The Lasko High Velocity Floor Fan Range

by lobobrandon

Lasko High Velocity Floor Fan's include plenty of the finest floor fans available these days. However, if you're looking for one of them, you should know which to pick.

Well, we all know that Lasko High Velocity fans come in various configurations right from the oscillating to non-oscillating; floor fans to table fans as
well as pedestal fans and also wall mounted fans. Before you go ahead and buy any particular fan, make sure you know what you're going to be using it for.

Office fans and fans for your home are not at all the same, unless you've got a cubicle that's as big as your room at home! Therefore, you need to choose wisely keeping in mind the reason you're planning on buying a fan.

Here are some general factors that you need to consider before you buy any kind of fan irrespective of the use and brand:

Factors to keep in mind before buying a Lasko High Velocity Floor Fan

Size
One of the most important factors that you need to consider when it comes to fans is their size - some are small whereas others are quite large. Would
you have enough space to place it on your table? in your cubicle? or maybe attach it to your wall? That's what you need to determine before you buy one.

Noise
Who doesn't hate noise? Especially, a noisy fan sitting on our desk while we try to concentrate on our work. Most fans do make noise and the level of
sound can never be 0dB. In some cases a bit of oiling on the rotating parts fixes the problem; but, what if that doesn't work? Can you live with it? I
surely can't.

Airflow
Do you need the fan to be directed at you all the time or are you looking for all round cooling? Depending on your needs you would have to choose a
rotating or fixed fan.

Some of the Lasko High Velocity Floor Fans also fall in the category of Wall mount fans and oscillating fans - I've separated them into different categories even though they are all floor fans

Lasko High Velocity Floor Fans With handles

These Fans have handles and can only be placed on the floor - Easy to move around as they're also light

Be it our homes or office cubicles, we're never stationary at one place and therefore our fans would need to move along with us. Well, there are plenty of options available - one of them being the Lasko High Velocity Floor fans that come along with a handle. They're made with strong yet light weight materials and therefore are very easy to carry around wherever we go.

Let's take a look at the benefits as well as drawbacks of some of the Lasko Floor Fans with handles:

Lasko 4924 High Velocity Floor Fan With Handle

This fan is surprisingly a perfect choice for both homes as well as offices, because it's sleek and oscillates to ensure the full room get's breeze. In addition to these benefits, the fan is capable of running at three different speeds, so you don't need to be at the mercy of your fan anymore. 

It's worthy of being in your office cubicle as it doesn't need much space - thanks to its sleek design. Also, it's really light! You can move it from one part of the desk to another as your work needs. Or maybe from one room to another when you're using it at home. 

There are some disadvantages that this fan possesses such as: 

Bad Range - Even though it's capable of running at 3 speeds, the fan needs to be close to you, else you won't enjoy the cool breeze that you wish for. Noise - we all hate it! But, there have been several cases wherein this very model became noisy after a few months of use.

Lasko 2264QM 20-Inch Max Performance High Velocity Floor/Wall mount Fan

Lasko is well known for their innovative technologies, this fan is just one of them. It uses their patented fused 3 prong safety plug and this is what gives it a slight upper hand when compared to similar models of other brands. 

This fan needs to be assembled before use, but this isn't an issue that you need to consider - because, it's really easy and the manual explains it all very well. 

The controls are well placed to enhance the looks of this fan, and at the same time make it easier for us to control the fan. In addition to the great controls, this fan obviously got a handle (That's the reason its placed in this category); but, the handle is sleek and hence looks good too. It's really strong and the fan can easily be carried from one place to another. 

This fan operates silently at lower speeds, but as you increase the speed it tends to be a bit noisy. Great for kids bedrooms if you don't want them to be disturbed by outside disturbances. So, if you intend to use the fan only at slower speeds or if a bit of noise is fine, then this fan would be the perfect choice. 

Lasko High Velocity Wall Mountable Fans

Lasko High Velocity Fans are a great way to get your room cooled. If you find it hard to find place on your table or floor or maybe you're just not getting enough breeze when you place it on the floor, then you could always opt for one of their wall mountable fans.

Also, if you have kids running around the house, I suggest choosing a wall mountable fan, because kids are inquisitive by nature and they may even try to touch the moving blades - No one would want this to happen.

Lasko 3300 Wall Mount Fan

This Lasko High Velocity Floor Fan truly lives up to its name and brand. It's really strong and reliable. Operating at 3 different speeds, it's ideal for home use.

The head of this fan is pivoted and therefore, it's really easy to change the direction of the head, hence altering the direction of airflow.

There weren't any problems that could be detected, just that it wouldn't be the best choice for an office - unless you've got good paper weights! Also, the motor would have to be oiled after a few years to retain the smooth and quiet functioning of this fan. 

Lasko 20" High Velocity Floor Fan with Quick Mount

This is one of the best wall mount fans available as it's really easy to mount as well as take off the wall and carry it to another room - thanks to the sleek handle it possesses. Moreover, the fan is highly durable and rust proof as it's got a strong steel body. 

It's not just a wall mount fan, this fan can be readily used as a table fan as well. So, it's an ideal choice both for homes and offices, where needs may vary from time to time. You don't need to worry about the fan damaging furniture neither sharp corners hurting you or your kids; because, the entire surface of this model is encased by rubber pads.

When the fan is mounted on the wall, it may be hard to direct the fan breeze towards you, especially if you're far away from the fan.

I used to have one of these, and they do put out the air. Thanks for the article.

The summer here isn't that hot, but the worst is yet to arrive. Hope it's not as bad as last year!

This fan is just in time for another heat wave. I went outside for my morning coffee and its already hot. The weather man says the heat index is on the rise and we're looking at scorching temperatures. Floor fans are a must to keep the air moving through homes. We should all think about the elder people in our communities, check on them, make sure they have safe running fans set up and working. IF not buy them a fan and set it up safely for them. This heat is dangerous.
