Lasko Outdoor Living Oscillating Tower Fan, for Decks, Patios and Porches, 10 Foot Power Cord, 4 Refreshing Speeds, 42", Beige, YF202

This fan is amazing. I have been looking so long to find something that didn’t take up a ton of room. That would look nice on our lanai and also had good performance. This fan checks all of that. We have a very large lanai. But no ceiling fan supports. It gets too hot during the summer in Florida without air movement.I was so excited to find a tower fan that’s weather resistant. So I took a chance.First. The appearance. It looks really nice. The front is a tan/taupe color with a brushed nickel accent running down the side. The back and base is in gray. It looks very expensive for an outdoor fan.Now the performance. This fan moves some serious air. I can feel it. And see our plants blowing if it’s on high over 15 ft away. It has 4 speeds. Obviously there is some fan noise if it’s on high. It’s the air moving. I saw some people complain about that. Not sure how anyone could make a fan this powerful without hearing the air move. I actually like it. It’s soothing. However on high is about the only setting you can really hear air moving. And again it’s not loud. Just powerful. The other three speeds are pretty quiet. And still move a lot of air. The lowest setting is silent. But you can still feel air moving. I actually prefer this fan over ceiling fans. The amount of air it moves would never be able to come from a ceiling fan.Now the oscillation. People complained about this to. Most tower fans swivel the entire unit. This one does not. The fan itself does not move. But the internal grate inside does go from side to side. And it is enough movement that it covers over 8ft of left to right air movement. You can really tell. So I’m not sure what the complaint is with that. I’m assuming it was done this way to make the fan more weather resistant.The other complaint I saw was people saying the area the air comes out isn’t the whole front of the fan like most towers. That is true. However. It is 20 times stronger airflow out of that area than the strongest tower fan I’ve ever seen. I’m assuming it was designed like this intentionally for concentrated air flow. As well as rain durability. I actually prefer it in a setting where you need powerful air flow.There is no remote. Which I personally don’t care. Very nice simple lighted controls right on the front.If youre on the fence buy it. It’s a great fan. It really cuts the heat down. Even in direct sun. I love it. And we have a happy pup who lays in front of it almost all day now. Before she couldn’t stay out long. Now we cant get her in.

Bought this for an outdoor covered area that faces west and therefore gets very warm in the hot afternoon sun. Some of the reviews indicated the airflow may not be great but I have found this to be a simple 5-minutes assembly-to-operational use (removing packaging and breaking down the box it came in included) and a great fan for airflow at least 5-8' away when on the highest setting. There are 4 settings and they are efficient with airflow consistent with the setting type selected. The casing is hard durable plastic, the stand sturdy and a quick "snap" in place for use. Handle on top allows easy adult location movement of the fan, although it is somewhat of a "lug" to move around. Although the product is actually 41.5" x 7.5" in size, the actual fan portion for airflow is in the upper top section and only 8" for blowing airflow (actual cooling). Therefore, it works better for an area where people are sitting. Note: This is a stationery fan. It does not oscillate and therefore it does not move back and forth to distribute air. It is only one-directional - straight ahead. This should be considered before purchasing to assure you are getting the type of fan that works for which you intend.

The fan is good and value for money. It’s good for outdoor use. The only limitation is narrow passage of air flow due to small air vent.

Ordered this for our covered outdoor patio and it works wonderfully. Helps keep it cool and keeps those annoying bugs at bay! Also nice and quiet even on the mid-level speeds!

This is a great fan. I use it at my pool tiki bar. It provides plenty of air even on the lowest setting and the oscillating feature is a plus. The built in breaker and ten feet of heavy duty power cord insures safety outdoors. I'm glad I got this one.

I love this fan. I did not think it was noisy. I love sitting outside with my dogs and one of them is very afraid of loud fans but this does not bother him. It’s very sturdy and won’t be easy to knock over like my stick fan. Very happy with this.

It’s a good indoor fan. It will definitely blast you cool, but I bought it to be an outdoor fan to blast cool air outside in the summers to cool outside feral pets and it only blew hot air outside.

Have had this for at least 2 years and it works well, putting out a lot of air. The base is sturdy and the controls are easy to access. I use it outside when there is no breeze and it's very refreshing.
