Of course I have not used the fan yet since it is still winter. I did try it out to be sure it was okay. I do like the air flow and it is quiet. In fact it is quieter than one other Vornado fan I have. The only thing that is of concern is the way to remove the grill for cleaning. I do believe a grill fastened with small screws would be better. I have a small Massey fan that has just four screws for the grill. But that is small concern until I try to remove it for cleaning to see for myself how easy, or not easy it is. Thank you.
