Customer Reviews

Great, dynamic fan5
This is a great fan. The top head can be positioned about 45 degrees away from the lower one for multiple users. There are three settings accessed by pressing the power button for high, medium, and low. The one other button is an oscillation button. Works right out of the box, and is fairly quiet, especially on its lower settings. Stands about the height of a computer screen. I enjoy it on hot summer days, or after i have been sweating from exercise.

Pretty good fan5
I bought this fan for a co-worker that had a loud annoying little fan. This is nice and quiet (unless on the high power can be a little noticable). Doesn't blow papers around and gives a nice cool breeze. Its a little tall, about 1 foot, so it can be obstructing if you are sitting in a cube with low walls.

Excellent product5
The Platinum Desktop Wind Tower provides a cool blast of air at the touch of a button. The fan is strong enough to cool but does not blow papers off the desk. It fits in a small space on the desk. The on/off, power level and movement buttons are intuitive. It has worked reliably. The price in the twenty dollar range is a bargain. I highly recommend Platinum Desktop Wind Tower for anyone who needs cool air at their desk.

Customer Reviews

Over 12,000 hours of dependable operation...5
While checking Amazon in the course of recommending this fan to a friend, I was surprised by the mediocre rating people had given it and decided to add my experience to the reviews. Like Richard Shrum above, I'm confused about what fan some of the negative reviewers were talking about. A few of their comments don't seem to compute with the fan I own, which has 3720 marked on its frame, matches the picture above, and is listed on Lasco's website.

I've owned mine since April 2005 and have run it as a window fan (on low) from eight to eighteen hours a day, for about 325 days each year, and it still operates as well as it did on day one. With this kind of use, I've sort of expected something to go wrong or burn out, but nothing has. All I've had to do is turn it on, turn it off, and clean it every four or five months - a fifteen minute chore.

As I was writing this, I got to wondering just what my use actually amounted to. Based on very conservative estimates, I figure my fan has run about 3700 hours each year, or about 12,200 hours since I bought it. Impressive as that figure is, get this - since the fan runs at 635 RPM on the low setting, that means the fan's motor, bearing, and blade have revolved over 460 million times and still counting! (Check my math if you want, I sure did: 635 x 60 x 12200 = 464,820,000.)

So I think you can see why, for me, this Lasco 3720 has been what all appliances should be, but seldom are: simple, effective, dependable, and reasonably priced. Who knows, maybe there have been quality control problems or production changes since I bought mine. Nevertheless, the basic design has worked exceptionally well for me, and I don't think you should overlook this model if it looks like the meets your requirements.

BEST FAN EVER!5
I buoght this fan at Wal- Mart and it is five dollars cheeper there than on amazon. I was looking at other reviewes and don't see how bad this fan is. It is super powerful. I love this fan! It does a great job circulating the air conditioning. THIS FAN BLOWS!

This Fan Really Blows...5
...and that's a good thing :)
The Lasko 3720 is a powerful fan with lots o' cooling power.
I am not sure what fan these two other "reviewers" bought,
but the one I purchased plainly says "Lasko" on it, and the
unit inside and what's on the cover of the box are the same thing!

Customer Reviews

Great fan5
This is a great fan. My wife uses it mainly for white noise while she sleeps, so it's out in our bedroom. It looks great and works great. The price on Amazon is the best I found.

Fan seems fine, except for that annoying beeping!3
I bought this fan for the bedroom. I thought the remote control would be useful for controlling the fan without getting out of bed. But unless you sleep along, it won't do you much good for this purpose... Every time you press a button on the fan or the remote, the fan emits a loud beep. If I were to turn the fan on/off, or adjust the speed, the beep would probably wake up my wife (or if she used it, she would wake me up).

If you don't plan on using this fan in the bedroom, at night, it seems like it would be a good fan. It is very powerful. It seems sturdy and well built. I would certainly keep it if it wasn't for the beeping, but that's a deal breaker for me. So, it's going back.

    quality fan that works5
    The Lasko 3300 20 inch Wind Machine, is a great fan. I have been using them in my office, warehouse, home and in an underground parking lot at the apartment I live in (and manage), for more than a decade. Using them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, they normally last 3 to 10 years each. I do wish there was a discount in shipping, when ordering in quantity.

    i don't need air conditioning anymore!5
    I bought this fan last week to tie me over before I replace my broken air conditioner.. turns out I would quickly become a big fan of this fan and forgo the a/c replacement job. We are in the middle of an NYC heatwave right now and sleeping with this fan feels like tropical luxury - serious! It's lightweight, quiet, cool, easy to tote, tilts up or down and saves me money!

    The Best Fan on the Market.5
    Before I finally installed air conditioning, I used this fan. In fact, I had two of them and used them for several years.

    This is the most powerful fan I've ever had. It runs silently. It really stirs up the air and cools the room.

    The three settings - low, medium and high - are achieved by turning a huge and easy to turn knob. You can tilt the fan up or down and than lock it into position using the knobs on the side. By placing one fan upward and another downward you'll get a wonderful and refreshing cross breeze.

    If you can't afford air conditioning or you live in an area that only needs a fan, you will love the WindMachine. I still use mine to dry clothes that I don't want to place in the drier. I hang them over the shower rod and turn the fan's setting to high. The clothes are dry within a couple of hours.
