It only lasted 2 years and 3 months, not 5 to 10 years . The output and power was satisfactory for use in a small room Show details

Will NOT buy again – Bought this fan less then 12 months ago, and it started making a tapping noise so ha to take it off rotate, then all of a sudden it just STOPS, and the top of the fan where the motor is, was HOT. Show details

other same model for almost 2 years, and temperature display has been fairly accurate since I’ve owned it.

It's ok. Ordinary electric fan which looks generic. Made in China – This is my review for the Kambrook 30cm desk fan, Model KFA241, Arctic antique gunmetal finish. I've purchased this fan online from The Goodguys for… Read more

$89.

This desk fan needs to be assembled but that wasn't difficult for me to do. The Instruction Booklet was easy to follow for me.

This desk fan has manual controls for the ON, Fan speed selection of 3 x speeds and a Swing button for oscillation On and Off, and this is what I wanted in such a fan.

This is for Australian power rating 230-240Volts ~50Hz, 40 Watt.The outer packaging information reads "Only the best pass our test". "Tested for 2200 continuous hours".

The label underneath the motor head reads "Engineered in Australia by Kambrook". "Made in China to our exact specifications" and this is where I find such statements suspect. There's so many other brands with this very similar looking generic fan design available globally ( sometimes also referred to as a bench fan, only the flat round base varies and the colour or finish ). For example Kmart Anko 30cm Black metal Bench fan appears in almost identical design except that the round flat base seems different. Goldair also has a very similar 30cm desk fan where the round base seems different. There's also other brands with almost identical design and this raises questions for me. Is this a generic desk fan that Kambrook put their label on and had some variations of specifications done by the manufacturer and Kambrook ?

While in operation, to some even the low speed might sound a little loud but that sounded ok to me. On the second and third speed setting or high speeds this fan jerks slightly while oscillating although it's not an issue for me. The fan speed sound might be a little too loud for some. I wish that the low speed setting was much lower though. ( I hope that someday a manufacturer engineers a fan to include a very slow, quiet speed setting which simulates a very gentle breeze like my much older desk fan did ). To some the low speed setting on this Kambrook fan might be too fast.

The Gunmetal finish might scratch easily so be careful with your screwdriver while assembling this fan. The fan blades are also a little suspect to me because they appear to be made of bare tin i.e. they're not painted. This can be an issue later on because tin can corrode. With an $89 price tag, I would've preferred that the fan blades were manufactured with a coat of paint at least.

Although this generic desk fan design has also been available by other brands of manufacturers the reason I chose this Kambrook fan is that Kambrook states their products are "Durability Tested" ... "every Kambrook product is still built to the toughest durability standards and performance levels".  But I don't know if this desk fan is of the highest quality or longevity and I'm also having some doubts because this design is also available by other manufacturers; to me, it really does appear to be a generic desk fan manufactured in China with some specifications or variations changed by Kambrook. After reading their above product claims from Kambrook, I hope this Kambrook desk fan remains safe and trouble free.

This fan is ok, for now, I don't know if it's going to be trouble free or have longevity. However, I do think that the price of $89 is far too high for what it is i.e. other brands eg. Kmart Australia is advertising a very similar generic Anko fan for a competitive $39. That's $50 more for this Kambrook generic fan which I think is hard to justify; it better be to Kambrook's "durability" and "performance" claims.
