It is a great fan, Very powerful, I am the type of person who needs a fan to sleep and this one works great. It never once vibrated for me however I only got about a year and a half out of it but it worked great until it randomly got a short in it.

I bought mine the end of May 2014 and now it's dead. Out of the box it vibrated so bad that you could see the whole unit pulsate and it did walk across the floor. All this vibrating and pulsating has broken the welds holding the motor housing to the grill and therefore, caused it to come unhinged and burn up the motor. Buyer beware!

I just have (1) and it does vibrate a little. I suspect all the 9220-20 fans will vibrate a little I almost returned mine but it does move air well. It seems the frame support is a little light for motor size!!

My fan works perfect for almost a year and a half in a Florida garage. Hot as blazes and on low speed. High speed would suck the doors in. No sign of rust either.

It is very well built. But be aware, this thing moves a ton of air and is not quiet. Great for more industrial settings or a garage/workshop, but probably a bit noisy for normal residential use. That said it is a great fan.

Mine always worked fine.Shame that we can'e buy US made which is what we wanted in the first place.

I also tried two of these. Both were noisy, but they also vibrated horribly and we're out of balance. performance in that regard was totally unacceptable. I did not order third one and have simply given up. Amazons return/exchange program works magnificently, but this product was a disappointment.

I've had it for over a year and have not had any vibrating. I'm pleased with it.

No, I don't have that problem. I never noticed a fan running until I read this email. Now, I can hear a slight hum occasionally. But nothing you should ever notice. Yours is not right.

Mine just started buzzing. I have cfl's in my ceiling fan. I turn them off and the buzzing stopped. I just don't know why it just started to do this at this time because I've had this setup for almost a year now. Oh well, thanks to everyone who contributed.

I run it on f2 and it is not any louder than a normal fan. F3 is a little louder but no need to run it on f3. I forget it is even running.

I have 2 of these fans. I tested both on lawn chairs in full sun to see what kind of vibrations they would have. The bigger 30 watt ran the same motor faster but both had very little vibration. I don't hear them in my house.

The internal fan is broken, same with mine. Opened it up and its a cheap computer fan. I replaced it for 4 dollars at a computer store and it works. If you're under warranty, send it back or take the risk and replace the fan.Good luck

Well, I've heard that the number of fans that spin depends on the temperature of graphic card. If the temperature is not so high then only one fan spins, while for high temperature all of the three fans will spin. I've read about it multiple times and think you should check the number of spinning fans under different loads. This graphic card is really something that satisfied me..!!

Sometimes this problem can be fixed by switching two blades opposite each other. My fan only makes a slight humming sound on low speed which is normal and does not wobble. The only other suggestion I have for you is to make sure all the screws are tight. If they are not, this could be the solution to your problem.Hope this helps!

I have only had the unit one night, but the fan noise does seem a little loud. Which is unfortunate because I kept reading how quiet it is and that is one of the main reasons I bought one. Not sure if it is just my unit, or if this is just how normally loud it is for others? Also, my fan ALWAYS seems to be running, even if I am not pushing it hard at all.

I tried to get one and could not find where I could get one. If you find one let me know. These fans are worthless. I bought two and they both broke. Amazon would not replace them.

Cody.. Which fan did you end up purchasing. Doing the same thing. Current fan I am using is not powerful enough.

No, I am sorry I do not. As I have had my fan for no more than 4-5 months, it is still functioning without issue. Best of luck to you!

We have THREE of these fans now and though I don't use the oscillator much, I haven't noticed any clicking. I just ran each fan on oscillate and cycled through each of the speeds. It sounded seamless. No clicking at all. For those who have clicking, I would make sure the base is snapped . together properly and that the fan is on a flat surface.

My fan was really loud at first. It has either gotten 'worn in' or I'm used to the sound. I don't even notice it anymore!

We have had no problems with our fan and so don't know how to answer this question. It is working beautifully and we enjoy it.
