A New Twist in Desktop Fans
I was looking for a desktop fan with a compact footprint.
I checked out the Vornado Flippies, of which only two were on display in my local store, one a little $20 model and the other a fancy $70 model with remote control. The $20 unit didn't move enough air for my purposes, and the $70 model was a bit pricey for the function. And why does one need a remote control for a personal fan to be used within arm's length any way?
Then I saw this little Lasko, and it filled the bill. Totally silent in operation, providing sufficient air output for a desktop fan, and priced right at under $25. With oscillation and the unique twist design, which lets you broaden or narrow the air flow as suits your purpose, both thrown in for good measure.
The Lasko offers three speeds, but I will probably use high speed most of the time.
The build quality appears to be good, with a robust power cord and illuminated push buttons controlling on/off/fan speed and...
My Fan favorite
I have used many fans on my desk at work and have found this fan to be the best. The oscillation feature is nice but not necessary since the airflow produced is more than adequate. Very pleased about the little noice it makes even on the highest setting and the small amount of space it takes up is great.
Handy Little Fan
Having the two segments that distribute air in different directions is pretty neat as is the oscillating feature. However, the wife just uses it with each segment pointed at her with no oscillation as a little bedside personal fan. She is pleased with it.
