If we put this in a dorm on top of a wardrobe cabinet, does it angle downward enough to blow on the bed next to the wardrobe ?

Probably not. It only goes straight out well. there is about 1* of angle to point down, but I don't think that would help much.

I don't believe the fan angles downward. There are 3 speeds, and it does cool the space down quite a bit, the fan also oscillates or can be stationary, but I don't think it will quite work as you are hoping.

It blows over rather easily. You'd have to weight down the bottom shelf, but keep in mind there's a definite limit to how much weight the shelves can hold. I have it protected on two sides by walls and when filled, I don't have an issue with winds.

I would think not because it has to hang straight down; not from an angle. We ended up returning the fan because the light casts dots on the surrounding walls. Really tacky. We called the parent company Ellington for design recommendations. They were very helpful. www.ellingtonfans.com

no - probably need a larger fan. We chose this model for 2 bedrooms and it works fine for them.

The fan can be adjusted to fold backwards, so if you put it on the floor it would then be aiming upwards. It does not go more forward than 90 degrees so unless you prop it up from behind on something it will not direct air downwards.

I would use it pointing up to the ceiling, and it would circulate the air really well. If you were to point directly at the desk...then, I am guessing the papers would blow around. It's a great fan and does move the air well.

Yes, we do that at our house, but it will blow over in moderately high winds depending on the load. High surface area laundry (e.g. sheets) will tip it more easily.

I have put mine upright in the closet, but I had to do so with a little lean to it. I eventually put it under my bed.

Yes, the fan position can be adjusted up & down. I have it located above me on top of a filing cabinet and I"ve chosen to point it upwards so that it pushes the air in room down and produces comfortable air flow without directly blowing on me.

It should be plenty long enough, my main concern is if you are intending to use it in a dorm - check the clearance - a lot of dorm rooms have low ceilings and also regulations on how far away from the ceiling a loft has to be.

It blows pretty hard but I have mine pretty close to me. It's not industrial strength but it's good for exercise room or a small living room

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.

No. However, the exhaust fan located on the rear of the unit blows up and forward. You would need to confine taller objects to the side opposite the fan.

It works far better blowing the hot air out of the cabinet. Unless you can tie it directly to an AC vent, blowing air in simply won't be cold enough to make a meaningful difference.

Yes it blows straight as it rotates and you can have different settings so it doesn't blow on you all the time only as it rotates. We like this fan as does our son at his home. You would need to place it on a table or stool. We have ours on a square stool with gripper material and it s fine. Hope this helps.

Yes it is stable enough to use to study in bed when sitting up... when the legs are extended all the way out to the sides. However if you find that the height is too low once doing this ... my experience is that the legs do not adjust to any other angles without being wobbly.

yes, just let it air out before putting it on your bed. It doesn't last long
