in our Subaru and it works great, but we lost the cord. I had to get the entire unit to replace the cord. Oh well, I guess I now have a spare.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2024I have installed several of these over the last few decades and thankfully they remain high quality. Easy to install without leaks.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2016Worked well for two weeks, then began to fail. After a month was completely dead. Did a continuity test on it, and it was totally open (no resistance). Hopefully I just got the one in a thousand that broke quickly. Was very easy to instal, though..
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2023I installed this block heater on my 2004 Subaru Impreza outback sport, EJ25 motor. Removed the freeze plug from right behind the water pump thermostat housing, on the bottom of the motor. Works like a champ in -30 temperatures in Alaska.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2016Works great, typically last me 3 years in AK. Try to avoid over 50% glycol concentration as this seems to make them fail faster.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2017Easy install on a 1999 Subaru Legacy 2.5l engine. Gets the engine nice and warm in about an hour. Just get a heavy-duty timer and set it to warm the engine up an hour before you start your commute. No need to waste power all night long.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2020Didn’t fit 2018 Subaru Impreza as stated. The body hit the casting on the engine and protruded too far to plug in.
Overall I like Zerostart products and this would be no exception had it worked for my application as stated.

5.0 out of 5 stars it worked!
works and perfectly fit for my forester 2004 jdm !
thanks!
- Richard KovachReviewed in Canada on March 3, 2024
3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite compatible
Listed as compatible with my 2006 Outback. It is mostly, but what wasn’t obvious until reinstalling the exhaust system is that the cord will contact the very hot exhaust manifold unless it is kinked strongly 90 degrees - which is always bad for wire. And even then it is quite close to the hot manifold. Having a badly kinked cord so close to the hot manifold is a serious risk of electrical shorts and fire. It really should be supplied with the cord that has the right-angle plug on the end.
- CarlaReviewed in Canada on March 11, 2021
5.0 out of 5 stars Fits and works
