I'm a fan!
Fans are more expensive, and products are substandard to say the least, not lasting long cheaply made, and vibrate right off the table and make so much more noise than they used to, I've bought all (holmes,lasko,cool master etc.) This is my first mainstays fan, and immediately you see the quality of how it's made in comparison to others priced the same, I purchased because of the review's others took the time to share, mostly stating the quality, my concern with any fan, is how long will it last, but this runs nice and is sturdy, I'll have to try their other products for sure.

Don't buy this
it's horrible, you turn it on and the blades catch on the backside on the control knob and is loud clicking non stop. you cant even use it and there's no way to fix it because you obviously can't take the knob off. returning it and getting a better brand

    best decision I ever made
    This fan is awesome, it blows like a air conditioner. I live with my dad because I help take care of him and he keeps the heat high being that he is sick. And this fan is a life saver

    Powerful but noisy!
    Moves a LOT of air, the lowest speed is equivalent to the highest speed on other fans! However, it is also equal in volume... quite loud even on the lowest setting!

    Too loud for me. Moves air OK.
    It moves air OK. It is pretty. I will not use it as intended because it is very loud on low setting. IMneverHO it is a design/manufacturing flaw. The whole front and back plastic grille looks like it was designed to make a lot of turbulent noise. Folks wanting it for white noise can keep it in the basement! I have an old Lasko that is getting a bit loud, this was intrended to be an improvement. It is a lot louder. New Laskos are louder than my old Lasko and this one is louder than a new Lasko. (this is not a new quest that I am on) It moves the air OK, did I mention that? :-)

    I give it 10/10 fan definitely exceeded my expectations. Better than the one I had which was a huge upgrade. Definitely will be buying a third one for the spare bedroom.

    Very Satisfied, bought a 2nd one, No Problems
    Been using for almost a month now, works great. I've headed the warnings about not letting it fall over because it will stop working. That said, I've had no problems with it. There doesn't seem to be a Big difference between medium speed and high speed, as there is between Low

    Don't waist the extra couple bucks.
    I wouldn't waste my money on these again. yes they move the air really well that's about the only thing it might do better than the lasco one's. these are all plastic only thing on them thats metal is the motor and two thin bars in the back. be very careful not to bump it to hard because they have the blade so thin it has no rigidity and will at minimum get caught behind motor mount. in my case it ripped a whole fan blade off and a section of the hub. wasn't to thrilled with the product. wish i would have saved a couple bucks for the old trusty but these colors do pop thogh. oh and do not leave it proping open a window because it will deform the plastic outer piece and make it to where the rotating attached legs won't turn to the stand alone setting. all in all i would definitely look elsewhere next time.

    essential air comfort, sound control
    I've used this brand of fan for years. they are dependable and take a lot of abuse like on construction sites and yet they keep on working. even though I have air conditioning, by using the fan in the bedroom, the extra movement of air drops the temperature by another 10 degrees, which I love. the gentle hum of the motor is a comfortable steady sound machine canceling out most jarring noises. if the neighbors are noisy, I just turn the fan on high. I especially enjoy the fun colors! and of course my daughter wanted a purple fan too! plus it makes her life in the dorm, and now her apartment easier to take, making extraneous noises a non-issue even beyond the cooling air movement.
