This fan is compact, quiet, inexpensive and, in my opinion, delivers a more than satisfactory volume of air. I used it for the first time this morning to cool me during my workout, and I am completely satisfied. Highly recommended.Customer Review: GOOD

Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this fan to place behind my receiver to keep the air circulating; to keep the unit cool. I replaced a Vornado Zippi Desk Fan Vornado FA1-0007-06 Zippi Desk Fan, Black, hoping that this fan might even be quieter than the Vornado, after reading its reviews. Well, it's not. It makes as much noise, and maybe even a little more. It is also larger than I thought it would be, but that's no big deal...the size still works fine for what I wanted it for. I wanted something dark (the Vornado is black) so it wouldn't be too obvious sitting in the cabinet behind my receiver. The shiny front plate doesn't really allow that, but it is still not as obvious as, say, a white fan would be.
Although it is a little pricier, I think something like the Air King 6-inch fan Air King 6-Inch 2-Speed Circulating Fan #9146 would work better for my purpose, if it only came in black.
I do like the on-off-fan speed knob on the front instead of behind on the Duracraft; it makes it very easy for me to access with it sitting behind my receiver. I have not really been bothered about the knob being "slippery" or difficult to turn as other have mentioned. However, I do have it plugged into a switched outlet on my receiver, allowing the fan to come on automatically when the receiver comes on, so I don't really use the control very often.
Anyway, this is a good, basic fan. It is not noisy, but it is also not what I would call whisper quiet. I'm sure most buyers will be happy with their purchase. It puts out a good air flow, but be aware, as stated in other reviews, it does not tilt. I am not disappointed in it, but it is not quite what I thought it would be on the quiet scale.
Customer Review: Got some good power
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this fan for my desk at work and I was surprised at the blowing power. This is the first fan I've ever owned that I keep on LOW instead of HIGH. Works great and keeps me cool on days where my work decides its best to save money by turning off the air conditioning. The fascists.Customer Review: Great Little Fan
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this fan back in 1996, my first year in college. I needed something inexpensive to move air because I slept on the top bunk in my dorm room and the heat just stagnated up there. I actually suspended it from some pipes that went overhead through the room and it blew from my head toward my feet. I still have this fan and it's still quiet and works excellent. I'm surprised they still make the exact same fan. Now that I know, I'm thinking about buying several more.
