Does this fan work as well as an oscillating fan?

Its different. It has the ability to, for sure, but instead of warm air distribution (warm air rises) this amazing fan circulates cooler air. Best part about it, I can leave my air conditioning set to 4 degrees higher than without it. No joke.

I've actually been underwhelmed by this fan, esp. for the size and expense of it. I also have a small (and less expensive) vornado oscillating fan that seems to be much more effective.

This is the best fan I've ever owned. It takes up less space and puts out more air than an oscillating fan.

I like oscillating fan better. Also this fan is very noisy at higher speed.

Better than one... as far as changing temperature in the room in all areas" Good product I have 2 of them :o)

I do not feel so. It is a good fan and makes a solid breeze but I don't think it is as good as an oscillating fan.

It doesn't oscillate in the normal manner in which the fan moves itself....what happens with this one is the front louvered panel rotates in a circle which causes the air to move in different directions. Sounds strange but it works great. I own 3 of these. And you control the movement at the touch of a button. It can blow straight or "oscillate" so to speak.

Hi - This fan does not oscillate from side-to-side, the pivot feature just allows you to direct the airflow up and down manually. Great fan - mine runs 24/7 in a garage and does a great job.

No.... the fan is stationary. The description of the fan would most likely have said if it oscillated.

No, it doesn't, which is a little annoying as it doesn't remember previous settings, and it's very quiet. It will always turn on as stationary (not oscillating), and always on the highest fan speed setting. I've also noticed that I have to use the remote control in front of it, otherwise it doesn't always turn on. So I always have to walk over and check to see if it turned on.

Yes it oscillates maybe around 90 degrees or slightly more. It does tilt up and down but not a lot maybe 50 degrees...I've never thought of how it operates in degrees. It is a good little fan...quiet and puts out a lot of air...I have purchased 4 for home and work I like them so much.

I don't remember, I think so- this fan stopped oscillating shortly after purchase. So beware

There is a fan and it is extremely quiet. The unit can be set to oscillate or operate in a stationary mode. It is quiet when operating either way. Please be aware that the size of your room to be heated is an important factor in determining your comfort.

Yes, the fan has 3 speeds, but it does not oscillate. I do like the fan though as it provides the perfect amount of white noise.

There is an off switch on the top with the heat and fan controls. Also a button to oscillate or not. Also very quiet..Hope this helps.

it goes back and forth (oscillate). it also can be adjusted up and down. now be aware my fans bearings wore out aftr 3 months

When you first turn on the fan, it will not oscillate at all; if you want it to rotate, you have to press a button to choose between 60, 90, 120, or 360 degrees. It's a good fan, I'm glad I purchased it.

Unfortunately, no. You can turn it on, adjust the speed and set the timer but the oscillation control is a button on the back of the fan. Hope that helps!

yes this fan has oscillation. we bought it for our travel trailer and love it

It does have a button on the fan casing so that you can switch between oscillate and stationary.

Yes, it oscillates. However, the fan has limited positioning bending up and down. In my review, I told how I needed to dry my carpets but the fan couldn't be positioned downward to blow on the floor.

I also like the ambient noise suppression of a fan and I think this fan is good for that! BTY - I have had no problems with the operation of this fan.
