MY FATHER BOUGHT ME ONE OF THESE FANS AND IT IS BY FAR THE BEST FAN. I NORMNALLY JUWT GET THE REGULAR BOX FAN, BUT THIS ONE BLEW THAT ONE AWAY. LITERALLY!  GREAT FAN. WOUOLD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WANTING A DURABLE PRODUCTIVE FAN. I USED THIS FAN FIRST IN MY KITCHEN WHERE THERE ISN'T HARDLY ANY AIR THAT CIRCULATES, AND IT GETS RATHER HOT, SO I NEEDED A GOOD BLOWER. THE STRENGTH OF THE AIR REALLY CAME DIRECTLY THROUGH. I ALSO LIKED HOW IT WAS MORE STABLE ON THE FLOOR THAN OTHERS AND HOW EASY IT WAS TO TILT. THE OTHER BOX FAN JUST SAT FLAT AND THAT WAS IT. MY FATHER SAID IT WAS A LITTLE MORE PRICEY...
