Well, it is indeed a very powerful fan. It kept my room fairly cool despite my window being closed.
However, its just WAY too loud even at its lowest setting. I honestly dont know how people can sleep through the noise. Its definitely quieter than the other high velocity floor fans Ive tried, but its still way too loud in any case.
Im kind of iffy about the metal blade, the edges are SO sharp. They didnt even sand it down or anything. It made me feel very uneasy and paranoid. Freak accidents do happen, you know. and with this being a powerful fan. oh my goodness. Scary.
Just like what another reviewer said, it made a very strange high/pitched sound that also made me question the fans durability. I tried loosening and tightening the screw that held the fan blade. Doing so didnt make much of a difference, unfortunately.
If that wasnt bad enough, it also gave off a very strange burning smell; the odors as if it was mixed with sweat, iron, oil/machine lubricant, and rust. It smelled fairly awful, unpleasant, and off/putting. Im going to return this fan, of course. I had high hopes for it, but Im severely disappointed.
Uh.
