Edit: I received the 5 speed, 3 oscillation angle model. Also the delivery eta was 2 weeks and it got here in 2 days.
The only function missing from this fan is a timer, so I don't have to remember to turn it off. It's so quiet that you often forget that it's even on.

Does Amazon really think consumers can't see the same data they're using with our own eyes?
after wasting money on brands that stopped working or had various defects, two years ago, I also switched to DREO brand. 100% satisfied with the quality and performance. Some of their fan features seem gimicky so get their mid tier fan. A lot of people aren't aware, it's a DC brushless motor, it just quietly runs. log into Costco, it was on sale a couple of weeks ago.
I don't think there is a 3-speed model, despite comments to the contrary. The model number for both the "3-speed" and "5-speed" listings are the same. I think it's just a mistake, since it has 3 oscillation settings.
There's a few features that make this fan unique. If you don't need them, the Dreo TurboPoly from Costco folks have mentioned sounds good. Otherwise people are describing different devices for different needs.
I don't find another app to be tempting, but the remote on the Shark is handy and magnetically attaches to the back of the fan so you don't lose it.
The Flexbreeze also can run on battery. Nice if you live somewhere with frequent power outages. If you don't, battery won't be as useful unless you plan on carrying it into the backyard a lot.
The way it disassembles/converts into a table fan are nice bonuses. It also makes it easy to store once summer is over.
I keep the one in my office on "3", the middle speed, and I get a nice breeze from about 7-8 feet away.
Their ad copy may claim that they have like 70 or 100 feet of "reach", but these are like 10" fans (both the FlexBreeze and TurboPoly) for quietly circulating air/providing a breeze/complementing a/c. If you have large rooms, won't be sitting relatively near them, or they're your primary source of cooling, you might want to invest in something larger, like 15-20". But 900-1000 CFM on max is totally normal for something this size.

hoping for a reply back from Woot since regular shipping is a little tricker since there's an internal battery in this thing and it doesn't qualify for a self-service return..
