This is an excellent, well-built, high-quality fan from a Dutch company. It has a DC motor, which means it's incredibly energy efficient, the motor is long-lasting, and it's still powerful. The best part is that the fan is completely modular, so if you ever need to replace a part, it is extremely easy to do so via the company's website.
Pros:
- The remote control is well-made and magnetically attaches to the back of the fan
- It's quiet, even on the highest setting of 26!
- It has automatic horizontal AND vertical oscillation
- It's lightweight with a well thought-out handle that allows you to carry it even while it's powered on and oscillating.
- It can transform from a tabletop fan (only slightly taller than normal tabletop fans) or a floor fan (note: the height is around 100 cm)
- It pushes a lot of air! 1750 m³ per hour
Cons:
- Not really a con, but it is slightly shorter than the average 140cm fans

Yes, it costs more than a cheap AC motor fan, but the pros make it more than worth it. This is a fan that will last you 10+ years. The fact that it's modular and easy to fix also aligns with the Circular Economy model, meaning it is more eco-friendly and you will contribute less to e-waste in the next decade. I bought mine on sale for 100 Euros and I consider it well-worth the price.
