Master Professional 12 inch High Velocity Powerful Direct Drive Steel Floor Fan

Quiet & powerful, exactly what you want from a fan, delivers good pressure ... No issues pushing cool air up the staircase to the second floor of my house The MASTER 20 Inch Industrial High Velocity Floor Fan - Direct Drive Fan ----> B01N9V1MHF Good pressure developed by this fan, pressure was better than with another fan that was 24 inches - see my reviews Quiet enough to use in your house, good enough to use for work Not difficult to assemble. Reasonably sturdy Easy to move. Ball bearing motor is a big plus & I expect it to last for years --> Equipment used for testing was Not calibrated ... reference numbers Only --->FPM - measured with hand held 3 inch diameter FLORITE 0 -1000 feet per minute gauge --> measured @ 10 feet in front of fan & 1.5 to 2 feet above the floor for max observed FPM measurements --> Low speed@10ft 450/fpm --> Med speed@10ft 550/fpm --> High speed@10ft 650/fpm Sound levels measured with Radio Shack Sound Level Meter cat 33-2055 ... settings used: --> Response = Fast --> Weighting = db C Sound levels observed 3 ft behind the fan - to minimize buffeting background noise from moving air --> Small changes in db C represent a very Large increase in Noise .. do a web search on it. --> Low speed = (below 50 dbC ... did not register on my meter) that is quiet for a fan ! ---> so I moved sound meter toward the fan & made it to only 16 inches - before meter registereded 50 db C --> Med speed = 51 dbC --> High speed = 54 dbC I've bought cheaper sleeved bearing fans in the past & they always became noisy & eventually stop working. Only 1 slight negative: The angle adjustment locking nuts, uses a plastic tool (handle) that comes with the fan. The silicone covers that you place over the nuts, are not the tightest fit, and can become dislodged quite easily - though they are easily put back On the fan. I prefer the angle adjustment knobs that are all in one ... nothing to loose Final thoughts about this fan? ..... I bought a second one

I only received this fan yesterday, so my review is only based on how well it works, not its longevity. Situation: Top floor apt w/ central air & gas oven (emits a constant heat) and a 97F heat-wave - high humidity - for the past week. By 2pm, w the sun beating down on the roof, the apt is around 82F even with the thermostat set @ 70F (can't wait for the energy bill). In addition we have ferrets - these critters cannot take temps much higher than 85F w/o risking their health. After much sweating, pet lethargy and spousal complaints, I decided to order a fan. Once I pulled it out of the box and turned it on, I kicked myself for not ordering this sooner. PROS: *POWERFUL. Not only does this small fan push the air pretty far (I was 16 ft away & still felt the breeze), but the air is noticeably cooler. I know, I know, fans don't 'cool' the air, just move it...except this one does. Maybe it's sheer force, maybe it's magic (ha) but whatever powers are at play, the result is much cooler air. I actually put our thermostat up to 80F to give the HVAC unit a break. Even with the air essentially off, my husband put the fan on low after a while bc he got 'cold'. *SMALL. This fan only comes to the top of my knee-cap (for reference, I am a 5'5" female). Great for people who don't have a lot of storage options. It's sturdy but lightweight - almost anyone (thinking of elderly people) will be able to easily lift it by the handle and move it where needed. It doesn't oscilate, but it can be tilted up/down depending on your needs. *WELL-BUILT. I initially liked this fan bc metal seemed more durable in the long run than plastic. Again, I can't attest to its longevity, but it feels/looks solidly built. It has 4 large silver buttons - bottom is on/off, then low-high as you go up. Nice and simple. The cord is quite thick - much like a cord found on a surge protector power-strip. Note: After 3 hours on high and one on low, the fan's motor was not warm to the touch (always something to consider). *SOUND. I read some reviews that claimed this fan is too loud (which is why I hesitated on purchasing) but it's not an issue for me. If you've ever had a 'cool down' fan kick on for your computer or gaming console, that's about the level of noise you can expect when this fan is on the high setting. I can put this in the ferret's room if need be and they won't be bothered (aka: wake up and want OUT of their cage) about the noise. We watched TV with the fan on high in the same room and there wasn't any problem. CONS: COST. Honestly, this really isn't a 'con' if this fan keeps performing well and lasts as long as I'm hoping it will. But for people on a budget, I can see the cost being a deterrent. For this fan, I think the quality is well worth the price. 100% I would recommend this product. In fact I'm considering ordering one for my mom & another one for myself (so the humans don't have to share with the ferrets). SIDE NOTE: if you have curious pets (dogs, cats, ferrets, bunnies, etc) or small children crawling/toddling around - I would NOT recommend using this on the floor while they are out and about!! Those metal blades won't be fun for fingers, paws, noses or tails!!! I simply tucked the fan in our closet when I released the beasts from their cage this morning. Using it on a counter top would also work...for all but the cats, anyway. :)

I have a situation with a small room at the top of the house that has plenty of windows and there is a breeze outside. The breeze just doesn't connect and blow through. A lot of hot air ends up collecting in this room. Other fans I've tried didn't work. This one works like a champ! It not only connects so that the breeze has more throughway, it keeps the air in this small room continually circulating. There is some noise, it's not loud or awful and I would expect this from any fan with this much power. I generally keep it on low. If it's a hot day, sometimes bump it up to medium. I've only turned it on high thus far a couple times when it's a really hot day and there's no breeze coming in from outside. It's basically turned what was a real drudge on a hot day to being enjoyable and bearable (I don't have AC in this room). Highly recommended.

This was a great price for a strong out put fan. Blows hard works great for hurricanes or when power is out. Good price.

Fans ..... there are so many that make the claim that it is powerful and will cool down a room, BALONEY! As I have been as so many others, buying a fan based on the reviews and the company spiel about their product, again BALONEY! When I saw this fan it looks different, it is all metal construction and it has the heavy duty motor, I was interested, so I purchased it, believing another fan for return, it arrived and I looked it over, extremely well made and very well designed. I plugged it in and goodbye BALONEY, it blew all the lying reviews and companies spiel right out of the house. If you want a fan that blows and cools this is the fan for you! Yes it has some noise to it, how do expect to move large quality of air, if you are one of those folks who do not like noise when sleeping, I say stay hot and sweat. I on the other hand will gladly have the noise and have a cool and breezy solid sleep :) If I could I would have only this company's fans for sell, this is the true fan and it is worth every penny, I have three of them and no one who sleeps in our home is very hot, sweaty, or miserable due to the heat. Guests and friends stay over and enjoy the comfort and I have seen many fans ordered after spending time in our home. the fans have three speeds so it hits all the different people who do not like high speed air volume. Buy it and you will be very, very glad you did.

Se ve bien. Pero no tiene mucha fuerza echa poco aire.

Muy buena potencia aunque el interruptor es distinto a la foto

I’m pretty sure this is the best thing I have ever ordered off of Amazon.

Es más pequeño de lo que se espera, buen flujo de aire y poco ruido, pero se rompió de una de las manijas para ajustar. Muy frágil. Para el precio que tiene es decepcionante
