Lasko Wind Curve 42" Tower Fan review

The Wind Curve is one of Lasko's best-known tower fans, and it still covers the basics: 3 speeds, 60 degree oscillation, a programmable timer, a remote and a Night Mode that dims the lights and lowers the speed. Lasko rates airflow at up to 262 CFM, almost the same as the EcoQuiet. The problem for a quiet list is the noise data Lasko publishes itself: 39 dBa on low and 55.4 dBa on high, against 23 and 46 dBa for the EcoQuiet at the same $89.99 price when we checked. The Wind Curve also has fewer speeds and a 1-year warranty instead of 2. It remains a reasonable choice if you prefer its curved design or find it on sale, and an ionizer version is sold under a separate listing. For most people who care about noise, the EcoQuiet is the better buy from the same maker.

Who it is for

Buyers who want a familiar tower fan with Night Mode and a remote and can accept more noise than the DC models.
