Review on Pelonis FS40-19PRD White 16-Inch Pedestal Fan: Ultra Quiet, Energy Efficient, 12-Hour Timer, Remote Control, Adjustable Height for Sleeping & Baby by Maria Robertson

I'll focus on the key points in this review that I think most people care about: * Assembly could be easier, but it's a one-time job and doesn't take long * There are 12 speeds for fine-tuning airflow and they're more useful than expected* At the highest setting, fan noise is certainly audible, but much quieter than usual given the strong airflow.* The nature of the noise is worth noting, as some of it can be annoying. It's actually quite nice as you mostly hear the wind. Ideal for use in the bedroom. * The rocking function is electric, it's too fast and wide, but gets the job done. * It's a bit pricey but appears to be of good quality, solid construction etc. * Our larger 18" Lasko blows more air but is noticeably louder * Batteries for the remote control are not included but it is IR, controls everything and works fine. , quiet and good airflow. You will spend more than a cheap fan at your local department store, but you get what you pay for.
