Review on Floor fan Electrolux EFF-1004i, black by Micha Dbrowski ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The quality does not meet expectations, I will not buy any more.

At first I wanted to take another fan from Electrolux, which seems to have a full-fledged rotary gear knob, but it is only in one store and that one is little known. I also considered a completely different model from another company, which has speed control in two directions (more and less) and (if I don’t confuse) the indicators could also be turned off there. But this is Electolu-u-u-x and it is expensive-oh-oh-oh. Alas. I don’t know about that fan, but this one remotely looks like similar fans (also with transparent blades) that another “expensive” Bork brand sold a couple of years ago. And there it was a typical trick of an expensive brand - to make not the most expensive model (but also very expensive) and make it nasty, not corresponding to the price. Electrolux is a couple of times cheaper. But in any case, all fans with transparent blades are, apparently. the same Chinese factory. Both there and there the blades are hard, not soft, like cheap ones, as well as a huge imbalance (blades, clamping nut, engine shaft - each part has its own center, everything "walks" relative to everything), the engine itself is also noisy, and that's all it makes noise like an airplane. All the other disadvantages listed above are also here, and in Bork. Moral: don't be fooled by the popularity of the brand. Avoid with transparent blades. Do not pay attention to the store - it is better to get confused and buy a rare, but better one. Do not be especially afraid of fakes - the original and the fake itself are a quality thing. And the best thing, probably, is to buy an air conditioner - there are at least more different factories, and fundamentally different models too)

Pros
  • Relatively many speeds, incl. very weak. Stand stability. Design.
Cons
  • Very noisy. Switching speeds in one direction only (from lower to higher and after higher minimum). Too high - if you lie on the couch, it will not cool normally. Bright indicators are distracting, you can't turn them off even in SLEEP mode. Rotation of the head is not necessary, because if it suits me that the fan periodically turns away from me, then I am not particularly hot. This is not an air conditioner, it does not "fill your room with freshness", it only speeds up the cooling of your body when it blows on it.
