Clicked the link earlier this morning on my phone and saw $149, but just clicked it on my desktop and it's $199. Luckily my phone was still open to that page and added to cart no issues.

Does anyone have one of these and can speak to the airflow? Reading the reviews on Home Depot it seems some people are satisfied with the air flow, others say the CFM has got to be wrong and it doesn't put off hardly any air. I already have the Portable Jobsite fan which does put off a decent amount of air for what it is, but was hoping for something with a little more arse behind it for working during southern summers (or falls, or springs)... The CFM difference is quite a bit (600 something vs 4000) but again, people are claiming the CFM rating seems made up or wrong. I am considering getting this but I don't want to spend $150 on a fan that isn't going to put off any more air than the Jobsite one or a $20 box fan, for that matter. Anyone?

Mine comes in today and I bought it after watching a couple of videos and reading replies in the last thread. I also have the jobsite one, but wanted something bigger when I'm working in the garage.

Crazy, even added it to my cart and it's still $199. https://imgur.com/a/7CMbsYu Anyways we got a little cold front today, but this fan feels great. It's pretty quiet and I feel like that may be a factor on why some may say it doesn't move air. I put this at the end of my garage and I could feel it on the other end. The little debri like leaves and what not were moving around. I mainly wanted this when I'm working on a car, because let's face it if your not right in front of the jobsite one it doesn't help. I'd be interested how this will feel at one of my son's games.

Yeah, there's no comparison between the drum fan and the jobsite fan. This is just a guess, but I'd say some of the reviewers saying this drum fan doesn't move air might be confusing volume vs. velocity of air being moved. And the quietness factor might be a subjective factor in some of those negative reviews.
It's been a while since I've checked, but I think the jobsite fan has a higher air velocity rating than the drum fan. But that's probably measured a few inches away from each fan. Once you move the measurement farther away, the drum fan would take over.

$150 delivered for me, $135 + tax with Military

I have the jobsite fan and its great, sometimes having a 2nd fan would be better to direct airflow or have additional coverage.

I have a ton of batteries and like the fact its hybrid so I picked it up, can come back with a direct comparison between them after it gets delivered.

Shows as the regular $199 price again. Maybe wait until BF for anyone who missed out.
