Lasko 4930 Remote Control Oscillating High Velocity Fan

This fan will blow you away literally! I like loud and powerful fans... and if you're anything like me you'll like this one. In the past I would just have a desk fan sitting like a foot away from my face, while sleeping. But in my current place I don't have an end-table by my bed so I have to resort to a standing fan that is about 15 feet away from me. Now, I've tried out quite a few pedestal fans and most of them will give you a slight breeze that doesn't quite give you that tornado ripping through your room feeling that I was so dying for. This one definitely delivers on the airflow... and if you like a noisy fans, this one will definitely excite you. THE POSITIVES: - Extremely powerful airflow on HIGH. Feels like you have an F5 tornado in your room. (Even on LOW it has great airflow. Probably around a F2.) - Extremely LOUD... This is either a positive or a negative for you. On HIGH setting though it does sound like a JET is outside of your window. THE NEGATIVES: - Extremely LOUD... This is a negative for those that don't want to go deaf by age 40. - The remote is basic... Not like you really need an LCD screen on your fan remote or anything. ;) The remote does get the job done though. FINAL VERDICT: It's a great fan for people like me that want a powerful and loud fan that makes them feel like they're in a wind tunnel. You can also use this fan in large rooms in which you want to keep cool in the hot summer. The Lasko 4930 is definitely a home-run. P.S: You might want to sleep with earplugs if you plan on sleeping with it on HIGH setting... because I wasn't kidding about the deaf by age 40 part. :)

Use this in my home which does not have Central Heating and Air. We have a window unit and then fans set up around the house to circulate it. Sadly, if it isn't Winter, it's Summer (and almost no inbetween) so this gets used quite often. It has been quite the blessing. It is a high powered fan which has no problem moving air from one end of my living room to the other and has been instrumental in getting our home to a good temperature. If you enjoy white noise, it's a dream come true. It is loud, there is no doubt. Not quite jet engine (though I've joked about it a few times) however it is noticeable and you will be raising the TV volume a few extra levels or opting for headsets. Power wise, very few other tower fans come close, and if there were only one single tower fan that I could continue to use, it would be this one. The two grates on the bottom do a great job of capturing dust/cat hair and unscrewing them to clean further has not been an issue. It's loud, and it's proud, and it does it's job. So far it's been a year and still roaring strong. All I can ask. Hope this helps.

#1 they are not joking when they say 'high velocity'. My room is pretty large and the wind hits the back wall, and back through the room. Talk about a nice cool down. #2 No moving parts that my 15 month old can get into. He has stuck his fingers in the slots with no initial worry from me he would get them chopped off like with a standard circular fan. He knows now not to stick his fingers in there, even though he wouldn't get hurt. #3 remote control of the fan is a plus. #1 con- the other reviews shared about the oscillation turning no more than 45 degrees. Well that's true, and it kind of sucks. I feel the room could be better cooled if the fan had better oscillating range. This is my only mechanical complaint. The fan came Fully assembled, as it states on the box. So it was easy plug- in- play. I recommend this fan if you don't like moving parts for safety reasons (small children) and you like a fast cooled room. UPDATE 25 Apr 2017 This fan is still going strong after 3 years! It was worth what I paid for, as we use this off and on all year long; to cool or to circulate the air. You do have to clean the dust bunnies every now and then, just like any other fan, but I put this up there as a best Buy! UPDATE 2019: Still have this fan. It’s taken a beating all these years. The only thing that has happened is the oscillation now has a ‘thunk’ sound when it comes back from the left. It’s not too loud but loud enough to notice. It still going strong though. We clean it (use compressed air) to get the dust bunnies out, when needed. No other complaints. We also bought an updated version of this fan for another room. Best fans out there imo. We will only by this brand. 🙂 Update 2021 This fan is still going strong. The oscillation knocks, but other than that, it still works. We clean it on a regular basis with canned air. I bought other for another room 2 yrs ago and today I’m buying another. I will not buy another brand.
