Tower design directs airflow in a slim 27.5-in tall fan that fits easily into corners or next to furniture to help cool the room. The dense netted air outlet covers the front opening to help protect fingers from contact with internal parts. A sturdy round base supports the 5.5-lb housing for stable floor placement during operation. Simple controls let you choose low, middle, or high speed, and the oscillation function sweeps air across a wider area for more even cooling in home or workplace settings.
