The mini had a button break after a year: I can only have it on the high setting if I tape the button down.
The full size fan still works, but its squeaks a lot, sometimes to the point that I have to smack it until it gets to a less painful pitch. I haven't gone thru the effort to disassemble it and lube everything but overall, I'm not too impressed with the quality. Online reviews at Costco.com in the past were also not very flattering.
There's a night mode in which the fan is supposed to spin down to be quieter over time, but I didn't have the patience to wait for how long it'd take until it did that. Would be interested in feedback on that feature.

These are cheap. They move a lot of air. They don't take up a lot of floor space. They'll last for at least 2 seasons. For $10 or less a summer they're a damn good deal.
The other thing I didn't like is the LEDs are pretty bright when you are sleeping it lights up the whole room at night. I'm thinking about breaking out the black electrical tape and taping over the lights.
Great deal for a throwaway fan.
