Does it move air? Yes, and lots of it. Is it fairly loud? Also yes, but it’s an industrial floor fan, let’s not act surprised. It reminds me of the drone of propeller aircraft, so it’s not the most unpleasant sound in the world. On the whole this fan does the job without question. The lead is a little short for my liking but that’s easily sorted with an extension cable.
Ideal floor fan … with all the fans being sold out everywhere due to the hot and muggy weather toolstation still had this floor fan available… excellent fan as it kept the whole downstairs at a very comfortable temperature…brilliant buy and would recommend anyone who needs cooling down to get one
