We're looking for tower fan models/brands specifically, but you can use this post to talk about whatever :)

I know this sounds silly, but I once needed a cheap fan to blow away the farts in my computer corner (no air circulation there). It was ~€25 I guess (should be the same in $)

It’s a rotary fan, you can tilt the head and it’s oscillating.

I moved, but I took it with me and now it circulates the air in the living room.

7 years later this thing still rocks!

Here’s the label. It’s pretty quiet and built sturdy, despite being a plastic-bomber.

Dare I inquire further?

These are waters only to be challenged by those who fear nothing but god himself.

I am arrogant enough to fear no gods. Try me >:)

My computer desk was stationed in a corner under the roof. Even if all windows and doors were open, even on a stormy day, this corner was completely calm. No breeze whatsoever. Which meant that when you farted, there was nowhere for the smell to go but up your nostrils.

Understandable. Have a good day.
