This fan was super easy to assemble. It came with printed directions, but it also had instructions attached to the cord in case the printed instructions were damaged or missing (I assume).
There were lots of settings for fan speeds, and my favorite feature of all was that you can turn the lights off. I am really sensitive to lights, and I really hate having blue lights on appliances especially at night, they're so bright and distracting. The one issue I have is that the buttons aren't lighted, they just have a print on them so you can't see them well at night or in low light. I do really like that you can tuck the cord into the base so it's not all over the floor.
The fan itself is really powerful but also really quiet.
