It's no longer moving 8000 cfm, it's moving 9000! It's the new and improved Lasko 3733. It's so effective it only needs one blade! I'm guessing this blade was defective as well. Those white blades don't break too often.
Thanks for posting & sharing! I have this fan for over 15 years yet didn't use it much until these last 3 years. It just stopped working and I'm online searching for another. Looking thus far....ALL I see is expensive garbage with the plastic grills. Hardle always felt safe to me. Very quiet fan. I certainly got my money's worth. I'm going to have to try to use the old base and as many parts as possible on to the new replacement model that looks like junk. I think the newer LASKO are now many awful. I've had a lot of the box fans too yet over a decade they used to last for a long time. I can't fall asleep without the fan noise since my college days. It drowns out most noise being I'm an extremely light sleeper. Again, that's for your videos. Interesting. I assume you like to work on toasters too. Lol 😂😂....😉
@@JordanU My experience with these is when they fall over the cheap thin bendy blade tips flex. When it falls forward the trailing edges briefly rub the front plastic grill and things are usually gonna be fine. But when they fall over backwards, esp when on high and onto hard floor, the leading edges of the blade catch hard on the stamped metal frame U-channel uprights that support the motor. These twist each blade and shear all or most of them right off, usually quite explosively. This has happened to me on units just a week out of the box new. All of those instances I didn't have the feet installed because they failed to throw them into the box at the factory. The takeaway for new users is that anyone who buys one and finds no feet , return to store immediately. And if you loose the plastic feet, make some DIY feet out of wood etc. Never use without feet, and be aware that the feet are still not a guarantee against falling over backwards, but they help a lot.
@@RXSVN_2 Well, I guess it's a design that costs $17.99 at HomeDepot. It'd be a great design if spare blades were available for $4.99, but alas, i've never found a replacement blade costing less than a whole new fan..
I used to have a lasko cool colers box fan in blue it moved air but one day the plug blade bent and when i fixed it half of the plug blade came off and one day it dissapeard
What's common sense is that you have 0 capacity to handle any type of humor and get all bent out of shape over the title of a free video on the Internet.
