Generic 16 OSCILLATING PEDESTAL AIR COOLING ELECTRIC FAN EXTENDABLE ADJUSTABLE STAND, White

The media could not be loaded. I purchased this due to England finally actually having some hot weather and as a disabled woman, it is making me a lot more uncomfortable than your average person and with disability comes right funds so as soon as I saw this at the price it was at, I just knew I had to get it. It was very easy to put together, took my partner less than 5 minutes to do with the help of a drill (although drill is not required!). We just used a drill due to it being a lot quicker than doing it with a manual screwdriver. The instructions were very easy to understand with lots of pictures to help you along the way but it was that easy, my partner did not need these! When up, it is a little flimsy but not massively. Even on the lowest setting, it is still quite powerful, easily felt on the other side of the room. The air it blows out is very nice and cool. Some reviews say it is very loud but we do not feel that is the case, ours makes no rattling noise whatsoever, all you can hear is the wind being blown out so this could definitely be used in a bedroom and you’ll still sleep peacefully. The blades do not feel flimsy, just the actual frame. It has 3 different settings depending on how cool you would like to be. For the price, overall, I would say this fan is 100% worth it, a good fan if like me, you are on a tight budget. It does pretty much the same thing the fans over £100 do. I could not recommend this product anymore than I do. Going to make Summer and these heatwaves so much more bareable! Only downside is there being no remote control but for the price, I wouldn’t expect that.

The first one I ordered didn't turn up and had an issue with courier (no fault on the sellers end), I sent them a message and they offered to send a replacement or refund me instantly! I asked for a replacement and it arrived promptly and works very well. Great customer service and a good product for pretty cheap.

Very lightweight and rather flimsy, but at the price you can't complain. It works very well and produces a good flow of air at any setting. Time will tell how well it lasts. It's for a spare room, so it won't be getting a lot of use, and I'm happy with the purchase. As always, the instructions could be clearer, but if you've any common sense you'll cope. One thing - when fitting the spinner on the middle of the fan, remember it has a left hand thread. It's actually moulded into the component (hard to see) but not mentioned in the instructions. Took me a good few minutes to work out why it wasn't screwing on. The little nut and bolt for clamping the two halves of the grille together were so cheap and horrible I couldn't get them to thread together, so I ended up using a cable tie. No worries, though. At the price, it's a bargain.

Quick and easy set up highly recommended

Ok so be careful building it. I've stabbed my hand with the feet. I was trying to put the plastic covers in and the metal foot is so sharp, the whole thing slipped and ended up in my hand.It's flimsy at best. Not sure how long it will last. Get what you pay for I guess. Wouldn't recommend. I'm definitely going to look for a better and more stable one. It's stupidly loud too which isn't great. It's for my little boys room. Cools the temperature slightly but doesn't seem to be enough power. Ease of use is fine once it's built. Fits where I need it and a good size but the metal feet are beyond flimsy.

This thing is built from the sturdiest of aluminium foils, forgotten risk assessments, and the best, most cunningly minimalistic engineering ingenuity. If you are clumsy or sensitive, wear thick gloves putting this together as there are sharp edges. The plastic components may also need a bit of a wipe down. The central pole is not actually a roll of shiny wrapping paper misplaced inside some PVC plumbing tube off-cut, it is the actual pole. Pull it out to extend.Once put together, this looks and operates exactly like a fan, it can also move a lot of air and it's great.The buttons are in the correct order of power/speed, vertically lowest is zero, then 1 above it, then 2, then 3 (not always the case (for good reason too!)). They probably stopped short of giving it a 4 as it might blow itself over.Not ideal for areas of heavy traffic. The feet would likely yield to the most humble of toe stubs resulting in a most apathetic royal bow - reinforcing them with toilet roll cores might just give them a 500% boost in structural rigidity if you cannot place it off the beaten track.It does not do the best job of making coffee, nor blending smoothies, so unfortunately I cannot recommend it for these use cases.I have been running it for the past couple of months, sometimes at 20+ hours per day. Absolutely no decline in service. The stand has not yet buckled under the weight of the fan and my home has also not yet burned down. I cannot ask for more.I shall leave you all with a fitting quote from Antoine de Saint-Exupery."Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."...and they certainly have taken away a great deal.
