Great price, and this fan does what you want it to do.
Nice feature is the height is ADJUSTABLE up to about 42″ high at the top.
It has 3 fan speeds, and the oscillation is easily stoppable at any of the 3. The blades and grill are plastic, not metal, which may make it less durable, BUT also makes it somewhat quieter. Moves a good amount of air, I usually keep it at the lowest speed from a few feet away and am quite comfortable thusly. The only thing I would change if I could is the speed selector should be separate from an on switch, because it goes from OFF to highest to medium to lowest, so i have to click through all the speeds to turn it on and off each time. It would be nice, as I’ve said with other fans, if the speed control knob were separate from the on/off control, and the speed were essentially dimmable from nothing to max , not just 3 preset positions of low, med, and high.
This fan is an excellent choice for bedside though, because as I’ve said you have the option of lowering the height of the pole. The more expensive honeywell with remote control lacks the height adjustment feature.

I bought this fan in July 2009 at Target, on sale for $22.50 and it’s GREAT! I live in Brooklyn, so lugging the box up and down subways and stairs makes the plastic lightweight construction a BIG plus! Putting it together was a Breeze! 10 min with NO TOOL! (Big selling point)
The flat-black color is very nice, just don’t trip over it at night. It moves a lot of air, is adjustable to 45″, has 3 speeds (0=off, 1, 2, and 3) and oscillates which you can of course turn switch off. Some might not care for the fact that there is no separate off switch, it’s setting zero on the fan speed control, but I didn’t mind that at all.
I must say that although the plug claims to have some sort of “patented” surge protection in the plug (who really cares, right?), the cord itself is VERY short. I didn’t measure it but it seems comparatively short and was not long enough to stretch across from one outlet to where I needed it. (So get your extension cord out.. which then diminishes the “patented” surge protection on the plug!)
Overall it is money well spent, it’s not very loud for sleeping, not too heavy, and at $22.50 was a good price. please note, this model does Not have a remote or timer! I would buy it again and would recommend it to a friend.

Its exactly what I wanted. There are about 5 to 7 parts to assemble. And I only had a little trouble putting on the front cover. But once I got it on … that was it. There is a button in the back that turns off the Oscillating feature.
Noise is not a problem. I run it at the low and medium speed. But if necessary I will run it at the high speed.

I had this fan for about a month. I woke up one morning on a 92 humid day to the fan not working. I tried several outlets in my apt thinking it might have been that and no. I tried to clean dust off of it and nothing. I don’t know why it would’ve stopped working. We only used the fan to circulate the AC air luckily we do have the AC or we’d be toasting inside the apt. I don’t even think I’ll bother returning it as I threw out the box not thinking that it would stop working and I always order from Amazon and have no problems. I just had a newborn baby and don’t really have time to go pick up the shipping supplies to send it to them. Will never buy fans from Amazon again.
