Customer Reviews

Excellent product!5
The 16 inch fan keeps the air circulating better than a ceiling fan. In warmer weather with the fan going and the windows open the apartment is pleasantly cool and comfortable. I live in the Pacific NW and have a large studio apartment. It keeps the entire living, dining area very comfortable. I've ordered an second one for the kitchen area.It is extremely quiet and efficient. Being wall mounted just below ceiling level,the air from it will not blow directly on your food cooling it quickly as a ceiling fan would. Storage is unnecessary, it remains on the wall year round leaving floor space free, with no cords to trip over. Great product and great price!

Excellent fan5
I installed this in my living room that has a vaulted ceiling. Right now it's 95f with high humidity here in Memphis. It complements the air conditioning well and is as quiet as a fan could be. I like it so much I bought the 12" version to go in my bedroom.

Lasko 16" 3-Speed Reversible Window Fan5
I've had a lot of window fans before but none have cooled nearly as well as the Lasko 16" window fan. The fan is solidly constructed with sturdy plastic side panels and a easy to turn on/off speed selection knob.Particularly nice is the exhaust feature on this fan,which cleared a smokey kitchen in mere seconds.

A Good Fan5
I purchased this fan 15 years ago and replaced it with another one this past summer because the old one clonked out on me. What I noticed about this new one is it has a different blade from the older model. It is also quieter and more powerful than the older model. I did not bother with the Storm Guard feature of screwing the fan in the window for safety reasons. If in the event of a fire and the window was my only means of getting out, the fan would get in the way. The fan takes up a lot of window space, so if you are one of those people who like your outdoor view, do not purchase this fan. If you want a fan that is powerful and will last for a good number of years, this is the fan for you.

Disappointing3
I thought I would try this fan as a replacement for my Lakewood 18-inch window fan, which looks almost exactly the same in the ads. I have gone through three of the Lakewood fans over the last 18 years, and they were great for drawing cool air through my entire house. Unfortunately, the Lasko fan is less than half as powerful (0.83 amps vs. 2.0 amps). The high speed on this fan produces about as much wind as the low speed on the Lakewood fan. I will be returning this fan.

Powerful fan..a little noisy4
I bought this fan for my daughter to use in her bedroom. She has an upstairs room and even though we have two seperate A/C units, her room gets very warm in the summer.

We looked at A LOT of different types of oscillating fans before deciding on this Wind Curve. It is a very powerful fan..circulates air well, cools the air very well. It also comes with a remote control that she can keep on her nightstand. It takes up very little space in her room, which was a great feature.

The only downside is that it is a bit noisy. Although it is the quietest of all the ones we looked at.

Overall, I highly recommend it.

Great product, great delivery4
I purchased this fan to replace a Honeywell tower fan that fell apart on us. This fan is QUIET, sturdy (no skinny stand!), and powerful. Just what we needed. Remote control works perfectly. Only issue is with the blue light which signifies the ionizer is on - be prepared if you use it in your bedroom at night - when you turn out your lights the blue light looks like a freight train charging through your house - VERY BRIGHT!! Can be fixed by applying a small piece of black electrical tape over the light...ahhh. Great fan overall, worth the extra cash.

FYI - Honeywell has a bad design of a wide base with a skinny stand and heavy tower on top. After about a year of use, the Honeywell fan started squeaking when we had it on occillation and broke from the base due to the torque on the stand. Don't buy a tower fan with a skinny stand if you want it to last!

Exceptional bonus: I ordered this fan at 4:30 Pm on Day 1 and it was at my front door at noon on Day 2!!! Amazing - still not sure what Amazon's secret is for such quick deliveries, but keep up the great work...

Wind Curve Platinum fan5
Great fan. Wonderful cool breeze. Works well and nice styling. Compact. Remote also a plus

Customer Reviews

excellent product,great also for blocking out noise5
This is an excellent product. Sturdy,I have used it every night for at least 8 hours for the past year. It moves a large amount of air, and is very,noisy.Its electric use in minimal,which is another bonus. It is also very good for blocking out noise from neighbors.For this price, this is an excellent buy.I have never owned a better box fan, and I have purchased literally scores through the years.

Lasko 20" Box fan5
I've purchased a larger Lasko fan here at Amazon,and was pleased to find that this 20 " box fan is of the same excellent quality as the larger models in the product line

This a very sturdily constructed fan, the plastic grill is nice and thick,the control knob is also nice and sturdy and easy to turn.The fan is very quiet and moves quite a bit of air. This is a much better fan than those $19.99 numbers you see in stores during the summer...so for the same price why not get the best ?

