Lasko 3300 Wind Machine Air Circulator Portable High Velocity Floor Fans, for Indoor Home Cooling Breezes and, White Noise in Bedroom

I read so many great reviews about this but one stood out the most because the reviewer posted a great video of the fan. I was going to buy it from Amazon when I got back home but happened to stop in a riteaid drugstore and signed up for their wellness card and recieved an instant $25.00 off AWESOME I am naturally very hot and have my ac running during the winter, so I figured Ill buy it just 3 blocks from home and if Im not happy with it Ill return it. Well, this fan is FANTASTIC, Ive used all 3 settings and am very impressed with how well it moves the air around. I always set my AC at 63-64 65-66 during the winter. With this fan I have my AC set at 66-67 and the fan set at 1 and I feel fantastic, it was 97 the other day and had the setting at 2 and my ac on 66 and actually put a shirt on and set the fan on setting 1 . Thats pretty impressive coming from a person that CANT HANDLE HEAT AT ALL 2 ADDENDUM - 2017 , ORIGINAL FAN PURCHASED IS WORKING FINE HOWEVER, I PURCHASED ANOTHER IT ARRIVED WITH NOTHING TO PROTECT IT FROM BEING BOUNCED AROUNCED DURING TRANSPORT VIEW PHOTO, THIS IS BEING RETURNED . With the ac off I had it turned up to 3 and it has an amazing wind force but you do need the AC for the cold air. So the two make a great marriage and I save money on my energy bill. Very easy to clean the blades, you just unloosen the sides and pull the front off. Its very lite-weight and the handle on top is an added bonus. It does shake when set above 1 but not much and has a nice whisper sound which comforts me. I have a $300.00 bladeless fan I purchased last year and this blows it out of the water. Had I purchased it on Amazon for the 50% more I would have still been thrilled and Im buying another just to keep in another room or as a backup. Perfect name for it, it really is a heck of a wind machine.

This is a great fan, and very powerful, especially for folks on a budget. Its a bit on the large side for indoor use in a small apartment, but I dont care because its also very powerful, even on the lowest setting. It is very light and easy to move around in spite of its size. It dropped the temperature in my bedroom by two full degrees without my touching the thermostat, in only a couple of hours. So it is very good for the electric bill. The design is great for people with children or (like me) pets. There is no way to knock this fan over with the way it is shaped and the fan blades are well enclosed away from little fingers and paws. I love that I can tilt it toward the ceiling to maximize airflow in the room, or down toward the floor for drying after a good mop. It does make a bit of noise, but its a soothing white sort of noise, and fine for leaving on all night while I sleep.I quite enjoy it, actually. I did not get any kind of discount in exchange for my review. Just really liked the product. If you find this review helpful, please click Yes before you go.

GREAT!

This thing is great. Its not too small, its not too big. It can swivel up and down, the settings are perfect strengths, it is easily taken apart and cleaned. Its sturdy without being heavy. And it has a long life-span. The only negative is everyone else realized how awesome it is and its gotten expensive. I paid $20 for it on sale, that price makes it pretty darn great.

Its hot and super muggy in Brooklyn now and this fan has been one of the best things I ever purchased from Amazon. It arrived in a crunched box and I thought I would find a broken fan inside but to my happy surprise, it was without a scratch. The wind this dynamo produces actually does cool down my hot living room (its quite large for a mid-income building in NYC). Sadly, my old air conditioner is kaput. Several years ago, I bought a large overhead light and ceiling fan thinking it would help with sky-rocketing energy costs and I wouldnt need to run the air-conditioner on high as much. Boy, was I wrong. The afternoon sun burns up my apartment and even with the air-conditioner and ceiling fan, it tends to get stifling in here. Last summer when the air-conditioner sighed its last cool breath, I was pinching pennies and decided I needed another fan so I bought a costly Lansko upright model locally. Total waste of money. It hardly blows any air even though it’s silent and oscillates. Still pinching pennies these days, a new AC is not an option. On top of the cost of buying one with a high enough BTU, my buildings management wants $375 just for the installation because of the kind of custom windows we have under strict warranty. All this to say, the Wind Machine 3300 has been doing double-time when the temp rises over 90 and the heat index feels more like 115 degrees. Yes, it’s a little noisy when turned on high and it does not oscillate but that’s nothing I can’t live with for the breeze. I like that I can adjust where the air is blowing by tilting the fan up or down. Twice now, I’ve even forgotten to turn on the overhead fan which proves to me that this (under $40) powerhouse is a bargain. I risked the bad reviews and am thrilled with this purchase! Just keeping my fingers crossed that the Wind Machine will keep working as it is now.

An Amazing fan the speed selector handles the speed you are looking for. If you are handy you can build a base and hang it from the ceiling.

I like the look, the quality and the air flow.. What I dont like is that the controls are in the middle on the back. Its minor, but its an inconvenience. It would be better if the controls were on the top where they are easily accessible

So far this is a really good fan. I use it in front of my treadmill to cool me down when I run. I like that it isnt a pedestal fan and it sits on the ground, but it can be rotated up to aim directly at me instead of a traditional box fan which can only be facing forwards. It puts out a good amount of air and even on its lowest setting produces a good breeze. So why four-stars then? Two things. The location of the knob is not very convenient. It is located on the back of hte fan, so when you tilt the fan up, you actually have to reach underneath and behind the fan to get to it. Seems like they couldve put it near the handle or on the side and it wouldve been just fine. Second thing is cord length. Id read many of the reviews and questions and there was talk of cord length, and some said it was 5 feet, some said 6 feet, some said 8 feet, so there didnt seem to be a lot of agreement. I havent actually measured it, but Id guess it is closer to 5 feet, maybe even less... meaning that pretty much anyone will have to run an extension cord to use it no matter where they want it unless its right near an outlet. I get this is true of a lot of fans, but was really hoping to be able to plug it in without an extension cord.

I bought one of these fans 5 years ago. I have since purchased 2 more! Even with air conditioning in my home I still like to move the air around in certain rooms. I purchased one of them for the largest room in our families air conditioned lake home as well. Better than a box fan by far. I love how easily they stand and that I can position the fan as it can be tipped up or down to blow the air. This is the quietest, larger fan for the money, that I have ever used. It moves the air marvelously where I want it to. Great for helping to dry freshly shampooed carpets too! As fans can get dirty with use, I can take this fan apart easily to clean the fan blade and grates. It cleans up very easily. The first fan I purchased is still going strong after 5 years of constant use. Please be aware that this fan does not oscillate to and fro. It is directional only. Very good product and worth every penny. I would recommend this fan to others.

This is my third one they last about 3 years. I turn it on every night when I go to bed for the noise, pointed straight up.
