+1 for Lasko. They are the only brand that last for me. They are also easy to take apart to clean. I have clip fans, small tower oscillating and tall floor ones from them for the house. I have one hurricane fan left that still works but most of those I bought die within 6 mos. They are also more of a pain to take apart for cleaning.You need to check out the tower fans. I have a 42 inch Lasko hanging sideways just over the top of the canopy and it was finally the solution I was looking for. You could stand it upright and let it oscillate, but it blows hard, so I think it works best hanging. I got this idea from PJ Diaz. I also have an oscillating fan under the canopy.
