does this fan ocilate or move at all for example up or down? Or is it stationary?

Hello, The fan doesn't have a driven movement like a table fan. It manually can be pivoted on the stand. We own several Vornado product because of their quality. The concept of them is in how they move air. They shoot a long cone shaped tunnel of air which you can aim at the upper corner of a room (or ceiling) using the stationery pivot feature and air will gently and efficiently move thoughout the room. This fan is their most heavy duty and is powerful enough, without needing to be on high, to even push air up a staircase or across my basement. If you go to their website Vornado.com they explain it better than I can. BTW we own a 10 year old Vornado which we use daily! Hello, The fan doesn't have a driven movement like a table fan.

It is stationnary (can only go up or down) Note that after a year of (ab)use i can honestly say that it is reliable and powerful. This was a good buy! Hope this helps

It is stationnary (can only point up or down.) Note that after a year of (ab)use i can honestly say that it is reliable and powerful. This was a good buy!

Totally stationary. I mounted it high on the wall, pointed down to a workout area. Very smooth and vibration free on the wall.

Does not oscillate or move up or down, but it is very powerful and pushes air quite far.

I am vey pleased with this fan. The fan can be adjusted for vertical direction. It can be set for oscillate or stationary. I don't see a way to adjust the amount of oscillation; a way to decrease or increase the arc of the oscillation. I no longer have the instructions that came with the fan & I'm sorry I cannot look there for confirmation.

YES, it is an oscillating fan. It is a very nice looking small fan; easy to disassemble for cleaning; is plastic and will not rust; is top heavy, but it does not tip over; really is not as loud as some people claim and it moves a LOT of air!

@Jim J., yes it does tilt/swivel down as well as up. Once you get the downwards or upwards tilt to your liking, you can 'fix' it in that position by tightening the knobs on the sides, for a secure placement. Just fyi, for the amount of air that the fan pushes out, the noise level is minimal as well. Hope this answers your question.

It makes a bit of noise as the speed is increased with any fan. I guess it comes down to how quiet is quiet enough. The fan does a good job of cooling things down but does not oscillate.

The fan is stationary and the oscillation takes place inside the unit when you press the oscillation button.

Yes, it does tilt up/down quite a bit. And the positions stay where you set them. It is a powerful yet quiet for what it does fan. Easy to assemble. I have been using it for some time here in my garage in Florida, to cool off after yard work. Oh, and it can oscillate like an indecisive politician :)

No. This air circulator/ fan moved little to no air. I returned it and bought a Holmes heritage collection fan which I love.

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.

No, just on and off. I would say compared to most fans it's basically just on low but moves air around a room nicely.

It does sound like a box fan. I would say it doesn't sound like an oscillating fan.

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.

Yes it does. It's normal position is at 90 degrees and you can push the fan back to whatever angle you want.
954162
No, but you can adjust the angle. They do sell an oscillating version for a bit more. Great fan well made and very reliable

Yes it tilts all the way up or down. And is VERY well built. It can easily run ALL day. I run mine at least 16 to 18 hrs a day and I'm very confident this fan will last me for years.

yes it is oscillating. great fan . we have used for years, one in front on dash of diesel motor home, one in bedroom ... had to replace one after many years use.

It moves more than a standard box fan and it moves it quietly. On low air moves sufficiently, medium much more, and high really to much air movement.
