You don't have to kill for one. I've had a Lasko tower fan for about three years now. It's almost entirely silent, moves a lot of air, and comes with a remote. I did have to take it apart to regrease the bearings once, but other than that, it's been a great fan. Also comes with a remote.

- malexw 13y agoDo you have any advice on regreasing the bearings? I've got one of those fans but it's starting to cease up on me.
- notdrunkatall 13y agoYeah, it's a fairly straightforward process. The top bearing isn't actually a bearing at all, but a simple piece of flat steel that basically just holds the top spindle of the blower in place. When you take the fan apart, you'll see what I mean. It's lubricated by some cotton infused with some pretty thin lubricant, and over time, that lubricant/cotton combo loses its lubricity. Mine was starting to make noise, so I took it apart and slathered wheel bearing grease on that contact point, and it's been going for six months now with no problems.