The stylish elegance grill blends into the surrounding décor, while three whisper-quiet speeds deliver comforting winds. With fully adjustable height, optional oscillation, and adjustable tilt-back - it's a great fan for the great room.


Customer Reviews

excellent value for cooling down and saving energy at once5
This three speed adjustable oscillating pedestal fan by Lasko is exactly the way it is advertised. The three speeds all operate smoothly and the fan gets the air circulating rather quickly. Setup is a breeze, the instructions are clear and there are no tools required for the setup.

The price is right for what you get: my own fan is just about one year old now and it still works strong and hard to create good air flow. This wonderful fan also cools the room down on days when you can't use an air conditioner or when you simply don't want to use one. The fan can either oscillate or stand still blowing air constantly in one direction--and that's great to have this choice. I usually let it oscillate to get the maximum amount of air flowing throughout the room. The head of the fan does tilt back just as they say it does; but I wouldn't tilt it back all the way--it just doesn't feel like it could stay that way too long without the risk of falling over. I could be wrong; but that's the sense I get.

I recommend that the fan stand between four feet to maximum height (which is almost six feet) so that the air current it creates reaches you whether you're lying down or walking around the room.

One important feature: this fan can save you money, especially over the long run. It is rather economical to use in that it won't make your electric bill spike sharply upward the way an electric air conditioner would. It does make some noise but not too much noise; the noise actually helps me fall asleep and that's a great extra plus from this fan!

The fan comes with a limited warranty for one year just as noted above; but I highly doubt that you'll need to use it. This fan is built to last--certainly more than just one year!

Overall, this is a great fan and I highly recommend it as just about the best fan out there in this size and price range. It will not disappoint you.

Moves air perfectly. Too Loud!4
This fan moves air around perfectly. On those hot summer evenings w/ your A/C blowing, this fan becomes the perfect compliment. Just one thing. This fan is a little loud. If you put the speed seeting to a one, the sound is exceptable but still quite loud. Don't put the setting on 2 or 3 unless you have ear plugs because it sounds like a freight train going through your house and your ears may begin to bleed(lol). Other than that, this fan is great! i would certainly recommend it.

Lasko 1820 Pedestal Fan4
I purchased this fan a month or so ago and it runs all day without a problem. I was concerned as reviewers had complained about a sound that came from it so far it doesn't really bother me I got used to it pretty quickly.
I wasn't too happy to see that the cage that fits over the fan itself is made of plastic instead of metal. I didn't have much trouble snapping it in place but I am going to have to be careful when I put it away for the winter that it doesn't get knocked or bumped into because the plastic cage could break and that would be pretty much it if a large chunk of it broke. The plastic cage is the only thing I would say would be a problem other than that it is a decent fan for the price.

Customer Reviews

Saved from the hot spell4
When it came time to turn my neighbor on to this fan I was distressed to read the two reviews that were already published (both from purchasers who obtained theirs from other stores?). Last year I purchased two of these for my apartment in San Diego . . . and then the longest, hottest two weeks that we have seen in years hit. These two were operating 24/7, moved around a lot, etc. and worked flawlessly. They never got put away and I have used them to circulate air during the Winter as well and they are still cooking along flawlessly. That's not one, but two, and they work and last great!

Nice while it lasted...2
As with the reviewer above, I purchased this fan from another store and it worked well at first. The remote was a nice touch and the fan speeds and settings worked well. However within 4 months of owning it, when we tried to have it rotate, it turns slightly, gets stuck, and proceeds to just make a clicking sound until you stop it from rotating. Needless to say it no longer rotates, so it is now just a stationary fan. I even tried taking it apart to unjam it, but came to discover that the rotating gear was already worn down and that was the problem, so without new parts it could not be fixed. Buy another fan if you want it to last, I know I am.

Most Quiet Tower Fan4
We purchased a Honeywell Tower Fan and this Lasko fan. We use the Lasko in the bedroom. What a difference it is from a box fan. It is very very quiet. The sleep setting is perfect because you can choose how long to have it running after you go to bed. Even if we keep it on all night, I wake up in the morning not feeling like I've listening to a fan roar all night long. We can't use it on ocillate - it makes a sound when it goes back and forth. Even so, it still gives us both (and 2 dogs!) plenty of direct air flow without the ocillation feature. I JUST bought another for my office.

