Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Is this fan noisy? Because it uses metal blades and a metal housing, it produces a solid, rhythmic "white noise" hum. While it is louder than a small plastic desk fan, many users find the sound helpful for sleeping or focusing.

2. How do I maintain the silver finish? To keep the fan looking brand new, simply wipe it down with a dry microfiber cloth once a week. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals which may tarnish the metal over time.

3. Is the height easy to adjust? Yes. It features a simple screw-lock mechanism on the pedestal pole that allows you to change the height in seconds without needing any tools.
