Lasko Oscillating Adjustable Pedestal Stand Fan with Timer and Remote for Indoor, Bedroom, Living Room, Home Office & College Dorm Use, 16 Inch, White, 1646

Six and a Half Year Review
Yes, six and a half years ago I purchased this fan here on Amazon. I never considered posting a review of it before because, well–it’s a fan. It spins around and blows air, as fans do. Then the other night, as I was researching some other electronic appliances for purchase and trying to figure out how well they hold up over time, it dawned on me that this Lasko product deserved a positive review that would hopefully alleviate concerns that others might have on buying such an item sight unseen.The fan was purchased to move the air around in a stuffy upstairs bedroom, while also providing white noise for sleeping. It excels in both respects, although I’d caution that one man’s “white noise” is another man’s “annoyance”–the unit is hardly silent, and if you plan on using the highest (of three) fan settings you’re going to notice the noise. Even on the lowest speed I can see how it could disturb those who prefer dead silence as their background noise. For me this is a positive feature (I struggle to sleep without that steady drone), but if you value silence above all else this is ~not~ the right product for you.Set-up was easy and self-explanatory; I can say this with certainty even after all these years because it does require breaking back down for periodic cleaning. The unit is fairly bulky, particularly regarding the base plate which does a great job of stabilizing the fan even on high speed, but does so at the cost of taking up a sizeable amount of floor space. Fortunately, the included remote control (which has worked flawlessly since purchase with, to the best of my recollection, only two battery changes) means that the fan can be tucked into a corner without concern over being able to reach the controls, with the notable caveat that you cannot remotely change between oscillating and stationary.What I want to stress most of all, though, is that this fan has had ~zero~ mechanical issues over the six and a half years I’ve owned it. And we’re not talking occasional use here, either–between keeping the airflow moving during the day and providing white noise at night, it has been running ~far~ more often than not over these years. During the summer the fan is generally left running (on high) for literally 5-6 MONTHS at a time–not “every night for months”, but literally 24 hours a day, every day, for 5-6 months!! I’ll be the first to admit that the construction ~feels~ flimsy when you first unpack and assemble it, but the results don’t lie: this fan has been unbelievably durable. And not just mechanically, either–even after at least a dozen dis-assemblies for cleaning, the plastic clips which hold the plastic casing in place have held up beautifully as well (I distinctly remember thinking during the first assembly that there was no way those things would last–I was very wrong!).I cannot comment on how well the timer function works as I obviously haven’t used it, and as alluded to the blades will pick up a good amount of gunk over time which requires regular wipe-downs (as any bladed fan will). Overall, though, if you’re not scared off by the size of the unit and don’t mind the steady droning of a fan while sleeping or going about your day, I cannot recommend this product more highly. If it ever ~does~ break down, I will gladly purchase another to replace it!

Oscillating adjustable fan
I love this fan it works so good there’s no noise the quality is great it has wonderful power fits perfectly within my bedroom it keeps me cool there is no battery it is plug in thank you again Amazon!

Buy one now!
Great value, it works perfectly and it’s completely noiseless, the entire assembly is made of lightweight plastic, and that’s a plus and I don’t need any heavy duty fan, it does have the perfect looks, quality, and price point. Assembly took me about 3 minutes, I admire the simplicity in the design and the shiny finish on the materials, I really appreciate the timer function (1, 2, 4 hours) and that was the main selling point for me. The remote control is cute and can be held up onto the fan motor casing via the included self-stick, two sided Velcro type attachment which I almost missed. Two remote control AAA batteries are not included, but that’s absolutely no problem.I’ll order a second unit for my bedroom.

Es un buen ventilador, pero es un poco chico y por lo mismo, no genera tanto aire. Está bien para un área pequeña o bien, tenerlo cerca. Los materiales están bien al igual que su control remoto.

Bought it in June, now end of August it stopped working.

Assembly was very easy. Unfortunately, the fan was dead. I tried it in a number of different outlets, but it would not turn on.I contacted their Customer Service line, and they asked for product number and serial number, then told me they will send a replacement unit right away, but it would likely take 7 to 10 business days.Update: The replacement fan has still not arrived. I contacted Customer Service, and they gave me a tracking number which revealed the fan was sent to the wrong address (wrong country). They sent out another replacement fan and again said it would take 7-10 business days.The second replacement has not arrived. I sent an email to them telling them I wish for a refund. They replied saying: “This is a reminder that we have not forgot about you. We have received (#######) and we are working quickly to respond to all of our customers in a timely manner. We thank you for your continued patience. It’s been a week since the reply, and still nothing. I feel like this is going to go nowhere, and I basically threw away the money I paid for this fan.
