Schallen 16" Electric Oscillating Floor Standing Tall Pedestal Air Cooling Fan (Black)

well...I can't believe this item made it to me undamaged (see photos of usual courier handling..no respect, no care, and the driver conveyed that too.) Fan itself, dare I say it, was a breeze to assemble. Works very well, stable and worth my bucks, very quiet when running, seems to find the cooler air, well it certainly shifts it nicely...you do need a Philips screwdriver to adjust the angle of the head.

With this very hot weather in the UK at the moment, I wanted to buy a fan that was lightweight, easy to assemble, that ossilated and wasn't too noisy. This fan ticks all the boxes. My 14 year old son assembled this in no time for me. With other fans I have bought, we struggled to put the mesh on and the blades would become loose, but we haven't had this issue. I really like the grey colour and that it is not bulky. It is easy to move from downstairs to upstairs as it is lightweight. The lead isn't super long but that isn't a problem. Even on the highest setting, it isn't too noisy. It has really helped to cool down the rooms we have placed it in. The instructions were easy to follow and the box it came in wasn't massive. I would highly recommend this.

Nice fan, easy to assemble, reasonable quality. Only concern the lower stand 16 and it's screw fixing into the base connector 17 seems a little flimsy (under engineered) could fail if handled without care. Otherwise good

It was described as minimal assembly... it was not at all, I had to put the whole thing together, I would not have bought it if I had known, as I have arthritis in my hands and took me an hour to put it together, my hands were so painful afterwards it made me cry. Oh and the 2 screws I had to put in , I could not do it, my fingers could not grip the tiny screws. My advice to people do not buy. Its flimsy and will not last long. Definitely no good to people that have problems with their hands. This is the first time I had to put a fan together!! I normally buy and plug in and none of this hassle. Am so annoyed... can you tell !!!

This review is for my second purchase of fan of this type and manufacturer and purchased in May 26. The original purchase is still going strong and performing perfectly. No issues with it whatsoever. The only difference with my latest purchase is that the legs are now in moulded plastic which makes it look much more expensive and elegant. Other than that no other differences, and I must say that if you ever need a 16” pedestal fan then get your hands on one of these. I was late in getting it this time as Amazon were out of stock very quickly and now have stock. So impressed that I have another arriving tomorrow 19/6 as here we are in mid June 26 at 30 deg and it’s going to get hotter. Sitting in our conservatory on a very hot day this week with the temperature outside at 32, our fan finally failed. So looked on Amazon to see what we could get and quickly and reasonably priced. Found this one with reasonable reviews and a good price. It arrived ahead of time and was very well boxed up. Everything was in the box and it came with a good set of instructions, but as we have put many similar fans together over many years assembly was not an issue. All went together easily and whilst a few parts looked cheap such as the feet and base fixing cover they are more than good enough. Once assembled and installed switched it on and the first reaction was how quiet it was and’s on its lowest setting how much air was being pushed through by the blades with the top setting being incredibly and really not necessary to use to get the perfect flow of air. One observation is that the motor housing vibrates in use which is not an issue but it just does, and has no effect on the fan operation. It has been run now for 10 hours on each of the 3 speed settings in order to see if there are any out of box problems but all is still good and it’s running perfectly. As mentioned, very quiet and moves a lot of air through all the 3 settings, and this has not been our experience with other such fan purchases. All in all we are very happy with this purchase and only time will tell just how robust this fan really is.

Poor quality and lack of much power

Great fan. Very very quiet. Gentle speed to ‘hurricane’! Easy to order, quick delivery, competitive price & easy to assemble. Highly recommended.

Just what's needed in this heat. If super cool, very quiet even on the highest setting. Keeps the room lovely & cool, easy to put together too. Well worth the money

Dont waste your money they're awful

Didn’t know it was a US plug so I couldn’t use it
