Lasko 3300 Wind Machine Air Circulator Portable High Velocity Floor Fans, for Indoor Home Cooling Breezes and, White Noise in Bedroom

I bought this to replace the same model and make fan that I had for many years. I run it all night long. Not only for white noise but temperature control. If you tilt it you can change the temperature in your room

After hunting at Wal-Mart, Target, and local stores for this fan of the gods, I turned my search to the internet. Alas my only hopes seemed to be Lowes or Home Depot. On either site the price was amidst double what I would normally pay, but these werent normal circumstances. My trusty wind machine had bit the dust after 3 years of nightly bliss. Its blades purring methodically as the gentle breeze lulls me to sleep. No! I must have a replacement now! Added to my cart, I could feel my sleep slipping away when I read the dates for pick-up. The shipping seemed to be a too far away and a few days without sleep is too much! Finally a voice called out from behind me. Was it the voice of an angel guiding me to those brisk winds of serenity? I heard the voice say, Try Amazon. And indeed I did. I clicked the button and felt my eyes well with tears of joy, I added an extra to my cart just in case. Then guided myself to the proceed to check out where I found one day shipping available! My salvation and breath restored, I now sleep under a blanket of security knowing I have my beautiful dream maker (and an extra in the closet). Heed caution and purchase this fan today before its too late and you find yourself in the same tale of woe as I experienced that horrible night the fan died!

It was a gift

Does the job well!

Use it for my shop.

An Amazing fan the speed selector handles the speed you are looking for. If you are handy you can build a base and hang it from the ceiling.

I like the look, the quality and the air flow.. What I dont like is that the controls are in the middle on the back. Its minor, but its an inconvenience. It would be better if the controls were on the top where they are easily accessible

Not a deal breaker but the control knob goes loose 3 out of 4 times we use this. Were not over turning it and are now really careful turning it slowly but it still does it. We just pull it all the way off and press it firmly back on again. Doesnt look stripped but dont want to glue it on. We can live with it. Other than that nice fan.

Middle of the road noise level. Moves a decent amount of air for a plastic fan. Not as much as a metal fan.

Ive been using this fan for about 2.75 years now. I run it every night in the bedroom to keep air from getting stale, and to create some background white noise. The fan itself is capable of moving extreme amounts of air. Moving that air creates noise - which is incidentally perfect for white noise at night. During the summer I had this in the office to help cool me down. Ill admit, it is loud. But I still love this thing a ton. Its very sturdy. Even after constant use it hasnt gotten loose or worn down. Its rattle-free after all this time, and a very smooth consistent work horse. It doesnt do the whole auto rotation side-to-side thing, but it does stay pushing at at the direction you point it. You can pivot it up and down, and it holds that position. Ive used it in the kitchen window after a botched burnt dinner. This thing is much lighter than youd expect for its size. Ive seriously considered getting a second one of these things. I actually do strongly recommend this fan. Mine has been solid quality, and I bet yours would be as well Update after 2.75 years (above review is 1.5 years in): The fan is still performing exactly as described above. I love this thing. The reason Im updating this is because Ive come back looking to buy a second.
