Lasko Wind Curve Portable Electric 42" Oscillating Tower Fan with Fresh Air Ionizer, Timer and Remote Control for Indoor, Bedroom and Home Office Use, Silverwood 2554

Waste product. Not working even used travel adaptor for 120 V as US plug. Kindly while marketing in amazon site mention that it requires 120V as in UAE we use 240V. I get to know when it aas delivered and opened from box

Bought this fan to replace an ailing, failing smaller model from another company. Sought one like what we have has in our bedroom for ages. Apparently, they no longer make that model. So this LASCO was the next best thing. And it performs admirably. If it works that well with the doors & windows open, it’ll be a real gem this winter with everything closed up. This model came with woodgrain trim. Making it not only functional, but stylish in our family sun room. It runs very quietly. Making it easy to hear the TV. And not have to try talking over it. All in all, a wonderful machine. With bells and whistles seldom used. But which work very well when called upon.

This ran continuously for 5 years 24/7 although it noticeably started slowing down to the point that by year 6 it really didn't move any air despite taking it apart and thoroughly cleaning it. The AC motor was basically shot. Still, I must admit some sadness as I took the old guy out to the recycling center. I mean, it did its job faithfully all day every day for 6 years. I've had relationships that didn't live up to the standards set by this fan.It wasn't the most quiet or the most powerful but in the halcyon days of its youth, it could blow with the best of them. Godspeed old friend.

I get hot & icky-sticky ‘very’ easily and in the heat we are experiencing Now’?!?! well, it’s saved me!! I sent one to my niece (who lives just outside of Houston TX), even tho she told me that ‘they are used to the heat’. Well, they LOVE IT. I think they thought that fans just pull in the hot air already in the room & merely redistribute it so it then feels like a warm Breeze. But this is SO cool!!! Both figuratively and literally.

We have only had this fan now for about a week. I will come back and update my review as time passes, but I wanted to get some info out there.I have a toddler and an infant.Why I was not looking for a fan with blades:Fans with blades can be a danger, but so can the heat, so I decided on a tower style fan for our rather small apartment. Standing fans we have had in the past were easily tipped and the front metal plate or sometimes plastic was quick to pop off as it hit the floor blade still going strong. Very scary when your child is just 2 and has tipped the fan.My experience so far: *auto shut offThe first day I was quite worried as the fan had tipped (my husband the larger child in the home was playing with it) and it would not turn back on. I became very worried. I unplugged it and plugged it back in. Sure enough this fan has a safety so that if it is tipped it will turn off. *durabilitySo far the baby has tackled it with his 26lb body and it has held up. It is just tall enough that my toddler can't yet push the buttons. *noiseI didn't really care if the fan was quiet or not, but it was an added bonus that it is very quiet compared to our Lasko box fan. If you aren't looking at the fan you would never know that it is rotating. Also make sure you get the screws in the right place. The diagram is poorly labeled. That may be the problem with some of the fans people are having noise with. There are more holes than there are screws and the diagram suggests that they go into holes that they really don't belong in. I will include a picture of the base so you can see. *cooling factorI was disappointed with the amount of air that it moved, and had I reviewed it on day 1 I would have only given it a 3 stars for that, but I have come to realize that while the air it moves isn't much, the air always blows out cool.I find that on hot humid summer days some fans are just blowing around the hot air. I was surprised to find that this fan seems to always have cool air. No idea how but it does.It also does a much better job cooling a room if you always have it on rotate. If not the air just kind of stagnates. *packagingI was very worried when it arrived as it was in the thin box the fan comes in rather than amazon packaging. It already had holes in it. I will be reviewing in my order the packaging as well and I suggest others do the same so they start packing it better. *ion thingTried it doesn't seem to change anything other than a blue light comes on. I have no idea what it actually does. Again bought this fan for safety reasons. *overallI am pleased and hope to buy another when funds allow.Update: It has been about a month now and while my toddler has tackled this fan with his full body weight it is still fully functioning. It has only actually crashed once of the many times hitting wood laminate floors. Now that the weather is warmer it is still blowing cooler air than any other fan in our home.Update: One year later; it is still running great and quietly. The toddler has finally stopped tackling it, but it has survived several falls over the year.Update: It is now June 2014 and we own two of these fans and both are going strong despite a toddler and autistic 6 year old who can now reach the buttons. They also survived a trip in a moving truck to our new home. We have more of an open floor plan now, so two doesn't really cut it for the kitchen/dining room/living room space. The air kind of gets lost, so what I do to help them better cool a room is put them on opposite corners and face them at each other. I plan to buy one more so I can have one in every room in the open space. It also doesn't help that our new home has very old crank windows that only open at an angle and only so far.Update 2018: nothing new to report. They all still work as before.

Bought this in 2018 and I'm not sure if they even sell this anymore, but we still use it to this day. Lost the remote very quickly after plugging in the fan so I can't comment on that... The fan is still blowing quietly to this day-- just make sure you clean it out every once in a while with compressed air.
