It is a bit on the loud side, but if you need to get air moving it's a great fan (cheap too). We usually use it in the window to pull in cool outside air to cool the house off faster when it's cooler outside than inside.

No frills fan but it's fairly quiet especially on low or medium. On high the noise level is distracting but it really puts out. For $20 its worth the price

Worked better than double window fan we first bought. Glad we saw someone walking out of Best Buy with this fan, quickly returned the other fan. Fit in window better, more power, and better price. Win, win, win.

Decent fan. A little noisy. Could be better, but for $12 you can't beat it. I need another one for my other room.

We bought this fan to replace the exact same model. The pervious fan was a few years old & needed to be replaced. We use it to circulate the a/c to other parts of the house. We would buy another one again when this one gets old.

Inexpensive fan, works but is flimsy

This fan works so far. It has three speeds, runs quietly and sort-of does the job. It is a cheap, no-frills fan, barely acceptable by any standards.
What you'd normally expect to see on a box fan of this nature is a rotary switch on top, a collapsable handle, a cord near the bottom, and a steel brace inside for the motor. This type of design has worked for the past 25 years. What you get here is a plastic bladed fan, a cord that plugs directly into the back of the motor, a rotary switch on the back and recessed in the motor area, (you can't see what you're doing, you have to feel for the control) and no handle on top other than a hand grip that is built in to the back grill. It's about the most minimal fan I have ever used. The thickness of the materials is also thinner than most and it feels wobbly. The feet are simple plastic tabs that snap into the bottom of the frame. They are meant to keep the fan from falling backwards.
I ordered this fan at the store over their internet feed since they were out. It cost less than $20, and I'm using this fan to exhaust hot air out of the garage when cars are brought inside. Had I seen this fan up close, out of its box and able to examine it, I might have tried to find something better. It's shocking what our choices are today for inexpensive hardware like this. It's yet another "use it today, and throw it away" product -- the reason that "made in China" has the same connotation that "made in Japan" had back in the 50s. It's perhaps worse.

I got it on sale for 10 buxx. It is pretty amazing. It has three speeds witht he highest being pretty good. My room is always hot in AZ and this thing actually makes me feel "cold". That never happens. Awesome fan.

This fan is good, but not great. It's not as powerful as I thought it would be or as sturdy. Good for a quick fix situation.
