> 3 dayI 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

> 3 dayThis thing is great. Its not too small, its not too big. It can swivel up and down, the settings are perfect strengths, it is easily taken apart and cleaned. Its sturdy without being heavy. And it has a long life-span. The only negative is everyone else realized how awesome it is and its gotten expensive. I paid $20 for it on sale, that price makes it pretty darn great.

> 3 dayThe motor finally gave out on my 10+ year old box fan and this sounded like a suitable replacement. Easy to move and position. I use it in my upstairs bedroom.

> 3 dayOctober 31, 2019 update: I contacted Lasko directly and they sent out a replacement blade and it corrected the issue. Replacing the blade was easy, removing the 4 screws that secured the front grill and the 2 screws that secure the handle. The old blade pulls off and the new one pushes on. That’s it. As mentioned previously, this fan pushes a lot more air than the typical box fans we have, and that was the primary reason for purchase. Original review: October 23 & October 25 for the two fans delivered: I am at a loss to explain what is going on with these fans. I returned the first as it came broken. The replacement unit has an issue with the blades, causing a startup shudder/vibration and a constant vibration (which you can feel through the floor) as it runs. These were new, not refurbished, so it’s hard to explain! My plan is to reach out to the manufacturer before returning for replacement or refund, as I’ve lost faith that a replacement would arrive in good working order! On the plus side, these fans do put out considerably more air than our existing 20” box fans. The box work well and have worked well for years, but they don’t move a lot of air. This was the primary reason to purchase this fan over another box fan. I wish we could get one that isn’t broken and works properly! :(

Greater than one weekLike so many others during this HOT Summer, our home air conditioning just couldn’t keep a comfortable temp in our home. We added two of these Wind Machines in our home, and combined with our home cooling system, we’ve been able to maintain more comfortable temps. I can highly recommend these fans!

> 3 dayThis fan has a large surface area for the stand and is stable. It comes apart for cleaning the blades and grill. While it is not as quiet as I would like it moving air makes noise and this fan makes the least amount of noise compared to a few other brands I have owned. It moves air at a good clip or slowly depending on which of the 3 settings one chooses. It has a long cord so it can be moved around the room and it can be rotated to move air straight up. I didnt get a remote so I cant comment on that but for the money this is the fan. Ive owned several and they lasted me ten years with spring and fall cleaning of the unit. I also put the vacuum nozzle right up to the electric motor vents to pull out debris and with the windows open all summer and 2 cats and 2 dogs I get a lot of debris... I recommend this fan. And thanks to the company for making something to last! Thats the way to keep customers!

24-11-2024Not the prettiest fan ever made but it does a GREAT job of moving air! It is huge but lightweight and the handle makes it easy to move if necessary. The highest setting is pretty loud and would interfere with hearing television but if you can position yourself within 10 feet of it, you won’t need to crank it that high and will still keep cool. At level 3 you’ll hear nothing but a rush of air, which is soothing if you like white noise. As a matter of fact, this is an excellent white noise machine as it’s able to block out traffic sounds from the busy, road rage guaranteed, boulevard in front of my house. The Wind Machine comes ready to use out of the box — plug it in and you’re set! I never thought I’d be this excited about a fan, and this might be heat-induced delirium talking, but I’m really pleased with my purchase. Haven’t yet had to try to clean the blades but will edit this review with an update should that prove to be a hassle. Mar 14, 2022: Just want to report that the fan is STILL performing like a champ (fingers crossed) despite heavy use and not as much maintenance as I should have done. My only gripe is that is a bit difficult to clean the blades since the front grille doesnt just snap off and on like some other models. First time, I disassembled the housing (dont lose track of the screws!) which wasnt exactly hard but those screws are recessed and it couldve been easier. Took about an hour for disassembly, cleaning & reassembly - with the actual cleaning taking the least time. My solution is that now I take it out into the yard at the start and end of each summer, spray a little dish soap/water mix through the grille onto the blades, and blast it clean with the garden hose. I tip the fan so that the motor faces up to avoid getting water in there. Drip dry out in the yard, 15 minutes of active work total! Occasionally vacuuming the back helps, too. (I have long haired pets.) Heres hoping for another year of use out of this thing!
