Fan Reviews

I unpacked the mister-fan and upon assembly discovered that a critical mounting of the motor on the rotating fan assembly was broken and was un-repairable without replacement of the motor assembly mounting casting. A good deal of the original Styrofoam packing material was omitted or discarded from the prior owner contributing to the breakage in its latest shipment. (Or, it was never repaired, but just re-cycled into the sales stream.)

Don't think I'll be buying reconditioned equipment any more.

LOVE THE FAN/HATE THE MISSING PIECES!!! While I purchased this back in March, we just had a heat wave hit us and I ran to the storage to get the fan! Upon opening the box, I was surprised at the poor pack job, but figured it would be fine. There were no directions, and/or manual, but I can assemble anything, so I quickly put it together, that is until I got to the misting/fan face part. NO SCREWS ANYWHERE TO BE FOUND! I started looking it over and the fan face was cracked in one place and missing a good sized chunk at another. The plastic base and face are yellowed from age/sun damage? After rigging it with craft wire and plugging it in, I love how it works, but be forewarned that you are gambling with this purchase. It might just be worth it to purchase new from Frontgate and get everything as promised! After all, mailing this thing back is most likely going to cost me the difference!

This fan has performed just as advertised. I have set it up about 15 to 20 feet away from the shaded sitting area in my back yard, and with the misting feature on and the fan on low speed, the air temperature dropped very noticeably. Later when I found I was getting too warm again, I found that my water timer had shut off. When I turned the water on again, instant cooling returned.The fan seems to be of very good quality; all parts are smoothly finished and sturdy. The motor and fan are quiet. It came with four extra misting nozzles. This factory reconditioned model is avery low cost choice.
