That's what a fan should do, keep working. I have it on my desk at work running 24/7 for about a year now. Lasko fans are also quieter than many others, it does not disturb conversations, in fact I usually forget it is running.

Great little fan that is small enough for a bedside but powerful enough that you'll want to turn it down to low most of the time. This little guy pushes around a surprising amount of air -- easily besting Duracraft and Honeywell models that are larger. Nice little touch is the small cup area on the base -- perfect for little things in the cubical world (paper clips, etc) or bedside (ear plugs, nail clippers, etc).

Very quiet, little or no air whoosh but the motor does make a somewhat higher-pitched low noise on either speed.

I bought this fan for a month now. This fan works really well to cool down my notebook computer and external hard drive (I use speed 1, never use speed 2). About the noise, I put it right next to my laptop, so I know it is running but it does not bother me at ALL. I also like the design of the fan. The motor is cover with smooth hard pastic unlike those cheap pastic. Overall, I really recommend this fan to everyone.

Rating:
Noise- 1 out of 10 (low noise)
Design- 9 out of 10 (excellent design, not the best)
Cooling- 8 of 10 (cool enough on speed 1)

I bought this for a friend who is going through "the change"! She has it on her desk at work and is very pleased with it.

This is a small plastic fan. It's not sturdy, and in fact the first one I received was broken in shipping. Amazon promptly replaced it and the second one arrived intact. A fall off a table popped the front off, but didn't break it so I was able to snap it back on. It's not the most attractive fan either. But it's pretty quite, and nice and small, so you can put it most anywhere. All in all, it's pretty good, and what I needed. It does not oscillate, which is fine with me.

Don't look for this fan to have any effect on a large room, however, for those small rooms with limited space, this little fan is pretty good. I live in a CHU in Baghdad, which is a little smaller than a college dorm, so considering the limited space, this fan is perfect AND quite. It's perfect for small spaces and if you don't want to disturb those around you! Much smaller than I expected!

Wow...all the small portable fans I had in my office...this is the BEST! It is very very quiet. My fan is about 7 feet away from my desk and I can hardly hear fan turning. My office is very quiet. My office provided me Honeywell portable fan, but it is EXTRA noisy...I mean VERY VERY noisy! I get complaints from my coworkers....but then I did not buy this Honeywell! Honeywell is collecting dusts under my desk.

Our boys wanted a fan for their room so we looked at several fans and decided to buy the supposedly "quiet" Vornado. Big mistake! We wanted a quiet fan for them but ended up deciding we also wanted a quiet fan for us as well. The Vornado made it self known all the way down the hall in our bedroom, even on its lowest setting. This time we were a bit more careful and finally decided on the Lasko 6" Personal Fan. Big success! It has two levels and is quiet on both. Turns out the air coming from our registers when the air conditioner is on is louder than this fan. The design is not cheap either. The knob on the back that switches between OFF and levels 1 and 2 has a nice design.

Rating:
Noise: 10 out of 10 (whisper quiet - can't tell its on when down the hall or other side of their room)
Price: 10 out of 10 (there may be a fan just as good in design/low-noise, but not for the price - closest competitor was $10 more)
Design: 8 out of 10 (it is sturdy and doesn't have one of those cheapo knobs - of course it's cheap, but they made it very well for the price)
Cooling: 8 of 10 (again, this isn't a Vornado - I just wanted decent air movement within a decent decibel range at a decent price - this has got all three)

I've had two of these for a dozen years and they are still running well, but thought I should get a couple more just in case. these are marvelous little fans.

I like this fan for my desk at work. It can get stuffy or too warm sometimes so it's great at keeping me cool. Also, it is pretty quiet. The only thing that I didn't care for was that it seemed I got one that was returned because of the way it was packaged. It's working fine so guess that's what matters.
