Our house has no insulation, nor air-conditioning and it gets very hot and humid. This fan was purchased for the purpose of placing in my bedroom. Easy to assemble, tilt adjustable, although keep in mind, that this fan does not oscillate! I just assumed all fans oscillate. I was disappointed in that fact, as sometimes, when sleeping, you do not want constant direct air flow. If that point does not bother you, than this fan gives good air flow and you certainly feel the difference, in comparison to cheaper plastic 3 blade fans. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.
