When i got this fan and was putting it togther i was noticing that all of the parts were plastic and that the fan was cheeply made. When i turned the fan on i was very dissapointed because it did not move hardley any air, I thought that it might be becaust of how small it is. But i have a 12in table fan (that is the same size) and it moves twice as much air. I have another windmere fan and it doesnt move hardley any air either.
