Duronic Wall Fan FN55 Wall Mounted with Remote Control | 16 Inch Head | Timer Function | Cooling for Summer in The Home | Office

Works a treat. A great product for the price, it's good that you have a remote as then you don't need to move.

Hi there.This is the second one of these fans I have purchased in 18 months, so impressed with the first that I bought for my mother that I got myself one. Now if you check the bad reviews of this product, many of them are from folks that had difficulty assembling the item or on occasion had a part missing. Quite how this can be the case in terms of difficulty assembling when it has very few parts I am at a bit of a loss to understand when reading them.So, if you buy this fan, some tips for happy duronic fanning:1. Lay out all the parts, keep in mind you will have to undo a small holding screw that is holding the fanblade and cages together during transport. It seems many have come a cropper due to this.2. Take your time, assemble the fan from the bottom up.3. When it comes to the cage, put the back cage housing on BEFORE you put the fan blades on. Dont forget the nut to hold the cage on the motor housing, then pop your fan blades on.4. Remember, when putting the fan blades on, the fan blade nut tightens counter clockwise.5. When putting on front cage section, do not adjust the rubber strap. Just pop the strap on the front cage section over its lip, hold that up to the back part and you can pull the rubber strap over both cage sections lips. After that you can tighten it via the adjustment screw if needed but it should be pretty ok as it is, unless yours came real lose but the two I bought were fine, no adjustment needed.Missing parts:This happens to many a seller and product, it's life. The fact that people wasted their time and money and carbon emissions sending items like this back for a missing part (as can be seen in reviews) is just bonkers to my mind.My second fan turned up with a missing nut to hold the back part of the cage on the motor housing. I contacted duronics here and told them of a missing part. I expected 48 to 72hrs for a reply but I got one within 12hours of sending, they apologised and sent over an exploded diagram of the fan with the parts you get sent and numbers on them. I sent back the part number I was missing that same day, and they had the part to me within 72 hours after that.What more can you ask for from customer service?? at least give em a chance to solve the problem eh. Sending things back without at least trying to get the missing part, then bad reviewing a good product with good service, is just stupid in my book as such good service is rare, but this is what some are like I guess.Anyway, these are good fans, overpowered for the size, usually 16 inch fans = 40watt motors, these are 60 watt. V few are at this size so if you want a real strong breeze from a relatively small footprint simple to use fan, these would tick that box.Best wishes.and p.s. No, I do not work for duronics, nor do I have any family nor friends nor know anyone who does, don't even know where they are based, but good product and service is worth my time to commend.

Overall I’m very impressed with this, it looks good, works brilliantly and is very powerful and not all that noisy. As I said overall it’s great but there are a few little nagging bits. The first being the cable is rather short, I’d say it’s about a meter give or take? Not a huge issue but when you are putting it on a wall this does create a problem with positioning unless you want to run extensions all over the place. The second and final is that it comes in the box in bits, you have to put it together and there is absolutely no instructions at all. I kinda figured it out myself and by looking at the pics but it took longer than if I had a simply set of instructions. I had it assembled and on the wall in about an hour from receiving the parcel. Really good powerful fan, the remote works at an incredible distance and even pointing away from the fan (other models have disappointed me in the past with puddly remotes) quality is what you’d expect for the money. Would definitely buy this again.

Power fan, well-built. Not very noisy. Great airflow

Great fan... Spoiled by having no paper instructions / diagrams to help put the fan on the wall... Me n my children have dyslexia so rely on the instruction manual

I saw a lot of mixed reviews for this fan so I was skeptical. This is the most simple fan I’ve ever put together. As long as you screw everything nice and tight, it won’t wobble or move. Very sturdy, powerful and great price!The only downside for some people is that it’s not very quiet, but I prefer this as I use the fan noise to help me sleep!

I got this on a day where it was half price at £25 instead of £50. I am happy I did as I feel it is not worth any more than what I paid for it.The three stars awarded represents it as a whole. For power as a fan it is five star. But for build quality it scores a lowly two star in my opinion.The materials used to produce this are cheap, fragile and flimsy. The instructions were awful. I found them difficult to decipher and apply. The telescopic part of the fan was stuck inside and took a lot of patience and effort to remove it.I eventually built it and got to the point where I was fitting the front protective grill using the plastic ring. The ring covers both lips on the front and back grill and you are required to screw the bolt to secure it in place. The bolt sits in two parts in enclosed housing. This housing is glued on and one fell off upon tightening. Previous fans I possess have these parts that either slide on and off or are plastic welded to the part. But tightening a bolt which is housed in glued on plastic makes it weak.I obviously was annoyed as I had ordered this in the middle of a heatwave. I improvised and used cable ties to secure the front protective grill and contacted the seller the next day. They were brilliant and sent me out a replacement part under Special Delivery that day and it arrived the next. It is the same part so still has the same problem, except now I know it is so fragile I will treat it accordingly.Now, for the good part. This fan is very powerful. It moves air very well. Ideal for a heatwave. Way more powerful than any fan I have owned. Its noise to power ratio is also impressive. It isn't quiet but it is a lot more quiet than it should be given its power. It is still quiet enough to sleep with it on full power.I haven't used the timer function so I cannot comment on how well that works. Apart from the fact it is a mechanical timer that ticks quietly.On full power it wobbles ever so slightly which is only noticeable on hard flooring. To reduce this make sure the blades are secured as tightly as they can be. Carpet will absorb the vibration more and it will be unnoticeable.Lastly, one of the blades of the fan had a safety advice sticker on which I tried to remove. It left very difficult to remove adhesive paste on the blade that would have soon been covered with dust and grime. This kind of adhesive residue can be cleaned off using olive / vegetable oil and a cloth.Thank you for reading my opinions and information contained in this review.
