 Space saving and quieter than I expected |

The fan comes in three pieces and a couple screws. The base is made up of two semicircles that snap together around the power cord which comes out of the bottom of the fan unit. The base screws into the fan to hold everything together. It does wobble a bit when you touch it, but it stands up just fine on its own.
There's an indentation on the back of the fan near the top which acts as a handle. One big plus is how easy this fan is to move and reposition compared to a regular top-heavy floor-standing fan.
To me, it sounds about as loud as any normal oscillating fan, but it probably moves a little less air. It's also pretty short compared to a tall oscillating fan. If you place it against a door, it comes up to about the height of the door knob (see my picture in the gallery above). It rotates less than 90 degrees, probably about 70 degrees.
When I first started up the fan, there was a slight rattling noise, but it went away after the fan picked up speed and now I don't hear it at all anymore. Aside from that, I haven't heard any other odd noises from this fan.
I've been using this fan for about 10 hours a day for the past few weeks without problems. I usually keep it on the lowest speed, oscillating all night, positioned about 3 feet away from the foot of my bed. It pushes enough air to actually make me cold after just a few minutes.
Overall, it's a great buy, although I thought it was a bit pricey.
Edit: I've had this fan for over a year now, and it's still going strong. Every once in a while, I'll get a light rattling noise from it that goes away on its own after a few minutes. |
GREAT FAN

| I LIKED THIS FAN SO MUCH THAT I HAVE FIVE OF THEM. I HAVE ONE IN MY OFFICE, TWO AT MY LAKE CABIN AND TWO AT HOME. WELL WORTH THE MONEY AND VERY QUIET. TO ASSEMBLE, YOU ONLY NEED TO SCREW IN THREE SCREWS. |
This fan is a bargain

| I'm thrilled with this purchase. The fan sits inconspicuously in the corner, unlike my big standing fan that draws attention to itself by its sheer size. Also unlike my big fan, this one is not prone to tipping over because it's not top heavy. The best part is how quiet it is. It's nearly silent on the lowest setting, and I can hardly hear it when the TV is on. The higher settings are louder, but still much less so than other fans I own. Free shipping is icing on the cake. |
Cool real Cool!!!

| Paid 30 bucks worth a lot more. It cools my 22 x 13 living room on low. The air conditioning kicks on less now. Yes it is January and I have my AC on,because I live in Florida. It is quiet and blows better than my old gigantic fan on a stand, or dirt collector that is. It is loud on high, but no more than any other I have owned and a little noise for a lot of cool air is worth it. BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Great tower fan

| I absolutely love this fan. I agree with the reviewer who describes this fan absolutely perfectly. I recommend this product if anyone is on the look out for a quiet fan at a reasonable price and also looking to save some money on their electricity bill during summer. |
