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

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!

Perfect fan for keeping cool! It’s powerful, quiet, and the remote control makes it super convenient. Love the adjustable height and oscillation works great in my bedroom.

Great fan for the price, however I had to take it apart after the first hour or so of running cuz their was a really weird hot plastic smell, there were a couple burrs on the main body that were rubbing together and making it squeak and get warm. Brushed them smooth and now it's amazing. Don't know if the one I received just had a slight deformation during production or if I made a mistake when I assembled it but it's great now. Very quiet, and the remote and timer functions are perfect for someone who forgets to turn stuff off

Easy assembly sturdy and very quiet. Worth the purchase and the remote works well. Decent airflow for the size and looks durable and well made.

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.

Works well but completely plastic connectors holding the stand together makes it feel 'rickety,' like it could fall apart at any time; in fact after a few hours of use ours was starting to lean to one side where the lower stand and 'extension' piece are connected - it's duct taped together now to assure it doesn't come apart during the night. There's also a rattling noise we can't locate within the fan mechanism, and it doesn't appear to have a non-oscillation option.The air circulation is nice and the remote is handy but I'm glad to have purchased it at a discounted price.

Easy to put together, has 3 speeds, love the ease of the remote control just the right size

Husband loves this fan.
