Review on ๐ŸŒ€ Hurricane 20 Inch Pro Series High Velocity Heavy Duty Metal Wall Mount Fan - Ideal for Industrial, Commercial, Residential, and Greenhouse Use - ETL Listed, Black by Jessica Thomas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm good with them. Well, maybe not.

True, these aren't "high velocity" fans, but they don't have motors of the size and volume of jet fans either. They're good fans, move air well, and are fairly quiet - meaning you can have a conversation next to them without yelling or even raising your voice above normal conversational levels. You can get hearing problems when you whisper. They're also pretty easy to install. Mounting brackets and a keyhole for the top screws allow you to temporarily hang it to reduce weight while inserting the bottom screws, and then finish by screwing in the top screws the rest of the way home. BE CAREFUL WHEN OPERATING THE ELEVATOR CONTROL KNOB. Make sure it is fully screwed in before pulling it out (turn clockwise to tighten). One of mine broke off in my hand when I pulled it a second time, but I screwed it back in easily enough. I highly recommend turning off the fan before pulling or pressing the spin button - while the fan is running, it won't work properly. In general, they are not bad fans. I'm good with them. September. 8 update (just under 3 months of heavy use) - Hmmm not sure now as one of them started misbehaving. When oscillating, the fan switches off (short circuit?) when it reaches the right peak point. The momentum of the fan blade holds the oscillating screw and turns the fan to the left just far enough to turn the motor back on, but it's a constant off, on, off, every time it turns all the way to the right. . This is annoying but also worrying as it could very well be caused by a short in the wiring. I have disabled generation and am looking for information on how to replace this fan. The other (I bought two) seems to work fine.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Some bugs
