Why we love this deal

The summer sun is something we always look forward to, but the summer heat? Not so much. Although it’s more than nice to have such warm days after a frigid winter, sometimes that heat gets to be a bit too intense, so much so that leaving your house is a risky venture. For some, a simple crank of the air conditioner can quickly cool down your home and serve as a sanctuary from the outdoor heat wave, but not everyone has access to AC.When the temperature cranks up you need an alternative like an air cooler or fan, and lucky for shoppers prepping ahead, the Goosiay Oscillating Fan is on sale for 83% off.

Instead of paying the original price of $280, you can get the 16-inch tall oscillating fan for just $48 during a Walmart Flash deal. But hurry — as a Flash deal this sale is only going on for a limited time.

With any sort of cooling contraption, you typically care more about how it works than what it looks like, but luckily, this fan has a sleek design and a powerful cooling effect. Standing 16 inches tall, this fan “combines high-velocity performance with a modern aesthetic.” The fan has a metal grille fan attached to the top and sits on a glossy, sleek stand with a sturdy base to keep it upright and secure. 

The five-blade fan, which operates at a quiet volume of 45 dB — equivalent to the hum of a refrigerator — blowing cold air at a variety of speeds. Operated via remote or by hand via the control panel on the stand, you can set the fan to blow at three different speeds depending on how much power you want. The freestanding unit, which uses a powerful 1500 cubic feet per minute (CPM) motor, can also be set to one of three modes: soft sleep, natural living, or high-power cool. The first is fairly self-explanatory, the second is for light, daily activity, and the third is ideal for cooling off while you’re working out or moving around a lot and working up a sweat. 

The display has an eight-second auto-off programming, which means once you’ve stepped away from adjusting it, the buttons will stop glowing. This is perfect for situations where you’ll be using it while you’re sleeping and don’t want any sort of light interrupting that. The fan also has a one to 10-hour timer feature, meaning you can set the fan for any number of hours between that and once it reaches the set point, the fan will automatically turn off.

Perfect for use in a bedroom, living area, gym, or office, this quiet fan is perfect for keeping you and your space cool without jacking up your electric prices. As an oscillating fan, the fan moves side to side, allowing for air to flow more freely and better circulate. 

Details to knowDimensions: The standing fan is 16 inches tall. Features: The fan has three fan speeds and three different modes. Sleep friendly: Operating at just 45 dB, the fan is quiet enough to use while sleeping without interruption.

Although assembly is required, shoppers say it’s very easy to put together, ready to go in about 15 minutes. “This fan is the answer to a hot kitchen or the laundry room that is too stuffy,” one shopper said. It emits a powerful breeze that’s not overly loud or overwhelming but effectively cools a room. You can see a difference in the three fan speeds, with shoppers noting that the top speed is impressively strong. It’s nice and quiet, and the included remote makes for easy operation.
