I don't know about anyone else but I've had bad experiences with fans. You can't feel any air if you hold your hand up in front of them, even on high. Swivelling fans that start swivelling if you even look at them wrong when you just want the stupid things to push air where you want. I bought the next larger version of this fan for my bedroom and love love loved it. So I got this one for a smaller version and it's a beautiful fan as well. The air goes where you want it to and it's a such a sturdy little thing (and no stupid swivel).
Attaching the base is surprisingly tricky. You MUST insert the base between the small metal washer and the large rubber one or it will start to slowly, sadly tilt down (something that drove me crazy with the larger version until I, duh, read the instructions). That metal washer is TINY and I thought the instructions were maybe for the wrong version cause I couldn't even see it. But it's there and I had to unscrew the knobs all the way and use a dental pick to coax the two washers apart.
Of course I've read the one star reviews (who doesn't read those first?) and all I can say is it's not my experience. On the lowest setting it's whisper quiet and I can feel air several feet away. On the highest setting, yeah it's kinda loud - I mean it's not a MAGICAL fan - but the sound is all air, no motor noise or anything like that. Show me a fan that blows that much wind and is quiet at the same time. Doesn't exist. And when I need a fan to be on high just give me that sweet wind and I'll take some blowing noise.
This was a great pick for a second fan, but honestly for a first room fan I'd go with the next size up. Maybe buy this one if you need it on your desk or you live in a shoe. It's not that this one isn't good, just that I've not found the larger size inconvenient at all in my bedroom. And you get more wind at about the same noise level.
I can't comment on durability since I just got it but I've had the larger fan for nearly a year of almost constant use with no problems.

Super Fan of a Super Fan!
This fan is perfect! It's small but mighty. It has the perfect sound and three speeds for all your cooling needs. It even has metal components, not all plastic. It's sits on a table or on the floor and has tilting options.It's a little pricey, but I think it will last. I'm thinking I need one for my living room.I'm a certified fan addict since childhood, so I know fans!
