Lasko High Velocity Floor Fan with Wall mount Option, 3 Powerful Speeds, Pivoting Fan Head for Home, Garage, Attic, 20, Black, 2264QM

The fan is not nearly powerful enough for my garage.

Works well does its job only draw back, its a little loud.

Bought to replace old floor fan same size. Thought would be very powerful for cooling the house. The motor just not as powerful as older models. High on this model is like a cross between low and medium compared to old model. Other than that good fan.

This fan is awesome! Definitely keeps the air flowing and keeps you cool!

Ok, got my new fan today. Good news, its mostly metal (I sincerely hate plastic) and lot more stable and adjustable than box fan it replaced. Face it box fans are really designed to be in a window. Also not sure what others were expecting, its about same noise level as one of the cheap box fans. Reading other reviews, would have thought it was up there with a jet engine putting out tornadic velocity winds. Bad news it really doesnt move anymore air than one of the cheap box fans in good condition. Best I can tell, just slightly bigger motor than the cheap box fan. This is nowhere near as powerful as the all metal box fans back in the 1960s and 1970s. They had much bigger motor and blades angled to move more air. But on other hand if its motor ever quits, instead of spending another sixty bucks, Ill just adapt motor and plastic fan blade from a new cheap box fan to it. Like say its lot more adjustable and stable than box fan and wire grill lot easier to clean than plastic egg crate grill. Nothing really to do with this fan, but while I was waiting on shipment and delivery of this fan, I got to looking at my old box fan that seemed destined to twirl no more. What was strange was that it was completely dead, motor didnt hum, nothing, like a fuse was burned out.... Well little googling and found fans for last decade all fans have had thermal fuses put in windings of the motor so if motor slightly overheats, fuse pops and everything stops. I guess this was answer to some class action law suit. These fuses are not meant to be replaced, you are supposed to just replace the fan. Good for Lasko, not so good for consumer. Anyway, this is interesting so I took whole motor apart. There she blows matey. Fuse looks like a funny white colored resistor and housed in little fabric like tube thing, tied down to the windings with two plastic strap. I will also mention this is an extremely delicate and fiddly thing to mess with. It wasnt meant to be replaced. I cut the straps and removed the fuse, and tried replacing fuse with bit of wire soldered into place. For life of me couldnt get it strapped down again so it didnt interfere with other stuff. Grrr... But lucky me had another one of these cheap box fans that had quit and somehow hadnt gotten put out with trash. This time I had a clue. I left the burned out fuse strapped in place, looked for the wire in the harness going into the motor to the fuse and the wire going from the fuse to a terminal on the starting capacitor. I spliced a jumper wire from fuse input wire to the capacitor external to the motor housing. Lot simpler and nowhere near as fiddly. Anyway I first tested motor out of fan, worked fine. Gave fan a good cleaning and put everything back together. Wow is all I can say, acted and moved air like a new one. Good cleaning helped a lot. Sure its not quite as safe as it would be with new fuse, but people had fans for lot years without a thermal fuse and I suspect darn few of them burned their house down. One of these motors ever shorts out, should trip circuit breaker for outlet its plugged into. I did look and you can get like 100 of the thermal fuses on ebay for $4 on slow boat from china if you feel need for the extra safety. I still would leave existing fuse strapped in place and just find new place to mount new fuse on windings. Its a thermal fuse so has to be where the heat is, inside the motor housing.

UPDATE!!! Its been 3 years and this thing is still going strong. Quality fan that delivers. UPDATE AGAIN: After 3 1/2 yrs of use I thought the motor was giving out as the blades were slowly turning, squeking noise, and sometimes would not turn at all. Guess what? The fan is still working great I just had to do a little cleaning maintenance, behind the blades where the motor housing is, in between the motor housing and the blades I found string and hair wrapped around the bolt. I removed all of that stuff with a tweezer but still found myself with the blades turning slowly. Finally I add some rust resistance spray in between the motor housing and the blade, the fan is working as good as new. WOW, WOW, and WOW! I read previous reviews that made me decide to get this one; oh man this fan is unbelievable. I accidentally flipped it to speed 3 when I went to turn it on for the first time my cat jumped half across the room and my papers started flying everywhere like I was in a windstorm; this fan literally sounds like a jet engine on speed 3 probably the reason why my cat jumped half across the room besides the powerful wind release. Yes its loud but it doesnt bother me as I can always wear my wireless headphones if I need to watch my movies plus the sound would probably put me right to sleep. I have had numerous fans before (over 10) but I have never come across a fan as powerful as this one. Even on the lowest speed it blows out more wind then any of my previous fans. Unlike the plastic models that break this design is metal and it is built to withstand the powerful wind in which it does not shake. Once again I cant believe a fan like this can put out so much wind. If you are looking for a fan that can disperse incredible wind and noise is not an issue for you then this fan is for you. Thanks to all the ones who reviewed this product before me as it really helped me decide to purchase this one. UPDATE: I purchased this in March it is now almost December, still blowing strong. Some days I wish it had 1 more lower level selection because it does give out a lot of wind even on the lowest selection . UPDATE: 2 YEAR AND 5 MONTHS of use and still going strong. Most days this fan has been on for an average of 16 hours. TIP: Make sure to clean this every once and a while. Make sure to unplug it, remove the cover and clean the fan blades, the back of the fan grill and front. Dust collects on this and by cleaning it, it will make a world of difference on the wind output.

High velocity fan that cancels out other noise. I must have a fan to sleep both for the air movement and the white noise. Before sleeping with fans Id hear everything in the house as if I was awake. Years ago I noticed I could sleep well at my friends house when her fan was going. I got myself a vintage fan from the 70s I think that was a baby blue box fan. It was very powerful! I was spoiled by that. After years of using it every night it just quit on me around 3 a.m. after about 20 minutes I decided Id better go give another fan I wasnt going to sleep anymore that night. I drove to a 24-hour store and grabbed the most powerful looking fan I could find. It was a Lasko that cost me $50 and it was extremely disappointing. I started searching the internet for vintage fans after that and high velocity fans. I almost drove 3 hours to get the same fan I had previously owned that died on me. This family is powerful so if thats not what youre looking for are you cant handle a little bit of white noise this may not be for you. Perhaps for some it would be too loud. If a little bit of wind noise from a high velocity fan doesnt bother you and you want something powerful this for you. After being disappointed with my Lasko I was afraid of making a bad choice again. I am not at all disappointed with this fan. It is exactly what I was looking for. Capable of moving lots of air are you canceling noise. I bought one for my room and my upstairs which is just one giant room. Im very satisfied.

As I write this review Im being cooled and blown away by this powerful fan. Even on the lowest of the 3 speeds this fan moves a lot of air. Solidly built and well designed, Ive purchased 2 of these fans and will probably purchase more.
