Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan with Remote, Quiet Floor Fans for Bedroom, 42", Silver T42951

Let me tell you about my experience with the Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan, and why I think it deserves a 5-star rating.First off, let me just say that I have been through my fair share of fans. From the cheap, flimsy ones that barely produce any breeze, to the bulky, noisy ones that are impossible to sleep next to. So when I stumbled upon the Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan, I was cautiously optimistic. But let me tell you, this fan did not disappoint.From the moment I took it out of the box, I knew this was going to be different. The sleek silver design is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it also looks and feels incredibly sturdy. And with a height of 42 inches, it's the perfect size for my bedroom.But what really sets this fan apart is its functionality. The remote control makes it so easy to adjust the settings from across the room, and the timer feature is a game-changer. I no longer have to worry about falling asleep with the fan on all night and waking up freezing. I can set it for 2, 4, or 8 hours and know that it will automatically turn off when I want it to.And the best part? This fan is QUIET. I mean, really quiet. Even on the highest setting, it produces a gentle hum that's actually soothing to fall asleep to. I no longer have to choose between sweating in my sleep or being kept awake by a noisy fan.But let me tell you, the true test of this fan came during a recent heatwave. I live in a third-floor apartment with no AC, so things can get pretty toasty in the summer. I was sweating through the night and couldn't get comfortable no matter how many times I flipped my pillow. That is, until I turned on my Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan.Within minutes, the cool breeze had me feeling like I was sleeping in a luxurious hotel room. I fell asleep faster and slept more soundly than I had in weeks. And when I woke up, I wasn't sweating through my sheets or feeling like a zombie from lack of sleep. I felt refreshed and ready to tackle the day.But let's talk about the oscillating feature for a minute. I love that it can be adjusted to cover a wide or narrow area, depending on my needs. And the fact that it oscillates means that the cool air is constantly circulating throughout the room, so there are no hot spots or stagnant air.I have to mention the price. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan is very affordable, especially considering its quality and functionality. I've spent more money on fans that didn't work half as well as this one.Now, let's talk about the setup. It was incredibly easy to assemble and took me less than 10 minutes to put it together. The instructions were straightforward and all the pieces fit perfectly, so I didn't have to struggle or curse my way through the process. And once it was assembled, I was blown away (pun intended) by how good it looked.The tower design is sleek and modern, and it seamlessly blends into any room decor. I love that it doesn't take up much space and can be placed in a corner without obstructing anything. And the silver finish adds a touch of sophistication to my living room.But let's not forget about the real reason why we buy fans - to keep us cool. And the Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan delivers in spades. It has three different speed settings, which I appreciate because sometimes I just need a gentle breeze to keep me comfortable. And the air flow is strong enough to cool me down on the hottest days, but not so strong that it feels like a hurricane is blowing through my apartment.And like the previous reviewer mentioned, the timer and remote control features are a godsend. I love that I can set the fan to turn off after a certain amount of time, so I don't have to worry about wasting energy or waking up freezing in the middle of the night. And the remote control means that I can adjust the settings without having to get up from the couch or my bed.Overall, I would highly recommend the Lasko Oscillating Tower Fan to anyone in the market for a new fan. It's functional, stylish, and most importantly, it gets the job done without being a nuisance. It's the perfect addition to any bedroom, living room, or office. So go ahead and treat yourself to the best damn fan on the market. You won't regret it.

My apartment sadly doesn't have cooling and with the hot summer going on, I decided to buy this to help keep me cool. It's overall been a great product that I've been using daily with no issues so far.I actually found a surprising amount of convenience with the remote it comes with. I use the remote for when I have guests and have to place the fan in a more centralized location to cool everyone down. You can control every feature on the fan with this remote, so it's been surprisingly handy for times when my fan is across the room from my desk and I want to turn it on, change fan speed, oscillate, and etc.The three fan speeds are adequate. My apartment has a 500 square foot main room and I can feel a nice wind from the fan on setting 3 when seated in the opposite corner of the room. Setting 2 can still push air across the room, I only use it for the miraculous days that don't break 85+ degrees. And setting 1 is perfect for having the fan near you and is the speed I usually always have it set to.I have no idea if the Ionizer really does anything. I don't have pets, don't smoke, and I don't live in a busy city so I haven't noticed any difference in the quality of air. But I leave it on all the time when the fan is running anyway because I actually like the little blue light that comes on haha.It also has timer settings from 0.5hr to 7.5hrs, in half hour increments, but I keep the fan running at all times when I'm home so I never used this feature. Cycling through the timers is kind of annoying because there are 15 possible combinations when setting the timer which you cycle through by pressing one button. So if you miss the time you want or accidentally turn the timer on when you didn't mean to, you have to cycle through every combination until you get back to the one you wanted. Kind of annoying, but I don't use the timer so it doesn't bother me personally.Overall build quality of the fan is decent. It's all plastic and does require a little bit of construction out of the box. The only construction is just a few screws which secure the base to the fan - super easy. The plastic and construction does feel a bit on the cheaper side. Even with the screws tightened down, the tower does still have some wobble if I bump into the fan or am operating the buttons on the fan itself. But it does not wobble, creak, or anything when oscillating so again, I don't mind. The only time I even touch the fan is when I'm relocating it for guests.Lastly, like I said earlier, I leave this fan on constantly when I'm home - in setting 1 when I'm alone and setting 3 when guests are over. Despite this, its "power consumption footprint" is so small that I do not notice it when paying my power bill. Of course, it is just a fan so I wouldn't expect it to raise my power bill more than a couple of dollars, but whatever the added running cost is - it is so small that I consider it negligible. Also fan noise isn't bad at all. When I'm alone, setting 1 provides a good amount of white noise in the background. Music, videos, or any other sound I make isn't overwhelmed by this fan running less than 3 feet away from me. When I have company, a normal conversation is enough to drown out the noise this fan makes even on setting 3.Overall, I'm really enjoying this fan and it's helped keep me cool on these hot summer days.

Lasko is my favorite brand of fans...I have been buying them for years. Started with box fans. These fans ran for hours daily, some 24 hrs a day year round. They lasted for years....as many as 7. So I was delighted to find a Lasko tower fan. Lives up to the name....very quiet with lots of air movement!!!
