Wind Machine Fan, Air Circulator Fan with 3 Speeds, 20" Model 3300, Gray

HEATWAVE UPDATE! We’re on day 2 of a heatwave: actual temperature is currently ° 94.6 - heat index is 107.7 ° Indoors is 82 ° and a comfortable 56 % humidity. (Yesterday’s high outside was 96 ° with 111 ° heat index) ::: attached current sensor reading so you can see outdoor temp + heat index as well as current indoor temp and humidity ( bottom ) Wind Machine set to low, windows and blinds closed to keep heat out. Windows are energy efficient. No need to turn the air conditioner on. The house is comfortable and dry with humidity of 56% inside. ( you want to keep humidity below 60 for comfort) I’ve attached a video of the fan so you can hear it on low. Easily have conversation on phone or in person-fan isn’t very loud. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I bought this Lasko Wind Machine because I have another Lasko (a 16" table fan) but needed one for much warmer months with more wind. I can use both by having one blow out one window while the other blows in. This fan ( actually air circulator ) is fantastic. It’s like getting a wind chill in your house. We had some real warm, humid rainy days and I eventually turned on the air conditioning- but I turned it up to 76 ° and pointed the fan directly at the ceiling. It really helped to disperse the cool air while not having to turn the air conditioning temperature lower- thereby using less energy. On days where AC isn’t needed, this fan provides a nice breeze with the windows open, blowing that cool air around from outside. ( the house is tight- so when it’s warm in here and a cooler temperature outside - this works really well, too. ) Very versatile machine. Can be pointed straight down in winter to disperse warm air, or pointed up to spread the cool air- pointing out the window to exhaust- just a real great circulator all around, with Lasko’s blue safety plug. I’m enclosing a photo of my Wind Machine. I painted the blue parts white because my decor doesn’t have any blue and I wanted it to blend in rather than stand out. I keep it in a room that’s mostly white and seafoam green with a light grey flooring - not the room in the photo. Extremely easy to take apart- the side knobs come off- the handle comes off- easy to clean. Very well built circulator- worked right out of the box. Sturdy and all 3 speeds are powerful. Not real loud even on the highest setting. I get that the cords can’t be super long for a reason but another 10-12" would give more options for placement since you can not use extension cords with fans or circulators for safety reasons. Still a 5 star 🌟 machine. Definitely recommend!

I've used this particular fan for about 25 years. The new ones are as good as the old ones. This fan doesn't generate a lot of wind speed, so it may seem underwhelming. But, try moving your hand around in front of it, and you'll feel that it moves air through a large volume of space at once. It's also much less noisy than a typical box fan, with a darker sound. These 2 factors make this the ideal fan for supplementing an air conditioner. Put the fan on a small table near the AC and you can have it direct cold air at a distant spot. I have mine up on a TV table aimed at my back where I sit writing this review. I can feel the cold air on me just like I could if I were directly in front of the AC. So, I'm able to have both fan and AC in the back of the room, and I can sit and work far away from their noise while still getting direct cooling. In this use case, I think the fan is 100% worth it. If you're using this for direct cooling (like having it next to you as you sleep), it will also work but you can get higher airflow from a shop style fan. I recommend using it to move air from an AC as I described, or put it in a window/door to exchange air quickly with the outside. When you use it like that, you'll see the value of this fan. I've bought my second one ever after writing this review (gave the one from 25 years ago to my parents) and I'm glad to say that this is still a good and well-priced design. This fan can turn a stuffy loft space into a nice comfy place to sleep!

I’ve purchased this exact fan before. The first one got lost/ruined by the ex-bf with no boundaries. This fan is way better than those crap box fans and not as powerful as the kind used by the fire department (who needs that?). Tilts, locks down position; 3-speed dial is easy to turn esp. for arthritic hands. Sits stable on the floor and easy to move from room to room.

This fan works great! It’s very powerful and moves a lot of air, perfect for cooling down a room quickly. The build quality feels solid and durable. I also like that it’s easy to use and not too complicated. It can be a little noisy on the highest setting, but that’s expected for the power it delivers. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase and would definitely recommend it!

Not as quiet as I'd hoped but still packs a punch. Definitely a nice fan - blows things around, creates a nice draft, three or four speeds. Its a great fan and I'm happy with my purchase. It's a little loud if your hearing sensitive-otherwise just turn up the tv. That's what we do. Affordable fan, my the dogs love this fan. We have AC, but they love to lay right in front of it-it's hilarious and adorable. For that reason, I will never get rid of this fan. Happy to say that it's till going strong after this ridiculously hot summer! It's definitely working overtime.

Great fan for the low price. Numerous levels to adjust air flow. I always prefer the brand

Strong wind! Bigger than pictured. Noise level is good. You get that white noise when you sleep. Light weight. Easy to adjust direction. Seems durable. Large base to keep it stable.

This is my 2nd windmachine fan in about 10 years. It’s been a workhorse for making my life a little cooler, using as a floor model at night, and a table fan during hot summer days. Haven’t had any problems as others have, no whining, nothing broken upon arrival, no cracked anything. It’s powerful yet light making it easy to move. Now the one-star-off problem. Why is it so crazy difficult to clean this thing? Having to take it all apart, even down to unscrewing little tiny deep set screws, ups the likelihood of losing them or even cracking the plastic as klutzy as I am. So I keep putting off cleaning it until it’s disgusting. Like right now. Hence the current review. Ugh

He comprado ya tres ventiladores de piso de esta marca y todos han salido muy duraderos. El primero tiene varios años funcionando practicamente todos los dias y sigue trabajando sin fallas importantes. Vivo en Ciudad Juarez, donde el calor es muy fuerte gran parte del año, asi que el ventilador se usa muchas horas al dia y aun asi mantiene buen desempeño. La potencia es suficiente para ventilar una habitacion completa y el flujo de aire es constante. El diseño es sencillo y resistente, no se siente fragil ni inestable. El armado tambien es facil y no requiere herramientas especiales. Algo clave para que duren tanto es el mantenimiento basico: mantenerlos limpios y retirar el polvo acumulado en las aspas y rejillas. El mantenimiento mas complicado seria desarmarlo para una limpieza profunda del motor, pero en caso de que se descomponga un electrico puede cambiar la pieza sin necesidad de comprar otro nuevo, lo cual los hace mas duraderos. Yo tengo tres porque asi todos tenemos uno y no es necesario encender otro equipo. Como punto negativo, el ruido no es molesto pero si es notorio, sobre todo en la velocidad mas alta. Aun asi por la durabilidad, la potencia y que se pueden reparar, me parece una muy buena compra para uso continuo en climas calurosos.

ce ventilateur fonctionne super bien je m’en sœur dans ma chambre et je l’adore pas bruyant bonne capacité au niveau de la ventilation

Duas coisas importantes para saber antes de comprar: 1 - Ele é todo de plástico, e não tem metal, como parece ter julgando pelas fotos 2 - Ele não é silencioso. Eu diria que até dá para dormir com ele na velocidade baixa, mas não é ideal. Esse é na verdade um Circulador de Ar, feito para mover grandes quantidades de ar, e não tem o propósito de ser silencioso. 3 - Ele é ENORME. Deve ter uns 60cm de altura.

Es un buen artículo. Lo recomiendo

O produto chegou antes do previsto e em ordem. Está funcionando bem. É muito bonito, mas.......infelizmente é muito barulhento. Tenho circulador de ar de outra marca, que deixou de fabrica-lo e é muito mais silencioso. A comparação entre os dois com relação ao ruído mostrou que o Lasko ficou muito, mas muito para trás. Produto bonito, mas barulhento.
