Simple Deluxe 18 Inch Pedestal Standing Fan, High Velocity, Heavy Duty Metal For Industrial, Commercial, Residential, Greenhouse Use, Black

Very powerful .. Sturdy and with it being a stand, safer for my long dogs ..Definitely would recommend this.Thank you.

The media could not be loaded. It's a very sturdy fan it puts out a ton of air. And the fact that it's all metal. I was reading the specs and it said the fan is plastic but it's clearly aluminum so that's even better. You don't have to clean metal as much as you do plastic. If you haven't got one of these, you really need to get one. I bought it used. Keeps it out of the dump.

I bought this fan to blow across the top of my wood stove to distribute heat. It has a simple 3 speed control switch on the back of the fan and almost everything is metal except for the cover on the base, height adjusting tensioner and the fan angle adjustment knobs( there are metal captive nuts so you could remove those if you are trying to use this somewhere they could melt). It blows enough air at low speed for my purposes and isn’t too loud. I plan to use it in my garage in the summer on high where it does make noise but flows a lot of air. Very pleased with this. The simple speed switch is ideal for my setup where a temperature controller turns the fan on and off.

To the extent that all you care about is having a powerful fan, this was a wonderful purchase. Even the lowest setting blows more than a "kind homosexual gentleman" at Folsom. I call this the "outside fan" because that truly seems like the best place to use this fan (note: not waterproof!). Use in a bedroom only if you're trying to use as a noise making device or you're just a person of excess, someone who would appreciate drinking ice water from a mop bucket at a restaurant.However, there are some opportunities for improvement.First of all, my fan arrived missing the required hardware to assemble the pole onto the base. I didn't want to hassle with a return so I just went to my local hardware store and bought a bolt of seemingly appropriate size. It's working fine.Second, as I alluded to before. This fan is LOUD, even on the lowest setting. I honestly would be happier if the lowest setting was the highest, and there were two lower settings. I've only ever used the "high" setting as a way to keep roommates unaware of any primal fun happening in the vicinity, and for that purpose it does quite well (esp when paired with music). I don't think there's a real reason for "medium" speed. At any speed, truly, I do not need this much ventilation in any room of my house. But, my house has a bunch of small rooms so maybe for some this is more ideal.I've had it in my bedroom, making too much noise, constantly cycling between "low" (too loud) and off as my tolerance for heat versus noise oscillates. And, I've gotten used to the excess of it. So, Four stars. It's a good fan. I'm just an idiot for buying an "outside fan" for my bedroom. Other reviewers warned me, I didn't listen. Don't be like me. ~Neill

The media could not be loaded. I got the replacement and this is what I wanted lol fan works great sounds great and really cools you off. I guess the first fan I recently ordered just had too much power lol but I still recommend it it’s a great fan and my old fan is still blowing strong too going on abouy 4-5 years now!I bought this industrial fan because I literally own one exactly like it that I bought like 3-4 years ago. This same brand and has lasted me and has been so amazing so I searched for it again because my son needed one for his room and me thinking, okay this fan brand has been durable and great so I purchased one again and this time upon turning it on it sounded like a planes wind turbine about to take off and it shook around until it fell. We looked it over made sure everything was screwed on properly tried it again and still so damn loud and shaky nothing like our old one. I put in for a replacement but I’m upset because I had such high hopes for this fan and it’s also expensive but I looked passed that because of how good the quality of my old one is. I will update when I get my replacement.

I couldn't assemble it. The directions included only the obvious steps and no explanation of how.I had the manual. In asked how. The instructions do not explain this. They are poor, incorrect, and insufficient.The instructions say:1. First put the bottom cover(7) on the base(8);2. Install the telescopic tube on the base and lock it with a nut(9);That means, I am to fasten the tube to the base using the l- shaped screw, washer, and nut. So I have to insert the screw through the washer into a hole at the bottom of the base? THERE IS NO HOLE IN THE BASE.There are a knob on each side so you can Tilt the fan and lock it in place. A plastic surface contacts the wire frame. The frame suits at an angle to the knock at the top parts of the U- shaped structure holding the fan. On one side the contact plastic is at an angle so the whole surface contacts the wire frame, but on the other side the contact is straight so it contacts the wire at one point so it slips. Normally this would mean you can't tilt the fan, but in this case it is also bending the wire.The labels in the assembly components do not match the items they point to.9 is not "nuts" it's an l- shaped screw, a bolt to be exact6 is not nut.4 are not nuts they're screws.Instructions:Nuts do not need screwdrivers, they need wrenches. The instructions said assembly required a screwdriver, but there doesn't mention any screws.If the instructions are translated or interpreted into English that should be done by someone who's native language is English.The instructions are for a lay person and any one with a low level of education and no technical experience should be able to follow them.Google translate would have done a better job of translating to British or American English.Thank you,Mo
