 Strong fan but a little loud September 28, 2008
This fan blows hard. Thus, it's gonna make noise. That should be understood. The only major problem is that the base isn't as sturdy as I'd like to see, which makes tipping the fan over pretty easy.
 20 inch cyclone fan - great buy September 7, 2008
This is a great fan. Puts out a lot of air. Takes no time to bring in outside air and cool off any room.
Cooled for 8 years! June 10, 2008
I bought this about 8 years ago & it has done a wonderful job of cooling my bedroom. I agree with another reviewer - it looks cheap, but darn it - it does the job! It still operates, but the knob on top just broke. So now I have to unplug it when I'm not using. - I'm now debating buying this fan, that I know I can trust - it really cools the room, or go for another fan that looks better.
I use this on the low setting, and I like that the breeze is gentle. Also I can tilt it up to the ceiling on cooler days, or right on me when it's really hot. I'm afraid of fans with a super-powerful breeze - they hurt!!
Good, inexpensive fan for the home October 13, 2007
Overall a good, cheap fan for the house. We purchased this as a spare and use it to keep the air moving. Can be loud, especially on the higher settings. Nice sound and air movement on the lowest setting. Downside, this fan can easily tip over, not a great base on it. Pros, inexpensive, not too loud on lower settings, good air movement
Perfect for white noise September 29, 2007

So, i had the unfortunate luck of coming home last week to find that my cat had knocked over the Lasko wind machine that has been my trusty fan for several years ~ the knocking over was apparently the last straw, as the motor quit working. I cannot sleep without a fan (it's my white noise) so we immediately went to wal-mart (yes, at 1 in the morning) to look for a fan. our timing couldn't have been worse, as they were stocking all the heaters that night and claimed there wasn't a fan in the store. The next night we went to another walmart about 1/2 an hour away and received the same story. I gave up and ordered this badboy from amazon. it was here in two days ~ and i've been sleeping like a baby ever since. It's a little loud, but if you're like me, that's what you're looking for. It's so powerful that it moves the blades on the turned off ceiling fan in the bedroom! i don't like the "clicking" design when you move it, but it's better, i guess, than the wind machine's knobs that were forever loose and causing the fan to blow upwards. Overall, this fan is PERFECT for those of us who need a fan to sleep. I'd give it 5 stars if it didn't click when you moved it's tilt, but unless you move it a lot, i guess that's not too much of an issue.
