Has anyone used both this and the Lasko 6" personal fan, and how do they compare? Speeds, power, how well it blows air/cools, etc., quality, and sound? Would appreciate it!

These Chillout fans are one of the only ones that continue to work well. They last and last. I have them in every room and they run 365/24/7. The other cheap metal imports usually get noisy and quit after a few months. If I had to say something bad about the chillout I would say that the control knob is hard to hold on to because of the tapered shape and I would like to see it in a 3 speed version.

I trust Lasko. This fan is at my wife's office so I don't have first hand feedback. I had a 42 inch Lasko before and it was a workhorse. Ion feature is good plus having a remote is convenient. Lasko means tower fan in some foreign language.

The fan is awesome for larger area, as the Deacon of my church this is why I purchased it and it has worked wonderfully and I was rather surprise that its not very loud at all and all three speed adjust very well according to the loudness which to me is very acceptable however I really don't know how it may sound in a close in area unless of course you have a rather large bedroom. I hope this will be of some help to you and Happy New Year and god luck.

The fan is actually pretty noisy. It looks cool, but for all the noise it makes, it just doesn't move the air enough. As for cleaning, the. Fan is in the base of the unit. I haven't tried to clean it yet. Don't want to disassemble it for fear of breaking it. Get a Lasko high power tower fan. It moves a big amount of air and is less then 1/2 the price.

Good fan. I've got it hooked up to a 4" exhaust tube. I think 5" will work as well, but not 6".

The noise from this fan is simply the sound of the air being blown, and it is louder than a cheaper/plastic fan because it is more powerful. This fan is not noisy in any other, annoying way - no rattling or clicking or other annoying noises I have experienced in the past with cheaper/plastic fans. This is just pure wind sound. Do be aware though, this is an industrial-strength fan so it is significantly more powerful -- and therefore the wind sound is louder -- than typical home fans. So it would not be ideal for a small space -- it is too powerful, will blow papers around, would be too loud if you're too close and trying to listen to something else. It's better suited for a larger space -- I needed it for a large space that is hard to cool in the summer, and it really makes a world of difference. It is exactly what I needed. So just keep in mind that this is a more powerful, industrial-strength fan and consider the space where you want to use it and whether you think it could help you or if you think it might be too much power for your needs. It is an excellent fan, and I am extremely pleased with it -- no complaints; it has rubber feet which helps keep it from moving around and which also helps protect your floor (if you have nice hardwood floors). I definitely recommend it if you are going to use it in a decent-size space.

I would highly recommend the tower fan fora small office. It moves allot of air very quietly and without taking up allot of space. I have two now for our apartment and they have made a world of difference with keeping the air flow moving!

Mystic-Buddha...This fan is whisper quiet and if it is noise you want, then get the portable double directional fans. One set of fan blades blows inward and the other blows outward they tend to be noisy.It's either that or turn the stereo/TV volume higher.The Lasko Oscillating fan is surprisingly quiet.Good Luck.

My last response was pertaining to a Honeywell TurboForce Fan, HT-900. And that has two prongs. I don't know about the Lasko. I assumed that it was the one I purchased. sorry for any confusion.

I used the fan for 2 years with the original nozzles. They give you 3 extra nozzles with the fan. You would have to call Lasko customer service to see if you can purchase the nozzles. For phone service call1-800-233-0268Representatives are available to assist you Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00 PM Eastern.

I have the dual fans (4000 cfm) ... using to cool a 355 SBC they are quality units, work fine, however, they draw a lot of juice and are noise. I had to go to a 140 amp. alternator to carry the load. I'm going to put seperate switches so I can run 1 fan on cool days and 2 only when needed to drop the load and noise. engine mounted in a '74 260Z roadster conversion with tight engine bay so cooling, even with an alum. rad. and ceramic coated headers a task. Fans did the trick.

It's not really that big. It's actually one of the smallest "house fans," I have owned. The only concern; the force from the air may distract the driver. It blows a lot of air, very fast. I use it to dust my PC parts :) Overall, if you have the right adapter, you should be able to use this fan and it's a much better choice than most. It even has the extra power ports, which provides access to a realm of future options. I hope this helps...

myself,I like it due to the small size,cost wasn't bad.I've used a fan in the past,but prefer this for myself.I imagine the iPod deal would work.This is more portable than a fam,as I travel a bit.'d still take this over others......

The Lasko 4930 is a High Velocity Blower fan with MUCH more air flow and HAS NOT been discontinued.http://www.laskoproducts.com/oscillating-high-velocity-fan-with-remote-controlmodel-4930/ kd

Hi Richard. It is such a coincedence that me and my dad took almost 1400 lbs of trash to the dump just yesterday and we had to seperate trash from metal from electronics and three of those fans were part of the load. I just went out to the garage because I still had the box for the HF-910 and I was suprised the diameter was not mentioned. I can assure you it is a 20" blade. I have seen enough fans including box style and the HF-910 is not small. Good luck with longevity should you buy this model. Here is the one I purchased at walmart and sold here for $60.00...10 dollars less then Walmart ( Lasko 2264QM 20-Inch Max Performance High Velocity Floor/Wall mount Fan) Take Care, Wayne Hi Richard.
