This is a beautiful fan inspired by 1930's design. It has three speeds with the lever controlling speeds conveniently located on the side (rather than the back) of the motor housing. On low speed the the noise from the fan is little more than a whisper but still puts out a decent stream of air. It gets a bit noisier on medium and high but the noise is simply the air being moved and not mechanical noise from the motor. It has large chromed metal blades which when spinning only add to the appearance of the fan. Set on high and about 3 feet from the unit, I clocked the air speed at 10mph. Since I've never done this before I'm clueless as to how it stacks up, but for my money it's more than enough.Finally, with such an attractive machine it would be a shame to see it all covered in dust and gunk. If you look at the red ring that encircles the fan's head, you'll notice a little red bump on the bottom. That's a tab with a single screw holding the red ring in place. Take the screw out and you can remove the red ring which allows you to remove the front grill of the fan in order to clean it. You can clean the fan with just the front grill off or it appears there are other screws that will dismantle the back grill and the blades for more thorough cleaning.
The fan oscillates but tilts neither up nor down. For me this is not a problem as the farther away you are from the fan, the more dispersed the air is. I sleep about three feet below the level of the fan and ten feet away and it's plenty windy for me.
