Great fan. This is great for drying floors and when tipped back as a mover of air in a room. These can be daisy chained to several units to get across large floors.

The wall is anonymous without standing quality I am sad to say Stanley blower was flimsy I needed to return it spent a couple of extra bucks and I got this solid piece that works phenomenally do yourself a favor spend the extra 20 bucks skip the Stanley by Dewalt

I bought it for my work, I mop a building full of workers all the time and this helped me today to dry the floor faster! I really loved it, thank you

The DeWalt DXAM-2260 blower works exactly as described, My basement had flooded, and after sweeping and vacuuming the water on the floor, I used it to blow air under the bamboo strip flooring. Within one week there were no signs of moisture or wet spots, and a month later, no evidence of mold. The alternative would have been to lift and dry or replace the floor so the investment was worthwhile. I should add that after running continuously for a week, the motor was still cool to the touch. Highly recommended.

It moves a lot of air. 600 CFM advertised. This is a good compromise between more powerful and expensive commercial grade fans and lower end 'designed to a price point' floor fans. The ergonomics are great. Even with gloves, the large handle is easily grabbed and once in your hand, the fan is balanced and easy to move. The fan weighs in at exactly 10 pounds according to my uncalibrated scale. No switch wobble and the flush fit and smooth movement through a 3 speed range has a confidence inspiring feel. No concern about the switch failing unlike a similar but less expensive 350 CFM floor fan I use. The power cord doesn't have an external stress relief but there's no wobble and feels tight. As secure as the connection feels and given the fat and sturdy power cord, it may be that a conventional stress relief isn't needed. There's almost certainly something behind the housing to lock the power cord firmly in place. The plastics used for the housing are semi-soft which is good for impact resistance. Another fan I use is hard plastic and probably wouldn't stand up to a drop onto a concrete or a ceramic tiled surface without taking damage. There are three bump stops which allow for a range of movement starting with parallel relative to the floor, 45 degrees upward and then 90 degrees upward and aimed directly at a ceiling. The built in stand has an 'infinite' range of movement across about 190 degrees. This allows for further and more precise aiming. This is relatively quiet for a fan of this type but far from quiet in absolute terms. No whine, buzz or rattles. Fans of this type are generally much louder than most conventional household, non-industrial fans. The upside is that fans of this type allow for precision aiming and high air flow in hard to reach places. It's relatively power efficient for a fan of this type but less so than bladed fans I have experience with. This consumes 141 watts at low, 164 at medium and 181 on high according to a kill-a-watt. By comparison, a large floor standing Vornado I use consumes 41, 46 and 69 watts at low, medium and high. I also have a commercial-grade 2000 CFM floor fan of the same design as this DeWalt. It's an excellent fan but consumes a lot of power - 347 watts at low, 364 at medium and 422 at high and is loud even at it's lowest setting. It's a tool for cleaning up after a major event or for floating a carpet, not a fan intended for regular use in a residential environment. In this respect and at an advertised 600 CFM, the DeWalt is a very good compromise. Perhaps the most important design feature is that it can be taken apart without much trouble. Cleaning fans has to be done from time to time to keep them performing well and to maximize their life cycle. DeWalt definitely took this into consideration. Two other similar floor fan/carpet dryer fans I use do not make this easy. The DeWalt will do everything you need a residential floor fan/carpet dryer to do in most circumstances. Quick drying of mopped floors, high speed dissipation of household cleaning chemical fumes, blowing out a kitchen, airing out closets, car interiors, furniture drying after a steam cleaning, modest plumbing mishaps and so on. The possibilities are almost endless. This type of fan uses a more directed and powerful air stream than conventional bladed fans so in many cases, it will do what you want much faster and with more precision than conventional bladed fans. I've been a fan of DeWalt tools and products for years - a lot value for the money, very reliable products in my experience. The same solid design, manufacturing and quality control I've come to expect with other DeWalt products continues with this fan. Too soon to talk about long term reliability but so far, so good. If it's anything like other products from this company, it should last many years.