Lasko Wind Tower 2517 Fan5
We just bought this today and it is great. We had a Holmes Pedestal Fan that just gave out after about 10 years. It is down in our basement and seems to cool down the room nice. It is on low speed right now and feels great. We aren't way across the room but even on the high it seems to put out a good breeze, not an industrial speed but great for a regular room. We bought it at Walmart for $39.99 + tax so I wouldn't buy for more.

Fan of this fan5
This is the fifth Lasko tower fan I've purchased. I got one for my brother, my son and my grandma. It is quiet, which is awesome for my OCD brother who hates loud sounds. It has amazing cooling power, which helps my son who doesn't have AC in his room. And my grandma who can't walk loves that she can control it with the remote. The tower design allows you to put it anywhere and it looks nicer and has much more power than a stand fan.

Better than more expensive fans5
This is a great fan, very quiet but very powerful. I use it usually on the medium setting because on the high setting it will blow your socks off. The rotating action keeps my wife and me cooled. The remote of course is convenient.

Product Description

Customer Reviews

Nice quiet fan.4
I bought this fan to help cool the guts of our 5 year old Toshiba rear projection TV. The TV has had to be fixed several times and the components that are going bad are on a heat sink which leads me to believe they're burning up prematurely do the excessive heat.

This fan was recommended by my brother who also uses one to cool his home theatre and gave me rave reviews on the amount of air it moves and the amount of noise - or lack thereof.

It's a pretty heavy fan for it's size and I think it moves a pretty good amount of air despite of some of the other reviews. It's ideal for cooling stereo and home theatre components due to it's smaller footprint and the ability to tilt it up and down. Air is taken in through a series of small holes on each of the fan. This is what some call a "squirrel cage" fan. It has a long cord and a knob on the back for OFF, LOW, and HIGH.

It's quiet enough that we don't notice it when watching TV.

Its a fan...4
It works for what I want. Its small and fits on my desk well. On low it makes hardly any noise. On high it sounds like any other fan would. Its made of cheap plastic, but as long as it works, thats all that really matters.

Quiet, perfect for office use4
I keep this fan at my desk at work, and I think it is perfect for that. The Low setting is practically silent (similar noise to some CPU fans). It doesn't move a ton of air at this setting, but it is definitely sufficient for an office where we have AC anyway. My one complaint would be that the High setting is significantly louder, so I keep mine on Low all the time.

Perfect fan for a small office space5
The Lasko 4000 Oscillating Ultra Slim Fan is perfect for circulating cool air in a small office space. The fan easy fits on a small computer desk, circulates air quietly, and has the benefit of a low and high speed. The slim, small size makes this fan unobtrusive. Very satisfied.

Quietest fan ever!5
I was pleasantly surprised with this purchase. After trying to find a fan for my office that was quiet, yet still effective, I finally found the perfect match. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a fan to cool down a small space, such as an office or small bedroom.

Nice slim fan5
I used this as a fan between my aquarium surface and the lights above where I needed the slim profile. Don't need/can't use the oscillating feature. The push-button on/off is nice. They are a little noisy when on high speed (2 speeds), but not too bad.

Best Floor Fan Ever!5
We ordered this fan after reading another on-line review. It lives up to its reputation....it is very quiet and gives a good strong breeze when needed. It works so well that it almost feels like it has an 'air conditioning' effect. We love it and would recommend that you purchase this model if you are looking for a silent, strong fan that takes up very little space.

Lasko floor fan5
I purchased my first fan in 2003. This fan has ALOT of power. You will feel the fan blowing on any of the 3 settings, unlike many other floor or stand fans, which lack power.

Took it to our annual Hula show (Ho'ike) and the ladies were so grateful for me bringing this fan in our changing/dressing rooms. (They always forget to turn the A/C on while we're getting dressed).

I Couldn't find it any where here in Washington State, so I searched the internet. I'm now adding 2 more of these fans to our household.
Love it! Love it! Love it!

ONE GREAT FAN!!5
This fan was in a cabana I rented for a day by the pool on a day in Florda that hit 93 degrees...I thought I actually had air conditioning outdoors. This fan is QUIET, you can use the oscillation or not. It has 3 speeds (low, med or high). It is quiet at all speeds. It truly made a hot, humid day very comfortable. I tried locating this fan at local stores and couldn't find it, so I was excited to see Amazon had it for sale. You will not be disappointed. It is about $20 more expensive than similar models, but I actually tested this one in the cabana and I was sold. You are not going to regret it!!
