    Not very powerful and too fragile. Bumped it and it tipped over, now it’s broken and not usable

    I put this together when I got it. I had high expectations for the fan. I put it on high and I got next to nothing out of it. What a joke. This is nothing like the reviews that I read. This fan is going back.

    The fan makes a really irritating tapping noise when it is running at the lowest speed (kind of ironic considering it should be quiet). I wanted to return it but it is insanely hard to disassemble.

    Bought this to help with moving air when my air went out and it didn’t do much more than take up space. Certainly not worth the price. I returned it.

    Where’s the air flow?

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The redeeming quality of this fan is the style/look, but what a pity I took too long to take back to the store (was no longer able to return). The air flow that comes from this fan is pitiful - even on the highest level, doesn’t even compete with my Lasko fan’s lowest setting. Save yourself and get any Lasko before getting this fan.

    I bought this on sale $10 off. NO where does my order said this was a return or a refurbished product. But it had clearly been returned to the store, Wrapping already open, padding in incorrect places....works for a few. Then we turn the wall unit AC on, and then this fan starts to sputter. Air flow goes down. Seems to happen only when the AC is on, tired other plugs, and on separate breakers, still sputters.

    Right now our AC is out but I have a $20 pedestal fan that works better than this thing. Not only is it short but you can barely feel it unless you're right next to it. Forget cooling off a small room let alone a large one. The "8 speed" "feature" is a joke feels less powerful than a 3 speed

    I was excited to get the fan but it did not last...my excitement faded to frustration the minute it died which was 4 days after picking it up at the store. It is so hot especially in Miami, FL that I needed extra help in the cool down department but this did not work. Thankfully the staff at the store was great and refunded me immediately!
