Day 1 base is not heavy enough for the amount of power from the fan and raffles really loud, no watching tv(on MAX) if it’s on lvl 3. At lvl 3 it’s a Powerful fan(10/10 on power) but after a year the cage started to fall apart. After that lvl 1 for couple months and then the blade broke in half. I recommend buying a Best Buy warranty with this, my fan didn’t make 2 year.

I purchased this for my mom who lives down south and needed a fan to stay cool. I put the fan together for her and it worked wonderfully! The metal blades made the entire house nice and cold even without the air conditioner being on! But then it stopped working. I bought this in August and in November it died. It’s worth the money but I wished it lasted a little longer.

I've purchased tower fans before but they seem to be weak. This is the best fan I ever purchased. It is strong, quiet and fits perfectly in the corner out of everyone's way. It adjusts to any height you want.

I purchased this it lasted for a year and I went back to Best Buy I didn’t buy the extended warranty. I called the third party and she was able to send me one for free and works and it’s strong. I have it for a year and it’s still working.

I also have their industrial style which is amazing. This smaller one is excellent. The metal blades are much better than plastic and very quiet too. Good job

First of all, having to wait over 2 weeks for this to be delivered kinda sucked, but, it is what it is.
2nd...maybe the company could be kind and include *all* of the screws in the box? Just a thought. But eh, I'm an engineer, I've got screws lying around for most everything. So that's solved for me.
3rd, and the condemning factor : this fan puts out as much air as an asthmatic 85 yr old wearing a mask. The blades aren't tilted to any optimal angle (20°, give or take.) instead, they're nearly flat. Not to mention I had to deburr the collar on the blades just to get it on the shaft. (giggity) Now by the time you've gotten this thing assembled, you probably don't want to go find an angle gauge and start tweaking it, and if you do, well, mechanical engineering may be your thing.
Tl:Dr don't buy this unless you absolutely want to spend 5 hours fixing a 50 buck fan from the factory.

BROKE WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF PURCHASE.BECAUSE OF THE WAY IT WAS PACKAGED I FELT IT WAS A RETURN . IT MADE LOUD SCRAPPING NOISE AND JUST STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED THE COMPANY. THEY WERE REALLY EASY TO WORK WITH . THEY ASKED A FEW QUESTIONS AND ASK ME TO SEND A PICTURE OF THE FAN IN AN EMAIL AND THEY SENT ME A NEW ONE WITHIN ABOUT 7 DAYS OR SO. SO FAR NO PROBLEMS WITH THE REPLACEMENT.

GREAT FAN BUT BULKY

This fan is amazing. It cools my rooms and although not as well made as the previous one I bought a few years ago, it serves it's purpose. The only downside is that it is so bulky to move around which comes from the pedestal holding it up but it is not too heavy. I am looking for a little cart to put it on so I can easily move it around. All in all, it was an excellent investment.

The Pedestal Fan is very good quality and the metal wings give very strong air. It is sturdy and have three speed option to choose from. I have tried many fans but have not seen any fan better then this one. The size is adjustable and up to 18" tall. The air flow is very strong and since it oscillate so the air reaches every one all around the room. Over all the fan deserves 5 out of 5 and i would definitely recommend it to all of the friends and family members.

I was looking for a pedestal fan for my large size bedrom as the other fan I have was not effective to move the air around. This is a perfect fit to my needs. Not too loud like industrial fans and looks sturdy. Easy to assemble. Working good.

The fan puts out good air but came with a broken piece. I think it’s causing the fan to make clicking noises.
