Consumer Feedback: PROS and CONS
How does the Lasko #2554 fare among consumers? Here are the pros and cons.
- Easy to operate. With the remote control, all you need to do to make the unit run is to push the desired button.
- Minimal assembly. In fact, it comes almost fully assembled. It just requires that you attach the base.
- Very quiet. While it does make a sound, the sound it makes can be classified as "library quiet." For one consumer who has a Lasko box fan, she says this model is quieter than the box counterpart.
- Can be top-heavy. One consumer pointed out that the base is made from lightweight plastic, which makes the top heavy.
- Remote works only if it's close to the fan. Unlike a TV remote control, this does not work if you are far away.
- The "ion" light can be bright for you. This can be a problem if you're the type who doesn't like sleeping with the lights on. If you are this type, it's best to turn off the ionization feature.
- Large in size. Refer to the video above so you can have a clear idea of its size.
- Needs an electric blower to clean it up. As what the manual says, you shouldn't open it up. Instead, use a blower to take out the dust accumulated. Note though that your regular vacuum may not have enough power to clean it up.
