Is it ok to put this in a corner or up against a wall, or does it have to be out in the open somewhat to allow air to flow in behind it?

I believe it sucks air from the front and sides and blows it out of the top so I don't think it would be a problem up against a wall. I've had mine against a wall for a few days now with no problems.

That is correct, allow for 5-7 inches of spaces for the intake and outlets vents.

The air flows in the front panel and out a vent on the top of the unit. You can definitely put the unit in a corner or up against a wall.

Yes, I stand it against a wall when not in use. It's mostly quarter inch or so angle.

If the shelf is enclosed,i.e. with a shelf above and sides, I think you need to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for enough room for ventilation. You again would need to check with the manufacturer about having it set on a solid piece of wood or shelf. Mine is on an open weave metal shelf so there is also ventilation below.

If it is a through the wall you need a sleeve. The sleeve allows the condensation to drain outside.

If u r going to install a thru the wall air conditioner, u definitely need a sleeve for the unit to be stable and secure. It is simply the proper way to do it. Hope this is helpful.

Placed in a window it should do the trick. We also use ours to blow ac air from one room to another. Vornado fans are very sturdy.

you should use the fan for intake. if there is enough space for air to enter

I have mine in a protected area from the wind. It is a corner of my 7' privacy fence. It is my opinion that this green house would not hold up in high winds in an open area.

Standard for oscillating fan, if you put it in a corner it will cover room. The problem is the lack of air velocity. This fan works in a small room.

Frankly if the cabinet is open, you do not really need the fan. Biut given the choices, I would pull air through the front and exhaust to the back.

This thing is a hoss, so you have a lot of lee-way. Hang near to where you generate the most dust, most often. Angle away from that area, and in such a way that the tool will blow around the room. Don't point it at a wall, or you interrupt the air flow. Ideally, the air should circulate in a circle around the room.

I think installing it in a wall should not be a problem if properly supported and angled to shed water away from the wall.Also steps to water proof the opening should be taken.

We are using it against a wall and not in a corner and it looks good. I am very happy with the unit. It was easy to assemble.

I have one that is actually under a slight overhang and when it starts to go up it goes back away from the overhang and clears so I think against a wall would be fine.

I use mine in a corner at a 45 degree angle to the wall just fine without it looking funny. The sides are curved but overall are more or less about 45 degrees from corner to corner so it works well in a corner

Mine is not under a counter or near anything else and it got too hot when I had it too close to the wall (about 1"). I pulled it out three inches and it works great. I'm remodeling my kitchen and plan to put it under a counter but not in a cabinet so there is airflow around the back and sides.

It won't blow straight out from the wall. You have to fold it open for it to draw air in from the back.
