After receiving in the mail, I opened the box and was pretty surprised. I assumed based on the weight that it would not be very stable but to my surprise, it stands with ease on all my floors. Assembly was super easy and honestly requires no instructions. In the past I have use regular fans and they can be a little loud so I was expecting this on to be super quite, not exactly the case; while its not overly loud, it does put out a pretty significant amount of sound. Now for its power, it works wonderfully, I was able to turn off all the air upstairs and turn on the fan and it kept the air circulating so it didn't get super hot like normal without running the AC. All in all absolutely I would recommend this fan to anyone and I would hands down purchase this one again. I did obtain this fan for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
