MaxxAir Made in USA
Great fan looks to be built very well also Made in USA it moves alot of air its not for small rooms. Would of given it a 5 Star rating but the fans Low Setting is not very Low and could use little longer power cord. The Low and Medium setting are almost no difference. This fan is realy for a warehouse or a large room its kinda loud also but if your looking for a fan that will almost blow the paint off the walls look no further.... Have a Nice Day

I was looking for a different kind without a rattle, whine or shutter. and thought maybe a floor fan would work. I tried the "Workforce" model of floor fan in the store (no comparable model from Amazon) and it rattled badly. The only other thing I found was a display mode of the Maxx Air and it sounded great. No rattle, nice and consistent - rather like an airplane propeller. Later that day, I gave it a try to sleep with.
After about 20 minutes on high, it made a peculiar grinding noise several times, like something got into the motor, then settled down and ran solidly for several more hours and I actually slept pretty well for the first time in two weeks. But when I shut it off, instead of spinning down slowly, the blades came to a rather abrupt halt and it wouldn't start again without a push. The motor was extremely hot to...
