Review of Lasko 42" Oscillating Tower Fan (2554C) - Skip it.
The fan has decent build quality, and is not bad looking, but it's actually quite large (where am I going to put this thing in the winter now!?). It has a nice array of settings, but they are deeply marred by the confirmation sound every time a key is depressed (a screeching buzz); this is especially problematic with the "sleep" function. The fan offers you the option of 30 minutes to 6 hours of sleep timing, but at the end of the timer it emits the loud confirmation sound---easily loud enough to wake you from your sleep if you have the fan in your bedroom. Also, for such a large fan it really doesn't move all that much air--small blower fans move much more (and it isn't any quieter than those). So, skip this one.
