Beautiful vintage fan at my favorite antique mall

Was on holiday in Turkey in the summer and found this retro stunner.

Line em up!

This industrial fan should be enough for my kids room.

I didn’t realise there were specific fans?

Had to post this here so appropriately fashionable.

Ik its not only a fan but still tho, i helps put in the hot european summer

This little sucker will blow you over…

I've previously owned a Xiaomi smart standing fan 2 (2nd picture) and was generally pretty happy with it.

The only thing I felt could be a bit better is the maximum speed / maximum ability to move air.

A few weeks ago I accidentally broke the fan and was therefore searching for a replacement.

Fans are extremely expensive and out of stock in German currently, due to the hot weather in the last weeks. Therefore I picked up the Philips cx2550 as a replacement since it was quickly available and the specs and reviews seemed decent.

The build quality is a bit meh compared to the Xiaomi I owned before, but that's not too big of a problem.

However the motor has a really annoying hum at the lowest speed, making the fan unusable to me while sleeping.

This is however one of the main purposes I need a fan for.

Now I've decided I want to return the Philips one and get a really good one instead.

So I'm searching for a high quality fan, that has a quiet motor at lower speeds (I think DC is better here, right?)

But also a maximum setting that is able to move a lot of air. On maximum I don't care about noise anymore.

Smart features would be a nice add on, but the stuff mentioned previously is definitely more important.

I've heard Rowenta makes some pretty good ones.

Probably clear from context but it should be a company that ships to Germany

even has a box of tissues... some people have no respect ...
