    Powerful Fan

    I ordered 3 of these on sale in the copper color online. The color wasn't anything like I expected. Much more of a muted antique brownish color . I was surprised at how powerful this little fan is. It really puts out the air and that's exactly what I wanted unlike the little personal fans I've been using. I wish it came with a remote, but I can live without it. I'm going to use one on our patio this summer not only for keeping cool , but it will blow the mosquitos away during the evenings upping our enjoyment being outside. I highly recommend this little fan especially if you live in a small house or apartment and need something that doesn't take up a lot of space, but still need lots of air too keep cool

    Lifesaver in a nasty heatwave

    This is such a great fan I bought it twice. And just in time for a horrible heatwave. It's small, powerful, stylish, and most importantly, IT WORKS. Seriously, if you need airflow and have no a/c, I recommend getting yourself one of these.

    I absolutely LOVE this fan! I was looking for a retro style fan small enough to place on my kitchen counter or buffet that would also match my kitchen decor, I got the stainless steel fan. My kitchen is fairly large so I needed it to be powerful and this fan certainly is. The fan is sturdy and has a good weight to it so it doesn't move or vibrate even on the high setting, that high setting IS powerful. All 3 settings work great but due to how powerful it is the low setting is what I use most. I read in other reviews that some said it was too loud but I don't think so, it's a fan so it will make noise. I get so many compliments on this fan and it looks great in my kitchen and matches the stainless steel appliances perfectly. When I placed my order Best Buy said it'd take 5-7 days but I got it the next day! How's that for speedy service!

    I was looking for a tabletop fan for a room that constantly seems to get hot, and this fan delivered. I originally purchased a different table top fan and had to return it because the blade was the size of my fist and it delivered no power (it even cost more!), the exact opposite of this one. This fan is STRONG. The airflow is amazing. It's a bit on the loud side and the only downfall is that even it's low setting is still super powerful, but I guess that just speaks to how great this fan can be. I managed to get this on sale for $20 but had I known how amazing it was I wouldn't blink an eye at paying full price.

    Love this fan! I have two of them, and they're powerful and sturdy enough that my cats can't knock them down. The finish is nice on this one, but I like the gun metal color better. It's powerful enough for a large room. The cord is heavy and a decent length. It has three settings and oscillates at a wide angle. I strongly recommend it.

    Good Little Fan

    Does a good job of moving air around the bedroom as well as other small rooms, even without using oscillation feature. Though small, it is powerful enough to get the job done. Occasionally use medium speed setting but most of the time the lowest setting is sufficient. Retro style is a nice added touch.

    This fan rules. I am weird when it comes to design. I hate plastic. It looks cheap and collects dusts like no other. Black is the worst and white is almost as bad. I think modern fans are very ugly, tacky in design and craftsmanship. I like metal. glass, mirror. My boyfriend chose this for me. It was all sold out on Amazon. I was lucky and found it locally at Best Buy on sale for a fraction of the cost of the ugly cheap plastic fans. This fan is beautiful. It is strong and sturdy in construction and very powerful. I have never used it past the 2nd setting and 90% of the time used the 1st. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants an option other than plastic, has a retro or vintage decor. But it can suit any decor . If you wants something that is beautiful to look at and not just a cheap clump of plastic parts this is the fan for you.

    This fan looks great, and is powerful - really moves some air. Keeps the room cool, and oscillates if you're into that sort of thing. Wish I'd have bought one for every room when they were on sale. Oh well...

    If you're looking for a sturdy desk fan for your office (personal or otherwise) this is absolutely the perfect fan. I also enjoy the sleek, streamlined look and provides some white noise. Has a good amount of power at the third setting as well.

    It's sleek, simple, elegant, and powerful. Some might say it's a bit loud, but I think it's perfect. It creates a nice white noise that really cancels out the street noise. It's also a really good deal, I think.

    I love the way the fan looks and it really puts out a good breeze and gets the air moving in the room. It is pretty quiet and the only problem is I only bought one while they were on sale and I wish I had gotten 2!!!!!

    I was looking for a high quality, metal retro-look fan to add to or replace the white, plastic fan I already have. I read all the reviews and bought it based on the fact it was supposed to be fairly quiet and powerful at the same time. I found it to be much louder than my plastic fan and not as powerful... but I tried to like it because it's so well made and looks great. Unfortunately, I couldn't have it in the bedroom while trying to sleep and in the living room, it wasn't providing enough air circulation. I have a small house so the rooms are not large. Disappointed, I returned it and am still searching for a great fan.

    The fan looks great! Was on sale for $26.00. I ran the fan on the slowest speed and was impressed. Very smooth and quiet. All three speeds are powerful.

    This is a powerful fan! It is sleek in its design, able to blend with any décor. It cools off a fairly large room easily. Downfall....it can be a bit loud but I often use it as "white noise" to help me sleep!
