Review on Floor fan Electrolux EFF-1004i, black by Stanislaw Kobylka (S ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not a bad product, nothing extraordinary.

Not a miracle. Perhaps, in other models, these problems have already been solved, but here in Lithuania, all online stores sell only this model. Its pros: Design is great! Very stylish. The lack of wheels is compensated by the carrying handle. Comfortable. Having a remote control makes life a lot easier. I really liked that the fan blades themselves are made of transparent plastic, when the fan is turned off, they are almost invisible. With its cons: For some reason, a sticker was stuck on the transparent blade with a warning not to stick your fingers into the grate. It is not clear who it is for: it would not occur to adults to shove their fingers in an unknown place, and children will not even look at this sticker. But when the fan is running, this white sticker draws a circle and attracts attention. A trifle, but annoying, which means you need to peel it off. The assembly instructions omitted the point that before attaching the gratings, you need to unscrew 2 fixing nuts, and one must be turned counterclockwise, and the second, which will fasten the blades, clockwise. This is where my husband and I "hung". This nut does not look like an ordinary nut, the threads are not visible, and it was not clear how to remove it, somehow I did not want to apply force to a plastic product. Thanks to the internet for helping. True, I didn’t find a video about assembling an Electrolux EFF - 1004i fan, I had to watch everything until I came across a video about assembling some cheap antediluvian fan, but the grill fasteners turned out to be similar and the man said: “And this nut must be turned clockwise !". It was good advice. There is a slight runout of the blades. Reinstalled, rotated 180 degrees, decreased. There are 6 speeds, but I realized that one is enough for me personally - the first, because if you turn on the 6th speed, it starts to blow away and the noise is the same as at the airport or on a busy highway. so here the manufacturer is too clever. There are 3 modes of operation, but when you turn on the "natural" or "sleep" mode at the 1st speed, the rumble of the motor is added to the rustle of the air, not strong, but there is. During the day, when the level of general noise is higher, it is not so noticeable, and at night, when life is calm around, this rumble becomes very intrusive for people with good hearing. That is why the manufacturer writes "reduced noise level", the key word is "reduced", i. E. the noise was very loud, it was lowered, but it did not become quiet. Well, in conclusion - when turned on, the fan always starts at the 5th speed. Does not remember, settings are not programmed.
