LASKO 4420 Jet Air Tower Fan

I have tried tower fans in the past without much luck. They are unstable, noisy, and don't last very long. They're also weak compared with a conventional oscillating floor fan. However, I am amazed with the design of this Lasko fan. Rather than a long vertical box fan, it has a short horizontal box fan in the base. At the lowest setting it moves air better than the high setting on most other tower fans. It is very powerful. Cranking it up to high does not cause it to wobble like other designs. Aviation style vents put the air where you want it so you can cover a larger area or aim the flow up or down. It has a cute night light in the base, oscillates left and right, and has an infrared remote control.

For the cons, I'd have to say the finish doesn't look as nice as the photo. When it oscillates left and right, it doesn't move very much - although the vents will cover much wider area than any other fan I've used - so, you don't really need the oscillation at all...Read more

I've been using this fan for a little over a month everyday. I was looking for a powerful tower fan to circulate air on the top floor of the house. This fan does the job while working well with another box fan. I placed the box fan on one the window facing outside while the Air Jet blew cooler air from the other window on the other end of the house. You can feel the wind blowing 10 feet away at the lowest level setting. However this fan is louder than I expected. I would buy this fan if u are looking for something that can blow air 10 - 25 feet but don't mind the noise. I have to put the fan far away from the bed at night because it's loud and too strong even at the lowest level.

The remote is very useful at night if u don't want to get up and turn off the fan. Since I don't use the timer function so much, it's fine without it. Finally, for $60 bucks it's good fan and worth the money. It's easy to assemble and easy to use. The only issue is the noise. it's almost as...Read more

The air blows out at great speeds, much better than the traditional tower fan. My confusion is this. It has a night light at the bottom of the fan, apparently so you can see it at night, which, I thought was kind of a nice idea. The problem is that the blue off and on button on the top of the fan is much brighter and luminates the entire room with blue light. I've had to cover it up at night to keep my room dark. I e-mailed the factory about this problem and they said there is nothing I can do about it. I have never known a off and on light brighter than the night light. I feel there wasn't much thought when they designed it.
