Bought this unit a month ago and was quite disappointed from the get go. Was tricky getting the fan shaft lined up to go into the very flimsy base. The turning of the shaft to control fan speed is also a pain. Live and learn.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fan enclosure could not be assembled as delivered due to some parts being the wrong ones. No big deal, since my purchase was just an experiment. I have an old Holmes fan that's exceptionally quiet (because it runs at a somewhat slower speed) and was hoping this similar size fan would be too. Fan itself worked fine, but was not nearly as quiet as the old one, so I would not have used it anyway. For most people, air flow is more important than noise, but it's the opposite for my particular application.

This fan is powerful yet quiet and moves the air quite a distance.
I would recommend this to a friend!
