Simple DeluxePedestal Stand Fan with Remote Control for Indoor, Bedroom, Living Room, Home Office & College Dorm Use,3 Speed, Black, 16 Inch

I have house that's almost 100 years old and the electrical system can hardly support modern microwaves and toaster ovens so air conditioners aren't much of an option. The only AC in my house is a large 220 volt window unit on the 2nd floor. Have one of these fans to blow the cold air down the stairs to the 1st floor and the 2nd at the bottom of the stairs to blow the air into my livingroom.These fans are great for airflow and helping you feel cool during hot weather. Their LOW setting is more powerful than standard box fans from places like Walmart. Even on low you can feel the air blowing from over 10ft away.Assembly was easy and the fans are sturdy since they are mostly made of metal. The base is quite heavy making them stable (and as a bonus, my cats seem to like sleeping on the base). The fan can be directed 360 degrees vertically and horizontally so you can easily direct the airflow anywhere you want.But being powerful fans, they can be loud. Fine for a bedroom or hallway where it acts as white noise, but in a livingroom you might have to double the TV volume to hear it as clearly as when the fan is off.

The media could not be loaded. I love the fan.. It's sturdy, works great, and is just the right amount of noise. Now the assembly part was a little tricky, the instructions are not to detailed, and we ended up with extra parts, that weren't even on the the instructions, so hopefully it doesn't fly apart one night while we are sleeping.The shipping is another story, took 2 weeks to get it... I didn't think it was ever gonna get here..Now before anyone says why didn't you just go to the store and buy one? Well because I wanted one with a remote and I wanted one with 5 blades. The stores where I live do not have either, they only have normal fans, three blades, no remote, so that's why I didn't just go to the store and buy one I ordered one, but two weeks to take to get here that's a little ridiculous to me. I live in TN and it came from CA...

This is a good fan, but I would have been happier with a non-electronic one. I haven't used the remote and probably won't. The assembly instructions are very confusing, and the diagram doesn't help as much as you might think, but it went together easily enough once I figured out what I was supposed to do. Caution: the fan blades need to go on in a particular direction, or it will blow backwards; the instructions don't mention that at all.It blows much more strongly than my old fan of the same size. Even the low setting is pretty strong. There's a sleep setting if you want it to turn off after a set number of hours. (I don't.) There's also a "natural breeze" setting that varies the intensity. I can't imagine what the use case for that might be, but someone might like it.The controls on the fan and on the remote control are labeled differently. Most importantly, they use "speed" to mean two different things. The remote has "speed" (low/medium/high) and "mode" (regular/natural breeze/timed). The "speed" button on the fan itself sets the regular/natural/timed function; low/medium/high is controlled by a large, unlabelled button.Something to be aware of if you plan to use this in a bedroom: the large button that controls the speed has an always-on light around it. The low/medium/high setting is shown by a red light when it's on. This can be a problem at night. (Although it does make it easier to find the buttons in the dark.)The fan beeps twice when turned on and once when turned off. There is no way to silence this. Overall, the fan is louder than some, but not impossibly so. If you like white noise, you'll love it.

The media could not be loaded. It's the quietest fan that oscillates and has a remote and many options I literally bought like 4 different varying brands from a well known one that the remote would turn it on but you had to get up to make it oscillate and that reliable brand the higher you set it the faster it oscillated which was annoying and it was mega loud but after trying everything else I initially thought this wasn't as good it ended up being the best for what I wanted and I thought it's affordable price meant it wasn't as good but its cage came bent and damaged but I man handled it into submission lol but it's honestly the best choice I could find after ordering many different kinds all jokes aside it's a good fan for those who don't like to get up to adjust fans it's starting to collect dust but hopefully the vacuum will work

Works great. Everything came assembled except for the stand which was super easy to put together.It has a high velocity wind which came in handy during the hot summer. Cooled down the entire living room. It does have some white noise but I love that sound as it lulls me to sleep. It mutes the outside loud, obnoxious noise from crappy music and people shouting about which wakes me up; as an insomniac, I cherish the little sleep I do get!

This fan is really awesome! While it is loud, I actually like the white noise. It is very powerful! I have only needed to use it on the first setting & the amount of air it pushes is great! Ive had others in the past, that were not near as powerful on 3 as this one is on 1. I hate the heat when I sleep. This fan cools really well.The only thing I wish were different, is the that the cord should be longer by a couple feet. I don't mind that is does not not oscillate side to side, as I have it set up exactly where I need the air to flow. It can be adjusted height wise & you can move the fan itself up & down. For me, it is well worth the money. Keep in mind that it is indeed a loud fan & if white noise is your thing, then this fan will be great in your bedroom. I'm sure it will be perfect in a living room & a garage as well. :)

Overall this has been a great fan so far. It pushes an immense amount of air - enough to keep me cool through hot-flashes from the other side of the room at night. The noise isn't really any louder than I'd expect from a very high speed fan, at least on the lowest setting - it's not enough that I need to blast tv or podcasts. There is a very slight rattle which could become a problem, but currently isn't.Keeping it from 5 stars is the disappointments with the stand and base. The base is covered in a cheap-looking shiny plastic, and there are some really shoddy welding as well. It may not be the most sturdy longterm.Overall, would still recommend compared to a typical 16 inch fan that's generally available at the same price point - much more powerful, should last much longer, and although it's 18 inches the footprint in my small apartment is roughly the same.

Really circulates quite a distance away. Easy to assemble Really strong wind force. Even on low. I am happy with my purchase

This fan is a call back to the 1950s when things were built to do the job and do it well. This fan moves more than enough air that I keep having to turn it off because it's too cold in the heat of summer. Well made.
